The Mocked Miss’s Hidden Crowns novel Chapter 469

“I heard there’s a new number one at Vanguard High. Any chance I could meet her in person?”

Dr. Larson, renowned for his work at the National Research Institute, smiled as he spoke. The room buzzed with anticipation.

Charlotte felt her stomach drop. She had no interest in being anyone’s spotlight for the night. Before she could slip away, an assistant had already handed her a microphone.

Suddenly, her face appeared on the giant screen overhead, catching her completely off guard.

“So this is Charlotte? The girl everyone says is both gorgeous and brilliant, but supposedly impossible to approach?”

“She’s unreal. Seriously, look at her.”

“Who else could make a school uniform look like designer fashion?”

“With that face and figure, she’s basically Vanguard High’s queen.”

“Charlotte, would you mind sharing your study tips with everyone?”

“Sure.” Charlotte noticed Melissa glaring at her from the stage. She met Melissa’s eyes head-on, unbothered and icy. “Just pay attention in class. Do your homework. That’s how you get first place.”

A wave of awkward silence swept over the audience. Even Andrew, who knew the real story, was at a loss for words.

On stage, Melissa stood frozen, listening to the whispers swirling around the room. She’d spent so much time digging for information about this elusive girl, and now, Charlotte had just walked right onto her stage. So this was the “once-in-a-century genius” her teachers always mentioned.

Halation. Top student. Melissa had always figured Charlotte was just a pretty face with some smarts. She never imagined she’d be this impressive. No wonder Anthony was so interested in her.
