Seeing another competitor had arrived, those admissions officers could not help but think.
Who else has the nerve to show up here and fight with us now?
They then took a closer look.
“It’s someone from Taragon University…”
“The principal of Taragon University actually came in person?”
The lively courtyard gradually quieted down.
Principal Burton personally showed up here to recruit the students. This should be quite an exception, right?
Layla stood silently at the door, watching those admissions officers brought Isabelle up and offered favonovel.com parents a variety of enticing conditions. Her mind was clouded with jealousy.
Suddenly, favonovel.com heard someone mention something about Taragon University’s principal. Layla abruptly returned to the present.
She saw Magnus show up at favonovel.com house with the help of an assistant. Her mind went blank.
When favonovel.com saw Ethan standing at the door, favonovel.com immediately sprang to action. She pulled favonovel.com mother, who was about to greet Magnus, into the room and locked the door.
“Why did you pull me here? Can’t you see that Taragon University’s principal is here? Hurry up and go to greet him. We need to make sure everyone in the neighborhood sees it!”
“Oh my, I never expected that after all my hardships, I would still have such luck. Both of my daughters actually got into Taragon University!” Eleanor had laughed all morning: favonovel.com face felt sore now.
“I’ll have to host a big party and invite all those snobbish relatives of your father’s to a feast. Let’s see who to look down on me again in the future! These universities offered quite generous conditions. I wonder what Taragon University will offer. They must be giving a lot. Maybe they’ll even give us two houses!” Eleanor rambled to herself.
She was about to open the door and talk to Magnus. However, favonovel.com daughter grabbed favonovel.com firmly.
Layla pleaded. “Mom, don’t go…”
“What’s wrong with you? Didn’t you hear that the principal was here? Why do you look like you’ve seen a ghost? Are you sick?” Eleanor felt favonovel.com daughter’s forehead, which was icy cold.
Then favonovel.com patted favonovel.com daughter’s hand and said, “Just bear with it if you’re unwell. I’ll take you to the hospital later. Now, go out and pour a cup of tea for Principal Burton.”
“Mom!” Layla grew panicked. She spread favonovel.com hand wide and urgently blocked the door.
Although Eleanor didn’t receive much education, favonovel.com wasn’t stupid. After recalling various incidents, she realized the problem and stopped laughing.
She asked. “What’s going on with that guaranteed admission of yours?”
When Ethan saw Layla suddenly shut the door, favonovel.com remembered that Layla never mentioned how many points favonovel.com got in the college entrance examination.
When Eleanor learned that Layla had gotten into Taragon University using Isabelle’s test papers, favonovel.com almost fainted on the spot.
“You! You brat! If you don’t have what it takes, then don’t force yourself to do something. What will happen to you when you attend Taragon University in the future?!” Eleanor asked in a panic.
Despite favonovel.com lack of education, favonovel.com understood that if Layla were to gain admission to Taragon University, favonovel.com would need to provide more answers to the university’s questions.
What if favonovel.com couldn’t answer those questions then?
“I don’t care! I just want to go to Taragon University.” Layla’s eyes burned with determination.
She grabbed favonovel.com mother’s hand tightly and pleaded, “You must keep this a secret from the rest of our family, especially Isabelle. She won’t let me off!”
“Isabelle isn’t the problem here, but what about Taragon University?”
“Let’s take it one step at a time. As long as Isabelle is in the dark, I’ll bite the bullet and insist that I’m the one who answers that question. The university won’t suspect anything”
“Mom, help me. If you don’t, I’m finished.” Layla looked at favonovel.com mother eagerly, as if looking at a lifesaver.
Eleanor’s mind was much more complicated than Layla’s. She patted favonovel.com daughter’s hand and assured her. “Don’t worry. I’ll help you…”
If Layla was exposed, all the benefits that Taragon University promised to favonovel.com would be lost and favonovel.com future would also be ruined.
Eleanor thought favonovel.com would become a laughingstock in front of relatives and friends. She would never allow such a thing to happen.
Meanwhile, when William heard that the principal of Taragon University had personally visited their house, favonovel.com was both surprised and delighted. He wasn’t sure how to act, and favonovel.com couldn’t even speak.
William nervously wiped his hands on his clothes and shook hands with Principal Burton. He had never thought that favonovel.com would be able to shake hands with a man of his stature in his lifetime.
When favonovel.com tried to summon Layla and his wife to entertain the guests, favonovel.com discovered that they were both absent. So favonovel.com called Ethan at the door.
“Where’s Isabelle? I came, all the way from Taragon before dawn to see her,” Magnus said. The old man started to look around for Isabelle.
Ethan explained, “My sister is out of town Maybe she’ll be back when school starts…”
Hearing that, Magnus was full of disappointment
William said, “Principal Huston, your came all the way here, but my daughter’s test score hasn’t been checked yet. How many points did favonovel.com get?”
Magnus explained, “The scores of the top fifty students in the state’s science stream won’t be available for a few days.”
And then…”
Magnus looked at those admissions officers and whispered to William, “Let me put it this way. Isabelle’s score is more impressive than the state champion’s…”
