Seraphina didn't waste time arguing. "One question—are you going to run or not?" Dora and her crew exchanged uneasy glances, avoiding her gaze. Run? Absolutely not. That would be a blow to their pride. Not run? None of them dared to say it outright. Whoever spoke up first would become the target of the crowd's scorn. Neither Dora nor Caleb, who always seemed carefree but had a calculating mind, said a word to break the silence. Finally, Kelly Thomson stepped forward, voicing what the rest were too afraid to admit. "We're not running. What are you going to do about it?" The others quietly exhaled in relief. If Kelly was the one to say it, the backlash would fall on her first. True to their thoughts, the surrounding students stared in shock at her brazenness."Wow, that's shameless." "I've seen it all now. Miss Thomson is the epitome of entitlement." "That's next-level shamelessness." "Nothing truthful ever comes out of Kelly's mouth. First, she lies without blinking, and now she's pulling this nonsense. Her morals are nonexistent." Evelyn stood in stunned disbelief. She had never imagined someone could reach such a level of shamelessness. Meanwhile, Seraphina turned her gaze to Caleb, Dora, and the rest of the group. "What about the rest of you?" Milly Tanner, scrambling for a way out, stammered, "Y-you can't prove the results are real. If you can prove it, then… then we'll honor the bet." The crowd had had enough. "Just admit you're not going to follow through. Don't be so shameless.""Exactly!" "Do you think we're all idiots?" Amid the growing criticism, Dora furrowed her brow and stepped forward. "Why did you only score 280 points on Bloomington's entrance exam before, but now you're first place? Our doubts aren't baseless. We even heard your grades were terrible at your previous school." "Heard? And who exactly told you that?" Seraphina asked with a faint smile. "Oh, I know. It must've been one of my so-called 'friends,' right? The same ones who claimed I was hopeless at school, lazy, and unmotivated. That's why you dared to bet against me in the restaurant that day." "Don't change the subject! Explain your scores," Dora pressed, refusing to be led astray. "What's the truth? Can't keep your lie straight?" Seraphina chuckled. "Did they forget to mention why I only scored 280? It was because I didn't take three of the exams that day. There's surveillance footage of the exam rooms. If you don't believe me, feel free to check."Bloomington School's entrance exam consisted of five subjects. Seraphina had only completed two but still scored 280—full marks, plus ten extra points. Abigail, sensing an opportunity to attack, pointed at her accusingly. "Liar! The total score of all five subjects is 630. How can you get 280 from just two subjects?" Facing their doubtful stares, Seraphina remained unfazed. She reached into her bag and pulled out the exam papers from that day. But instead of handing them to Dora's crew, she passed them to someone else. The truth quickly became evident. The math paper, worth 120 points, had ten bonus points added for solving advanced problems. A senior math whiz examined the papers and gasped. "The formulas she used here… those are college-level!" Evelyn's eyes widened as she looked at Seraphina. It all made sense now—Seraphina had anticipated that they wouldn't honor the bet. She had even predicted the excuses they might use. That was why she had retrieved her entrance exam papers from the school's administrative office in advance. With these papers, Seraphina not only proved her scores were legitimate but also silenced any excuses they could muster.
