Chapter 293: Chapter 293: That One from the Wesleys...

Chapter 293

Aria casually ate and said, "Chloe Collins, I’m not optimistic about her. She is lazy and doesn’t like studying. How can she have good results? She may only get a third prize at most."

Tristan Collins’s eyes dimmed, and his aura turned solemn.

Madam Foley and the others lowered their heads and laughed, both at Aria’s blunt words and at Chloe Collins.

At this time, the rustling sound came from the phone, and the broadcast began. Everyone quieted down.

The male teacher summarized Affiliated High School’s achievements this year, followed by applause.

He continued, "In this competition, 57 people in the Capitol won the first prize. Among them, 28 students from our school won the first prize. Among these 28 students, a total of six students rank in the top ten overall—ranked tenth, ninth, seventh, fourth, third, and first place! That is to say, three students from our school can enter the final and continue to fight for the honor!"

As soon as these words fell, the entire school burst into thunderous applause.

Without announcing the specific names, everyone was tense, and only Aria was able to leisurely eat sunflower seeds.

In the classroom, Raine Nolan was nearly frantic, wondering why the specific names had not been announced yet!

She thought about being the first place and imagined that in the next second, the teacher would announce that she was first!

The male teacher finally spoke slowly: "Now let’s announce the top ten winners of our school in the city."

"Let us warmly congratulate Sophia Foley for winning the tenth place in the city.

Congratulate Layla Lowell for winning the ninth place, Kiera Shaw for winning the seventh place in the city.

Up next, let’s send our warmest applause to congratulate Raine Nolan for winning the fourth place in the city!"

At the moment the applause sounded, Raine Nolan accidentally knocked over her water cup, making a noise that drowned in the applause.

Fourth place...

How could she only get fourth place...

Her mind went blank. She could only hear a roaring noise in her ears and couldn’t hear anything else. She didn’t feel any pride when faced with others’ envious eyes.

She clearly gave 100% on that day. The odds were so great!

How could there still be two people ahead of her?!

Facing everyone’s applause, she simply couldn’t smile.

However, at the Collinses, cheers erupted.

Mrs. Fowler said, "You see, I was right. Raine is amazing; she has taken one-fifth of the quotas for the finals!"

Madam Foley said, "In my opinion, it is not easy to enter the top ten in the city. These children have worked so hard!"

"Mr. Collins, since Raine has achieved such good results, why not host a banquet to celebrate with some close friends and family?"

Rosalind Taylor quickly added, "That’s a must, right, dear?"

Tristan Collins’s face was much better than before, but he didn’t agree outright.

"Let’s listen till the end."

The few people returned to the phone. At this time, the applause there slowly died down.

Madam Foley said, "The first or the third place should belong to Miss Cherry of the Fosters. Her grades are also very good."

"Yes, she should be the first place, and the third place should be a male student. Raine has said that there is a talented male student in their class," Rosalind Taylor said.

The broadcast on the other end—

"Alright, let’s announce the winner of the third place. Let’s congratulate... Wanda Wesley of Year 3, Class 8!"

Thunderous applause resounded once more.

However, this scene didn’t appear in the key class, and the Collinses were also full of confusion.

Rosalind Taylor was puzzled: "Wanda Wesley? Is that a boy?"

Madam Foley had an odd look on her face: "No, it’s the girl from the Wesleys’..."
