The results of the preliminary exams had just been released, and students, even those who hadn’t participated, were whipping out their phones in a frenzy to check the scores. Everyone was curious about Mirabella, the new girl rumored to have pulled strings to get into Parkside High School. They wondered if her score would be an abysmal twenty or 50, However, at the moment when they saw the ranking of the urades, everyone’s eyes almost popped out.
