Chapter 32

After taking a deep breath, Jasmine opened the door and walked into Miss Woods’ office. In truth, she was here for the public speaking competition that would be held during Chinese Week.

“Miss Woods, the public competition during Chinese Week is going to open for registrations soon. May I know

who you are planning to recommend to participate in the competition?”

In all honesty, Miss Woods actually took a liking to Jasmine. After all, the latter came from a good family background and her Chinese was quite good. She also helped Miss Woods in many tasks in their class, so she was considered as the teacher’s efficient assistant.

“I knew you would like to attend, so I will recommend you.”

Jasmine’s eyes lit up as soon as she heard Miss Woods’ words, and she immediately said sweetly, “Thank you,

Miss Woods! I will try my best.”

Miss Woods patted her back in response. “Jasmine, your Chinese is quite good professionally. You are definitely

better than the current standard that we are studying. But I think you still have a lot of room for improvement and

you can improve loads. Miss Sinclair in our class also has a good command of Chinese. You can learn from her

during your free time. Both of you can learn from each other and improve yourselves in your studies.”

Jasmine’s face immediately fell upon hearing that, but she hid her disappointment very well and immediately

wiped the emotion from her face. “Thank you, Miss Woods. I understand. I will learn from Elise.”

“Good. I believe that you would do well, so keep up the good work. It’s almost time for class now, so you better

go back first.”

After coming out of the office, Jasmine was like a deflated balloon.

Looking back, it’s obvious that Miss Woods had high hopes for Elise. This won’t do! I must surpass her and defeat

her no matter one!

And so, Jasmine took out her phone and dialed a number. “Mom, last time you told me that Mr. Beter is back. Is that true? We should pay him a visit someday=”

After hanging up the phone, Jasmine immediately felt a surge of relief.
