Chapter 50 The Top Score
Larissa was doing what she always did–sleeping with her head on the desk.
Helping Wesley with hypnosis the night before had drained her. She needed real rest.
The Faculty Office.
All the 12th–grade teachers were gathered in the shared office.
Chloe and Daphne both cared deeply about the midterm results, but for very different reasons.
Chloe wanted Larissa gone as soon as possible.
Daphne was worried Larissa might really be forced to leave.
The other teachers stayed neutral. It did not affect their classes.
Joseph walked in with the score rankings in his hand.
Chloe stepped forward at once. “Mr. Potter, I want to know, how did Larissa do?”
Daphne also looked at him, clearly worried.
Joseph’s usually serious face broke into a rare smile. “Take a look for yourselves.”
At the top of the list was Larissa: 745 points. She ranked as the top scorer in the entire school.
The office went silent. The school had just produced a total game–changer.
She lost only five points in language class. Every other subject was a perfect score.
Someone like that had been mocked as a bad student.
If this were a statewide standardized exam on a 750–point scale, she would be a national top scorer.
This was the first time their school had ever seen a score this high.
Even now, Joseph felt like he was dreaming.
If a student like her were expelled from Marcrest High, it would be the school’s biggest loss.
This time, Larissa had completely shut down those parents who doubted her.
She was clearly meant for bigger things.
It was hard to imagine how she had done it.
No wonder she had chosen to enter directly into 12th grade.
She had the confidence to back it up.

Chapter 50 The Top Score
A student like her would be fought over by every homeroom teacher.
A city–wide, state–wide, or even national top scorer brought real honor.
Joseph could not help wondering, would Chloe regret her decision now?
After all, she had personally turned Larissa away before.
Chloe stared at the paper. Her face turned pale. Shock and regret filled her eyes.
She never imagined that the student she wanted to drive out would score this high.
“This can’t be real,” she said, her voice shaking.
No.Absolutelyimpossible.

Daphne, on the other hand, looked overjoyed. Her eyes were full of relief and pride.
She had not expected such an incredible result.
It was a wonderful surprise.
The news spreads. Word of Larissa’s score spread across campus fast.
Students who had mocked her before all fell silent. Their faces burned with embarrassment.
Finished
The kid who once announced he would apologize if Larissa won the bet now wished the ground would open up and swallow him.
Back in the classroom, Larissa was still asleep at her desk, unaware of everything happening outside.
Only when the class bell rang did she slowly wake up.
Nancy leaned over, eyes shining with excitement.
“Larissa! You got first place in the whole school–745 points! That’s insane! You’re amazing. Now I get it. That’s why you never listen in class and always sleep. No one would dare to laugh at your grades now? I’m just waiting for those parents who bet against you to apologize.”
Another classmate chimed in excitedly.
“Wow! Larissa, you hid this way too well. You crushed second place by more than 20 points. Class A used to be the top class in 12th grade. All the best students were there. But now that you’re in Class C, it’s our turn
to shine.”
