“But how did you know about this? Not many people are aware that it’s connected to me.” The academic report hadn’t been officially released; it was only sent to certain departments and associations for review, Sierra didn’t respond to his question directly, but scoffed. “An opportunity? You call stealing someone else’s work an opportunity?”

“Sierra!”

Evan couldn’t hold back any longer and shouted, “I’ve been patient with you, but don’t push it; I haven’t stolen anything from anyone!”

Evan had his pride. He could tolerate Sierra’s poor treatment of him, but he couldn’t stand her accusing him of stealing someone else’s achievements.

Watching Evan’s indignam reaction, Sierra challenged him, “Then can you swear that all these ideas were entirely your own?”

She knew Evan well enough to know what tactics worked best with him. Sure enough, Evan’s brow furrowed deeply, and after a moment, he admitted, “Although I didn’t come up with those ideas alone, they have nothing to do with theft; we were jcollaborators.”

“Tell me, who is this collaborator?”

Sierra pressed him, noticing his particular concern over the matter.

“Why are you so interested in this?”

“Because your collaborator stole from me, Sierra articulated clearly. “What?”

Evan’s face went pale, and without thinking, he shook his head, “That’s impossible! Yaron is a PhD, he’s also extremely talented; how could he possibly steal from you, just a freshman!”

However, this trip wasn’t in vain; she had heard Yaron’s name from Evan’s own lips.

It was Yaron! Sierra felt both surprised and not surprised. Not surprised because she already knew Yaron’s character well enough to expect such actions from him.

She thought back to her encounters with Yaron since her release from jail, pinpointing a moment when he might have seen. her notes fall to the ground.

As Sierra was piecing her thoughts together, Evan spoke earnestly, “I don’t know where you got the idea that the publication I’m involved with has to do with you. I know you don’t like me, nor do you like the Xander family, because you feel we’ve overlooked you in the past. I admit that’s true. But that doesn’t give you a reason to falsely accuse me. Don’t let your hatred lead you astray.”

Evan’s earnest admonition almost made Sierra laugh; he actually thought she was fabricating this just to get back at him. Where did he get such confidence!

But he did remind her of something. Initially, Sierra had wanted to resolve this matter quickly, but now she wasn’t in a hurry. “The document hadn’t been published yet, and no one knew it was connected to Evan.

But once it was published with Evan’s name on it, and his professor appeared as the advisor, then she would tell everyone
