Rebirth of the Deadly Beauty novel Chapter 450

"I heard that Gavin and Yolanda are dating. Could it be that…" Chris suggested.

If they could get hold of evidence showing that Gavin helped Yolanda cheat, they wouldn't lose!

"Could it be possible that Gavin had helped Yolanda cheat, and that's why Yolanda has gotten full marks?"

"Not likely." One other member of the academy's board of directors who had arranged for the proctors chimed in.

"There are a dozen surveillance cameras throughout the entire exam-taking process. They didn't capture Yolanda cheating at all. Also, the proctors had been watching Yolanda closely throughout the entire process.

"Unless these proctors have all gone blind and the surveillance cameras were all broken, it's really impossible for her to have cheated.

"Also, Yolanda's exam papers were only finalized by the teachers in our academy the night before the examination. Gavin couldn't have gotten the exam papers beforehand, so the theory of Yolanda getting the questions from Gavin beforehand and memorizing the answers doesn't stand as well."

When he was done, the meeting room sank into a pin-drop silence.

Yolanda was once again first in her grade. This would not only make expelling her difficult, but it would also put the academy's board of directors in a very dangerous spot.

"Don't be too anxious, Mr. Sawyer. There's the Southdale Physics Competition, right?" Another member of the board added.

"Even if she had pretty decent results with all full marks, it would be impossible for her to get first place in the physics competition, right? You've got to know that the geniuses in the physics competition would surely have full marks in their exams for sure as well."

"You're right." The other members' faces relaxed a little after hearing it.

"Even if the exam papers we came up with were difficult, it was still based on the syllabus. It's certainly incomparable to the questions that could appear in the Southdale Physics Competition."

"That's right. No matter how great Yolanda is, she would never get first place in that!"

"I have something to say, Mr. Sawyer." At this time, Clara, who was seated far behind, raised her hand timidly.

"What do you have to say?"

The outside world claimed that the First Academy was the most excellent school in Riverdale City, but this academy had been rotten on the inside since ages ago like an apple with a bad core. They may look pretty and glamorous on the outside, but inside, it was rotten beyond words.

The initially fair entry requirement for the school had been compromised again and again because of the selfishness of some of the board members, and this wasn't new news to them internally.

The supposed strict entry requirements only applied to ordinary families who were middle-class at most and didn't have much power or influence.

For families in high society, even if their children weren't excellent, if they wanted to send their children to First Academy, it could be arranged.

If Yolanda won the bet, the entire academy's board of directors would be changed. If the deciding power fell into Yolanda's hands, how could they still siphon benefits using their position?

The school's glory and credibility paled in comparison to their gains.

At that time, when they heard that Clara had torn Yolanda's registration form apart, the relief on their faces was palpable.

"You've done well, Ms. Bennett!" Chris nodded approvingly at Clara. "I'll apply for an additional bonus for you when the school year ends."
