Chapter 279 Ysabel Discovers Academic Rock Bottom

At that moment, the one responsible for all of it–Tess was fast asleep in the exam room.

She’d finished her test long ago; the remaining time was perfect for a nap.

At first, the proctor wasn’t thrilled to see her sleeping. But when he walked past and saw her test paper- filled from top to bottom and nearly flawless–he silently walked away.

People always gave a little extra grace to geniuses.

After three grueling days, finals had finally come to an end. One by one, the students of First High stumbled out of the school like they’d been hit by a freight train.

After the first day of exams, they still had enough energy to rant about how cruel the test writers were. But now, no one had the strength to even complain.

Ysabel felt the same way.

She followed behind Tessa, head drooping, not saying a word. Seeing her like that, Tessa couldn’t help but try to comfort her.

“It’s okay; it’s just one exam. And this one really was brutal. Even if you didn’t do well, it’s not the end of the world.”

“Tessa, don’t try to make me feel better. I saw your test when you turned it in–every page was filled.” “Well, Ysabel, let me put it this way, you don’t need to compare yourself to me. Just look at how everyone else did. One glance at their faces and you’ll know how hellish this exam was.”

She wasn’t like the others; trying to measure up to her was a one–way ticket to a confidence crisis.

Ysabel looked around at her classmates–every single one of them looked like the light had gone out in their eyes.

Seeing how defeated everyone looked made her feel a little better. “You’re right. If everyone did badly, then it’s not such a big deal if I did too.”

As the two of them left the school, they spotted Landon’s car again.

“My uncle’s not seriously here for the exam, is he? It’s just finals, does he really need to come out for that?”

Getting crushed by Tessa’s grades was one thing;

but her uncle showing up like this? That was just too much. The two of them walked toward the sleek silver Lamborghini.

Ysabel opened the back door, got in, and closed it behind her.

Tessa was speechless.

Still, she opened the passenger door and climbed in without a word.

“Uncle, you weren’t seriously waiting here the whole time, were you?”

“Don’t flatter yourself.”

She didn’t think she was overthinking it at all.

Finished

“Tessie, didn’t you say you were going back to Falindale after finals? When are you going? Can I come with you?”

Tessa nodded. “Yeah, I need to go back. But there are still things here I haven’t finished.”

The Sinclair Corp shareholder meeting was about to take place.

Beauty Luxe was still selling like crazy; the new product line was doing really well too.
