Chapter 98

With that said and disregarding whether Gary had understood what she said, Nicole pulled back her

hands from the table and walked slowly back to her place. The entire class was silent.

Gary looked at Nicole’s back. Even if she leaned back lazily, her back was still straight, unlike the

pretentious pride of Raine and Snow. Nicole’s pride was not showy but subtle and in her bones. But her

pride could be felt in her behavior, look, and action. Maybe he was indeed wrong this time. But when

thinking of Nicole’s zero-score test paper, a determined look appeared in Gary’s eyes again. Mr. Louis

had once said that Nicole was talented, and he would not want Nicole to be barred from taking part in the

Math Olympiad competition from now on. He must help her win the bet. Thinking of this, Gary glanced at

Nicole and then said coldly to Jack, “You come with me.” Jack looked at Gary in bafflement, wondering if

he had offended him. After Gary and Jack left, the class fell into a dead silence. Instead of dealing with

Nicole, Gary chose to call Jack, who was the source of the problem, out. Everyone, especially the girls,

looked at Nicole with jealousy in their eyes. Vivian looked at Nicole frostily as if she was to poke a hole in

Nicole’s body with her gaze.

But Nicole did not look at her. In her eyes, Gary was the crux of all the problems. Fixing Gary and the

others would automatically fall in line.

The school bell rang, and everyone pulled back their attention from Nicole, acting as if nothing had

happened. Ms. Emerson walked in and saw Gary and Jack not being in their seats. She frowned but said

nothing

After class, Ms. Emerson called Nicole out alone, handed her two exercises, looked at her, and said, “I

have pondered about it and think that you are not someone who would say something irresponsibly.

These are the original math papers authored by Mr. Hancock from previous Math Olympiad competitions.

Take them back and study them.”

Nicole looked at her and felt a little surprised. It seemed that Ms. Emerson really thought so when she

saw Ms. Emerson’s sincere look on her face. So Nicole did not decline but took the two exercises.

“Thank you, Ms. Emerson.”

“Go now.” Ms. Emerson smiled at her.

Nicole walked away, but Ms. Emerson stood there, looking at Nicole, and whispered, “All the best,

Nicole.” She had been thinking about it all these days. Nicole was just trying to prove herself. She should

not have suspected Nicole. As a teacher, she should have encouraged her students.

Back at the office, Ms. Emerson had just sat down when Mr. Kennedy came over with a thermos cup in

his hand. “I heard that your student, Nicole, who couldn’t even help herself, wanted to give the second-

to-last Austin tuition. I just want to remind you that Austin is in twelfth grade and his poor academic

performance is not something that Nicole can help. You have got to look after this ‘Math Olympiad

genius’ of yours. Don’t forget, we still have a bet.”
