The Million-Dollar Heart

Chapter 71

Gabriel didn’t even have a chance to explain himself before the other party hung up the phone.

He stared at his phone, looking completely dumbstruck. He then turned to look at a cold Vivienne, speechless.

At that moment, the few staff members with Gabriel received phone calls too, their faces turning sour in an instant.

One of them walked up to Vivienne and apologized. “We’re really sorry. We screwed up and accused you of forgery without confirming the claims. Our boss just confirmed that your graduation certificate is legit. We’re really sorry for the trouble we’ve caused.”

Vivienne just stared at them, not saying a word.

The staff members were on edge, fearing Vivienne would hold them accountable. They quickly tried to explain, “Ms. Vivienne, we’re truly sorry. We had no idea Gabriel hadn’t double-checked your information. Now, our boss has decided to fire him. We’ll also compensate you for the inconvenience we’ve caused you. We hope you can forgive us.”

They really didn’t know Gabriel hadn’t double-checked Vivienne’s graduation certificate.

Before they came to the school, everyone was busy. Then Gabriel suddenly wanted them to investigate a case of diploma forgery. Given Gabriel’s rank, they had to follow his lead.

Before leaving, they specifically asked Gabriel if he had checked in the system, and he said

that he had.

However, they didn’t know Gabriel hadn’t checked at all.

The staff members were furious at this point, wishing they could beat Gabriel up. They were furious at Gabriel. Why did he have to get them into this?

Before Vivienne could reply, Mr. James walked over and snorted. “If apologies worked, what would we need cops for? You’ve disrupted the school’s meeting, falsely accused my student without evidence, and caused her a great deal of distress. We can’t accept your apology. Later, we’ll get our lawyers involved.”

Mr. James glanced at Gabriel and said coldly, “This is a serious mistake, and you’re just firing him? I’ll have my lawyer investigate thoroughly to see if he’s done anything else against the

rules.”

The staff members were in a pickle, but they knew it was pointless to try to defend themselves when Vivienne and everyone were already so angry.

Besides, Gabriel started this. They would have to report back to their boss, so they left with
