As Ella’s combined and individual marks flashed on the screen, there was pin drop silence in the entire conference room.
Nobody moved or spoke for a while.
Ruby’s marks were close to Ella but she had scored a solid ’90’ in literature which was 9 marks less than Ella’s score.
Jasmine, on the other hand, had scored way less, in the 80s scale.
The silence in the room gradually shattered as people broke into gasps and whispers.
Nobody could have betted on this outcome.
Outside the conference room.
"Woah, she got famous real quick," Kade clicked his tongue.
Ruby and Kade stood at a distance and watched Ella being surrounded by a group of over-excited students. Some of them demanded academic tips while some asked her how she did it.
’’Cough..."
Hearing the sound of light coughing, Ruby and Kade turned around.
Jasmine stood behind them, with a beautifully packaged box in her hand.
Ruby slowly stepped away from them.
"This... I..." Jasmine half-bowed, extending the box towards Kade.
Kade frowned, "For me?" he examined the box closely
The girl nodded rapidly.
"I can’t accept..." Before Kade could finish showing off his ’elegant refusal style’, the girl was gone.
On the other side.
Ella was summoned to the Dean’s office.
After finally getting rid of the crowd, Ella sighed in relief and fled from there.
Just as Ella took a step inside the Dean’s office, her steps froze. Inside the place, other than Dean Mo, Jenny and Professor Grimwood, there were two other people.
Two old men who occupied the couch with impassive faces.
And Ella recognized one of them right away. Old Master King.
Adrian’s grandfather.
And suddenly, all the missing pieces of the puzzles fit. Even though everything went according to how she had wanted, things had gone too smoothly.
"With your current scores, you are more than capable of staying in the Imperial University. For that, I extend my congratulations to you,’’ The Dean started.
The Old men did not speak.
