Chapter 852


    "Then, draw another one, write down your name, and hand it in."


    Raeleigh shook her head. "Forget it. I''m not going to do it."


    "How can you do that? It''s your work. Someone stole it. We have to tell the lecturer." Scarlette was


    so excited that Raeleigh had to hold her in ce and said, "Don''t go. Leave this matter to me. I''ll go


    and hand in the drawings with you tomorrow."


    "Raeleigh, you are too unassertive. This is exactly why they pick on you."


    "I have no evidence to rify this matter. No matter who took my blueprints, once a simr one is


    submitted, then the school will mp down hard on both for giarism." Raeleigh insisted and


    Scarlette found herself speechless. In the end, the matter amounted to nothing.


    In the evening, Scarlette said to Raeleigh, "If you''re not attending the event, then there is little


    meaning for me to go, so I''ll skip it too."


    "Go and do your thing," Raeleigh said to Scarlette, who simply shook her head. It was meaningless


    for her because the drawings belonged to someone else.


    The next day, while Raeleigh was in ss, a teacher dropped by and said, "Raeleigh, could you


    pleasee out for a moment?"


    Raeleigh followed the teacher outside. She left the ssroom and asked Raeleigh, "Did you sign up


    for the car designpetition?"


    "Yes, I did sign up for it," Raeleigh replied honestly.

    The teacher was puzzled and asked, "Today is the day to submit the blueprints. Where is yours?"


    A teacher was put in charge of collecting the blueprints, or else it could allow students to hand it in


    as they pleased of their own ord. The university had a special department to deal with such


    matters.


    Raeleigh''s teacher had received a call from the principal, who said that all the students'' blueprints


    who had registered for thepetition had been submitted, all except Raeleigh and Scarlette.


    Then, the principal went to great lengths to inquire about Raeleigh and why she hadn''t submitted it.


    The emphasis on Raeleigh and theck of further mention of Scarlette implied that this was a


    matter of urgency and that there will be consequences for Raeleigh''s future.


    Her teacher''s temperament was also very mild, but the fact that Raeleigh didn''t have a blueprint still


    shocked her teacher.


    "I didn''t draw my blueprint. I am forfeiting from thepetition."


    The teacher was in a state of shock and could note back to his senses. After a long time, he


    asked, "Raeleigh, I think the school highly values your work. I''ll work something out with the school,


    so how about you go back now and concentrate on drawing out your blueprint?"


    Raeleigh shook her head. "Time is too limited. I can''t prepare it in time."


    "Raeleigh, if you don''t try, then how do you know whether it will work or not?" The bell rang and the


    students of the other sses came out, talking about the blueprints they had handed in that day.


    "The results wille out in three days. I heard that at that time, there were lots ofpeting


    talents. Those who can enter the top three may win a lot of rewards."


    The sound of these discussions were heard by Raeleigh as the students who said them passed by


    her. She did not say anything but just fixed her eyes on her teacher.


    The teacher seemed helpless. How was he going to exin this to the higher-ups?


    "Raeleigh, go back and think about it. I will try andmunicate with the school to see if they can


    extend the submission deadline for you." After the teacher spoke, he left.


    Scarlette stepped out of ss and went to Raeleigh asking her, "What''s happened, why did the


    teachere round looking for you?"


    "It''s about the blueprints."


    "What did you say then?"


    "I said that I am no longer participating, and that I am forfeiting."


    Scarlette was speechless as she thought to herself, "What a stubborn person!"


    After lunch, Raeleigh and Scarlette went to ss and the teacher came round looking for her again.


    However, Raeleigh simply said that there was not enough time and so she did not hand in the


    blueprint in the end.


    At six o''clock in the evening.


    In the principal''s office at Elkton University.


    Jepherson raised his hand to look at the time. He put down his wrist and tapped on the table. "Let''s


    call it a day."


    The principal stood opposite him and bowed politely.


    In the university principal''s office, the top ten blueprints were selected overnight. Those selected


    were indeed innovative pieces.


    At three o''clock in the morning, the drawings were delivered to Jepherson, who was in the middle of


    his break. Jepherson personally took a look at it.


    The principal was by Jepherson''s side as he looked at them one by one. Finally, he picked out three


    blueprints from them that would allow them to enter the top three.


    One of them was from Quirina Moore, one was from Deanna Whalen, and the other was from a


    male student in the university.


    The names were covered, so no one could cheat.


    However, when Jepherson saw Raeleigh''s blueprint, he smiled a very strange smile.


    Stuart breathed in sharply. Jepherson''s smile had sent shivers down his spine.


    Even the headmaster felt cold sweat on his back. He was in his sixties, but he had been on edge for


    the entire night. He didn''t know what the result was.


    "The school will pay attention to the people who made it to the top ten. The Richards Group will


    sponsor a part of the schrship, and request them to fill out the form within a week and hand it in.


    The top three participants will be invited to the Richards Group''s third quarter ball. The corporation


    would invite them to the party, and prepare some extra rewards for them.


    "Tomorrow morning, the university will hold a press conference to announce the results. At that


    time, please invite the top ten and their parents to join the award ceremony."


    Jepherson got up and handed the blueprints to Stuart. Then, he walked towards the door. The


    president wiped his sweat and immediately agreed.


    The next day, the university announced a full day''s holiday. They started preparing for the awards


    ceremony at six in the morning.


    "I heard it was personally reviewed by Young Master Richards this time. The speed of the review is


    really remarkable. Initially, it would take three days to produce the results. But someone saw that


    Young Master Richards brought more than a dozen people to review the blueprints in the


    president''s office overnight. In the end, Young Master Richards selected the first, second, and third


    cers from the ten finalists. Now, the only thing we don''t know is who the first ce drawing


    belongs to."


    Raeleigh had just sat down on the ground with Scarlette when they heard this being discussed.


    Scarlette looked unconcerned and Raeleigh too could not be bothered about thispetition.


    She was not sure where her blueprint had gone, but she just wanted to have a look.


    Soon, some distinguished people appeared in Raeleigh''s line of sight. Those people were either the


    wealthy or nobles. They were all invited to the school to attend the event.


    The principal had already called and told the parents of these students that their children had been


    in the top ten, hoping to participate in the publishing of the results in person.


    This kind of thing was very public in Capital City, so the students'' parents also cooperated with each


    other.


    The seats in the front were for the winners and the parents, while Raeleigh and the others sat in the


    back. There were a lot of car design rted decorations around them.


    Raeleigh had been staring at the surrounding arrangements. She had also contributed to the


    decoration, so she just wanted to have a look around to see if there was anything inappropriate.


    Other than that, she didn''t pay much attention to anything else.


    Quirina soon appeared in Raeleigh''s field of vision, apanied by her mother, as she wore a light


    pink dress. After Meica arrived, she started greeting several acquaintances, and then sat down in


    the seat in front of her. Meica wore a in white dress that day, as she sat in front of Quirina,


    looking elegant.


    Thest few people to enter Raeleigh''s line of sight were the Whalen siblings and a woman who


    bore much resemnce to Deanna.
