Chapter 63 At the same time, Naomi noticed that someone was sneaking a glance at her. She spun around with her hand resting upon her cheek.
She leveled an intent stare at Clarissa and said, “Clarissa, I heard that you are only concerned with your studies. You should study hard for your upcoming entrance exam in the afternoon later, okay?”
“Of... Of course!” From NôvelDrama.Org.
Clarissa met Naomi‘s eyes. She was so terrified that she stuttered.
The representatives from the Royal Medical School would be coming to Saint Joseph‘s High School this afternoon to hold a special entrance exam session. She could completely trample Naomi under her feet as long as she passed the exam!
‘Naomi, you‘ll soon be crying!‘ As she held that thought, she smiled viciously.
The school bell finally rang. Johnson left a bottle of milk on her table in a show of support and encouragement.
“Clarissa, do your best later!”
“Thank you, John.”
Clarissa purposely gave Johnson a really sweet smile. The latter was pleased and left happily.
Meanwhile, Naomi witnessed their interaction.
Tsk, tsk Clarissa was truly a pretentious person. She had even charmed her best friend‘s boyfriend for her own benefit.
Various colleges‘ entrance exams would be held at Saint Joseph‘s High School‘s hall in the afternoon.
The entrance exams for universities and colleges were held at Saint Joseph‘s High School yearly. Many students from Saint Joseph‘s High school would usually pass the exam.
Patrick arranged for all the twelfth–grade students from various schools to watch the exam. It was meant to encourage and bolster the achievements of these students.
The exams this year were grander than the ones from previous years. Many reporters had arrived at the exam halls. Most of them though had been specially hired. Clarissa had hired them so that they might bolster her image as the beautiful top student.
Naomi and the rest of the twelfth–grade students went to the hall together. Just as she sat down in the area reserved for the audience, she heard Sherry mock her from beside her.
“Naomi, look at your sister. She‘s such an amazing person. You, however, are nothing but trash who can‘t do anything but look up at her from your seat.” Naomi gave her a side–glance and raised the corner of her mouth.
“You too are sitting here. Oh, and look at your boyfriend.” Naomi lifted her chin in gesture as she said that, and Sherry followed her gesture and looked at the stage. Johnson was part of the committee working for the exam. He was standing below the stage and staring adoringly up at Clarissa, who was up on stage. “Are you guys” Sherry looked at Clarissa and grew suspicious. Her suspicion was finally raised and for once she looked jealous. Clarissa might be her rival in love. At last, the entrance exam for the Royal Medical School officially began. The main examiners consisted of the Royal Medical School‘s Vice–Chancellor and the department heads. Naomi was surprised to see someone she knew amongst the examiners. She had previously met Ansel Craig at the hospital not long ago. Ansel suddenly glanced at her. Their gazes met. Ansel nodded at Naomi with a smile. Naomi felt her heart warm. Somehow, Ansel reminded her of a kind grandfather. “Miss Clarissa Green, please get ready!” Johnson, who was a member of the committee, picked up the microphone and announced that the examination had officially begun.

Clarissa rose and smiled at the camera before walking toward the examiners. She did as she had rehearsed. She followed the directions, took her script, and read the paper. Although she sounded stiff, her thesis was a treasure trove of wealth. Things proceeded as she expected. A few examiners smiled proudly. Thunderous applause echoed from the audience below. “I‘m satisfied with this student‘s paper!” “I‘m pleased with it too!” Most of the examiners quickly showed their approval and gave Clarissa‘s paper a high grade.
The Vice–Chancellor also gave Clarissa a high grade and looked at Clarissa with a smile. The reporters trained their cameras on Clarissa. They waited to record her moment of success. Clarissa curled her lips smugly. She willed the Vice–Chancellor to quickly announce the results. She looked at herself standing in the limelight, and then she looked at Naomi who she saw as a depressed clown who sat on the ground below the stage. Clarissa‘s smile grew brighter. ‘Naomi, you‘re destined to be a loser! You‘ll stay beneath me!‘
