Chapter 1547 What On Earth Is Going On Gideon adjusted his glasses and looked at Eliana. 'Most of the applicants are either neglected children or raised by their grandparents, so you're all starting from the spoint. The scholarship committee controls the funding, and in situations like this, it's every person for themselves." Eliana was puzzled. "What do you mean, Mr. Valencia? Should I submit additional documents?" Gideon gave a soft chuckle and explained, "I told you before, Ms. Linden. It's not the documents that matter- it's having an obedient student. I advised you to meet with the committee leaders last time, but you refused. That wasn't a good response, was it?" Eliana frowned as she clutched her clothes. Disgust and fear washed over her in response to Gideon's words. Gideon seemed oblivious to Eliana's distress and moved behind her to pat her back. But instead of the educated, gentle individual he appeared to be, he scrutinized her with a disconcerting gaze.

"You need to be more thoughtful if you want that money. No need to tense up. Take stto think about what I've said. I'll contact you again in a few days," Gideon stated.

Having received financial aid for her school admission, Eliana had no choice but to agree. Still, a sense of anxiety gnawed at her.

In truth, Eliana wasn't the only scholarship recipient-someone from the next dormitory had also been chosen. While everyone else was thrilled and grateful, Eliana couldn't shake her doubts.

Once, Gideon had directed a fellow student from Eliana's village to a place to secure her scholarship. The student, Penelope Sawyer, was overjoyed and even treated Eliana to a meal.

Having been raised by her grandparents and living on subsidies, Eliana had been jealous of her peers who dined out in restaurants. As such, she could never forget the day when Penelope had taken her out for that special meal.

Penelope had promised to keep in touch, even after leaving school. However, she seemed to have disappeared since her departure.

Not only did she fail to contact Eliana, but she also hadn't returned to their hometown. During the new year, the elderly neighbor eagerly awaited her return.

Eliana doubted that the committed Penelope would do such a thing, yet there was no sign of her anywhere. When Eliana attempted to find her, Gideon publicly announced that Penelope had been recognized by the scholarship committee and sent abroad for further studies.

A year had passed since then, but Penelope still hadn't returned. Eliana felt lost, unsure of who to confide in regarding the matter. Eventually, her grades began to slip.

When her roommates noticed her dejection, they started teasing her.

"What's with the long face, Eliana? You've been chosen! If I were you, I'd be thanking the gods. It's a dream ctrue!" "She's right. You're so lucky, Eliana!"

Under their playful persuasions, Eliana swallowed the words she had intended to say Peixaps, she was truly blessed without even realizing it. Besides, she still had stto consider Gideon's suggestion.

Maybe it was all in her head.

Penelope could've simply stayed in a boarding school after going abroad, making it differ making it difficult for her to stay in touch. Once she returned, she could very well be one of those stylish students who studied aboard!

Ignoring her instincts, the young and inexperienced Eliang foundCherself drawn to the path Gideon suggested.
