Chapter 364


    “Nicole, how’s your preparation going?”


    Nicole looked at Ms. Emerson calmly.


    “I’ve solved all of them.”


    Nicole had never participated in a Math Olympiad back in San Joto, so she did not know if she was


    well-prepared. However, the smile on Ms. Emerson’s face indicated that she was doing fine. Ms.


    Emerson handed Nicole three more exercise books. They were all past-year Math Olympiad questions


    that could not be found on the market. The third book, in particr, was Den Hancock’s best work.


    In their school, only she and Mr. Louis — the two teachers in charge of the Math Olympiad training –


    got their hands on two copies of the book.


    She did not expect Nicole toplete all three sets of the questions without any guidance.


    ‘I underestimated Nicole,’ she thought.


    Ms. Emerson nodded satisfactorily and asked Gary to leave. She wanted to speak to Nicole privately.


    Gary frowned. He had seen Nicole’s book, and it waspletely nk. He could not understand how


    Nicole dared to spout nonsense like how she had solved all of the math problems to Ms. Emerson.


    The charming image that he had of her from yesterday’s race club meetup was gone; she was once


    again the annoying liar! Gary did not say anything but snorted. He headed back to his seat without


    sparing Nicole a nce.


    When Vivian witnessed the scene unfold, she had a look of glee in her eyes. Her eyes unconsciously


    followed Gary in hopes to have some form of interaction with him.


    Unfortunately, Gary did not look her way. His eyes were filled with rage toward Nicole. He simply


    walked past her without sparing her a nce.cz Vivian tightly gripped the hem of her dress under her


    desk.


    She looked at Nicole who had gained Ms. Emerson’s favor. She was furious.


    Ms. Emerson then told Nicole about the things she needed to watch out for during the Math Olympiad.


    After all, Gary had been through thepetition many times.


    On the other hand, Nicole seemed tock the experience. She naturally had to tell her the rules of the


    competition.


    In the end, Ms. Emerson repeated the part where participants had to write their answers with a ck


    pen.


    Nicole looked at her with a serious expression and said softly, “Don’t worry, Ms. Emerson. I’ll ace it.”


    She knew Ms. Emerson was doing this for her own good. Ms. Emerson was treating her as if she were


    a child; she found it amusing and heartwarming at the same time.


    Ms. Emerson also knew that she was going overboard. She looked embarrassed and stopped talking


    about thepetition. She then looked at Nicole with a smile and said, “By the way, the monthly test is


    in two days. All the best with your test!”


    Nicole nodded.


    She answered with a quiet yet oddly calming voice, “I will.”


    Ms. Emerson looked at her and felt gratified. Just as she was about to leave, she suddenly pped her


    forehead as if she had just remembered something. She turned to Nicole with a smile and said, “I’m so


    forgetful. Your grandma’s here to see you, Nicole. I told your family to wait outside. I ended up


    forgetting after speaking to you.”


    ‘Grandma’s here?’ she thought.


    Nicole’s cold eyes lit up a little. She quickly thanked Ms. Emerson and headed out of the ssroom.


    ‘Now that I think about it, I haven’t seen grandma for almost a month!’ she thought.

    Nicole stepped out of the ssroom and saw two people standing by the window. One of them was an


    old woman; she had graying hair and was donned in green-colored garments. That person was Mrs.


    Wace Sr.!
