She wanted Sienna and Dominic to put pressure on the principal–make sure the school followed the rules and issued real punishments.
Sienna just smiled, reached over, and gave Jean’s shoulder a reassuring pat. “Isn’t that a given? Don’t worry. I’ll make sure the principal stays in line.”
Two days later, Stellarford Academy posted the official disciplinary notice-
Sunny, as the main culprit, received the harshest punishment: immediate expulsion.
As for the rest of Class 3, all of them failed the placement exam and would have to repeat the year.
The school exploded.
The campus forum went wild.
“This punishment’s brutal! The school didn’t hold back at all.”
“Heard some insider gossip–apparently a bunch of parents came storming in, tried to block it. But the school stood firm. Didn’t budge an inch.”
“These aren’t just any parents either. They’re connected. And the school still told them to shove it? Must be afraid of public backlash.”
“Makes sense. This blew up too fast. There were like three trending tags—everyone online was waiting to see how the school would handle it. If they’d tried to sweep it under the rug, Stellarford’s reputation would’ve tanked.”
“Reputation means nothing. The ones trashing the school online? Please. Like any of them could even get in here. Just a bunch of nobodies yelling into the void.
“Exactly. Those parents are the ones who’ve built this place up with all their donations. And now they’re getting thrown under the bus for ‘public opinion?? Real short–sighted.”
“What are we doing here–defending cheaters? Actions have consequences.”
“Yeah, but these consequences are harsh. Failing the year? Come on.”
“It’s in the rulebook. They broke the rules. If it were Jean, you guys would be saying she got off easy.”
“Don’t bring up Jean. That’s just asking for another fight”
“I just don’t get it–why didn’t the principal give the parents any leeway? They could’ve made this go away quietly. Why go scorched earth?”
“Heard a bunch of kids from Class 3 are transferring out. That way they won’t have to repeat the year.”
“So they’re basically getting kicked out without saying the word ‘expelled.”
“No other school compares to Stellarford. That’s a downgrade and they know it.”

At the same time, the disc plinary announcement raced its way to Twitter’s trending list.
The whole internet cheered.
“Yes! A school that doesn’t sweep things under the rug.
“Honestly, still feels too soft… These kids should hold a press conference and apologize to Jean on camera.”
“So satisfying.”
“They deserved it.”
“Justice wins.”
“And it still doesn’t make up for what they did to Jean. Some of them deserve to rot.”
Jean saw the school’s announcement too, and it was about what she’d expected.
She could live with this outcome.
Just then, her phone buzzed.
Jolene.
“You free now?” came that familiar calm, clear voice through the speaker.
Jean smiled, her tone light. “Yeah. I’m heading out. See you at the spot.”
It was time to see Asher.
And of course, Jolene would go with her.
The cheating scandal was behind her.
Now it was time for the next target—
Getting Asher out of that hellhole.
