His Smokescreen Is Now the Woman He Can’t Have Chapter 10

His sharp gaze swept across the room before finally landing on the pale-faced Isabelle.

Isabelle flinched as if struck. She scrambled to her feet and rushed over to the officer, her voice high and tight.

“Sir! I’m reporting Elara Vance for academic cheating!”

Caleb seemed to snap awake, his gaze fixed on Isabelle’s back.

“She can’t even keep up with basic physical training! She’s always on the verge of being kicked out!” Isabelle pointed at the terminal in Caleb’s hand, her voice shaking. “How could someone like that be first in the entire academy? It’s impossible! I demand a full investigation!”

The officer frowned. He didn’t glance at the screen, only at her, his expression cold.

“That’s absurd, Cadet Davenport.” His voice held no warmth. “Are you questioning the final ruling of the Honor Committee?”

Isabelle choked.

The officer continued, his voice low but carrying to every corner of the room. “The Honor Committee has completed its formal investigation into all accusations against Cadet Vance. The conclusion is clear: she committed no violation. On the contrary, she is the victim of a malicious attempt to frame her.”

He paused, his gaze sweeping over Caleb and every other speechless cadet in the room.

“As for her grades, the academic committee has repeatedly verified them, even administering an additional closed-book examination. There are no issues. This transcript is completely authentic.”

Finally, the officer looked back at Isabelle, his tone laced with undisguised contempt.

“Cadet Vance was intentionally concealing her true abilities due to certain family circumstances.”
