As Nora listened to the compliments showered on her, she smiled delightfully.
Because Yvette had Wilson’s help last time, Nora had to kneel by the school gates all day. Nora was still deathly embarrassed by the whole thing. This time, Nora was determined to redeem herself.
“Huh? Why is Yvette’s name on the list of participants?”
Hearing that, Nora’s face fell. She questioned, “How can Yvette’s name be on the list?”
“It’s true, Nora. Look!”
Somebody handed Nora the list. To no one’s surprise. Nora saw Yvette’s name on the list. Nora was instantly angry.
Nora believed Yvette was just a country girl who knew nothing about medicine, and that Yvette had enrolled in the Jubilife medical school with connections. Nora didn’t think Yvette had what it took to participate in the medical competition.
“Only five people can participate, and Yvette took one of the spots. I wonder who’s going to lose their place because of her?” said Nora maliciously, sighing.
She had done that deliberately to evoke everyone’s discontentment toward Yvette.
As expected, everyone in the class began to complain
“How can Yvette do that? Not only did she enter medical school with her connections, but she’s also taking up the quota for the medical competition!”
“Exactly! What does she know about medicine? If she joins the competition, she’ll only bring shame to
Jubilife’s name!”
When Yvette entered the classroom at that moment, everyone shot her vicious glares. But Yvette paid no attention to them. She simply walked to her seat and focused on replying to messages.
Her nonchalant attitude angered her classmates even more. All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.
“You’re too much, Yvette! How can you take one of the slots for the medical competition with Vista University?”
“Exactly! There are only five slots. And since you took one, somebody would have gotten eliminated!”
Hearing their complaints, Yvette remained unfazed. She said coldly. “If you have complaints, talk to Mr. Rusell.”
Yvette found the competition troublesome. If they could make Matt remove ber from the list, Yvette would personally thank them.
But when Nora heard Yvette’s words, she felt that Yvette was showing off her family background.
Nora was jealous, of course. She couldn’t fathom how Yvette turned out to be a daughter of the Murrays, and how Wilson was so protective of her. Nora couldn’t accept that a country girl like Yvette got so lucky!
Despite her hatred, Nora pretended to be worried. She said, “It doesn’t matter who joins the medical competition. I’m just worried that Vista University will be sending their best. What if we lose again this year?”
As Nora finished, people chirped in agreement.
“She’s right! We’ve been losing to Vista University’s medical school for the past few years. With Yvette on

the team, we’re definitely going to lose to them again!”
“We’ve already repeatedly lost to them. If we lose again, we’ll never be able to hold our heads up high in front of them.”
“Okay, that’s enough,” Nora said with a sigh. “We can’t help that she has a strong family background. Even if she took someone else’s slot, we can’t do anything about it.”
