The students of Class F were elated. It was their first time placing fifth in exams.
Daisy was also genuinely happy for them.
Finally, she did not have to be looked down on by Lilian anymore.
…….
Currently, in Class A, Lilian was standing on the podium with a blank look on her face. “Something came up with Mr. Smith. I will announce your results instead.”
Emily looked expectant. She was waiting for Lilian to announce that she had placed first in the recent exams.
She would have so much to boast about!
The other students also had high hopes of hearing that Class F placed last and had to start cleaning the toilets from tomorrow onward.
Just imagining that scene was hilarious.
More so when they thought of the usually arrogant Janet cleaning the toilets.
We’ll see if she can still keep that smile on her face.
Unexpectedly, Lilian had a gloomy look on her face and her tone sounded displeased. “I’m in awe of you guys. You actually lost to Class F’s Janet Jackson.”
“What?”
“Janet placed first?”
“I didn’t hear that wrong, did I? How did Janet get first place?”
“Emily actually lost to Janet?”
No one in Class A dared to believe their ears.
The person who had the hardest time accepting this was Emily. Her jaw was clenched and her fingers were turning white from clenching so tightly.
Didn’t Miss Lilian say I scored 145 on the English exam? Why did Janet place first then?
There was an uproar amongst the students which agitated Lilian even further. She slammed the table several times with a grim look on her face. “Not only that. Class F’s average score also put them in fifth place!”
As soon as she said that, students of Class A jumped up in a flurry like a bunch of ants in a hot pot.
“How is that possible? Class F has been last for the past three years!”
“Exactly! How did they improve so much in such a short amount of time?”
“Didn’t Janet tutor them?”
“No way. How could Janet be capable of leading more than thirty people? Does she think she’s a teacher?”
Even though everyone refused to believe the outcome, the results were irrefutable.
Emily was in complete denial. She stood up on impulse and cried, “Miss Lilian, I can’t accept this! Janet only scored 200 on the last exam!”
Lilian did not want to believe it either, but the facts were right before her eyes.
After her accusations against Janet were brought to the principal’s attention last time, which resulted in her having to apologize to Janet for three days in a row, she did not want to put herself through that embarrassment again.
Before the exam, she was certain that Daisy would lead the whole class to clean the toilets, but now she only felt like kicking herself.
Who knows how Daisy will show off in front of me? Oh, why didn’t Emily do better?
Letting out a dry cough, she said with a stern expression, “It is what it is. If you have any doubts, you can visit the principal personally once the exam papers are distributed.”
Then, she stormed out of the classroom.
Emily kept her head lowered and remained silent.
Even if it cost her her life, she would never believe that Janet was that capable.
When the exam papers were distributed, she was going to take a thorough look at Janet’s.
…….
In Yobril, a man was squinting his green eyes as he watched a young girl playing the piano on the screen.
“I didn’t know a talent like her existed in Sandfort City.”
“Do you want her details, Albert?”
This man called Albert was a person from the Royal Academy of Music. They were searching for an heir all around the country. Soon, they were going to find talents online and within their own country. But, they did not expect to stumble upon that young girl today.
Halfway through the performance, however, the plagiarism scandal broke out.
“Give me her details!”
“Yes, Sir!” Albert’s assistant answered from beside him.
The assistant did not think that Albert would go to Sandfort City to scout for someone either.
After all, why wasn’t the heir someone from their own country? Why did he want to look for someone of a different descent?
Nonetheless, he did not pry any further. I just have to do as Mr. Albert asks.
