Chapter 557 I Am The Husband Of Avery
Hearing Yulissa''s usatory words, the candidates flew into an uproar.
The Certified Professional Constructor was a standardized national certificate, so cheating during the
test was strictly prohibited by national regtions. Those caught cheating not only received invalid
scores but were also barred from participating in any professional and technical personnel qualification
exams for two years.
Serious offenders might even spend time in jail!
The way the invigtors looked at Avery had changed.
Even the other candidates were giving Avery strange looks.
No one knew that the gorgeous pregnantdy would end up cheating during the exam!
The invigtors went to Avery and shot Yulissa a stern look. “What happened?”
Yulissa pointed at Avery and revealed, “Sir, I saw a crumpled piece of paper shoot out of her test paper
earlier andnd beneath her chair. She must''ve cheated during the test!”
Yulissa''s finger then moved to the bottom of Avery''s chair, and a crumpled piece of paper appeared in
everyone''s sight.
The invigtors furrowed their brows at the sight. One tall and skinny invigtor squatted down to pick
up the paper.
When the paper was spread open, Avery felt her heart racing as she was struck dumb.
That''s the summary Cayden prepared for me earlier! Why did it suddenly appear in the exam hall? I
remember cing my notes and phone in my bag.
Realization dawned upon Avery when she turned over her shoulder to see a malicious grin spreading
across Yulissa''s lips.
It was clear that Yulissa had brought the paper into the hall, but she couldn''t understand why Yulissa
would do this.
“Does this paper belong to you?” the invigtor asked Avery sternly.
The invigtors were startled to find that the crumpled paper contained information that closely
matched the exam questions, with some being identical to the actual test questions.
As the other candidates'' gazes fell upon Avery, she felt a prickling sensation run down her back.
It was natural for Avery to feel nervous. Even though she hadn''t cheated, she was bold enough to
admit, “Yes, it''s mine.”
The invigtors'' expressions turned dark. One spoke sternly. “After everyone leaves, please follow us
to the office!”
Panic filled Avery''s heart.
If I follow them to the office, I''ll definitely get investigated. I have nothing to hide, so I''m not afraid at all.
But regardless of the oue, people will surely gossip about me, and public opinion may not be in my
favor.
“Sir, I swear I didn''t cheat during the exam. The paper might be mine, but I kept it in my bag earlier. I
wasn''t the one who brought it into the exam hall. My friend can testify for me. Evangeline, we came into
the hall together, and you saw me putting the notes into my bag, right?” Avery shot Evangeline a
pleading look.
She appeared helpless, and tears threatened to spill from her eyes, eliciting sympathy from the others.
Many male candidates began whispering among themselves, admiring the pregnantdy''s
determination to take the exam despite her condition. They didn''t believe she would cheat.
The matter had nothing to do with her, so Evangeline didn''t want to get involved. However, Avery
seemed helpless and was on the verge of tears.
Her gaze swept over Avery''s branded maternity clothes as she recalled that Avery''s husband was
powerful enough to assign a driver to give her a ride to the exam hall.
At once, Evangeline made up her mind.
She raised her hand and dered, “Sir, Avery and I came into the exam hall together. Before that, we
ced our bags on a desk outside the hall. I can vouch that I saw Avery keeping her phone and notes
in her bag.”
Yulissa scowled unhappily when she heard Evangeline''s words.
She thought her n was foolproof and didn''t expect someone to botch her n.
Furious, she dered, “Hey, if Avery kept the notes in her bag, why did this one appear under her
chair? Perhaps she has a lot of notes, so you saw her putting the rest of her notes into her bag. When
you weren''t noticing, she might''ve slipped one out!”
This time, Evangeline said nothing.
She did see Yulissa tossing the paper underneath Avery''s chair but didn''t want to reveal the truth.
She didn''t want to get dragged into the mess as there was a possibility the matter wouldn''t get handled
properly.
Both invigtors shared a look. They couldn''t possibly remain in a stalemate in the hall and thus
continued collecting the answer sheets.
Cheating was a serious offense, so they allowed the other candidates to leave while Avery and Yulissa
were told to stay behind.
Avery noticed her answer sheet was ced on the very top with a huge “X” red mark on it.
Despite having prepared thoroughly for the test, she found herself wrongly used of cheating.
Yulissa was standing right beside her, a mocking smile ying on her lips.
Avery shut her eyes, determined not to let her tears flow down her cheeks.
Before the invigtors brought Avery away, she scribbled a phone number on the back of Evangeline''s
hand sneakily.
It was Cayden''s phone number.

Avery believed that Cayden would have a way to prove her innocence, so she prayed fervently that he
would arrive as soon as possible.
Outside the exam hall, Evangeline nced at the number Avery had written hastily on the back of her
hand. Despite the illegible handwriting, she could see the number was 13666666666. It was a number
that could easily be memorized.
Evangeline couldn''t imagine how much the number cost.
She once read in the news that the most expensive phone number was bid by an anonymous bidder
for two point eight million in Anndurn currency. The number had seven sixes, but the number Avery
gave her had eight sixes. She couldn''t imagine how expensive this number was.
With that, Evangeline''s curiosity about Avery''s identity and background grew.
She eagerly called the number.
At first, she anticipated that the call would go unanswered, but to her surprise, someone picked up after
about ten seconds.
A charming and deep voice rang out on the other end of the line. “Hello?”
Cayden never answered calls from unknown numbers, but he noticed the number was from Ackleton.
Avery was taking an exam there and could''ve used someone else''s phone to call him as her phone had
run out of battery. Thus, he was seized by a sudden impulse to answer the call.
A soft and shy voice belonging to a female asked, “H-Hello, is this Avery Rumpley''s husband?”
Cayden''s gaze turned solemn as a bad feeling rose within him. “I''m Avery''s husband. Who is this?”
