Chapter 447: Tto Change Tactics
“Yeah, the VC will probably just go along with it now. He already signed the letter, didn’t he? This is just
cleanup.”
They all watched with bated breath, expecting the Vice Chancellor to use Jana’s claims to save face and shut the
case. He turned to Nnenna with a neutral look.
“That's the reason. Do you understand now?” he asked, as if wrapping things up.
But Nnenna simply tilted her head and smiled, a calm, unnerving smile that caught many off guard.
“I understand, sir,” she said politely. “But... | have one question.”
The VC blinked. “What is it?”
She turned fully to Jana, her voice clear and steady, “Where is her evidence?”
Gasps rippled through the crowd like a dropped stone in water.
Jana stiffened.
“You've accusedof serious things,” Nnenna continued, still smiling. “Harassment. Seduction. Manipulation.
Surely, you must have sform of proof, right? Messages? Recordings? Witness statements? Anything?”
She paused for effect, then added softly, “If you can show us just one, I'll accept the charges willingly.”
The entire class leaned in, eyes darting between Jana and the VC. Then
“That's right!” Emily chimed in, stepping forward with fierce conviction. “She’s accusing her without any
evidence! We're not in a dictatorship. This is a university. Let her show sproof, real proof.”

The crowd scoffed. Seven laughed outright.
“Does the future queen of Riverum need to show evidence now?”
“Delusional. Just her saying it should be enough, right?”
“Please! Who in their right mind would lie about something like this if they're that connected?”
“She could probably get the VC fired if she wanted to.”
But just as the crowd began to nod in agreement with Jana’s unshakable authority, the Vice Chancellor's voice
cut through the noise, and silenced everyone.
His eyes narrowed slightly. He turned to Jana.
“Well, Miss Jana?” he asked with polite curiosity. “Do you have the evidence to support your claims? A matter this
serious... demands proof.”
The crowd froze.
Eyes widened.
Mouths dropped open.
Did the VC just, doubt her?
Jana blinked in disbelief. For a second, her mask slipped. What is wrong with this old man?! But she quickly
composed herself, forcing a gracious smile. If she pushed too hard now, it could backfire.
“The Year One students are my evidence,” she said sweetly, gesturing behind her. “They saw everything. The
seduction attempts, the behavior, the way she moves around male students. If you want evidence, they are it.”
Right on cue, one of her henchgirls stepped forward, chin raised proudly.
“We saw Nnenna trying to seduce Prince Carl, Prince Arthur, and even other male students!” she said, loud
enough for everyone to hear. “She was shameless. Princess Jana is telling the truth.”
“Speak for yourself, Stephanie,” Emily cut in, scoffing at the story these two were whipping up like ice cream,
her voice loud and clear.
The crowd fell silent again as tension rippled through the air.
“I'm in year one too, and | refuse to be part of this so called ‘evidence’ you're throwing around. | never saw
anything like that happen. And neither did these people.”
She pointed boldly to a group of first year students, sfrom noble families, others with backgrounds powerful
enough to stand up to Jana without trembling.
Their parents weren't as powerful as Riverum royal family, true, but they held enough weight that even the
crown prince should think twice before offending them over something that wasn’t a matter of life and death.
There was a moment of hesitation, but then...
“Emily is right!” a tall boy stepped forward with firm conviction. “None of us saw anything like that. And we were
there.”
A few gasps followed his statement. He looked over his shoulder, and to everyone's surprise, several other
students nodded and moved to stand behind him.
Girls and boys alike.
“We don’t want to be part of a lie just because someone powerful said so,” another girl added. “Justice matters.
And right now, this feels wrong.”
The classroom air shifted. Whispers turned into murmurs of doubt. A crack had formed in Jana’s flawless control
over the situation.
Even her loyal followers glanced around nervously.

“Stupid,” Oliver scoffed under his breath from his place deep within the crowd. He crossed his arms, eyes
narrowing at his classmates who had dared to go against Jana. “Acting righteous all of a sudden...” he muttered.
Meanwhile, Stephanie, the ever loyal henchgirl, was not having it.
Her sharp gaze swept across the brave first years standing against them. She tried to pressure them with
nothing but her eyes, like a lioness daring prey to move. But this time, the students didn’t flinch. Not even once.
Tch. So they wouldn't be scared into silence?
Fine. Tto change tactics.
She stepped forward with forced confidence and quickly addressed the VC. “Sir! This boy who's speaking up for
her, he’s clearly one of the many male students she’s already bewitched and seduced. That's just more proof.”
Gasps rippled again through the crowd.
“Yes, that’s more evidence!” Stephanie pressed on, her voice rising with urgency. “She’s been casting her charm
left and right, and now even these boys are blindly defending her. It only proves how dangerous she is!”
She pointed a tic finger at Nnenna, her voice dripping with righteous accusation.
“The fact that so many are under her influence should tell you everything! And majority rules, right? Most of us
have seen what Princess Jana said! This student is no good, please proceed with the punishment she deserves!”
For a moment, the crowd wavered again. Whispers of uncertainty echoed.
Was it true?
Had Nnenna truly seduced them all?
What about the girls supporting her? Did she seduce them too? That wasn’t possible after all.
The male student froze for a second, stunned by Stephanie’s words.
Seduced? By Nnenna?
His face twisted in disbelief. Why didn’t he know about it then? He had been watching her since the very first day
of class. Quiet. Sharp.
