“Let‘s go then.” Cecilia hugged Susanne‘s arm firmly, slightly displeased. “Susanne, you shouldn‘t have
accepted her invitation. If she really is with Vin, what good could she bring him besides troubles and
negative rumors? On the contrary, Vin‘s project in Horington still needs to deal with us.”
She meant it as a reminder as well as a warning.
Meanwhile, Susanne had gotten used to Cecilia‘s tactics.
She did not seem to be affected, as she displayed a smile. “I didn‘t do it for Vin.”
“Then?”
“Maybe you didn‘t know. Arielle‘s mom used to be my close friend many years ago. For her sake, I feel
I should take care of Arielle somehow.”
Cecilia was stunned upon hearing that. “I didn‘t know about that. Isn‘t she a bast*rd?”
Susanne‘s expression darkened as she uttered coldly, “Mrs. Greene, I hope
you would watch your mouth. Even if she isn‘t Henrick‘s child, she was born by my good friend who ha
d passed away. I never want to hear such words from
you again. Or else, you‘ll regret the consequences!”
If that man were to hear this, he might even destroy the entire Greene family.
Nevertheless, Cecilia did not know what Susanne meant
by consequences. She only thought the latter was trying to stand up for Maureen.
With that, she pursed her lips. “Fine, I won‘t mention it again.”
Even if I don’t mention it, it will always be the truth.
On the other side, Arielle did not rush to the
field to join the flea market. Instead, she brought Trisha to the bulletin board.
Even though there was a picture of the result in the forum, the angle was not good. Thus, they
could only see the top three winners.
The first place went to Arielle, the second was Wendy, while the third went to Wendy‘s deskmate, Terry.
Except for Arielle‘s rank, the ranking did not differ much from the usual class test result.
Trisha was so nervous that her hands were clammy, but still, she was concerned about Arielle.
“Sannie, why
don‘t we do as Wendy said and skipped going to the flea market. Let‘s go to study at the library, okay?”
“No need.” Arielle pinched Trisha‘s face gently. “I believe I can answer the questions without needing to
prepare. Don‘t forget I‘ve got full marks for four
papers.”
Wendy let out a sigh upon hearing that. “If you had taken the Chanaean paper, it would be
five full marks. If so, the gap between you and Wendy would be much more than twenty–six points.”
Arielle displayed an awkward smile upon hearing that.
She was not good in Chanaean. So, even if she had taken that paper, the result would be more or less
the same.
In the blink of an eye, they arrived at the bulletin board.
Due to
the post in the forum, many students of Jadeborough University had gathered there, hoping to see the g
As soon as Arielle arrived, someone recognized her.
“Look! Goddess of Study is here!”
At once, the crowd clustered around her.
The next instant, they lined up in front of Arielle and bowed toward her simultaneously.
Arielle was left bewildered upon seeing that scene.
Trisha smiled while explaining. “I heard there‘s
a legend in this university. It is said that we can get good luck by bowing to Goddess of Study.”
No wonder all the students from the preparatory class worshipped her before their results got announce
That superstitious ritual made Arielle utterly embarrassed.
