Chapter 77
Raine flinched when reprimanded.
She never expected these two matters would take a sudden turnabout.
Norah was upset and desperate because Raine and Snow could not even win the argument with Nicole; they were useless in her eyes.
She gritted her teeth and said, “Absolutely.
We shouldn’t take things on the school forum too seriously.
Other than Nicole’s zero scores on the Math Olympiad test, the other things are simply hearsay.” Norah’s words might have overturned everything else, but it reminded Raine.
“Absolutely.
Everything else can be fake, but the results can’t be fake.
She really scored zero.
The post is at the top of the school forum.”
Mr.
Riddle Sr.
became serious when he looked at Nicole.
“Is this true?”
The atmosphere tensed up this time.
Daniel and Gloria looked at their daughter, hoping Nicole would explain that it was fake, as she had just done.
Samuel and Spencer were so busy in the school societies every day and were unaware of it.
So they did not know how to defend her.
It did not matter, though, because Nicole had admitted it.
“Yes, I scored zero.”
Raine could not help but laugh upon hearing this.
She could not believe that Nicole was bold enough to admit it in this situation.
“You finally admit it.” She smiled triumphantly, waiting to see how things would end.
But Nicole gave no further explanation.
Damien was upset.
He looked at Nicole with his brows knitted together.
“Aren’t you going to explain what is going on?” Norah could not describe how elated she was when Nicole was finally being put on the spot.
But she still pretended to comfort her.
“We all know that the Math Olympiad competition is tough.
Even Raine has only scored ninety-one marks.
If you can’t keep up, tell the teacher that you will withdraw from the competition.
Don’t be so thick-skinned to stay on only to embarrass the Riddle family.”
Raine also added fuel to the fire.
“Yeah, Nicole, withdrawal is a better option when you are not up to par.
Don’t embarrass yourself.”
Mr.
Riddle Sr.’s face was grave as he saw Nicole appear to be nonchalant.
“Nicole, since you can’t keep up, tell your teacher that you will withdraw from the competition and concentrate on preparing for the monthly exam.”
“I am not going to quit.” Nicole looked at Mr.
Riddle Sr.
with a determined look on her face.
Mr.
Riddle Sr.
looked at her and felt a strange pressure from her gaze.
But she was only a teenager.
Ignoring her gaze, he said with irritation.
“I will talk to your teacher.
You just concentrate on preparing for the exam and forget about the Math Olympiad competition.
Don’t forget that you have scored zero.”
Damien and Dillon also nodded.
