Chapter 847


    Henry Instantly perked up and murmured, “It’s time to find out how well we did on yesterday’s paper!


    You worked on it till two in the morning, didn’t you? I wonder what score you’ll get.”


    Jared remained silent, but his expression was a dead giveaway to how equally eager he was to find


    out.


    Shortly after, Donovan made the announcement. “The first ce goes to Wendy Greene, who scored


    ny points.”


    A round of scattered, almost obligatory apuse rang out from the ss.


    Even though Wendy wasn’t well-liked, there was no denying that she was smart as a whip. As such,


    some of her ssmates were still gracious enough to give credit where credit was due.


    When the apuse died down, Donovan continued, “In the second ce, we have Terry Fuller with


    eighty-eight points.”


    Then, Donovan proceeded to announce the third and fourth ce.


    It was only at the sixth ce that Donovan finally called out Trisha’s name.


    Trisha, however, was anything but happy as she nced at Arielle’s seat.

    If Arielle were here, she‘d have easily topped the ss. I wonder if she can make it back for tomorrow‘s


    exam.


    With so many racing thoughts in her mind, Trisha couldn’t help but feel even more dismal.


    Meanwhile, Henry was still outside the ssroom, listening with bated breath for the announcement of


    Jared’s name. s, it never came.


    Left scratching his head, Henry turned to look at his friend. “Hey, did you forget to hand in your paper?”


    “No,” Jared replied with a frown. “I was the first to do so.”


    The paper was difficult, and thest question had himpletely stumped. In the end, Jared gave up


    trying to work out the answer and handed in his paper to Wendy.


    Did Wendy not submit it on purpose? But then again, she isn‘t that dumb to do something so obvious.


    Just then, Donovan spoke up again.


    “Everyone has done well, despite the difficulty level of this paper. Even thest ce holder scored


    eighty-one points, which is verymendable. However, you may have realized that I left one student


    out. Well, that’s because he scored even higher than Wendy.”


    Jared stiffened as the ss erupted into amotion.


    Then, one of the students asked the question that was on everyone’s mind, “So why won’t you


    announce his score?”


    “I had found most of the questions online and adapted them for this paper. Thest one, though, was


    set by me,” Donovan scoffed. “This student got everything but thest question right, which means he


    must have lifted the other answers online!”


    Upon hearing that, Jared’s face instantly darkened.


    Henry was no fool either. He knew Donovan was using Jared of cheating, and he wasn’t going to


    stand idly by


    The next second, Henry barged into the ssroom. “Donovan Baxter! Why would you make such an


    usation? Jared was up until the wee hours trying to finish this paper. Even while brushing his teeth


    this morning, he was still thinking about thatst question. It’s fine if you don’t like me because I’m not a


    good student anyway. But Jared has worked so hard! How dare you nder him!”


    “Henry West!” Donovan shouted as he bristled with anger. “You better watch your tone! Is this the way


    to talk to your teacher?”


    “Tell me then, is this the way to treat your student? By ndering him?”


    “nder? The two of you only got into the school through connections. Yet, curiously enough, he


    scored higher than the other elite students whom I’ve hand-picked for this ss. It’s not at all


    unreasonable to believe that he cheated, so how is that nder?”


    Before Henry could retort, Jared stepped in. “Gibby, that’s enough. Forget it!”


    “See?” Donovan said with a smirk. “Your friend’s feeling guilty.”
