Chapter 23 The Misunderstanding
The news that Vivian was recruited by the Srolanya High School was spreading virally. Many people from other classes and grades were talking about it. Charlotte couldn't avoid being the comparison in their discussion. She turned into a deaf ear and memorized vocabulary with her earphones plugged in.
"Knock...Knock...Knock...", someone knocked on her table.
Charlotte looked up and saw Emilia's face.
Emilia smiled and said, "Charlotte, we plan to hold a farewell party for Vinny tonight. Why don't you join us?"
"After all, your sister is being so kind to you. Once she is gone, there will be no one in the school that will protect you," someone said strangely.
"Speaking of which, different people indeed have different fates. Look, someone was the third place in the city, but she doesn't get the offer. Do you think it's because of her background which is too disgraceful?"
They liked to make fun of Charlotte's background very much, and that was Charlotte's only raw nerve.
Amidst the mocking noise, the class teacher suddenly appeared and said, "What's happening here?"
Everyone was taken aback. Emilia hurriedly said, "Miss, isn't Vivian going to the Srolanya High School? Charlotte is jealous. We are lecturing her."
In the past, the class teacher wouldn't care about that kind of matter. But today, for some reason, she had a strange expression on her face. She scolded Emilia, "What makes you think that you could lecture her?"
Emilia was stunned for a moment. She felt aggrieved and was about to talk back. Then, she saw the class teacher walking towards Charlotte. Looking at her posture and expression...She looked like she was about to ingratiate Charlotte.
She looked at Charlotte and said nicely, "Charlotte, my child, why didn't you tell me about it in advance? It's such a big thing!"
Charlotte raised her head and looked at her in confusion.
Everyone looked confused too and thought to themselves, "What was the class teacher doing?"
"Well, the principal has arranged an exclusive interview. I don't know if you would like to participate... But, I definitely want you to do it. After all, this is a matter of glory for the school..." the class teacher said.
Emilia was at a loss. She said, "Miss, it's Vinny who is going to the Srolanya High School! Not Charlotte! Vinny should be the one being invited for the interview! Did you make a mistake?"
The class teacher gave her a stare and said, "Why are you so noisy?"
Emilia was speechless.
Charlotte looked confused too and asked, "Miss...What do you mean by exclusive interview?"
The class teacher looked at her with some reproach and answered, "Charlotte, I already knew about it, You don't have to hide it anymore."
Charlotte was puzzled and replied, "Miss... I don't know."
The class teacher continued, "The director of the admissions office of Srolanya High School came to our school in person and informed us that you are the special recruitee of Srolanya High School! I know that your grades will make you to be recruited! So, don't hide it."
As soon as that sentence came out, not only the students were in shock, Charlotte was stunned too.
The director of the admissions office of Srolanya High School came to recruit her personally.
How could that be possible? Wasn't it Vivian who was going to Srolanya High School?
Vivian looked full of disbelief. She stood up and said, "Miss! Did you make a mistake?"
The class teacher responded, "How is it possible? He said he is looking for Charlotte specifically, the one who is at third place in the city."
Vivian's face turned pale.
Charlotte looked at a loss.
The fact that Vivian went to Srolanya High School was just an announcement made by the school. But, the admissions director approached in person to ask for Charlotte! The treatment was completely different, which was also the reason for the big change in the class teacher's attitude. She told Charlotte gently, "The director is waiting for you. Please come with me to meet him."
