From Trash to Treasure: The Sinclair Family's Beloved Genius novel Chapter 262

Chapter 262: Chapter 262: On What Grounds?

All the students at the School of Physics were talking about whether Chloe Sinclair would be able to make it back for the exam.

"I haven’t seen Chloe Sinclair in ages. I have no idea how she’s doing. I heard there was a leak in the lab, and something happened to both Chloe Sinclair and the other personnel."

"Who’d you hear that from?"

"Do I even need to hear it from anyone? You can find out just by asking around. Besides, no matter how busy Chloe Sinclair was in the past, she always made time to come to class. But look, it’s been over half a month and we haven’t seen hide nor hair of her. If something didn’t happen to her, what did?"

"The university just told Chloe Sinclair to go home and rest. Besides, my uncle works in that lab, and he told me no one was injured or killed. You can get in legal trouble for spreading rumors, you know."

The student who had spoken immediately fell silent.

"Holy shit, Chloe Sinclair’s here!"

Just as everyone was in the middle of a heated debate, someone in the classroom shouted.

Everyone froze, their eyes instinctively turning to the door.

They saw Chloe Sinclair leaning against the doorway, panting as she asked, "I’m... I’m not late, am I?"

The students snapped back to reality. One of them, who was close to the door, shook their head. "There are still fifteen minutes before the exam starts."

Chloe Sinclair let out a long sigh of relief and sat down in her usual spot.

This was just a small monthly test, so it wasn’t a formal affair; everyone sat wherever they liked.

Not long after Chloe Sinclair had taken her seat, the professor walked in carrying a sealed packet.

Professor Myers walked in just in time to see Chloe Sinclair borrowing a pen.

He pretended not to notice and simply went over the general rules for the exam.

Everyone already knew the drill.

"Since the exam is about to begin, I’ll take attendance first."

With that, Professor Myers picked up the attendance roster and began calling out names.

"Chloe Sinclair."

Chloe Sinclair’s name was first on the list, so Professor Myers called her name first.

Three minutes later, Professor Myers reached the last name on the list and frowned.
