It was halfway through the school day and Lila had already accused Marinette of bullying during lunch along with stealing her 'sketchbook' that happened to look like Marinette's. Which, of course, made the class give Marinette's sketchbook over to Lila, it was lucky that Marinette doesn't bring her main sketchbook to school insted brings her practice book to school instead (It was one where she practises different outfits by copying what people are wearing.)

"Now class as you all know, next week is the school dance so please make sure that you are ready for it as we are the class tasked with decorating the main hall this time" stated Miss Bustier, this caused the class to look at Marinette as she was the one known to produce most of the decorations whenever the class was tasked to decorate the event.

"Marinette, how many decorations are done?" continued Miss Bustier,
"I only have the streamers done as that is what I was tasked with and is all I'm able to do this weekend" replied Marinette as the class stares turned into glares,
"But Marinette I need to you to get the balloons and the tables decorations" wined Alya, "I've got a journalist workshop this weekend",
"I'm sure Marinette can do it," said Adrien smiling weakly as Lila clung to his arm,
"No, I can't because as I have stated previously, I'm too busy to do anything else" snapped Marinette,
"Don't worry Alya, I can do it" spoke Lila in a sickly sweet voice,
"Thank you, Lila" replied Miss Bustier, "Marinette if I could have a word-", she was cut off but a sharp knock on the door.

"Hold that thought," said Miss Bustier as she opened the door to let whoever knocked on the door in, it turned out to be a man and women with a clipboard and a brown file along with Penny which caused Marinette to quietly panicking while pulling out her phone to contact Uncle Jagged. "Can I help you?" asked Mis Bustier with slight worry showing on her face,
"Yes, but I believe Miss Rolling would like to go first" spoked the man,
"Miss Rossi, you have been sue for the numerous claims about Jagged Stone," said Penny while placing papers on Lila's desk,
"What!" exclaimed the class,
"Why would you do that, she saved Jagged's cat and he even wrote a song about Lila?" exclaimed Alya.

"Well, Miss Césaire, if you researched before you posted that lie, you would know that there is no song that Jagged had writtern or released to do with Lila along with the fact that Jagged is allergic to fur which means Jagged could never own a cat even if he wanted and I doubt he would since he is happy with Fang, his crocodile" replied Penny raising her eyebrow, this caused the class to gasp in shock and pull out their phone to check if what Lila had been saying had any facts to back it up, "and I would recommend that you take that article and other articles that state Miss Rossi's lies down before you get sued for slander as we are not happy with how Miss Rossi seems to imply that Jagged Stone, a 23-year-old man would write a song about a 15-year-old girl".

Alya looked like she wanted to say something but stopped herself in favour of going on her phone to most likely remove the article, "but-" Lila was stopped by Penny,
"Your mother has already been contacted about this",
"Which is where we should jump in," said the women with the clipboard,
"The school board has contacted your mother about the amount of time you have spent out of school which was a surprise to her since you apparently told her the school had been shut because Ladybug and Chat Noir didn't stop the Akumas until days after" the man continued,
"Which Miss Bustier and Mr Damocles should have contacted your mother about along with the medical problems that were also a lie insted of taking the word of a student which happen to be the same issue that caused a student to be wrongly expelled" the women stated looking sternly at Miss Bustier.

"Lila's mother confirmed her time off when both I and Mr Damocles emailed her" replied Miss Bustier clearly panicking,
"Emails can be faked, if a student has enough to skill to trick the staff into changing but that is also why school's have other ways to contact student's parents to double-check" snapped the man before handing Miss Bustier the brown file, "read this then meet us in Mr Damocles Office at the end of the day" and with the women and man left with Penny who gave Marinette a smile.

As soon as the group left, the class descended into arguments with the class yelling at Lila for lying to them, Adrien trying to calm the class down while Miss Bustier sank into her chair as she read through the file.

MDC: Did you really have to sue Lila?
Also, how did you get the school board involved

Uncle Jagged: Yes, because as soon as the tabloids got a hold of her lies,
they would have jumped on the story like hungry wolves.
As for the school board, your parents weren't happy once
we told them about Lila

MDC: You told them!

Uncle Jagged: Only the Lila issue,
you were close to a breakdown, they needed to know
Also, we need to have a much longer talk about this hero job of yours.
