I felt like I was about to lose control, but I couldn''t bring myself to curse at Felicia.


    Even though she still didn''t believe me, she was willing to share the burden of the 113 thousand dors debt with me. For that alone, I couldn''t bring myself to curse


    her.


    "Felicia, just go. We''re done for today. Don''te looking for me again, and I won''t look for you," I said coldly.


    I pulled out my phone and blocked her number.


    Felicia cried, pleading, "No, William! Why are you doing this to me? I''m doing this for your sake! I really care about you, and I''m willing to share the burden..."


    "Enough! Just leave, okay?" I said.


    Since she didn''t move, I decided to leave first.


    She chased after me in her high heels, trying to grab my arm, but I shoved her away.


    Earlier that day, I had expressed to her that I wanted a wife who trusted and appreciated me. Yet, by the evening, she had already acted in a way thatpletely contradicted that.


    "William, don''t leave me!" she pleaded desperately.


    I ignored her pleas. All I wanted was to leave.


    Eventually, she tripped and fell, but I didn''t look back. That was the final nail in the coffin of our rtionship.


    When I returned to my dorm, I took a shower, climbed into bed and called n to exin everything in detail.


    "This is outrageous, Mr. White!" he said angrily. "This is a serious matter! I must report it to Mr. White Senior."


    "That''s not necessary," I replied firmly.


    "It is, Mr. White. This could seriously harm your reputation. Even without evidence, the police can still bring you in for questioning. If things escte, you could face serious consequences!"


    I was taken aback. "What? What kind of times are we living in? Are they really going to resort to torturing me?"


    "We''re in aw-abiding society, so physical torture isn''t an option anymore," he exined. "Yet, modern psychological interrogation methods can be much worse."


    I fell silent.


    I thought handing the matter over to n would be enough. He could help me sue those who ndered me, and the police would handle the investigation.


    However, as the prime suspect, I was likely to be the first one questioned and face intense mental pressure.


    This was far moreplicated than I had expected.


    "Alright," I said with a sigh. "Inform my dad. Focus on working with the school and the police to find the real thief. Put the defamationwsuit on hold for now."


    When they finally caught the thief, I swore I would give him a good beating to vent my anger.


    "Okay, Mr. White," said n. He hung up and immediately began handling the matter.


    I nced at the time. It was already past 10:00 pm, so I sent him five thousand dors as a thank-you for his extra efforts.


    He epted it without hesitation and replied, "Thank you, Mr. White."


    Not long after, Matthew and the others returned to the dorm.


    The moment they walked in, I sat up in bed. I had been waiting for them.


    They looked over at me as soon as they entered. We exchanged tired, resigned smiles.


    "You guys are something else," I said, shaking my head. "Even in a situation like that, you still spoke up for me. Aren''t you afraid I might actually be the thief?"


    Benjamin snorted. "I''d rather believe the money fell from the sky than believe you stole it."
