Kaya’s countenance, however, paled, contorted by a mix of disbelief and envy. Fourth position was her


    lot, rendering her ineligible for the Thomas Group-a reality she now faced with a blush of humiliation.


    “See it, Kaya, ranked fourth. Thomas Group’s gates barred her.”


    “Yes, so resolute in critique moments past, now undone by the same hand.”


    Kaya’s re, brimming with indignation, settled upon Millie. An alliance of embarrassment and


    resentment took root within her.


    Millie cast a lone shadow at the summit. Kaya’s torment had its roots in witnessing Millie’s academic


    triumph.


    “Observe, for the top three, join thepany next month.”


    The second and third ranks, usually shrouded in modesty, shared a celebratory gesture, intoxicated by


    the fruits of their Labor. At Last, their endeavor yielded its due reward.

    “May I scrutinize my paper?” Kaya’s resolve was unshaken, and her hand ascended in request.


    “Of course.” Receiving her script, Kaya’s scrutiny uncovered a query marred by a five-point deduction.


    Inparison to the correct solution, her responsecked thorough boration, warranting the


    penalty.


    “Mr. Thomas, might I inspect the scripts of the top three? The posed question posed an arduous


    challenge, leading her to forfeit a portion of the attainable points. Laden with doubt, she harbored


    skepticism that the trio could masterfully conquer itsplexities.


    Particrly in Millie’s case, a notion crept in that Marcus might have extended assistance in a manner


    akin to cheating.


    “Peruse these three scripts, for they belong to the triumphant trio. Feel free to review them,” Marcus


    stated, extending an invitation.


    With discerning precision, Marcus singled out these three assessment documents.


    Kaya’s hopes faltered as she perused the trio of examination papers, only to find no discrepancies in


    their responses. The consensus among them was one of genuine conviction. Millie’s performance


    stood out, having secured a perfect score; her solutions were not only urate but also presented


    immactely, rendering her paper wless.


    As Marcus exited the ssroom to answer a phone call, restlessness seized Kaya. She directed a


    hissing inquiry toward Millie, with a venomous edge to her voice.


    “Guys, have you not detected the oddity? How can Millie exin her perfect score? She doesn’t


    possess an education levelparable to ours, yet her score remains wless.”


    Kaya’s malicious insinuation echoed, capturing the attention of their peers.


    “Kaya, what are you implying?” “She must have obtained foreknowledge of the questions and answers


    by memorizing them prior.”


    “Is that even feasible?”


    “Absolutely, her husbandposed the test. Undoubtedly, she watched as he devised it. This test


    lacks fairness entirely.”


    Kaya’s usatory tone reverberated, with a chorus of doubtful murmurs emerging in its wake. Millie’s


    brow furrowed; her apprehensions had borne fruit.


    “Contrary to your spections, I didn’t pre-memorize the answers. I had notid eyes on any of the


    questions prior to the test.”
