The statistics alone were astounding.
“Whoa, that’s amazing! She knows her stuff!”
“she only took one look at the person’s face and knew that they had stomach problems. That’s
Incredible!”
“Is she the one who treated the postgraduate senior?”
Karina could only hear an intense roaring in her head as exclamations sounded all around her.
“No, there’s no way she’s that good,” Karina argued instinctively, flushing. “Mr. Lopez, Wynter must
have staged all those videos!”
“So you’re saying that I’m playing along with her act as well?” Victor was furious. He had no idea what
was wrong with Karina.
Karina quickly explained, “Of course not, Mr. Lopez. I merely meant that given Wynter’s scheming
ways, she might be fooling you as well.
“Besides, even if she does know enough about traditional medicine to give online consultations and
treatments, there’s no way thatshe can ace so many of her placement tests!”
As she said this, she tossed the test papers she had stacked up earlier onto the desk. “Take a look at
her grades before you decide, Mr. Lopez.”
Her voice turned icy. “I won’t mention her first aid skills since all of you claim that she knows her way
around medicine. However, her grades in mathematics, physics, and Emstian are outrageous!”
Karina fl*pped through the test papers and said self–righteously, “She scored all of these tests
perfectly.
“I even asked Mr. Blackwell, the physics teacher, about it. He said he hadn’t gone over the last question
in the paper either. But even if he had, he wouldn’t expect the students to
remember how to solve it.
“Mr. Lopez, if you don’t believe me, you can ask Wynter’s classmates.”
Someone from Class Three who was present in the crowd piped up softly, “It’s true. The physics test
this time is tough.

“The last question, in particular, was an additional one. Only three students in the entire district got it
right.”
“See? Only three students in the entire district got that question right!” Karina repeated as she shot
Wynter a smug look. “Not only did Wynter answer that question perfectly, but she even submitted her
test paper early!
“Are you going to tell me that a college student like her could outdo the students from the top high
schools in our district?”
Hearing this, the crowd gasped in unison and turned to look at Wynter skeptically.
At once, the crowd began to guess among themselves.
“There’s no way she could have solved that question on her own.”
“I asked friends of mine who go to one of the top schools back at home, and they couldn’t
answer it either!”
“More importantly, isn’t it ridiculous that Wynter could get a perfect score when she never
came to class?”
Wynter did not move from Margaret’s side as she took in the discussion surrounding har.
She was the epitome of calm as she stood with steady legs and with her purple sugilite pendant resting
against her t–shirt.
She rubbed the pendant between her fingers as she listened to each and every comment from the
crowd. Her gaze was dark, and her l*ps were curled up in amusement.
Karina pointed out solemnly, “As I’ve said, Mr. Lopez, you can go ahead and keep Wynter im our
school if you wish. However, everyone here knows the truth, and that is something even
you cannot change.”
Abel had told Victor about the time he called up Margaret and suggested that he give Wynter tutoring
sessions.
Despite this fact, Victor trusted that Wynter had morals and principles. “Ms. Greene, do you have
evidence to support your suspicions? Could it be that the invigilator for the test that day did not take his
task seriously?”
“I took my task very seriously, Mr. Lopez!” Morgan Daniels, the bespectacled invigilator for Wynter’s
physics test the other day, spoke up. “I don’t remember Wynter behaving abnormally during the test
that day.
“Granted, she finished the test earlier and submitted it half an hour before it was due, But

she never spoke to the other students after that.”
He paused before adding, “Oh, wait! I also remember seeing her show up for the test with a wound on
her forehead. It kept bleeding, and I was so worried that I considered escorting her to the infirmary. But
she didn’t go in the end.”
Days had passed since that incident, and Morgan was surprised to learn that Wynter had scored so
well on her placement tests.
