The crowd automatically made way for Mrs. Grant at this moment.
Mrs. Grant’s mental fortitude completely collapsed. ƒгeewebnovёl.com
She refused to believe anyone’s words and directly rushed down that path to the bulletin board, looking straight at the second-place name. fгeewёbnoѵel.cσm
There, glaringly, were the words "Willow Grant."
Mrs. Grant’s eyes suddenly widened, her pupils shrinking in shock to a pinpoint.
Her Willow really wasn’t first!
It turned out, it wasn’t that her Willow had outscored the second place by over twenty points, but that she was outscored by over twenty points.
Over twenty points! In the context of college entrance exams, how many thousands of places could that knock her down?
Mrs. Grant’s pupils trembled. In that instant, it was as if all the strength in her body had been drained away; she lost her strength and collapsed to the ground.
The bodyguards watching from a short distance away saw this and rushed over to help Mrs. Grant up.
"Madam, are you okay? How do you feel?"
This shout snapped Mrs. Grant back to her senses a little.
She leaned on the bodyguard’s hand to steady herself, just as her phone rang.
She reached out to answer it, hearing the bodyguard on the other end report: "Madam, Mrs. Knight is trying to leave through the back gate of the school."
"Stop her! (Don’t let her come over to me)"
"Yes!" came the response before the call ended after the words "stop her."
"Quick! Stop Mrs. Knight!"
At the command, two bodyguards immediately stepped forward to stop Susan Stone.
"What do you think you’re doing?" Susan Stone frowned, her own bodyguards quickly closing ranks behind her.
Susan had only brought two bodyguards on this visit, thinking it’d be easier to slip away quickly with fewer people.
With three against two, the atmosphere grew tense and domineering.
The Grant family’s bodyguard stepped forward and said, "Mrs. Knight, our madam is still waiting for you. You weren’t planning to leave without saying something to her, were you?"
"I..." Susan was taken aback and said, "I wasn’t planning to leave; I just suddenly felt a bit hungry and thought of going out to buy some bread."
"Oh..." The bodyguard nodded and said, "Then why don’t you go see our madam; we can bring some bread to you."
Another bodyguard chimed in, "Yes, didn’t the madam also bring plenty of baked pastries along? You can also have those; there’s no need to go out yourself."
Susan’s expression darkened, and she even considered flipping out.
But recalling the Knight Group’s project in Rivain, she restrained her anger and said with a dark face, "Fine, I understand. I’ll go over now, okay?!"
The Grant family’s bodyguard only then resumed a friendly demeanor, respectfully gesturing "please."
Susan Stone had never been subjected to such indignities in her life, and she even thought, regardless of Summer Monroe being just a beggar, she’d rather choose Summer over Willow Grant.
After all, Summer Monroe had never treated her with such an attitude!
"Get out of my sight! I’ll go, but I don’t want to see any of you again!" Susan growled in low anger.
The three bodyguards exchanged glances and said with smiles, "We’ll keep our distance then."
As they spoke, they indeed moved far away, as they said they would, but didn’t leave entirely.
Susan Stone, gritting her teeth in anger, stepped towards the bulletin board at the front entrance.
By the bulletin board.
Mrs. Grant had no interest in seeing who was first; she just wanted to find Willow Grant immediately to ask what had happened for her to score so much lower than the top student.
"Where’s the young lady? Is class over?"
"Replying to madam, the young lady’s class just let out, and her classmates are all headed this way."
