The Double or more Life of the Fake Heiress (Mirabella) novel Chapter 246

Mr. Hammond stared after Mirabella's retreating figure for a long moment before he turned to Anthony, one eyebrow arched in a leisurely fashion as he uttered a few words with absolute certainty, "One hundred percent."

Anthony blinked, a bit stunned. One hundred percent... Was Mr. Hammond really that sure?

"But Vincent was only two points behind her in the last round."

Mr. Hammond just smiled. "Those two points might seem small, but they're not so easily overtaken."

The person who had nearly sent the entire education system of several top universities into meltdown wasn't someone who could be surpassed so simply. The breadth of knowledge Mirabella possessed had long outstripped the current curriculum.

Vincent was undeniably a top student, but next to Mirabella, he was destined for second place. It was a stroke of luck that they had recruited Mirabella. If she'd gone to another school, Mr. Hammond might truly be pulling his hair out by now.

Refocusing, Mr. Hammond clapped Anthony on the shoulder. "First or second doesn't matter. What matters is that our very own Parkside High School students hold both the top spots. Whoever takes the lead is all the same to us."

"True enough," Anthony replied with a chuckle.

"I've got some errands this evening, so the kids are in your hands. Let's try to keep them at the hotel tonight unless there's a good reason not to," Mr. Hammond advised, glancing at his watch.

Anthony nodded. "Don't worry, I've got this."

Mr. Hammond soon departed.
