A Film Queen of Two Worlds 

Chapter 253 Nobody Leaves Today 

Stephanie began to sob. 

Finished 

Milly couldn’t help but sneer. Stephanie was relentless, desperately trying to steer the conversation back to grades, even if it meant belittling herself to drag Milly down. 

If she found out that Milly’s grades were actually better, she would probably be ashamed of herself. 

At that moment, Thomas asked, “Which university did you get into, Stephanie?” 

Milly couldn’t help but feel that Thomas was trying to help her from being an embarrassment. 

But, Stephanie didn’t seem to catch on and answered obediently, “Old Mr. Scathings, I got into Adonio University.” 

“I see … Adonio University. 

Thomas gave Philip a mocking look. Hmph! I knew it! Philip was only bragging. His granddaughter didn’t score as well as my grandson. 

Philip noticed the look and flushed in frustration. He wanted to say something but he ended up huffing and turning his head away. 

Hmph, Whatever! It’ll be Thomas’s turn to be embarrassed when the news airs later. 

If it weren’t for Stephanie’s pride, he would have retorted by now. 

His silence only boosted Thomas’s arrogance. “You know what? Lucius got into. Crestfallen University, which is close to Adonio University,” he bragged. 

Lucius? 

Milly glanced at the sullen young man standing quietly nearby. So his name was Lucius? It sounded like Lucia or Lucy. No wonder he looked so effeminate. 

Stephanie blinked, both surprised and delighted, “Really? Lucius is at Crestfallen University? That’s wonderful! Our schools are close, so we can look out for each other.”

Suddenly, Stephanie paused. Milly raised an eyebrow, feeling a sense of foreboding. 

Finished 

Sure enough, Stephanie continued in a soft voice, “Actually, Milly’s school is also. nearby. The three of us can hang out together.” 

Haha! 

Milly laughed. She had to admire Stephanie’s persistence. This tenacity could lead. her to great achievements if only it were directed elsewhere. 

But this time, Stephanie succeeded. Thomas was intrigued. “Really? Which school are you at Milly?” 

All eyes turned to Milly. 

Milly smiled and said, “My performance in this exam was average. It’s nothing worth mentioning.” 

“But your grades are usually bad. So this time… Oops, I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to say that. Please don’t be mad at me.” 

Stephanie pretended to cover her mouth in regret as if she had accidentally spilled the beans. 

Stephanie’s acting was bad. 

Anthony, who had been quietly observing, noticed something was off. Why is Stephanie being a nuisance? 

Unable to contain his temper any longer, he slammed on the table and stood up angrily. 

“Who says Milly has bad grades? She scored better than me and way better than you. Who are you to talk to her like that?” 

Stephanie shrank back as if she was frightened by Anthony. “Anthony, you shouldn’t make things up even if you favour Milly. All the university admission lists are out, and her name isn’t on any of them. She even said she hasn’t received. any acceptance letters.” 

Anthony retorted furiously, “You’re such a fool. Not every school or program requires acceptance letters.”

Stephanie’s heart sank. It is true that some special programs don’t require acceptance letters. However, those are highly confidential majors. Could Milly have gotten into one of those? 

But if that were the case, why hadn’t I heard anything about it? 

It’s fine if my brothers didn’t tell me anything about it. What about Grandpa? Does he know anything? 

Philip’s mood darkened. “Sit down! Stop fighting in front of my guests. Where’s your manners?!” 

Stephanie, who had never been yelled at by Philip before, turned pale. A bad feeling crept over her. 

Milly glanced at her and smirked. Isn’t it too late to realise now? 

Milly had a strange feeling that someone was watching her. Yet when she looked. around, she found no one staring. 

It was as if she was imagining things. 

Just then, a maid approached, breaking the tense atmosphere, and handed Philip the remote control. “Old Mr. Burnett, the news is about to start. Should I turn on the TV?”
