"Flora is just incredible! How does she know so much?" Cynthia yelled, her voice cutting through the noise.
Jillian clutched her jeans tightly, her eyes, a deep crimson, locked on the radiant Flora on stage. Flora's brilliance went far beyond anything Jillian had ever imagined.
Flora was just too impressive, too formidable... With her at the University of Maple Grove, Jillian knew she'd always be in her shadow.
Amidst the cheering and screaming, Flora descended from the stage with composed grace. The counselor and the event coordinator both exhaled in relief. This time, Flora had genuinely scared them. She was so good, she drew too much attention. Having her at such a large event was like inviting a ticking time bomb.
After Flora, the freshman representative, finished her speech, it was time for the school leaders to conclude. Everyone was still buzzing from Flora's electrifying performance, paying little attention to the leaders' words, too engrossed in excited chatter.
After the ceremony, Flora, Eilies, Cynthia, and Jillian were all asked to stay behind. The malicious swapping of the speech script was a serious matter. If Flora hadn’t improvised so well, the University of Maple Grove would have faced national embarrassment.
"Why did the speech turn into this?" The counselor slammed the heavily marked-up paper on the table, his sharp gaze sweeping over Jillian, Eilies, and Cynthia. "I'm giving you one last chance. If no one admits to it, I'll have to report this to the school and involve the police. You understand how serious that will be."
Since Flora's speech was either in her dorm room or with her, her roommates were the prime suspects.
