The Double ( or More ?) Life of The Fake Heiress

Chapter 106
Scott wasn't trying to belittle Mirabella. When the preliminary test scores came in,
he thought Mirabella showed promise and was worthy of recommendation.
However, after a detailed interrogation, he discovered that she was a recent
transfer from a small town.
Perhaps Mirabella’s foundational skills were solid, but could the teaching
standards of a small town really match those of the big city?
She answered beyond the syllabus in the prelims, showcasing her sharp wit, but
there were so many top-notch students from all over the country competing.
What made her stand out?
Having witnessed many underdogs rise to the occasion in his years of
experience with the competition, Scott realized that being impressive wasn’t
necessarily indicative of international competition potential. So, he held his
tongue, offering no further comment.
On the other hand, Mirabella found Wade's remarks somewhat novel, a playful
smile tugging at the corners of her mouth as she inquired, “Will there be a
veritable gathering of maestros at the international competition?”
Wade watched Mirabella, momentarily taken aback, before nodding
subconsciously. “That's a given.”
The normally silent Hammond quietly observed Mirabella, noticing the spark of
competitiveness on her face, and couldn’t help but stroke his chin thoughtfully. It
seemed the international competition stage was about to get lively this year. He
was genuinely curious about the true extent of this young lady’s abilities.
After a brief exchange with Mirabella, Scott and Wade didn’t press her with
further questions, sending her to her classroom.
Once she left, Scott set down his cup, turning to Wade, “Wade, you seem rather
optimistic about Mirabella.”
Wade offered a smile, simply stating, “She's promising.”
“But her? In the international competition?” Scott was skeptical, especially since
she was a humanities student.
“Don't underestimate anyone,” Wade said with a penetrating gaze, then shifted
his attention to Mr. Hammond, his tone suggestive, “You seem to have good
fortune on your side.”
Mr. Hammond smiled in agreement, nodding nonchalantly. “I tend to think so,
too.”
Scott's gaze flitted between the two, his curiosity piqued. Was there really
something extraordinary about this student? As he sipped his water, Wade
suddenly remembered, “Oh, doesn’t Parkside High School have a campus
celebrity who entered the competition?”
Mr. Hammond raised an eyebrow. “Are you referring to Summer?”
“That might be the name,” Wade vaguely recalled. He looked back at Scott. “The
Chairman mentioned her to me. How did she fare?”
“She did quite well, let me check.” Scott pulled out his phone and soon reported,
“186 points, ranking tenth.”
