Chapter 499 Midnight Revelations
Jean wouldn’t be calling in the middle of the night unless he’d found something important
Eliza set down her fork and quickly answered. “Hello?”
“Ms. Eliza? It’s Jean! The school has released a photo of Emilia’s suicide note, and I noticed something off!
Eliza shot up from her chair. “What’s wrong with it?”
“Claire University’s medical school had always refused to make the note public, but now they’ve posted in online. I was her assistant and knew her writing habits–she always used punctuation, but this note has none, and even the symbols are deliberately wrong. That’s not her style at all! The handwriting matches, but I think she left this inconsistency as a clue. She didn’t write this willingly!”
Jean had shared the evidence as soon as he spotted it. Eliza immediately told Nolan.
With proof the note was suspect, they could push the story further online. Nolan understood and quickly ordered his people to spread the news. If the public seized on it, the medical school’s statement would backfire.
Soon, the story was everywhere. Jean even revealed his identity, posting photos of himself with Emilia at school events and logs from his time as her assistant.
To protect him, Eliza had Nolan assign security to his side.
Jean’s revelation reignited the furor over Emilia and Ethan’s deaths. The medical school’s only hope of survival was to publish all student research reports–but that meant their secrets would be exposed.
“Felix, we’re trapped… please, think of something. We’re out of options!” the university president pleaded. If things continued, not only would he lose his position, but the school itself–and even Claire University might collapse, especially with the Foster family’s deep ties to it.
Felix kept his composure. Whoever was behind this had clearly set a huge trap. “Fake the data.”
“But if it’s exposed-”
“Then make sure it isn’t. Or is your career over already?”
The president, sweating heavily, had no choice but to comply. His people quickly forged research results and uploaded irrelevant papers online. Jean instantly recognized them as fakes–Ethan’s real research had been on entirely different topics. But before he could post, his accounts were mysteriously banned.
“These are obviously fake!” Jean fumed. “Ethan was Emilia’s boyfriend–I’ve seen his work. This isn’t his research at all!”
In a café, Eliza raised an eyebrow. “So they’re fabricating everything.” It was clear they were desperate. If the graduate students‘ projects were all suspect, the real files had to be hidden somewhere.
“Since the research was on viruses and cell regeneration, we should be able to find the orig
Eliza said.
“I’ll handle it,” Nolan replied. “I’ll find the originals.”
“I doubt it’ll be that simple. The Fosters will hide them well.” Without the originals, there’d be no proof.
As the scandal grew, the Foster family also began to feel the heat.

In his office, Henry studied the ring on his desk. “The stock marker’s unstable, his assistant el Wedd focus on the medical school’s bad press. This ring.
The assistant didn’t understand–Henry knew the ring was fake, so why had he paid eighty million for it
“Has my father called yet?” Henry asked.
Just then, a junior assistant walked into the room.
