Coolest Girl in Town (Elise and Alexander) novel Chapter 654

Chapter 654 Stefan Likes Elise?

Suppose that Martin had held on to the last shreds of hope before this, fervently praying that Elise’s results would be so terrible that she voluntarily withdrew from the Elite Class. In that case, it could be said that he completely lost all hope after seeing the huge number of ticks on her test paper.

After repeatedly checking the answers on the test paper twice, he glanced at the test sheet in front of him with a total score of almost ninety and fell into deep thought. The exam questions this time were much more challenging than the tests at the opening of the school year. Such scores would easily be ranked among the top five at the very least. In other words, Elise met the assessment criteria and did not need to leave the Elite Class.

This might have proven that Elise had extraordinary learning capabilities. Even so, he could never manage the Elite Class freely as long as she was in the class. What’s more, she was much too independent and eccentric. She would not allow him to take advantage of her and might even cause trouble for him in the future. Keeping somebody like that around for an extra day would give him a terrible headache, let alone a few more months.

When that thought crossed his mind, he turned to look at the pen holder on his desk. Then, after two seconds, he took out a water-based pen, leaned against the desk, and quietly added a few more strokes to her answer sheet.

——

The next day, the first monthly exam results were finally released. Mason stood on the podium and glanced at Elise, who was sitting at the back of the classroom with a regretful look in his eyes. Only then did he look back down at the academic record in his hands and opened his mouth to speak.

“In this monthly exam, many of you have shown great improvement. But, unfortunately, there are no gatherings without parting in this world. According to the rules set up when this Elite Class was established, half of the students will have to leave this class.” He paused at this point and took off his glasses before continuing, “The names that I read out after this will remain in this class and move forward with the teacher. For those whose names I did not call out, you will return to your original departments and continue your studies there after this class. Zacharias Chandler, Vicki Linwood… And, the last person is Sheldon Keller.”

“Yes!” Sheldon couldn’t help pumping his fist excitedly when he heard his name. The exercise booklet that Mr. Young gave was amazing indeed.

“Little Sheldon, this concubine can’t bear to leave you!” Elliot playfully pressed his body against Sheldon.

“Don’t worry, my dear concubine. I will be sure to visit you when I am free.” Sheldon played along.

The two of them had been classmates for years, so they were reluctant at the thought of being separated.

Some were happy, and some were sad. Half of the students who had been eliminated were downcasted as they quietly packed up their things.

Mason felt uncomfortable at the sight, but he pulled himself together and encouraged the rest. “Students, the Elite Class is not the final destination in your life. On the contrary, it is just the beginning. Failing once in an exam does not mean anything. You are the best student in my heart. The world belongs to you. This vast sky belongs to you. I believe that you will be able to create a place where you belong as long as you don’t give up.”

His words lifted the students’ morale, and the atmosphere in the classroom was no longer as gloomy as before.

Sheldon looked at Mason, feeling grateful that he could meet such a good teacher. Then, after he thought about it again, he suddenly realized something. Why don’t I remember hearing Elise’s name just now? Her abilities are better than mine. Don’t tell me she made a mistake this time?

He turned around suspiciously and saw the same bewilderment on Elise’s face. Thus, he felt even more puzzled than before.

The invigilator for this exam is Mr. Young. He is also the one who tallied the scores, so there shouldn’t be a situation where someone did not mark the test papers like last time. Don’t tell me she actually scored badly this time? If that’s the case, then won’t she be leaving the Elite Class just like how Martin wishes?

“Little Sheldon, this concubine is so sad. It’s been so long since you’ve doted on me. You have to come to my room tonight, but you’re not allowed to leave!” Elliot was not bothered by the fact that he failed to remain in the Elite Class. At the moment, all he wanted to do was drag Sheldon out to party all night with him. However, Sheldon had a change of heart recently and was only focused on studying. Therefore, Elliot felt like he had been neglected for a long time. Now that the results were out, he could finally relax.

“Stop making a fuss.” Sheldon pushed Elliot aside. Stretching his neck, he leaned toward Elise and whispered, “Boss, are you alright? Do you want me to go and beg Mr. Young for another chance?”

Elise smiled meaningfully and did not reply to him.

At this moment, Stefan suddenly stood up. “Mr. Young, I would like to request a re-calculation of the scores.”
