When fate plays its hand

Chapter 0792

The post spanned ten pages and was packed with explosive revelations. The whistleblower was none other than Sophie’s own protégé, Joli

He had accused her of academic fraud, favoritism in admitting graduate students, accepting bribes while colluding with external companies, and having her niece Yasmine’s papers ghostwritten.

At the end of the post, there was a link to a PDF file. When opened, it revealed over 30 pages of detailed documentation outlining Sophie’s alleged wrongdoings, complete with hard evidence. The accusations included exploiting students, demanding gifts, and even psychological manipulation.

The most shocking revelation was her long–standing theft of Joli’s research work and her years–long coercion of Joli into ghostwriting for her niece, Yasmine. The evidence, presented with images and supporting documentation, left little room for doubt.

The Bedford College forum exploded with comments.

“My goodness, 30 pages of this? It’s nerve–wracking to even read. Can this all be true?”

“Too lazy to go through it all. Can someone sum it up?”

“Do you even need to ask? Dr. Xander’s guilty of academic fraud and mistreatment, the student reached his breaking point, and now he’s speaking out!”

“Wow! This started way back in Yasmine’s high school days? So her bonus points for college admissions and fast–track graduate entry were all rigged?”

“And they called her ‘genius girl‘? More like a fraud with connections!”

“If I’m not mistaken, Joli is Sophie’s protégé, right? It’s not every day you see a student so openly exposing their mentor. Either the student’s awful, or the professor deserved it.”

“Every word feels like it’s dripping with blood. As a fellow student treated like a tool by their advisor, I deeply empathize. But I lack the courage to do what Joli did. Still, I stand by him. If I can’t speak up, I’ll cheer for those who can!”

“Poor Joli. This is so tragic.”

“When I saw the part about Sophie making students do house chores, I was floored. She’s treating them like laborers?”

“Laborers deserve respect too!”

“I heard this Faculty of Bioinformatics big shot, Dr. Xander, was supposedly so impressive -tons of academic achievements and all. Turns out they were all stolen from students. Disgusting!”

“Hold on, though. Can a single PDF prove anything?”

“Who’s this apologist above me? Sophie’s PR team, maybe? The evidence is airtight. There’s no way to deny it!”

Even though it was winter break, the thread’s activity kept climbing. The lack of academic pressure meant plenty of idle students acting as fervent onlookers, hopping through the proverbial grapevine, eagerly awaiting the next juicy detail.

Naturally, the trio of gossip aficionados weren’t about to miss out.

At the Infinity Lab, Madison had spent her entire morning glued to her phone, devouring each new revelation. Her astonishment and commentary were nonstop.

“Wow! Joli’s got guts!

“No way! Sophie’s like the devil incarnate! How can anyone be this awful? I’m done reading, and I don’t even know what to believe anymore.

“Seriously, are there really advisors as nasty as Sophie out there? Thank God I picked Dr. Young.”

Between reading and ranting, Madison didn’t stop. Meanwhile, standing at the lab bench, Miranda looked up at her and asked, “You said Joli’s PDF is how many pages?”

“37,” Madison replied.

“He’s been preparing for this for a long time,” Miranda said with a sigh. “But I didn’t expect…”

“Didn’t expect what?” Madison asked, blinking

“I didn’t expect that out of all the paths available, he would choose the hardest one.‘
