Chapter 196
Under everyone’s amazed and envious gazes, Bianca smiled modestly and lonked toward Sotra Moore sitting in
Sofia, since I’m participating through Mr. Kingsley’s recommendation, I wont take up one of the school’s spots calligraphy class average ranking is eighth – with me out, you’ll move up and he selected.
Sofia was immediately excited when she heard this.
Right – if Bianca didn’t take a spot, then she could participate!
“Thank you, Bianca, you’re so good!”
Sofia looked at Bianca gratefully.
Everyone sighed at how considerate Bianca was of her classmates.
“Bianca is such a good person! She’s so kind!”
“How can there be such a beautiful and thoughtful girl? If I were a boy, I’d definitely like her!”
Bianca loved the feeling of being surrounded by everyone.
It was at times like these that she could vividly sense how Isabella was being crushed under her foot, barely surviving.
So what if Isabella was the real daughter of the Taylor Family?
The whole world revolved around her, Bianca!
However, on Friday afternoon, cold water was thrown in Bianca’s face.
Kellan had Claire announce the list of participants for the calligraphy competition, and Isabella’s name was prominently on it.
Her name was sandwiched among a group of international program students – out of place, yet so eye-catching.

Some people would curiously ask why Isabella was on it. More people/showed expressions of disbelief.

Is it because Isabella got first place on the exam?”
“That’s ridiculous. What does getting first on an exam have to do with a calligraphy competition? Do good grades give you bonus points? Writing characters and writing on test papers are two different things.”
“I don’t know why, but seeing her name makes me feel like our international program privileges are being threatened. We didn’t pay thirty thousand dollars a year in tuition for nothing – why should our international program resources be given to people from the regular program?”
Calligraphy class was only for the international program – of course they needed to draw a clear line from those ordinary people in the regular program.
Yet Sofia, whose calligraphy class average ranked eighth, couldn’t get a spot to compete, but the spot went to someone from the regular program instead. Everyone was furious.
When Sofia learned the news, she lay on her desk crying, because she had told her family in advance that she could participate in the calligraphy competition. Her family was very happy and specially called all their relatives to go to a restaurant to celebrate.
Now the hope was dashed, and she didn’t know how to explain it to her family when she got home.
