Chapter 206: A Gullible Child
"Attention students, the result of inter school competition has already been declared. The names of the top ten students can be found on the announcement bulletin board. I wish good luck to the winners." the voice echoed in the whole school by the corridor speakers.
Various students from different schools had left already. The top ten students must be from all the schools. So the selection this time was very hard.
Not only the top ten students from the school went to check their names but others also went to cheer them out of curiosity.
There were only ten names written in the bold and large font. Even from a distance, you can read them easily. But every eye stopped on the first name on the last name on the board.
"Leonora Stone!" Nora! The Nora from their class. They checked her name, class and school name which was written in comparatively small letters thrice to confirm. It was her!
"But how! She had not given the exams." Penny could not hold herself. Her whole body shook with rage. "I have seen teachers being partial toward her but the international level contents are not a joke. How could a person be in the top ten when they have not even participated." her voice came through gritted teeth but she was not the only one.
Many were sullen because their name was not in the list. Only three girls were selected in the contest. Alisha, Nora and Penny taking the lead. But even she was only in sixth place. That showed that the other schools were much more prepared than them.
There were four boys in the topper list of their school. But not a single one was selected. Three girls were left too. They looked at Nora’s name gloomily. Even if they had represented the school on inter state level, it would have brought them enough fame. And who knew, they might have won further.
"That is enough. I need an explanation for this!" Aiden, a boy from section A gritted his teeth. He was in fourth place previously.
