"Chapter 362

All eyes were now on Vanessa Brooke.

The silence at this moment was just like that which followed when Wanda Wesley voluntarily answered but received no response.

Awkwardness, embarrassment, anxiety, and confusion gripped Vanessa Brooke’s body and mind.

She took a deep breath and bravely began to explain.

She analyzed the problem in segments, discussing the points of knowledge that were relevant to the previous question, in an almost parrot-fashion manner.

’So, essentially, what this question is testing is still the acid-base proton theory.’

’I know that’s what’s being tested, but how do I solve it?’ Chloe Collins looked puzzled.

Vanessa Brooke suddenly fell silent.

Under the gaze of many eyes, she forced a smile and said, ’There seems to be a problem with this question. I’ll look over it again after going back and talk to you about it in the next class. We’re having a meeting now, so you guys may leave.’

Chloe Collins made an acknowledging sound and muttered, ’So, Ms. Brooke doesn’t know either.’

’This question is indeed challenging,’ a chemistry teacher commented.

Then, he turned to look at Wanda Wesley and Raine Nolan, ’Do either of you have any thoughts?’

Raine Nolan, seeing that even Vanessa Brooke could not solve it, readily shook her head, ’I don’t know, it’s really tough.’

’I... I think I’ve solved it,’ Wanda Wesley timidly raised her hand.

Suddenly, except for Chloe Collins, everyone else wore an expression of ’How could that be possible?’

Raine Nolan glanced at her draft, indeed it was filled with detailed calculations.

Whereas her own... was stuck at the second step.

Vanessa Brooke’s mood suddenly plummeted, she simply couldn’t believe it.

At this moment, Chloe Collins, with a mysterious tone, commented, ’Although I don’t know the steps to solve it, I do know the correct answer.’

As she spoke, she picked up a pen and wrote a chemical formula on the blackboard.

’What do you think? Is this the answer?’ she asked Wanda Wesley.

Everyone else also intensely focused on Wanda Wesley.

Wanda Wesley nodded timidly, reluctant to show off.

Vanessa Brooke blushed awkwardly.

The other teachers didn’t think as much and laughed, ’As expected from the third best student in the city. Why don’t you come up and explain it to us.’

Chloe Collins made space, ’Please.’

There was nothing Vanessa Brooke could say. She remained silent with a cold expression on her face.

Wanda Wesley, petite in stature, stood in front of the whiteboard confidently writing down the steps.

Her thinking was clear, her handwriting neat, everything was easy to understand.

When she finished writing the last element, applause sounded from behind.

’Wanda Wesley really is impressive, she seems even smarter than Ms. Brooke.’

Vanessa Brooke offered a weak smile, visibly embarrassed.

Chloe Collins looked indifferent and said, ’We should go now.’

In the fleeting moment when they passed each other, Vanessa Brooke caught the smirk at the corner of Chloe’s lips, it was clearly crafty, like a fox!

Vanessa Brooke quickly pieced it together, she... may have been tricked by Chloe Collins!

That’s right, Chloe Collins who scored full marks and came first!

How could it be possible for Wanda Wesley to solve it, but not her?

The more Vanessa Brooke thought about it, the more likely it seemed, but she lacked proof.

On one side, Chloe Collins and Wanda Wesley walked back to the classroom together. During their walk, Chloe Collins could perceive Wanda Wesley’s happiness.

She glanced to the lower left and happened to see Wanda Wesley, a smile of satisfaction on her lips.

A hint of amusement flashed in Chloe Collins’ eyes, ’Are you this happy for solving one problem?’

Caught off guard, Wanda Wesley looked up, looking a bit shy, ’Not many people clap for me, so...’

Chloe Collins remained silent, not saying anything.

The first thing she did upon returning to the classroom was to check her phone.

She had arranged for people on Lilian Pearce’s side to protect her. Now, her contacts reported that Lilian Pearce had taken leave for a week but was just resting at home and had not gone anywhere.

She asked them to keep watching and then put down her phone.

The next second, her phone started to vibrate."
