Chapter 363

Nicole did not care about what they thought. She went to her seat and quickly took out a question bank book.

Many things have happened, but Nicole continued to work hard on the math question bank book.

She speedily worked on the math problems. After all, the Math Olympiad was soon She gently twirled her pen. Her thoughts were as fast as lightning; she instantly thought of a method to solve the problem.

Nicole was on the last page of the book. She lifted her head before closing the book. There was a sea of people surrounding her. They were all looking at her with eager eyes.

Nicole asked resignedly, “What’s the matter?”

They all looked at each other and started forming a line to apologize. Nicole sighed. She looked at the sea of people in front of her and frowned.

‘It’s good that my brothers have helped me clear my name, but having these people apologize to me is so troublesome.’ she thought.

Thankfully, she was saved by the bell. Nicole breathed a sigh of relief as the people left reluctantly.

Gary was sitting in the last row. He had been wanting to speak to Nicole.

However, he could only make out Nicole’s figure due to the crowd.

‘How could I let go of my reputation and squeeze through the crowd simply to speak to Nicole? ‘he thought.

In the end, Gary still gave up. He quietly returned to his seat. However, there was an indistinguishable glint in his eyes. Vivian was sitting in the front row. Her eyes glinted darkly when she noticed his actions.

‘Nicole truly seizes every opportunity to make herself stand out!’ she thought. She took out her phone and sent out a text under her desk. Only then did she feel like she had control of the situation again, Everyone in the class was looking at Nicole a little differently from before. Those who mocked Nicole quieted down when they thought of the 25-carat purple diamond that fell from her drawer.

“That piece of diamond is worth more than all of my parents’ fortune combined. Yet, Nicole does not care,’ they thought. At the thought of this, many of them decided to join the Nicole apology queue after class.

‘Ego means nothing,’ they thought, Ms. Emerson walked into the class on time. Nicole did not care about what others thought and carefully opened the last page of the question bank book. She was preparing to learn the final bit of knowledge.

After all, once she finishes this book, there won’t be any left. ‘The other participants would probably die of shock if they knew how Nicole was preparing for the competition. She’s reluctant to solve a difficult problem and had saved it for the last!’ Ms. Emerson thought.

She had a smile in her eyes when she noticed what Nicole was doing.

‘Nicole is such an interesting person,’ she thought again.

After class, Ms. Emerson called Gary and Nicole over to the lecture podium. She spoke to them in a low voice.

The Math Olympiad was happening soon, so she wanted to know how their preparations were going Gary had seen Nicole’s blank question bank book at the café yesterday.

He could not help but think, ‘Even though Nicole is good at racing, she still has trouble solving a Math Olympiad problem.’

‘Anyway, why did Ms. Emerson ask such a question when the two of us are present? Isn’t she worried about Nicole feeling awkward?’ he wondered.

He replied casually, “It’s going okay.”

Ms. Emerson understood that this meant he felt confident. She then looked at Nicole expectantly.
