章 173: Coming Clean

Alicia looked at Grandmaster Reuben's reaction and subconsciously took a nervous gulp.

"Upon realizing the gravity of my sin, I immediately turned back and terminated my agreement with the two representatives of the Vanderford Institute. After that, I have decided to ask for you and Great Inventor Eli's apology."

"I was wrong. Headmaster, I am willing to accept the punishment you may impose to me." Alicia looked at Grandpa Ben with an apologetic and sincere look. 

"Hmmm.." Thinking deeply while brushing his long gray beard, Grandmaster Ben looked at Alicia and replied, "Young one, I commend you for turning back and choosing to right your wrongs."
