Chapter 77 Kowtow to Me Then
Vanessa was puzzled, not understanding why the other party suddenly asked this question.
“Is there a problem?” she asked.
The police officer stood up and said, “Based on my investigation, there are only your footprints near your table, so besides yourself, no one else has touched your luggage.”
Vanessa was stunned for a few seconds and instinctively said, “How is that possible? There are no footprints. on the floor at all…
Halfway through her sentence, Vanessa’s eyes fell to the ground and suddenly stopped.
Yes, normally there would be no obvious footprints on the floor of the dormitory, but the current situation was different.
Since it was the last semester, they were all busy with internships and the dormitory had been left unoccupied for a long time. Therefore, a thick layer of dust had accumulated on the floor.
The dust on the floor was similar in color to the floor, so it was not obvious, but even if it was not obvious, the footprints left behind were particularly clear.
The police officer looked at her and said again, “There are marks from the wheels of your luggage here, and here are your footprints. I don’t think you’ve opened your luggage.”
Vanessa gritted her teeth, not expecting to make such a mistake.
She had originally planned to leave the bag in the dormitory, claiming that the bracelet was lost from the bag. However, she had to bring the bag to the classroom, so she could only say that she had put the bracelet in the luggage. Otherwise, if she had left the bracelet there here by itself, it would have been too deliberate.
“Vanessa, could you please explain to me how Maggie managed to get something from your bag without even getting close to it?”
A somewhat arrogant and assertive female voice rang out from the crowd. Mia had hurried over upon hearing the news.
Vanessa was momentarily speechless, never expecting things to turn out this way.
“1…
“Vanessa, what’s going on here?” The teacher frowned and spoke up.
“I have no idea who would want to steal a counterfeit. Do you think Maggie is stupid?” Mia sneered, lazily. eyeing Vanessa up and down, the implication in her words clear.
The strong pieces of evidence were enough to clear Maggie of suspicion.
Now, Vanessa found it difficult to explain herself.
“Sorry… I must have remembered wrong. I must have placed the bracelet in the drawer… Vanessa tried to explain, but her explanation at this moment seemed far–fetched to others.
“If you have wrongly accused Maggie, you should apologize to her and this matter will be over. The dean- spoke in a deep voice, probably also guessing that something fishy was behind this.
Whether it was Maggie or Vanessa, they were both promising students at the academy, so he did not want this matter to become too unsightly.
Maggie saniled upon hearing that and looked at Vanessa with hidden resentment in her expression.
Vanessa’s throat tightened, but under scrutiny, she could only barely maintain her composure and pretended to apologize, I’m sorry, Maggie. I’ve misunderstood you. I really don’t know how the bracelet ended up in your bag.”
“Apologize if you must, but spare us the unnecessary chatter, Mia impatiently interjected. There was a indescribable air of arrogance between her striking eyebrows that made it impossible to look away.

“I–I’m sorry, Maggie. Can you please forgive me?” Vanessa tightly gripped her fingers, her eyes reddening. She never expected her scheming to backfire.
Maggie smiled faintly and said in a calm voice, “You know how the bracelet ended up in my bag, Miss Brown. I’ve accepted your apology, and I only hope that you can turn over a new leaf and start afresh.”
Vanessa’s face alternated between pale and flushed at Maggie’s blunt words.
She had never anticipated the current situation, so she was momentarily speechless, unable to respond.
The leaders and police present had likely formed their own judgments about the situation.
However, since the incident occurred within the dormitory and lacked concrete evidence, it would. ultimately be left unresolved.
After the crowd dispersed and the other two roommates left, Maggie turned to the despondent Vanessa and said gently, “Is this about Yatria?”
In her previous life, Vanessa had gone to great lengths for that quota.
However, back then, their relationship was different, so her methods were naturally different as well.
Vanessa looked up
at her, still feigning innocence. “Maggie, I don’t understand what you talking about.”
With a lollipop in her mouth, Mia leaned against Maggie’s desk, chuckling. There was a hint of mockery in her eyes. It was as if she could not be bothered to speak.
Maggie curved her red lips and said gently, “It’s best not to understand, but rest assured, as long as I’m here, you won’t stand a chance.”
Her arrogance eyes.
stunned Vanessa again. Then, Vanessa clenched her fists tightly, a hint of resentment in her
The smile in Maggie’s eyes deepened as she walked up to Vanessa and said word by word, “Remember, I will take away everything you desire.”
“You! Maggie, you are too much!” Vanessa could not hold back her anger and spoke out in a rage.
Maggie’s almond eyes were cold and distant. She had to admit that Vanessa was much more cautious than Sierra. They were both equally two–faced, but Vanessa was indeed a real academic achiever.
Mia glanced at her lazily. She was dressed more seductively today. She wore a cropped black striped camisole with a super short skirt. The look in her eyes carried an innate sense of superiority and disdain.
“So what? Can’t handle it? Mia spoke coldly, a hint of indescribable arrogance in her casual demeanor.
Vanessa gritted her teeth. She could not understand why Maggie, who was always easy to deal with, had become like this.
“Let’s go.”
Without wasting any more time, Maggie called Mia to go out for dinner,
In the evening, Maggie had just returned home when she received a call from Nathael.
Looking at the particularly conspicuous note on the screen, Maggie had no intention of changing his
name back.
Her anger had not subsided and she was a person who held grudges.
She ignored him for two minutes. Finally, Maggie answered at the second call, “Who is this?”
Nathael was speechless.
After pausing for a moment, Nathael spoke gently, “Join me at the banquet on Sunday, I’ll have Alex come pick you up.
Maggie looked indifferent, lacking interest as she replied, “Mr. Harris, do you lack female companions?”
Nathael’s eyes deepened as he sensed the displeasure in her voice. So he set down the documents in his hand, walked to the floor–to–ceiling window, and said softly, “No, but I need you.”
Maggie pursed her lips. However, she could not stop herself from curving them slightly. Her tone softened. as she said, “No.”
After a moment of silence, Nathael spoke slowly, “Are you still angry?”
“Yes, I am.” Maggie was particularly straightforward. She was indeed angry. How dare this man spank her? She could not let this matter go!
“How could I not be angry?” Nathael could almost imagine her arrogant and dismissive demeanor at this moment. So, his Adam’s apple moved slightly, and his eyes darkened a bit.
Without hesitation, Maggie said, “Fine. Kowtow to me then.”
