How a Dying Woman Rewrote Her Epilogue novel Chapter 334

Elodie hadn’t spent an extraordinary amount of time preparing for these exams, but she’d been thorough enough—reviewing everything that needed reviewing and making sure she had all her bases covered.

For her, it was almost effortless.

She and Sylvie were in the same program, taking the test in the same room.

Elodie finished early, standing up to turn in her paper a full thirty minutes before time was up.

Sylvie, of course, noticed.

She glanced over, shaking her head as if she’d seen this coming.

The first subject that day was a core requirement for their major.

Elodie handing in her paper early? To Sylvie, it could only mean she’d given up—either she couldn’t answer the questions or simply didn’t care enough to try.

No point in wasting time, Sylvie thought. Elodie shouldn’t have bothered showing up at all if this was how she was going to act.

There was something about Elodie’s attitude that Sylvie just couldn’t understand. Why try to show off for no reason?

Sylvie pressed her lips together in silent disapproval, feeling more certain than ever about her low expectations for Elodie.

When Elodie walked out, Esmeralda was already waiting just outside the door. Seeing Elodie stroll out with that calm, unbothered air, Esmeralda grinned and called out, “Come on! Lunch is on me today—something fancy!”

Elodie didn’t spare a thought for Sylvie’s reactions.

She relaxed, heading off with Esmeralda and the others for a celebratory meal.

The following days passed in a blur of exams, one after the other.

Her interview went smoothly, too.

Now, all that was left was to wait for the results.

It would take a week or two before the scores were posted.
