Chapter 331

There is nothing to fear if Myrna cannot secure a recommendation. She was actually very concerned, but pretended otherwise. She asked softly, “By the way, Lawsy, are you sure Myrna wants to be admitted to Craydon University? Her grades make it a bit difficult for her to be admitted, right?”

Myrna’s grades were not good. At least before attending Melcester Central High School, they were only barely sufficient for college admission. I was able to secure a place at Hebbury College of Art in the past, mainly due to family connections. Additionally, my academic performance was good, and I had received various piano awards. However, even with these advantages, I still needed Olivia’s help to barely obtain the scholarship.

Myrna, who had always performed poorly, managed to excel in the previous assessment and achieved the top position in the entire school. Given her previous record, why would Craydon University take notice of her? That was Emilee! She thought the same as Lawson. They all refused to believe it was true.

Lawson’s mood plummeted, as if he had been slapped. When he heard her gentle tone again, he was annoyed. “I don’t know, but she will attend this independent enrollment.” That means the recommendation was unsuccessful!

Stephanie secretly breathed a sigh of relief and pretended regret, saying, “It was quite difficult for Craydon University to admit students through independent enrollment. Actually, it would have been better for her to be admitted through guaranteed admission. After all… her grades were not good.”

I used to live in a small area of Melcester, where the most impressive school was Melcester Central High School. It was only after coming to Nemmington that I understood the saying, “There are always people better than you, and there are always things beyond your reach.”

Over the past month, she studied hard and can now score at least 580 in her academic subjects. This score would put her in the top ten in Melcester. Nemmington was just okay.

However, she took the artistic path, and with a score of 580—considered high—coupled with her talent, she had an 80% chance of securing a place in Craydon University’s independent enrollment quota this time. The remaining 20% depends on whether any dark horses emerge.

“I heard there will be many people at this self-admission event. Melcester Central High School is simply not impressive enough in front of these top students. Myrna, she is still too stubborn.” Since our last falling out, she hasn’t had the audacity to call me sister anymore. Too fake.

That day, it became such a mess that she called her sister again, pretending to have no grudges. Not only did outsiders not believe it, she herself didn’t believe it either. Since it all began, Stephanie thought clearly that she and Myrna were not meant to be on the same path. Since they couldn’t get along happily, they would rely on their own abilities to see who could climb higher and faster.

Since Myrna foolishly rejected the opportunity to be admitted to Craydon University, there is nothing to fear. After all, I had been studying in Nemmington for so long, while Myrna was stuck in that small place called Melcester. What could she achieve?

She didn’t care about Myrna and instead flirted with the person on her phone, smiling, “Lawsy, will you come back to Nemmington on the day of the independent admissions?” Lawson felt extremely conflicted upon hearing her voice, and the taste of his drink was unpleasant. “I… will.”

“I was a school volunteer and that day I was responsible for reception at the school.” “Really? That’s great! I would go to school early, hoping to run into you~” The girl’s voice on the phone was soft and sweet, filled with joy. One would expect to feel extremely satisfied, but Lawson felt only disappointment.

He just grunted, and it seemed like someone was urging Stephanie on the other side. Lawson heard her say with an excited voice, “See you on the day of the exam.” After saying that, he quickly hung up.
