Really pushing it to this extent, huh?”

Vivian’s voice wasn’t soft, and at least everyone in the room heard it.

ncluding Calvin.

le remained indifferent, showing no emotion, as if Eliza’s situation didn’t concern him at all.

lis attention was solely on Medea.

While others discussed Eliza, he turned to Medea and asked, “Are you nervous?”

efore Medea could answer, Vivian quickly responded on her behalf. “She’s already a Ph.D. in finance. A mere graduate exam can’t possibly faze her. She’s not

ervous at all.”

Medea, clearly more humble than Vivian, lowered her gaze. “Don’t say that. Matt’s graduate program is tough.”

ivian pouted proudly. “Cousin, you’re just too modest. You’ve been exceptional since you were young, always getting first place every year. Your abilities speak or themselves! Not everyone can get an offer from the WT Business School.”

ven Gideon chimed in, “Cousin, stop being modest. Leave a little space for us losers!”

I turned out that the more outstanding someone was, the more humble they became.

adeon admired Medea’s confidence, knowing she was capable without needing to boast.

s for Eliza…

ideon glanced in her direction, his expression hard to describe.

le hoped that when she fell, she wouldn’t cry in pain!

night, everyone, let’s wrap this up. Time’s almost up. I’ll go inside now, and you all can get back to whatever you need to do, especially Calv. There’s still a list I work to be done at the company. Don’t wait for me. I’ll head straight to the office after the exam,” Medea said, glancing at the time before speaking to Calvin

It’s fine. We’ll wait for you,” Calvin replied succinctly.

brian, a bat sor, added, “Cousin, how could he not wait for you? He always puts you first!”

You talk too mur. Medra teased Vivian, but inwardly, she was quite pleased

efore going teside, she gave Calvin a hug, dearly reluctant to leave

J the school gate

liza had just passed through the security check and was waving at Josh

ter gaze inevitably caught sight of the doarly ratwined couple not more than five meters away–Calvin and Medica

he hadn’t intended to pay attention

But as she turned her gaze away, her eyes met Calvine.

she didn’t linger, simply turning and heading into the school, not sparing a second to hate the expans Calvin’s Face

Since Eliza and Medea were both taking the entrance exam under the same advisor, they were in the same examinatiiä

The exam had two parts.

Chapter 274

One was the national exam.

he other was a self designed exam by Matt himself.

he self designed exam was scheduled for the morning.

was quite difficult, and most of the candidates were deeply focused on writing.

he three hour exam was quite tight, and yet, someone turned in their paper 40 minutes early.

1 such cases, it could either mean they couldn’t answer the questions and gave up, or that they were a genius who found the questions too easy.

ledea glanced up.

Then she saw Eliza, she wasn’t surprised at all.

early, Eliza belonged to the former group.

he simply smiled derisively and lowered her head to continue the exam.

Then Eliza came out, she bumped into Matt, who was on his rounds.

e was accompanied by Xander.

iza reflexively turned to leave.

ut before she could make her escape, Matt called after her. “Stop.”

eing she couldn’t slip away, Eliza turned back and smiled awkwardly. “Professor Adams.”

att looked at her with a cold expression, checking his watch. “Forty minutes early, huh? What, couldn’t answer the questions, so you turned it in early?”

iza scratched her head, suddenly feeling a bit awkward in her student role. “I checked it three times.”

att snorted, “Should I praise you for that?”

Eliza didn’t dare to respond.

he reason she said that was because, in the past, she would only check her paper once before handing it in.

le would even turn in her papers early every time.

fter being caught by Matt a few times, he strictly required her to check it three times from start to finish and never to turn it in more than forty minutes early

liza had crossed the line!

she didn’t have another exam in the afternoon, Matt would’ve lectured her

le barely let her off with a warning “No turning in early for the afternoon esam!”

Got it”

fatt walked off, hands behind his bark, continuing his rounds.

is Xander walked past her on his way out, he gave her a cold, derisive glance

When it came to education and knowledge, Medea completely overshadowed Eliza

He had seen Medea’s papers when she was in business school

fer academic level was very high, and they were often used by his professors as supplementary reading materials.

Chapter 274

It was obvious that Eliza was going to fail this time.

Before Eliza had even left the school, she ran into Josh.

He hadn’t left, and in fact, had predicted that she would finish early, so he had waited for her outside the exam hall.

I’ve reserved a restaurant. let’s go eat.”

Okay. Eliza agreed readily.

hey chatted and laughed as they walked out.

When they passed by the small playground outside the exam hall, they encountered Calvin and his group.

t seemed they had come to pick up Medea.

I was quite a grand scene, with a lot of people involved.

leither Eliza nor Josh paid much attention. Josh didn’t even greet anyone, heading straight for the exit.

nly Vivian, as Eliza passed, shot her a glare.

ut Eliza didn’t even notice, much less care.

ideon, remembering the gossip he had overheard, shared it with his group.

just met a friend who’s a teaching assistant at Washington University. He’s two years ahead of Eliza, and he told me something interesting. Want to hear it?”

ivian, always eager to gossip, asked, “Is it about Eliza? Tell us!”

My friend said that Eliza, back in college, ranked dead last in her class.”

Dead last?!” Vivian was stunned.

How could she have the confidence to apply for Matt’s graduate program?”

ideon diuckled mockingly.

his would definitely get to Medea, who walked out just then and headed straight towards them.

What are you will talking abour? Laughing so happily? Medea asked curiously.

ivian, eager to share the juicy gossip, quickly spalled, “Gideon’s friend said that Eliza used to rank first in her class every year,”

teden paused for a moment.

The land that ranked last first Halilin

fedea smiled. Last first? How did she even get into Everest then?

though Everest was a small company back then, Calvin had always valued talent. Everyone who worked alongside him was exceptional in their field,

Of course, she must have used some underhanded meanst

Gideon was the most qualified to speak on this.

fe was the first to know!

Vivian, not knowing the full story, pressed, “What underhanded means? Tell me more!

As long as it was something scandalous about Eliza, she wanted to know!
