“Are you admitting to having an inappropriate relationship with that magnate?”
Kennedy couldn’t remain silent any longer. “What inappropriate relationship? What are
you all being taught here? Mia’s relationship with Mr. Barrett is genuine and morally
upright!”
The students retorted, “Mr. Shaw, Mia has already confessed. Your clarification isn’t
required here. What kind of relationship between a man and a woman could be deemed
appropriate?”

doorway, his towering figure exuding authority.

the others in the
room.
A brief hush fell over the office as Timothy made his unexpected entrance.

falsely accused?”

my wife.”
As Timothy revealed this revelation, the entire room was left stunned.
The students who had previously interrogated Mia now appeared visibly unsettled. Who
could have thought that Mia was actually Mrs. Barrett?
Dana, standing nearby, wore a grim expression. She felt her legs weaken beneath her.

even afford to antagonize someone of such high status?

had been deceived.
At that moment, Kennedy stepped forward to intervene, stating, “You see, I told you it was

“Absolutely, Mr. Shaw needs to
apprehend the reporter. They’re too cunning, deliberately deceiving us like this.”

“I accept your apology. However, regarding my identity as Mrs. Barrett, I’d like to keep it
private for the time being. I hope you can respect my wish for confidentiality.”
“Don’t worry, we won’t disclose it to anyone.”

understanding, Mia. You may all go now.”
Dana attempted to leave discreetly but was intercepted by Timothy at the doorway.

stomachache all of a sudden. I need to use the restroom.”
Mia was perplexed by Timothy’s decision to stop Dana. Bowing his head, Timothy quietly
disclosed, “She’s the anonymous reporter.”
