From Trash to Treasure: The Sinclair Family's Beloved Genius

Zack sat to the side, taking a statement, but Yuna Rhodes spent the entire time shirking responsibility.

SLAM—

He finally lost his patience, slamming the table as he shot to his feet. "You’re an adult! Don’t you know whether you did it or not?! The victim has been cursed out by countless people because of you! Thousands upon thousands of hateful comments online were all directed at her. Yesterday, the moment she stepped off campus, she was swarmed by a pack of reporters shoving cameras in her face, telling her to go die!"

"Did you ever think about the severity of the consequences when you made that post?"

Yuna Rhodes flinched and mumbled, "I didn’t do it on purpose. I never thought it would get this serious."

Hearing this, a vein bulged on Zack’s forehead. He opened his mouth to say something, but when he saw Yuna Rhodes’s head bowed with not a trace of remorse on her face, he knew that anything he said would be pointless.

’People like her don’t deserve sympathy or forgiveness.’

Chloe Sinclair, the victim, was being verbally assaulted by thousands, yet the real culprit was still getting away with it. Even with ironclad evidence, not only did she refuse to confess, but she didn’t feel the slightest bit of remorse.

"Let’s wrap this up."

Zack sighed and gathered his notes.

Yuna Rhodes’s heart clenched. She looked up in a panic. "I didn’t confess! You must have taken money from the Sinclair Family! Just wait until I get out of here, I’ll hire people to kill you."

Instantly, the expressions of both Zack and the officers monitoring from outside turned grim.

After a moment, Zack suddenly scoffed. "Are you aware that threatening a law enforcement officer also carries legal consequences?"

Yuna Rhodes shook her head, her face now completely blank. "I didn’t confess, it doesn’t... it doesn’t count..."

A smile touched Zack’s lips. "Didn’t you just confess with your own mouth a moment ago?"

With that, he glanced up at the surveillance camera on the ceiling.

Seeing this, Yuna Rhodes looked up as well, and her face instantly turned ashen.

’It’s over!’

She collapsed into the chair like a boneless heap, the light completely gone from her eyes.

Zack felt no sympathy as he walked straight out of the interrogation room.

However, the moment he stepped out, a colleague came running over in a panic.

Zack asked, "What’s wrong?"

His colleague said, "It’s bad. More negative news about the victim has just surfaced online."

Without a word, Zack pulled out his phone and saw a glaringly obvious trending topic leap out at him.

#Miss Sinclair Throws Her Weight Around: I Have Money, Do You?#

This topic was already in the top three on the trending list.

It even looked like it was about to hit number one.

He clicked on it and saw that the comment section had already exploded.

[Damn, why is this Chloe Sinclair person everywhere these past two days? Who the hell is she?]

[Let me fill you in: Chloe Sinclair is the adopted daughter of the Sinclair Family. She uses her rich dad’s influence to bully classmates and force them to transfer schools. She even conspired with the school to get her homeroom teacher fired, all because the teacher wouldn’t approve her class transfer. You can search for the topic "No. 1 High Teacher Laura Rhodes." Now, when reporters tried to interview her, she refused, threatened them with lawsuits, and said arrogant things like, "I have money. Do you?"]

[That vicious? And she’s the adopted daughter?]

[Chloe Sinclair in the video is so arrogant.]

But there were also plenty of more rational voices:

[Yeah, but... this is only half the video. Shouldn’t they release the full thing, no matter what?]

[Honestly, Chloe Sinclair didn’t do anything wrong? She was just leaving school and got randomly ambushed by reporters. What’s wrong with her refusing an interview?]

[Hang in there, OP! Chloe Sinclair clearly refused the interview, but the reporters kept pushing her. If that were me, I probably would have just started throwing punches. Why do I suddenly feel like Chloe Sinclair was actually being kind of gentle? Lol.]

[Holy shit, guys, check out the new tea!]
