Chapter 718:
âWhy can Kieran be your idol, but I canât?â
Jodiâs legs wobbled, her knees almost buckling beneath her. She quickly waved her hands in protest.
âNo, no, Lenny. You are also my senior.â
âIn that case, why didnât you include my questions in your notes?â
Panic surged through Jodi.
âI didnât knowâ¦
Can I add them now?â
Tears sprang to Jodiâs eyes without warning, the emotion too much to bear.
Seeing this, Kieran immediately sprang to her defense, his tone sharp as he scolded Lenny.
The room fell silent, everyone stunned by the unexpected turn of events. What kind of conversation was this? Was Lenny really upset because Jodi hadnât written down his questions? How was that possible? There was no way Lenny was jealous over something so insignificant.
Howeverâ¦
Ignoring the shocked stares around her, Harlee fixed Lenny with a pointed look.
âIf you keep this up, she is going to cry.â
Seeing the tears about to spill from Jodiâs eyes, Lenny apologized.
âSorry, Jodi. I didnât mean to make you upset. I just wanted Harleeâs help with a tough problem, not to make things harder for you.â
Jodi nodded, her movements stiff.

As if making a vow, she raised her hand.
âLenny, from now on, Iâll make sure to include your difficult questions in my notes.â
Harlee finished answering the ten questions and handed the notebook back to Jodi with both hands.
âI have provided detailed answers except for the new energy question.
Go over them a few times, and the principles will click.â
Assuming Harlee hadnât answered the last question, Kieran was about to lean over to take a look
But Harlee calmly told him, âDonât worry. I answered the last one too. I just used a simpler method.â
Kieran let out a relieved chuckle, his grin widening.
âAh, I got lucky, then.â
Kieran then cast a smug glance at Lenny, almost daring Lenny to slap him.
Everyone exchanged furtive glances and whispered among themselves.
âWho exactly is Miss Sanderson? How did she manage to get so many influential people to put on this charade?â
âWe donât know what questions Jodi had written, but the final experiment we set up had us scratching our heads for months. She solved it in less than ten minutes. Itâs unbelievable.â
Annalise immediately jumped in, her voice laced with disdain.
âUgh, only someone as naive as Jodi would fall for this. If Iâm not mistaken, Kieran and Lenny must have given the answers to Miss Sanderson in advance!â
âHonestly, if I can get Kieran and Lenny to show a little jealousy, Iâm all for playing along with Miss Sandersonâs charade.â
