He looked deeply at Sara and asked, "Did you write this yourself?"
If it was really written by the child himself, there was no need for her to steal Maria's thesis! Although that thesis was excellent, it must be better than this one.
Sara shook her head honestly. "I didn't write it myself."
Professor let out a small sigh of relief. If it was really written by this child, then he was truly a young genius. He was just about to ask Sara who had written it on her behalf when Sara spoke softly, "Actually, this topic was left behind by my mother. She was also a medical student, but later on, because of her poor health, she put it aside."
Professor gaze paused for a moment. "Where did your mother's research go to?"
Sara took out a pile of paper from her bag and said, "This is my mother's manuscript and my own."
Professor took it over and looked at it. He realized that Sara's mother had just mentioned this topic and had put it aside. The contents behind it were all Sara's own research. The manuscripts were very thick, and the handwriting in the beginning was even a child's. From this, it could be seen that Sara had already taken over the research since she was very young.
With a complicated expression in his eyes, he put down the paper in his hand and looked at Sara, "There's no one else here. Tell the professor honestly, what's going on with your thesis?"
Sara understood. As long as this thesis came out, everyone would not suspect that they had plagiarized it. Her gaze was a little cold as she said, "Maria was the one who turned the tables. After changing my thesis, she even tried to frame me."
Although Professor was not willing to believe Maria, an excellent student, it seemed to be the only explanation. He sighed and said, "I'll uphold justice for you. I'll call Maria over right away. Your things should be yours."
"You don't have to do that," Sara said. "What's wrong?" said Professor, "Is it because the professors wrongly accused you and you're angry? Sara, it's all our fault. I apologize to you, but don't act on impulse..."
Although Sara did not interact with Professor for a long time, she already understood that this old man truly cherished talent and that his appreciation of her was not fake. She smiled softly and said, "It's not like this. I'm not angry with you. I know that in that situation, if you can protect me, then I will have enough trust in me. Just hand over the thesis, there's no need to say anything else."
Professor said in confusion, "You want Maria to take your thesis to take part in the competition? Although it's not as brilliant as yours, it's still possible for her to win a place, you..."
He didn't make it clear. If Sara didn't write this thesis, it was possible for Maria to win the championship.
It was precisely because of this that he wondered why Sara was willing to hand over her research results to someone else.
Sara looked at Caroline's manuscript on the table and said in a mild voice, "If she wants to step on my throne, she has to take this honor."
Professor opened his mouth and finally nodded. He decided to respect Sara's choice and said, "That's it. You go back first. Don't take the discussion in school to heart. I don't know who is so big-mouthed that leaked the news..."
"It's not hard to guess," Sara said.
Indeed, it was not difficult to guess who would gain the benefit from judgment and who would be the mastermind behind the scenes.
Professor sighed, "I really didn't expect her to do such a thing... It really disappointed me."
Sara comforted Professor with a few words of comfort before leaving the office.
However, he didn't want to run into William, Johnny, and Maria on the Forest Path.
Sara didn't quite understand when the three of them became good friends, but she didn't want to see them at all. So she made a detour and walked away. William said, "Phew phew, don't you say hello to me and my sisters when you see them?"
Johnny covered her mouth and smiled. "I don't have the nerve to greet her. When I see my cousin, I must be ashamed that I can't even speak."
Sara suddenly stopped and looked back at the three men. Her voice was gentle and soft. "So Maria is your cousin." No wonder this morning, when he was harassing her, he even supported Maria.
Johnny puffed out her chest and said, "Yes, she is my cousin."
"No wonder," Sara said with a laugh. "You two are really of the same blood. It's like no ivory can come out of a dog's mouth."
"You!" Johnny's face immediately turned red with anger. "You should speak with more respect! You are just an illegitimate daughter. What qualifications do you have to scold me?"
Sara would never say such things in the past, and she wouldn't make a sound when she met these people. However, she didn't know if Hank was spoiling her, but she just couldn't bear it. She said to Johnny, "The tongue is always on me. I can say whatever I want. You're in charge of the affairs of heaven and earth, and you're in charge of other people's affairs? Your family is in charge of the capital, isn't it?"
"You!" Johnny pointed at Sara, unable to utter a single word.
Sara suddenly opened her hand and asked, "Your mother didn't teach you to behave like a uneducated girl?"
"Cousin!" The rims of Johnny's eyes turned red instantly. "She's bullying me!"
Maria, who had been watching the show, said, "Sara, Johnny just said a few words to you. Do you have to do that?"
"I only said a few words to her." Sara's face was full of innocence.
"..." Maria was choked by her words and said, "I was the one being plagiarized. As the victim, I didn't say anything, but you pretended to be pitiful... Sara, are you still shameless?"
At the mention of the thesis, Sara's face immediately turned cold. "Coincidentally, I also want to ask you, senior. Do you still want to be shameless?"
Johnny immediately said, "Sara, don't go too far! You stole my cousin's research results, and that's your attitude?! That's how your Third Lady taught you?! What a disgrace!"
Sara's eyes were cold. "Do you want to say it again?"
In fact, everyone already knew about what happened to the Martin family. Caroline was no longer a mistress who wanted to be the leader. She was a poor woman who had been cheated on. Now no one called Sara an illegitimate daughter. Johnny still said this, which was a typical example of smearing salt on the hearts of the people.
Looking at Sara's eyes, Johnny actually felt a little scared. But then she thought, Sara is now an orphan without parents. Why should I be afraid of her? So she immediately sneered and said, "So what if I say it again? Your mother is a shameless little... ah!!"
Before the last "three" could say anything, Johnny screamed. She covered her face and looked at Sara in disbelief. "You dare to hit me?!"
Sara took back his hand and said slowly, "You can complain to me anywhere you want. Even if I hit you, your family doesn't have to prepare to thank me..."
