Jean lifted her eyes slightly, staring straight at Winston without blinking, like she was trying to study every inch of him.

Winston, feeling the weight of her gaze, instinctively turned his head away-

Like she had just read his mind.

To be fair, he was a little worried about her because of those rumors spreading around school.

But that wasn’t something he was about to admit out loud.

“So, you came all the way over here,” Jean tilted her head slightly, her eyes bright, “just to have a little chat with me, Winston?”

The corners of Winston’s lips dipped a little. He stayed silent for a moment before finally asking, “Did you… really cheat?”

Deep down, he already knew–Jean probably didn’t cheat.

His sister had never cared much about anything. Especially not school.

Would someone who couldn’t care less about grades really go out of their way to cheat?

It didn’t add up.

That said, Jean had definitely changed lately. Her attitude was different. Maybe she’d suddenly decided to turn things around and improve her scores…

But no matter how you looked at it, Jean had no reason to cheat. Because-

Even if she didn’t take the placement test, the Ginger family could still pull strings to get her into Stellarford Academy’s high school.

So the test meant absolutely nothing to her.

Winston thought all this to himself, but still asked the question–just to find a way to open the

conversation.

Jean’s lips pulled into a faint pout. “Wow, even you think I cheated?”

“I don’t.” Winston shot back immediately.

His face was as cold and unreadable as ever, voice low but carrying that clean, sharp tone that was uniquely

his.

Was it that obvious?

To the watching crowd-

It looked like Winston was scolding Jean, and she was completely shaken by it.

Someone let out a quiet snicker. A few others couldn’t hold back and started laughing.

Sofia clenched her fists, unsure if she should step in or go find help—

She was genuinely afraid Winston might bully Jean…

Meanwhile-

“As long as you didn’t cheat,” Winston said, his tone cold and curt. His brows lifted slightly, his mouth twitching like he was holding back a smirk, “then I won’t be embarrassed.”

“What’s there to be embarrassed about? No one at school even knows we’re related, except the principal…” Jean replied matter–of–factly.

Winston froze.

He hadn’t expected his little sister to leave him completely speechless like that.

“Whatever the case,” Jean tugged the corner of her lips into a grin and flashed Winston a big smile, “I’ll take care of this mess myself… shouldn’t take too long, probably. Mm-”

Her eyes narrowed slightly, a shadow passing through them. “I’m going to wash every speck of filth they’ve thrown on me clean.”
