Moreover, all the evidence presented in those materials is real. According to David Thompson, the municipal party secretary was furious when he received the news, summoned the head of the education bureau for a severe scolding, and ordered the public security department to intervene and investigate the matter.

A mere director of academic affairs actually embezzled several million; this is already extremely serious.

Yesterday, the school's director of academic affairs was already taken into custody by the police who rushed to their business trip location.

For the director of academic affairs to have reached this position, he naturally had someone backing him in the education bureau. But with such a major incident, those above him no longer dared to protect him, and even whether he could save himself was uncertain—if things went badly, he might even be placed under double designation.

Everything happened just as Michael Bolton had predicted: the The Brooks Family fell, and he was safe.

“It’s the evidence of The Brooks Family’s embezzlement!” Olivia Reed said with unusual certainty. She recalled those seemingly unrelated words she saw on Michael Bolton’s blank paper a few days ago. At the time, she didn’t know what they meant, but thinking about it now, wasn’t it exactly the sequence of events leading to the The Brooks Family’s downfall?

Michael Bolton’s expression froze for a moment. How did she know there were materials reporting the The Brooks Family?

“So it really was you!” Olivia Reed said, her red lips slightly parted, a flash of astonishment in her eyes. Suddenly, she thought of a terrifying possibility: the downfall of the The Brooks Family was orchestrated by the seemingly harmless young man in front of her. If that was the case, it was truly hard to believe.

“Hey, beautiful, don’t look at me like that. I know I’m handsome, but if you look at me like this, it puts me in a tough spot!” Michael Bolton immediately put on a roguish grin and teased.

“Pfft!” Olivia Reed spat lightly, suddenly realizing she was too close to Michael Bolton. Instantly, her snow-white, art-like neck flushed red. She turned her head away, as if nothing had happened.

Seeing Olivia Reed turn away, Michael Bolton put away his smile, a trace of doubt flashing through his mind. How did Olivia Reed know about those materials? It seemed she had known for a while, not as if she had just heard about it.

Soon, everyone realized that the biggest beneficiary of the The Brooks Family’s downfall was probably Michael Bolton. At the very least, after the The Brooks Family fell, no one would give him trouble anymore. Not to mention being expelled—he probably wouldn’t even be disciplined!

When Emily Carter heard the news, she breathed a sigh of relief, pushed up her thick glasses, and for some reason, thought of Michael Bolton. An unbelievable thought popped into her mind: this was all done by Michael Bolton!

Although she knew the idea was absurd, Emily Carter just couldn’t suppress it. These past few days, she had worried every day about whether Michael Bolton would be expelled. Unconsciously, caring about Michael Bolton’s affairs had become a habit.

But Michael Bolton always comforted her with a cheerful smile, saying it was fine, that the The Brooks Family wouldn’t last much longer, and that he would be okay!

That time, Michael Bolton’s confident look was firmly imprinted in her mind, impossible to forget. Now, upon hearing of the The Brooks Family’s downfall, the first person she thought of was Michael Bolton. Thinking that Michael Bolton would be fine from now on, she finally relaxed.

Thinking of Michael Bolton’s somewhat handsome face in the sunlight, for some reason, Emily Carter felt something different for the first time.

“Mom says you should find a reliable man for a boyfriend, just like Dad! Michael Bolton seems pretty reliable too!” For some reason, such a ridiculous thought popped up in Emily Carter’s heart, but she quickly brushed it away and buried herself in her studies. Yet the blush on her snow-white cheeks just wouldn’t fade.

Now that things had come to this point, Michael Bolton finally breathed a sigh of relief. Although everything was under his control, as the saying goes, “Man proposes, God disposes.” Before the dust settles, anything can happen!

“Michael Bolton, the homeroom teacher is looking for you!” At this moment, the new class monitor Sophia Brooks walked in from outside and said to Michael Bolton.

Due to Jason Bolton’s disappointing performance ten days ago, his prestige in the class plummeted, and he could no longer continue as class monitor. The homeroom teacher Sarah Miller took the opportunity to replace him with the vice monitor, Sophia Brooks, as the new class monitor.

“Got it!” Michael Bolton nodded. What did the homeroom teacher want with him this time?

When Michael Bolton arrived at the office, he saw the homeroom teacher Sarah Miller talking with a middle-aged man in a suit.

“Michael Bolton, you’re here. This is Manager Reed from Rolling Stone Company!” Sarah Miller introduced.

Rolling Stone Records!

Michael Bolton felt a bit excited—had his demo tape finally received a response?

“Mr. Zhang, you’re truly young and promising!” The middle-aged man looked at Michael Bolton in some surprise. Although he could tell from the demo that Michael Bolton was young, seeing him in person was still unexpected. To be able to write such songs at such a young age—truly talented!

“Hello, I’m the general manager of Rolling Stone’s Beijing branch. My surname is Lin, Helen Reed!” The middle-aged man reached out to shake hands with Michael Bolton.

“Hello, I’m Michael Bolton!” Michael Bolton replied calmly, adopting the businesslike demeanor he had honed in his previous life. “I don’t think this is the right place for our discussion. How about we find somewhere else?”
