Ray patted Sophia’s shoulder, comforting her, “Don’t overthink it. Maybe Elizabeth’s score isn’t as bad as you think.”

Sophia sighed and shook her head, not taking Ray’s words to heart.

At dinner, Sophia turned to Elizabeth.

“Did you get your quiz results?”

“Yeah.” Elizabeth looked up at her, her dark and beautiful eyes reminiscent of an obedient ragdoll cat.

Taken aback by Elizabeth’s adorable expression, Sophia blurted, “How did you

“Not bad.” Elizabeth didn’t hesitate and reached for her backpack to show them her scorecard.

Not bad? How exactly?

They had assumed Elizabeth’s score was mediocre and were thinking of ways to console her when she already had her scorecard out. “Top of the class. Oh, and top of the grade too.”

What?

Jack blinked in disbelief, thinking he must have heard wrong.

He even glanced at a stone-faced Linda. Elizabeth’s grades were better than Linda’s. That couldn’t be possible.

Sophia quickly took the scorecard and skimmed through it.

“Top of the grade… indeed, top of the grade… I need a moment.”

She held her forehead, clearly overwhelmed.

Ray, speechless, stepped forward, took the scorecard, and apologized to

Elizabeth, “Your mom is just too excited.”

Elizabeth couldn’t grasp why Sophia was so thrilled and simply told them, “I told you I could do it.”

Ray expressed remorse, “We underestimated you. Sorry.”

Sophia felt awkward, realizing she had prematurely arranged for a tutor, which was now unnecessary.

Jack grimaced as he remembered his prior suspicion about Elizabeth’s supposed poor grades, feeling quite embarrassed.

Linda, noticing the elated expressions on the Wilsons’ faces, felt a pang of jealousy and remarked, “This quiz was relatively easy. The monthly test is what really matters. But given Elizabeth’s intelligence, I believe she will excel.”

Hearing Linda’s comment, the realization dawned on them.

Quizzes and formal exams were indeed different.

But regardless, Elizabeth topped them all, and she deserved to be rewarded.

After dinner, Elizabeth received a gift card worth one hundred thousand dollars.

Linda got one too, but only for fifty thousand dollars since she ranked second in class and eighth in the grade.

Linda bit her lip, feeling upset.

She had always known that if Elizabeth achieved good grades, their parents would favor her more.

As expected…

Later that night, Jack approached Elizabeth and congratulated her, “Well done on ranking top of your grade.”

Elizabeth replied nonchalantly, “It was easy.”

Jack felt a pang of guilt. He wondered if Elizabeth’s comment was an indirect reference to his prior suspicions of her cheating.

She’s holding a grudge, just like any young kid would.

“Do you want anything? I’ll get it for you,” he offered.

Elizabeth shook her head faintly, “No need.”

Jack stared at the stunning features of Elizabeth. The soft light softened the indifference in her eyes.

But the sense of detachment was still palpable.

Elizabeth noticed Jack’s odd expression, feeling puzzled but chose not to inquire further.

She felt misunderstood every time she spoke the truth, so she decided to speak less around Jack.

Jack added, “Let me know if you change your mind.”

He planned to stay in his downtown apartment for a few days.

Assuming Elizabeth was upset with him, he hoped that giving her some space might help.

Seeing Jack about to leave so late, Linda inquired with concern, “Jack, are you heading to work?”

“I’m staying at the apartment. It’s closer to the office.”

Jack responded, then as if recalling something, he asked, “How is Elizabeth getting along with her classmates?”

He suspected Elizabeth might be getting bullied at school due to an earlier incident involving a lost book..
