In the evening, Flora made her way back to her dorm room. Shawn had sent her a flurry of messages, detailing how Dr. Jules had marched into theb to stand up for her.


    "Flora, Dr. Ray is already regretting his actions! He even said he wants to apologize to you. He''s also softened a bit, saying that if you score at least 95 in every subject in your midterms, he''ll let you back into theb."


    Leaningzily against her headboard, Flora took her time replying, mostly just reading Shawn''s enthusiastic updates. Whether she returned to theb or not didn''t really matter to her.


    Just like Jules had said, that rundownb wasn''t worth her time. Even if Dr. Ray personally begged her, she couldn''t be bothered to go back.


    But Jules was still tangled up in this mess. If she didn''t hit those 95s, Jules would look bad too.


    Tsk. She wanted to keep a low profile, but it seemed like her skills just wouldn''t let her.


    Was this situation forcing her to make another grand entrance?


    Shawn sent another message: "Flora, just focus on your studies these next few days. If you need help with anything, just ask. I''m here for you anytime!" Flora replied: "Thanks, senior."


    After wishing her goodnight, Shawn pondered for a moment and decided topile some study materials for her. He knew who had set the midterm paper and was familiar with that teacher''s style, so he could predict the questions and give Flora a precise range to study.


    He really wanted to help Flora. After spending so many days together, he had grown quite fond of her.


    It was one in the morning by the time he finished organizing pages of key points. Strangely, Shawn didn''t feel tired at all. Despite staying upte these past few days, he always felt refreshed and stronger than before.


    How odd. Could it be that the sachet Flora gave him actually worked wonders?


    ...


    Instead of theb, Flora tagged along with Eilies and Cynthia to attend sses. When she walked in, her ssmates'' expressions were a mix of surprise and curiosity.


    Flora actually came to ss.Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDra/ma.O(r)g!


    It seemed what Libby had said was true; Flora had really been kicked out of the medicalb.


    Truth be told, most of them were secretly delighted. When Flora had entered the medicalb, they were all resentful, feeling she didn''t deserve it. Now that she was expelled, they took smug satisfaction in seeing a "genius" fall from grace.


    "Hey, Flora, why aren''t you in the medicalb today? Decided to grace us with your presence in ss instead?"


    "Flora''s always been part of this ss. Why wouldn''t she be here?" Cynthia snapped, unable to hold back any longer. Her cherubic face showed a hint of anger. "Do you know her that well? Go back to your own seat."


    "Getting defensive, aren''t we? Hit a nerve?"


    The girl was a friend of Libby''s, and just like Libby, she couldn''t stand Flora. Now with a chance to humiliate her, she didn''t hold back.


    "Flora, if you knew this would happen, why bother in the first ce? Clearlycking the ability, but you had to sneak into theb through the back door. Now you''re kicked out like a stray dog. Aren''t you ashamed?"


    Eilies''s face darkened, ready to throw a book, when a voice rang out from the door.


    "Did you soak your mouth in a toilet? Because all I hear is crap!"


    The sharp female voice was seething with anger. At the door stood Brianna, Ivan, and over a dozen others.


    The news of Flora being expelled from the medicalb had spread like wildfire through every department of the University of Maple Grove. Now, everyone saw Flora as a joke.


    Ivan, worried about Flora, had decided toe and check on her.
