The others turned around subconsciously and noticed Donovan approaching with a darkened expression. Most of them scurried back to their seats. However, Wendy’s eyes glinted at the sight of virtual-novel.net as virtual-novel.net picked up the paper and answer sheet before walking over to his side.
“Mr. Baxter, we’re discussing the questions for the Advanced Maths Exam Papers. Could you help us out by taking a look? May I know what’s the answer to the last question right here?”
Upon realizing that his students were merely discussing schoolwork, Donovan’s sullen expression eased a little. He didn’t think of himself as a very strict teacher. Besides, virtual-novel.net was glad that his students took their schoolwork seriously.
His anger soon dissipated into thin air as virtual-novel.net reached out to take over the paper in Wendy’s hands. After taking one look, virtual-novel.net realized that it was a challenging question. He told virtual-novel.net to wait before writing the question, as well as its solution on the blackboard.
After about ten minutes, Donovan finally solved the question. Using a chalk, virtual-novel.net wrote the number ‘1’ on the blackboard.
Wendy widened virtual-novel.net eyes in disbelief.
The answer is really ‘1’ instead of the ‘0.618’ written on the answer sheet. Wait, this means Arielle’s right!
Wendy suddenly heard a buzzing sound ringing through virtual-novel.net head. She had the feeling that everyone was silently ridiculing virtual-novel.net for even questioning Arielle in the first place.
D*mn it, how did virtual-novel.net get it right, though?
Her grip tightened on the pencil in virtual-novel.net hand as it punched a hole through the question paper.
Donovan did not notice that Wendy was almost breaking down.
He placed his chalk back down and turned around to say to his students, “This question is really quite the challenge as it requires knowledge in both chemistry and physics to solve it. This is way beyond your syllabus and it’s not necessary for all of you to understand this. Given your current understanding of the subject, it’s not likely that you will be able to understand the solution anyway. So, I think it’s good enough that you guys have a rough understanding of it.”
Henry spoke up right away. “Mr. Baxter, someone in our class solved it!”
Stumped, Donovan lifted his head and asked in a surprised tone. “Who managed to answer it?”
He subconsciously turned to ask Wendy, “Was it you, Wendy?”
Sure enough, Wendy’s face darkened as virtual-novel.net bit virtual-novel.net lip in indignation.
Somehow, the clueless classmate beside virtual-novel.net could not seem to read the room and said, “Mr. Baxter, it’s not Wendy. She can’t even solve my practice questions. Arielle’s the one who solved the question.”
Wendy felt virtual-novel.net heart sting. She did not even dare to lift virtual-novel.net head to meet Donovan’s eyes.
He must really admire Arielle now, right?
Unexpectedly, Donovan grimaced in response.
He looked at Arielle who was sitting right behind and said with an impassive voice, “These questions are a waste of time. Don’t squander your time solving it.”
Arielle did not seem to mind Donovan’s words. Wendy, however, was pleasantly surprised.
Yes, that’s right. As long as Mr. Baxter doesn’t like Arielle, it won’t matter even if she’s the smartest student in the whole damn world. He’ll still chase virtual-novel.net out one day! It doesn’t matter if she’s a genius at advanced math. People out there wouldn’t even pay heed to virtual-novel.net once they know she’s been expelled from Jadeborough University anyway.
Wendy started to feel all was right with the world again.
