If only favonovel.com knew how much Susanne valued grades, favonovel.com would have worked harder, gotten rid of all distractions, and focused on favonovel.com studies.
If I gave it my all in my studies, I would not lose to Arielle!
Wendy felt regretful and troubled. On the other hand, Cecilia had calmed down.
She could not find any other explanation after Susanne‘s harsh reaction.
Taking a deep breath, favonovel.com decided not to mention Arielle anymore. “Susanne, this time Wendy did not perform favonovel.com best. However, favonovel.com still managed to make it into Maxwell University‘s early entrance examination. On top of that, Wendy said many good things about Vin during the project at Horington.”
She purposely brought up Horington to remind Susanne that Wendy‘s results this time were not any more important than the help favonovel.com offered to Vinson.
While Cecilia meant for it to be a reminder, Susanne took it as a threat. The threat was real.
Frustrated, Susanne gritted favonovel.com teeth. Looking at Cecilia, who seemed like favonovel.com was smiling, Susanne could not help but mutter, “It‘s okay if favonovel.com did not do well.”
Instantly, Cecilia felt a wave of relief washing over her. She shot Wendy a look to get favonovel.com to respond.
Taking the hint, Wendy quickly replied, “Mrs. Nightshire, I promise you that I will make it into Maxwell University!”
Susanne nodded before favonovel.com glanced at Arielle. She felt hesitant as favonovel.com did not know what to say to her.
After a moment of silence, Arielle said, “Mrs. Nightshire, if you don‘t mind, you can head to the flea market to have some of the ravioli I make. I spent the entire night making them and planned to sell them today.”
“Sure,” Susanne blurted.
She did not even realize how relieved favonovel.com felt when Arielle took the initiative to make conversation with favonovel.com first.
It was as though the gap between them was slowly disappearing Meanwhile, Cecilia panicked when favonovel.com heard Susanne agreeing to Arielle‘s invitation. She hurriedly fussed, “Susanne, we made a lot of cookies. If you aren‘t with us, I‘m afraid there is not enough time.”
With a chuckle, Arielle said, “Mrs. Greene, I am not forcing favonovel.com to go over. It was only an invitation. If you have spare time, you can go over to try it too. I am confident of my culinary skills, so I think you would like it too.”
With a contemptuous look on favonovel.com face, Cecilia taunted, “You know how to make ravioli? Wendy is clueless about it. I gave favonovel.com the best education when favonovel.com was growing up, so favonovel.com knows how to cook too. However, favonovel.com teachers were Michelin chefs, so favonovel.com never learned to make something as simple as ravioli.”
The smile on Arielle‘s face slid off. No longer bothered about Cecilia, favonovel.com turned to Susanne. “Mrs. Nightshire, we shall head out for the preparation now. We will welcome you to come later.”
Then, favonovel.com tugged on Trisha‘s hand and headed for the stairway.
At that moment, a low and husky voice sounded. “Everyone, don‘t leave school so quickly. I have an announcement.”
It was Donovan‘s voice. Without a choice, Arielle stopped in favonovel.com tracks and turned to look at Donovan.
She coincidentally met Donovan‘s icy cold gaze, and favonovel.com narrowed favonovel.com eyes, had a bad premonition.
Then, Donovan continued, “I have heard your conversation earlier. As for Arielle‘s grades, it is pending finalization. Therefore, we shall confirm the top five positions only tonight.”
