Unstoppable Unforgiven (Shermaine and Joshua) novel Chapter 207

As soon as Jameson’s call came through, Janice set down her cup of coffee and took the phone from the housekeeper.

Jameson asked, “Mom, SAT results are out. How did Shermaine do?”

Janice replied leisurely, “Oh, nothing special. Why don’t you tell me how did Jason do?”

As soon as Janice asked, Jameson swelled with pride and declared, his voice booming, “Jason scored 1580!”

It was impressive, but it was still no match for Sheary–she outshined him completely.

Good grades mean nothing. What truly matters is knowing your place, staying down–to–earth, and not coveting things that don’t belong to you.

Jameson said, “Mom, with 1580 out of 1600, it’s unacceptable if Jason doesn’t become this year’s top science scorer–last year’s champion only got 1570!” His voice brimmed with pride.

She

“Jason outperformed last year’s top scorer by 10 points. Since Shermaine didn’t do as well as him, shouldn’t we honor our agreement? It’s time you acknowledged Jason and officially recognized him as a member of the Jean family.”

Janice scoffed coldly. “Did I ever say Sheary did poorly?”

Jameson was momentarily speechless. After a few seconds, he stammered, “But… didn’t you just say she didn’t score that high?”

Janice said airily, “Oh, nothing special–just 1590.”

Jameson thought he must be hearing things. “W–what did you say?”

Janice said firmly, “I’m telling you, Sheary scored 1590 on the SAT. The title of top science scorer belongs to her. As for Jason being recognized as a Jean family member–forget about it.”

Jameson was stunned. ‘No way!

‘How could Shermaine possibly score 1590!‘

He’d already booked the party venue and made all the arrangements with the hotel, fully expecting to celebrate Jason becoming the top science scorer.

But now he was told Shermaine took the title instead.

Jameson’s face darkened. “No way! How could Shermaine possibly outscore Jason? Mom, you’re just saying this because you don’t want him back in the family, aren’t you?”

Janice snapped, her temper flaring as she heard his words. “Who has time for your jokes? Believe it or not, the facts are staring you in the face.

“And let me remind you–Shermaine is your daughter, not your enemy. Stop looking at her through prejudiced eyes. You still have time to change your ways, or you’ll regret it when it’s too late for tears.”

The higher his hopes had soared, the harder the fall now.

Jameson’s face darkened further.

Natalie, Jason’s mother, stood nearby and, seeing his thunderous expression, didn’t dare to speak up.

Never in her wildest dreams had Natalie imagined her own son would be outscored by Shermaine, who scored 1590–just 10 points shy of a perfect 1600.

The long–awaited dream was shattered. Natalie clearly couldn’t process it right away, muttering to herself, “How could this be? How did Shermaine score so high?”

Just then, her phone rang–it was a call from the school teacher.

Chapter 207.

Natalie hesitated briefly before tapping to answer the call.

The teacher said on the other end, “Is this Ms. Keller? The SAT results are out. Jason performed exceptionally well and placed second in

“I truly thought that score would make him the top science scorer, but as they say, there’s always someone better out there. Shermaine from t Academy actually scored 1590 and became the city champion.”

The real kicke😕 The top scorer in liberal arts was also from Brightwater Academy.

The other schools could do nothing but watch with envy.
