Chapter 259:
Harlee caught a few key pieces of information.
Adelina had stayed in place and swiftly smeared Harleeâs reputation. With just a few words, she had painted Harlee as a thoroughly disagreeable person: disrespectful, uneducated, ill-tempered, and insensitive. In just an hour, the negative labels attached to Harlee had multiplied.
Harleeâs lips twisted into a smirk.
âTimeâs up.
Adelina, are you prepared to go to jail?â
Adelina looked blank, her gaze lowered, lost in thought. She nervously pressed her nails into her palm. What did Harlee mean by that? Could it be that Harlee actually had evidence, and the recent bet was merely a ploy to lure her in? Her face flushed with rage, and her hands trembled, a clear indication of her extreme anxiety.
The crowd around them burst into activity. Some began uploading the footage they had captured to social media, while others started live streaming, focusing their cameras solely on Adelina.

Yet, only a few people picked up on this anomaly. The majority were captivated by the unfolding drama, so these insightful comments were quickly lost in the noise.
Adelina nervously pulled out her phone to check the online sentiment.
After seeing that public opinion favored her, she let out a sigh of relief.
Confronted by Harleeâs steady gaze, she declared confidently, âIs that so? But it seems like youâre the one who might end up in jail, not me.â
Harlee didnât react with anger. Instead, she smiled and raised her eyebrows.
âIf youâre so sure about the online chatter, why donât you check your phone again?â
With a look of disdain, Adelina took out her phone again, but as she did, her expression slowly turned to shock, and her face began to tremble uncontrollably.
âHow can this be?â
Around them, others witnessed her reaction and quickly checked their own phones, only to be equally stunned.
Mechuiqueâs leading university had just released a statement recognizing Harlee as a distinguished alumnus, complete with her academic records, published papers, and graduation pictures. Simultaneously, the National Aerospace Agency confirmed Harleeâs role as a national aerospace mechanical engineer and announced that she had designed their latest system.
The release of these two pieces of compelling evidence sent shockwaves through the internet.
