Name: Jared Jupiter
Score: 470
He had scored full marks on every subject except Chanaean.
“We’ve discovered another genius just like you, Arielle! He’s your classmate, Jared, from the same preparatory class!” Marcus stated excitedly upon noticing her staring at the exam papers.
Marcus valued talents over everything and appreciated talented people more than fame or material wealth.
“Congratulations, Mr. Brown!” Arielle replied with a faint smile when she saw him beaming with excitement.
Marcus nodded happily, only to shrug and sigh moments later. “It’s a shame you’re withdrawing…” he voiced.
Arielle simply maintained her smile and kept quiet.
With a principal like this, Jared won’t have to worry about developing his talents even if he didn’t make it into Maxwell University! I must say, I am rather surprised that he scored full marks on every subject except Chanaean! I’ve always known him for being talented and smart, but I didn’t think he’d get this far.
After completing the withdrawal procedure, Marcus walked Arielle all the way to the campus gate.
The two of them happened to bump into Queenie, who was hailing a cab at the gate.
Both Arielle and Queenie had cold looks in their eyes when they exchanged glances, but the former was filled with indifference, while the latter was filled with hatred.
As the principal was around, Queenie could not really say anything and simply nodded at him before leaving in her cab.
Thinking Arielle didn’t know who Queenie was, Marcus gave her a quick introduction. “That is Mr. Baxter’s wife, by the way. They seem to be a really loving couple. She even stayed over in his dormitory last night!”
Arielle was somewhat surprised to have learned that. “She spent the night in Donovan’s dorm room?”
Marcus didn’t mind Arielle addressing Donovan by name. Nodding, he answered, “Yeah. They seemed pretty awkward with each other the last time I saw them, but I think they’ve worked things out now. Quarrels between married couples are common and inevitable, but they always kiss and make up in the end…”
Realizing he had let the cat out of the bag, Marcus quickly stopped himself and ended the conversation by saying, “Oops, I shouldn’t have said that. Anyway, you take care now, Arielle! Feel free to drop by anytime, okay? We could even hire you as a lecturer if you’d like!”
“Thank you, Mr. Brown.” Arielle flashed him a smile as she got into the car Sasha had brought around.
Along the way to the office, she kept thinking about what Marcus said earlier and found it hard to believe.
Queenie and Donovan being a loving couple? Huh… Oh, well… It’s good news for me, I suppose. This way, they won’t bother messing with me anymore. It’s always nice to have less trouble to deal with.
She was snapped out of her train of thoughts when Sasha turned around and asked, “Where to, Ms. Moore?”
“Southall Group.”
“Right away.”
As Sasha was a really skilled driver, it didn’t take long before their car was parked in front of the Southall Group office building.
Although Arielle had sent a text in the group chat summoning all higher-ups of Southall Group for a meeting, only a few of them were present when she entered the conference room.
Oliver and Jacob were nowhere in sight, but that didn’t surprise Arielle in the slightest.
As she calmly walked toward the front of the table, a middle-aged man who was balding like Oliver stood up and uttered with a smile, “Sorry, Ms. Moore. Most of the directors are either busy or outstation at the moment. Your message came a little too suddenly, so only a few of us are able to attend this meeting.”
Staring at the balding man, Arielle called out to him with an expressionless look on her face, “Madam Chairman.”
“What?” The balding man was confused.
