RedNovelChapter 189 Chapter 189: The audience gasped in disbelief, the surprise rippling through the crowd like waves across the ocean.
The students and professors of Zhecrora University were equally stunned. They knew Khloe's medicine was revolutionary - her work was unparalleled. While Eric's project had been impressive, it didn't seem like it should have outshone Khloe's to earn first place.
Eric's parents, however, remained composed. This competition was a critical milestone for Eric's future within the family business, and they had already taken steps to ensure their son's success.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe Watson family held enough sway that, within certain boundaries, they could influence even the outcomes at Zhecrora University.
As the murmurs of confusion swept through the crowd, Lawson stepped forward to address the room, his voice steady. "Letexplain. This competition evaluated not just the innovation and breakthroughs of each medicine but also their potential for widespread application. Khloe Evans's AIDS medication is a groundbreaking achievement, earning a naturally high score for innovation. However, further trials are needed to establish its broader applicability. On the other hand, Eric Watson's new diabetes injection method shows excellent adaptability, earning full marks in that area. Both of them have excelled in their respective fields, which is why we have a tie for first place." Lawson's words seemed to calm the crowd's growing doubts as the explanation settled in.
At that moment, Khloe's voice sliced through the silence, icy and unyielding.
"Professor Gray, Eric's drug is a copy. He doesn't deserve first place.” Khloe's words landed like a bombshell in the otherwise hushed auditorium, instantly reigniting the simmering tension. Every pair of eyes snapped towards Eric.
To everyone's surprise, it wasn't Eric who made the first move. It was Sloane, who shot to her feet as if she had been burned, her voice trembling with anger. "Khloe, do you have no shame? Just because you've had ssuccess, you think you're better than everyone else? Eric is brilliant; he couldn't possibly plagiarize. You're just attacking him because he's with me. You're disgusting!" Khloe shot Sloane a frosty, unreadable look.
New chapters now on g@lSloane's outburst wasn't just defensive—it was desperate. She knew, deep down, that Eric's so-called achievements were built on lies. His work had been Khloe's.
In the exam lab, the instant Khloe saw the ingredients Eric had chosen, a cold realization hit her-Sloane had given him the idea, using her old research notes, left behind at the Evans family years ago.
Lawson, shaken but quickly regaining his composure, stepped forward. "Khloe, you can't just throw around accusations like that without evidence. What proof do you have?" Khloe spoke with cold clarity. "The ingredients Eric used are from my research, developed three years ago. I uploaded my concepts to my cloud drive, which has a timestamp to prove it. His formula and improvements are identical to mine!" The moment her words hit the air, the auditorium erupted into a frenzy of whispers and murmurs.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Cloud drive records as evidence? If that's true, Eric's work could really be plagiarized." "If that's the case, then Eric is nothing but unethical. This is straight-up academic fraud." The Watson family's faces hardened. Harold's expression darkened like a storm cloud, his eyes flashing with barely contained rage.
