“Oh, you mean that?” Jamie patted his chest and said, “Don’t worry, Boss. I didn’t expose you even the slightest. Rest assured and please carry on your disguise in peace.”
“Okay.” Then, Elise gave him one final reminder. “Let’s keep in touch on the phone from now on. The Griffiths will be suspicious if they see you.”
“Understood.” With those words, Jamie left in a jiffy.
Before Jamie could go far, Elise saw Danny going her way the moment she turned around. Her heart skipped a beat and she almost dropped the document in her hand.
She stiffened up for a moment and calmly passed by Danny on the way back to their classroom.
Huh? Is this it?
She didn’t expect the Math Olympiad competition to have such a low difficulty. It seems like I’ve overestimated this school.
Elise flipped through the questions and stuffed them into the drawer under her table after a while. Needless to say, she didn’t need to worry about the competition at all.
……
The school started a tutoring class specially for the students participating in the Math Olympiad, with those including Nicole and Danny.
And so, Elise could see Nicole taking the opportunity to talk to Danny every day, with the excuse of asking him to help her study. However, he mercilessly turned down all of her requests.
Soon, the one week of tutoring classes came to an end, and the Math Olympiad began.
The students of the school were all confident for Nicole to take the win.
“She came in first last year. She’s definitely going to win this year as well. How uninteresting.”
“Yeah, it’d be great if someone can bring her down this time around, but probably no one can do that.”
Elise didn’t know people would be so envious of the winner!
