CHAPTER 421
In a dazed state, Daisy rose from the chair, not knowing how to describe her own feelings.On the other
hand, Lilian balled up her fists and clenched her teeth. Why? How is that possible? How could those
slow-witted students from Class F achieve an average score of 591? That’s the highest average score
ever achieved in the history of Star High School.While Lilian was both shocked and upset, the principal
was ready to announce the top scorer of the college entrance exam this time. Therefore, she pulled
herself together and waited for the principal to announce the name ‘Emily Jackson’.Seeing how
nervous Lilian was, the teacher beside her asked, “Miss Lilian, why is your forehead drenched in
sweat?”“Miss Lilian, relax. I’m sure the top scorer has to be from Class A.”“Yeah. It has to be Emily
Jackson again.”Upon hearing that, Lilian set her mind at ease and curled up her lips. “That’s not
necessarily true. After all, Class F has achieved the highest average score.”When the principal heard
that, he smiled and said slowly, “Just like what Miss Lilian has said, the top scorer this time comes from
Class F!”“What?!” Lilian almost leaped off her chair, her face turning from scarlet to crimson.“How is
that possible? Mr. Principal, are you saying that the top scorer comes from Class F?”“But Emily
Jackson’s overall result is the best!”“Could that person be Gordon Yaleman?”“But for him to achieve
the best score, he has to get a perfect score for his language test as well. Did he also excel in the
essay section?”“That’s unbelievable. Even Emily couldn’t have achieved that.”The principal grinned
and cleared his throat. “Stop guessing.”Following that, he shifted his dark eyes to Daisy, who was in the
corner, and he said firmly, “The top scorer for the college entrance exam this time is our transfer
student, Janet Jackson!”As soon as he finished his words, the meeting room fell into dead silence.
Janet Jackson? The transfer student from the countryside who beat up Jennifer and argued with
Emily? How is it possible that she could have achieved perfect scores for all subjects? Even if her
results were okay in the past, she couldn’t have achieved such a feat. The essay alone was too difficult
for anyone to get a perfect score.“Mr. Principal, I have an objection!” Lilian was both incensed and
discontent.I could have understood it if it was Gordon who had achieved the best result, but I would
never have believed it if it was Janet who turned out to be the top scorer.“Miss Lilian, what objection do
you have? Do you think there might be a problem with the system for calculating scores?”Lilian
clenched her fists and bit her lip. “Mr. Principal, I’m not trying to say that there’s a problem with the
system, but I don’t think someone like Janet could have achieved the best result. Did she also get a
perfect score for the essay?”The principal frowned. “Miss Lilian, why wouldn’t she get a perfect score
for that? As far as I’m concerned, she’s always been in the top three for past exams. If you have any
doubts, you should go through her exam papers first.”For a slight moment, Lilian was rendered
speechless. “Got it. I’ll take my leave now.” With a mortally grim expression, she bit her lip, for she had
never felt so embarrassed before. How could Daisy’s class surpass mine? The reward… It’s all gone Content © 2024.
now.The principal stared at Lilian’s leaving figure without any emotion on his face. After that, he
coughed and said in a serious manner, “Since the top scorer of the college entrance exam comes from
our school, I’m sure many journalists will flock to our school and request for interviews, so I hope that
all of you will be prepared and don’t appear flustered.” Following a pause, he continued, “Daisy, please
take the interviews seriously.”Daisy was still reeling from the shock, so she nodded mechanically.
“Alright, I’ll take the interviews seriously.” I didn’t expect that Janet would be able to raise the average
score for the entire class. It’s a huge boost to my reputation as a teacher. I really should treat her to a
meal one day.
