How Death Became My Rebirth by Evelyn Florence

Chapter 53

Cassandra’s achievements caused a stir in the class.

‘1564 points! Such a high score!‘ everyone exclaimed inwardly.

The highest score of Samuel, who had ranked first in the whole grade, was only 1519

points, while Cassandra easily scored 1564 points without answering many questions.

When the results were announced, Samuel turned around in surprise. He hadn’t expected

Cassandra to keep her own counsel. With 1564 points, she had probably

scored full marks for all four basic sciences.

That was an unparalleled result.

When Yulissa heard Cassandra score 1564 points, she couldn’t stand it. She suddenly

stood up and said to Connor, “It’s impossible. Cassandra is a country bumpkin with low

education. How could she get 1564 points? She must have cheated!”

She thought, ‘That’s right! It must be cheating! She must have cheated because she was

afraid of losing to me! That must be the case!‘

“Yulissa, please sit down!” Connor turned his attention from Yulissa to the class, saying, “I

know you have doubts about Cassandra’s paper. So do the teachers. Therefore, we’ve

checked all the surveillance cameras and found no signs of cheating on Cassandra.

Besides, Cassandra’s problem–solving is different from everyone else’s. It’s not even the

standard answer!”

‘She is just too low–key! Despite being so outstanding, she has remained unknown,‘ he

thought.

“It’s impossible. How could she get such a high score?” Yulissa kept mumbling. She

couldn’t believe it.

In that way, Cassandra was 133 points higher than her, twice as high as the score she had

promised. ‘It’s impossible. Absolutely impossible! she thought.

Yulissa stood up and said indignantly, “Mr. Zeller, I want to report Cassandra for cheating.

You must give us an explanation!” She requested Connor to give an explanation and

punish the cheater.

Without waiting for Connor to speak, Cassandra stood up and said, “Yulissa, are you

deliberately delaying the time because you lost the bet? I didn’t cheat. I believe the school

has investigated clearly. Are you questioning the teachers and the school?”

“I’m just doubting you. You have only attended junior high school for a few days. How can

you learn the knowledge of high school and get such a high score?”

Yulissa thought her suspicion was reasonable and legal. Anyway, she would not admit

defeat.

“Okay, then I’ll convince you!”

Cassandra glanced around at her classmates who were watching the show. It was ironic

yet interesting that some of them never learned their lessons.

“I believe most families have participated in the charity gala on Saturday. You guys should

know about my identity as Elaine.”

Yulissa’s face froze.

Indeed, Cassandra was Elaine. Her fame and prestige were beyond the reach of anyone.

It was rumored that Elaine had obtained master’s and doctorate degrees from more than a

dozen world–renowned schools. In addition to fashion design, some schools even offered

her an annual salary of around 2 million dollars to teach once a month,

but she declined them all.

The more Yulissa thought about it, the paler her face turned.

Somebody said, “Oh, yeah. When my dad came home that day and said Cassandra was

Elaine, I was stunned. Mrs. Hathaway has acknowledged it. There should be no

mistake!”

Another chimed in, “It’s said that Elaine has received many doctorate degrees. Then why

is she attending high school?”

Cassandra heard that and said, “Because Yulissa’s good father felt sorry for her, he sent

me to school to accompany her. It’s only for a month anyway. I don’t want to quit halfway.

It’s not a bad idea to take the SAT. After all, I have never experienced it!”

Her classmates thought, ‘Is she showing off? That’s true. She is only 18 years old now.

How could she have gotten so many degree certificates if she had taken the SAT?‘

Yulissa’s body went weak, and she almost fell to the floor.

“Yulissa, you lost the bet. It’s time for you to fulfill it. You have to persist.” Cassandra

looked at Connor and said, “Mr. Zeller, you won’t be biased or make an exception, right?”

That would mean that Yulissa had to fulfill the terms of their bet and finish running the

laps that day, no matter what happened.

“I won’t accept it! You got the result by cheating. Why should I admit defeat?”

“So, Yulissa, whose paper can I copy? The second place in the grade sat in front of you.

My score is over 70 points higher than him. I was at the last exam venue. Tell me, whose

paper did I copy?”

Yulissa couldn’t answer Cassandra’s question. She thought, ‘I can’t lose. No! If I fulfill the

bet, my reputation will be ruined! Cassandra is so mean!”

“I…”

“What’s your bet?” Connor asked.

The classmate in front of Cassandra stood up and said, “Mr. Zeller, it was Yulissa who

wanted to make a bet with Cassandra. Whoever achieves the better result this time will

win the bet and set the conditions!”

Those videos on the weekend had let her see Yulissa’s true colors. She would not take the

side of the evildoers.

“Then, let’s do it. I will keep my word!”

Hearing that, Cassandra smiled lightly. She thought Yulissa was going to get Edward to

take Connor away.

Seeing that Yulissa didn’t move, she could only walk up to her out of compassion.

“Let’s go, Yulissa. It’s time to fulfill your bet!” Cassandra suddenly grabbed Yulissa’s hair

with one hand and went to the podium to take the homeroom teacher’s wireless

microphone before walking toward the classroom door.

“Cassandra, let me go! Ah! It hurts! Cassandra, let me tell you, it’s useless, whatever you

do. As long as I am here, you will never be the daughter of the Yates family! Ah! Let go,

Cassandra!”

Along the way, more and more students gathered to watch the show.

“Yulissa, according to the final test results, you lost. According to the agreement, I win if

my score is 60 points higher than yours. Now, my score is 133 points higher. If you want to

cheat or don’t want to fulfill the bet, don’t blame me!”

‘You provoked me again and again, and I ignored it. Since you want to push your luck, then

we’ll see!‘ she thought.

“I didn’t lose. You cheated!”

Yulissa’s voice could barely be heard on the field outdoors while Cassandra spoke through

the microphone effortlessly.

Cassandra didn’t mind spending another minute with her. “I’ll give you five seconds. If you

don’t start running, I will break your legs myself. If you can’t run, I’ll make you a

“Cassandra, how dare you! Dad, Mom, and all our brothers won’t let you off!” Yulissa was

a little scared because Cassandra was nothing like before.

‘Where is that cautious Cassandra before? This is not her at all!‘ she thought.

“You can try and see whether I dare. Have you forgotten that I broke Ray’s arm

yesterday?” Cassandra kindly reminded.

Yulissa recalled what the doctor had said to Raymond the previous day. ‘My hands…‘ she

thought.

“Ok! I’ll run!”

Cassandra said with a satisfied expression, “Remember to run for ten laps and shout

‘Yulissa is an idiot‘ 200 times. If there is one timeless, it won’t count! Run first. You still

have other terms to fulfill later!”
