Looking over the document Aubrey had provided, Professor Rowan felt his shock deepen.

Now he finally understood why Aubrey hadn’t wanted to tear the mask off Bailey immediately, and why she’d been trying to pressure her sister into backing down quietly–this wasn’t just an academic assignment. It held enormous commercial value, enough to shake the entire northern wolf medicine world.
Under normal circumstances, only a handful of procwould have ever seen this

paper.
But now it was different. Bailey had stolen the work and submitted it to the university department, and with the commotion today, any direct comparison between the two sisters‘ work could lead to demands to make it public to prove who was telling the truth.
If that happened, a clever enough researcher could follow the clues in this partial formula and work out the rest. Aubrey’s trade secret would be lost. That was why she’d been avoiding a public confrontation–protecting herself as much as her work.
And as for the content… Professor Rowan had examined Bailey’s submission closely before. It matched exactly what Aubrey described: a derivative, a half–finished formula deliberately separated from the completed version. The distinction between the original and the derivative couldn’t be clearer.
Now there was no doubt about who was lying.
Bailey had never imagined that Aubrey had turned in a half–finished version on purpose. Even less could she have predicted that Aubrey/would expose her by producing the completed formula.
Hearing the gasps and derisive laughter ripple through the crowd, Bailey wanted the floor to open beneath her. Even the scandal over that last video hadn’t humiliated her this badly. At least then she could claim she’d been set up–but this time, she had accused Aubrey of trying to steal from her in front of everyone, and now Aubrey had slapped her down with undeniable proof. Her face burned red, and she wished she could simply faint.
“Professor Rowan, I had planned to submit the completed research to my mentor once it was fully refined,” Aubrey explained calmly. “The formula still has certain flaws, and I’m working to overcome them.”
Reluctantly, Professor Rowan returned her phone, his voice full of genuine admiration.
“You are an extraordinary talent in medical research. Compared to you, I still have much to learn.”
“Each field has its own experts, Professor Rowan. You’re too modest,” Aubrey replied with a

He gave a faint, bitter smile. Everyone knew Aubrey was a prodigy across every discipline- saying “each field has its own expert” was just a polite formality. But more than bitterness, his heart swelled with excitement. This breakthrough was too important; once perfected, it could benefit every wolf in the northern continent.
“You have my word,” he said seriously, “that I’ll keep this confidential. And I strongly suggest you file for a patent before taking on a mentor. This could be a landmark in the history of northern wolf medicine.”
Aubrey smiled faintly. “Thank you, Professor. I understand.”
The crowd, having just witnessed a drama, was full of different emotions.
“She’s a genius… she’s only eighteen, but her mind is incredible. I’ll never underestimate an omega again,” someone murmured in awe.
Another added with envy, “Yeah. If I could invent something like that, my father would adore me forever.”
“But her sister is ridiculous–stealing from Aubrey and then acting like Aubrey was the thief. Absolutely shameless.”
A girl from the high school division, who knew Bailey, spoke up. “I heard Bailey was guaranteed admission to this academy. Maybe she was afraid no mentor would take her in, so she stole Aubrey’s work…”
“Someone like that still got a guaranteed spot? I bet something shady went on. I’m going to the ethics office to report her–wouldn’t be surprised if all her papers were stolen.”
The whispers grew louder. Aubrey had just made a powerful impression, while Bailey’s reputation was being shredded beyond repair. Even if she wasn’t expelled, she’d never be able to hold her head up here again.
Watching her daughter become the target of so much scorn, Aurelia couldn’t stomach it any longer. She jabbed a finger at Aubrey, her voice shrill with fury.
“You ungrateful brat! All these years I’ve fed and clothed you, and this is how you treat your sister? How can you be so vicious? It’s just a half–finished formula–so what if you give it to your sister? Or is it that you can’t stand to see her do well, can’t stand that she found a good mentor? Well, congratulations! For the sake of one exam, you’ve ruined Bailey! Are you happy now?! ”
