Chapter 377
Just as the old professor was about to leave, Yolanda rushed to ask, “Has the admission score of Summerfield College gone up?”
The professor’s gaze landed back on Yolanda, a hint of annoyance in his eyes. “I heard you won an award in a major piano competition by plagiarizing. No matter your score, our school won’t accept a student with bad character.”
The other university professors were all surprised. They had always thought of Yolanda as a polite and refined student. They couldn’t believe she would plagiarize to win an award. It was absolutely unacceptable!
Yolanda’s face turned pale instantly.
Another admissions officer also said, “Although our admission score this year is 600 points, we also don’t accept students with bad character.”
“We are the same.”
“Don’t even think about getting into our school. Even if you apply, we won’t accept students with character issues. Our principal attaches great importance to students‘ character.”
“Our principal does too.”
Hearing the teachers from these top universities express their rejection one after another, Yolanda’s face turned even paler, and she could barely stand.
Attlee was shocked, only understanding what had happened after they had left.
And when Olga saw the nanny still filming, she snapped angrily, “What are you still filming for? Haven’t we been humiliated enough?”
The neighbours enjoyed the spectacle, especially Fiona Bishop, who had previously tried to sign a contract with them. She was clearly enjoying their discomfort. Olga’s face was burning. She pulled Yolanda and whispered, to the others, “Get inside the house now.”
They all hurried into the house and locked the door.
“How could Arabella possibly be the top scorer of the college entrance exam? She must have cheated! I’m going to report her! What makes her qualified?” Olga paced anxiously around the living room.
Before anyone else could speak, Olga angrily said, “It must be her. She must have leaked what happened at the awards ceremony. How else would the teachers from these top universities know what happened that day? Don’t forget that the awards ceremony was not public!”
As she said this, Olga wished she could strangle Arabella.
“There’s no such thing as a perfectly kept secret! I don’t think it was Arabella who spilt the beans. Attlee sat on the couch, his earlier confidence and arrogance gone.
Yolanda was also upset. Her dad still trusted Arabella so much. If it wasn’t Arabella who leaked it, then who was it?
“How do you know it wasn’t her? You always take her side!” Olga stomped her foot in frustration. “You and your mom are fooled by that girl!”
“If Arabella really did tell the professor from Summerfield College, it would mean they knew each other. But that professor clearly didn’t know Arabella. He even mistook Yoli for the top scorer of this year’s college entrance exam!”
Everyone listened and thought his reasoning made sense.
“Maybe she told the professor over the phone, so he didn’t know what she looked like?” Olga suggested.
