The Double ( or More ?) Life of The Fake Heiress

Chapter 224
As Mr. Hammond finished speaking, Summer's eyes snapped open in disbelief,
as if she couldn't fathom such a development.
Colton was also stunned for a moment before snapping back to reality, frowning
as he said, “On what grounds are you cancelling my daughter's national
competition eligibility? She hasn't done anything wrong!”
Mr. Hammond let out a cold chuckle, “Why her eligibility is being cancelled is
something we all understand very well. If I were to pursue the matter of the
leaked competition materials, do you really think your daughter would get off with
just a cancellation?”
Putting aside the fact that Summer, as an up-and-coming starlet in the
entertainment industry, couldn't afford a scandal, the issue of the Education
Association leaking confidential competition materials, if made public, could force
even the national education authorities to step in and take action.
Colton suddenly felt a cold sweat drench his back.
“I accept the punishment.” Before Colton could speak, Summer, who had been
standing by, spoke up. Though she was uncomfortable with the situation, this
outcome was the best under the circumstances. Even if she continued in the
national competition, she would be just making up the numbers, so why should
she waste more time on it?
Colton glanced at his daughter and ultimately said nothing more.
Morgan, standing to the side, let out a self-deprecating laugh. He would probably
never be able to hold his head high in front of Mr. Hammond again.
After leaving the office, Summer walked Colton out of the school.
“Why haven't you ever mentioned Mirabella’s grades to me all this time?” Colton
asked heavily as they walked.
Summer pinched her hand and replied softly, “I'm not familiar with her.”
Colton stopped in his tracks and turned around with an expressionless face. “Do
you really take me for a fool?”
With things having escalated to this point, it would be foolish not to see the
underlying reasons if he hadn't lived these years in vain.
Summer met Colton’s dark eyes, and her face instantly paled. “..."
“Being so impatient, you'll hardly make it big.” Colton said coldly, dropping the
words as he left. She'd hardly make it big?
Summer watched her father’s retreating figure, with a slight twist on her lips. If it
hadn't been for Alden secretly sending the materials to Mirabella, would today’s
events even happen?
Around noon, Mirabella paid a visit to Mr. Hammond's office.
“Are you sure you want to keep up this guilty facade?” Mirabella sat in the chair,
somewhat amused as she looked at Mr. Hammond. He had been in this state for
a solid five minutes.
Mr. Hammond coughed and finally spoke, “It was I who brought you Into Parkside
High School, and yet it has led to you being slandered and doubted time and
again.”
Mirabella arched an eyebrow. Her hand casually rested on the arm of the chair.
“Excellence always breeds jealousy. There's no need for you to blame yourself.”
Mr. Hammond heared this, and his lips twitched. He fell silent for a moment and
then sighed lightly. “I haven't realized you had some history with the Gilbert
family.” He didn’t mention the more delicate matter of the Gilbert family’s adopted
daughter.
Mirabella pursed her lips. Her demeanor was nonchalant. She simply said, “My
last name is Davids now.”
With that statement, she distanced herself from any relation to the Gilbert family.
“No matter what, you've been wronged in this affair,” Mr. Hammond said with a
wry smile.
