The customers dining at the local diner were thrilled when they heard the news and crowded around to congratulate Carole. Some even asked to take selfies with her, basking in the glow of being the "Valedictorian's Mom." Many shared the moment on social media, feeling lucky to be in the presence of the city's top scholar.

Nanson, much like Carole, was bombarded with calls from prestigious universities competing for Anthea. After hanging up the last call, he was in a daze! He quickly summoned his secretary, Helena. "President Yeager, what can I do for you?" Helena asked.

"Congratulations, President Yeager!"
