Chapter 21

Luke was feeling a bit stressed about the competition. Noah patted his shoulder and said, “Once the results are out, I’ll have a good talk with her. After all, the revival match is crucial.” Luke frowned, “It was Alice who begged me for ages to teach her how to play, and now she’s trying to put me in a corner. When did she become so cunning?”

“If all else fails, let Ethan handle it. She won’t ignore him.”

Chloe, listening nearby, felt incredibly frustrated. She didn’t want to give her spot to Alice! It was hers! That was her place!

After Alice arrived at school, everyone was buzzing about the exam results. One of Chloe’s minions glanced at Alice and deliberately said loudly. “Someone has been working so hard lately; I wonder how many points she scored!”

Alice pretended to be calm as she pulled out her textbook to review, but inside, she was a bundle of nerves.

Before long, the homeroom teacher came over with the report card, and the room erupted with

excitement.

The teacher clapped his hands for silence, “Quiet! The overall scores aren’t great; now isn’t the time to slack off. Especially you, Chloe, you’ve dropped over two hundred ranks.” Chloe’s face paled. She knew she’d been distracted, but not to this extent. The teacher looked at Alice, hesitating before saying,.“But Alice has made significant progress. Keep it up!”

A minion asked, “Teacher, what rank is Alice?”

“She’s 100th in the grade.”

The classroom erupted.

Alice couldn’t help but smile; she actually did it! She was so excited; now she could report her results to Jack! It seemed her hard work had truly paid off. If she kept this up, Harvard University was within reach!

“Teacher, I suspect there’s something off with Alice’s scores; there’s no way she could improve so much in such a short time!”

The room fell silent. Almost everyone turned to look at Alice, their eyes filled with doubt. The teacher glanced at Alice’s ranking, and while he had some reservations, he knew she had been working hard.
