Wich the truth Sally out the rest of the students were buzzing , itching to talk about what they'd just seen . Az Bethany's wave , they slowly broke off into groups and headed out Only Evelyn Hannah , Bethany , and a broken - down Alice stayed behind . Let's go talk in the office . Bethany said with a sigh . Alice could barely speak , her voice cracking as she begged . Professor Lloyd , please ... I'm begging you .... Bethany's expression turned cold . " If you don't come with me , she said , " then I'll just handle it myself . Alice panicked and struggled to her feet . But her limbs were so weak that it took her several tries just to barely stand . Evelyn and Hannah kept their distance , staying far away from her like she had the plague . Can you blame them ? She'd stuffed her mouth full of trash just moments ago ; the smell was awful . Professor Lloyd , take your time talking to Alice . Hannah and I are heading out . " Evelyn said . Before Bethany could respond . Evelyn grabbed Hannah and disappeared around the corner . Hannah looked annoyed . " Why'd we leave so soon ? I wanted to see her fall apart in that office ." Evelyn shrugged . " Don't make things harder for me . It was already bad enough that she tried to frame me . If she talks about familial ties , what am I supposed to do then ? " Hannah made a face . Would she really pull the family card ? Where was that when she was trying to ruin your life ? People . like her are disgusting " She paused , then turned curious . " Wait , what did you and Professor Lloyd even plan ? How'd you make Alice confess ? I thought the paper had already been found in class Evelyn just shook her head . What an idiot . " If the real paper had been found , why would we still need to follow Alice afterward ? " In other words , that paper was fake . Bethany hadn't actually found anything in the classroom . She'd picked a wrinkled class assignment from Hannah's desk , crumpled it up to make it look convincing , and pretended it was the missing thesis . Then she claimed she was giving the culprit one last chance . Of course . Alice would panic , wondering how the thesis ended up back in her bag and whether she had been caught . She'd go check the spot where she ditched it . And that was when they would follow her and catch her red - handed . Everything had gone exactly as Evelyn predicted . The thief was Alice . Hannah stood there , stunned , taking it all in . She stayed quiet for a while , then finally asked , " So ... you already knew it was Alice , didn't you ? That's why you were so calm the whole time . " Finally , she's catching on . Evelyn was about to say something nice when a frantic voice suddenly rang out . It was Seth 213 Chigga 13 de Even Hayes red . He's gorubly have the year 2 The plated me to dry wont seen it underlying tours .
