Coolest Girl in Town (Elise and Alexander) novel Chapter 599

Chapter 599 Hopeless

“Good.” Martin nodded in relief. He then swept his gaze over the entire class and asked, “Who else?”

Once they were shortlisted in the Know-All Competition, they would have to attend the final at the TV station. Except for Sophie, who was used to attracting people’s attention, none of the other students wanted to be given that much attention. Hence, they lowered their heads and remained silent.

At this moment, they were behaving similarly to those from the normal class, being chatty and noisy when there were no questions posed, but remaining silent once the teacher began asking questions.

“Fine. None of you is willing to participate, right?” It was not Martin’s first time facing such a situation, and he was well-prepared. He took out a box he had prepared earlier and placed it atop of the podium, saying, “We’ll draw votes then. Come up and draw your vote one by one, beginning with the first group. Those who get a star will represent the entire class to shine brightly at the competition.”

Given what he said, all of the students had no choice but to line up to draw votes.

Elise was the last in the line. After getting her vote paper, she immediately opened it up beside the podium.

Luckily, there was nothing on it.

Hence, she placed the vote paper on the podium and went back to her seat.

“Mr. Kamp, I got it.” A guy wearing spectacles raised his hand and showed his vote paper, which bore a star.

“Mica got it too!” a female student exclaimed.

Following that, Elise’s desk-mate, a slightly plump girl, raised her hand too and displayed her vote paper.

Elise thought the name sounded familiar. Hence, she turned to look at Mica, and she vaguely noticed a hint of helplessness on Mica’s face.

“That’s great. The class monitor will lead the team and everyone else in the team should cooperate with each other. I’ll brief you about the details of the competition after class,” Martin said decisively before starting his lesson.

The class was over in no time. When the bell rang, Martin packed his teaching materials and began nagging, “The lesson isn’t difficult at this point. Students who have high expectations of themselves can try to do some exercises on their own. Physics is a subject in which you need to work hard and think a lot, especially for those who have a poor foundation…”

His words came to a halt here, and he subconsciously raised his head to look at the last row in the class.

However, the seats of Elise, Sheldon, and Elliot were long empty.

Seeing that, Martin put on a solemn expression and shook his head. They’re just hopeless, he thought.

Poor students would always remain poor. No matter how hard he tried to push them, they would never take it seriously.

“Class is over!”

Elise returned to her house to conduct a body check-up on Laura. Then, she accompanied both the elders for a meal before she went back to the school.

When she was transferred to the Elite Class, her hostel was changed as well. So far, she hadn’t been there yet. Since Alexander had something on tonight, she intended to stay at the hostel.

Martin was right; the Elite Class was provided the best resources by the school. Her new hostel had only two people in a room, meaning that she would only need to deal with one roommate.

Dragging her luggage behind her, she opened the door of the hostel room, and she smelled a faint floral scent. When she walked in, she noticed that the bed on the left side had been tidied up with personal belongings placed on it. The bed on her right was empty, but it appeared to her that it had also been cleaned, as there was no dust on the bedstead.

Seeing that, Elis couldn’t help but be grateful as she thought that her new roommate was a helpful person.

“You’re here.” The door of the toilet swung open. Mica walked over to her bed while saying, “Because you arrived later than me, I tidied up your place while I was tidying mine. You just need to put on bedsheets, and then you can sleep on it.”

“Thank you,” Elise said smilingly.

“You’re welcome.” Mica forced a smile. She was probably in a bad mood because after she sat down on her chair, she turned her back to face Elise and said nothing more.

Elise guessed that Mica was frustrated over the Know-All Competition.

Since Mica had tidied her place for her, she would definitely help Mica out if she asked for it.
