Chapter 230
Ophelia turned around and saw the man had opened his eyes. In an instant, she suppressed her anger, playfully kissed him on the face, and said in her usual tone, “There’s something at school that I need to take care of. I will be back soon.”
Winford was a bit unhappy–she was supposed to spend the whole morning at home with him since there were no classes that morning.
But still let go, “Go ahead.”
As soon as Ophelia arrived at the school gate, she saw Lucy, Hannah, and her cousin Lenora waiting there.
“Ophelia!”
They ran towards Ophelia and then went to the lakeside with her.
By the time they arrived there, Adalynn, Bessie, and their group were already present, and there were quite a few onlookers around.
Seeing the bracelet in Adalynn’s hand, Ophelia was truly angered. She had a cold expression and an imposing demeanor, causing the people in front of her to instinctively step aside, allowing her to move to the front.
“Go ahead, Adalynn, what did you want to do?”
“I didn’t really think about doing anything; it was just that life was too boring, and I wanted to find some fun–I’ve heard that your mom is a miracle doctor?”
Adalynn’s tone was somewhat dismissive; that so–called miracle doctor only had a bit of a reputation in Minston. She had never even heard of
him in Kingchester, so it seemed that Ophelia, this mother, was not someone remarkable either.
“Then what?”
“That’s easy then. Let’s play a game,” Adalynn signaled her follower to take out a thick “Encyclopedia of Herbs,” revealing a malicious smile. “You and Bessie can compete to see who can memorize more in three days.”
“If you won, I would return the bracelet to you, but if you lost-”
“Then kneel down and learn to bark like a dog three times, and then voluntarily withdraw from Ventura University! What do you think?”
As soon as these words were spoken, there was an uproar.
“You all went too far!” Lenora, who was usually timid, stepped forward angrily at that moment.
No one knew better than her that although her aunt was a renowned doctor, her cousin had never studied medicine since childhood; instead, it was Bessie who had specifically studied it for several years!
With such a basic comparison, this competition was simply unfair!
Her cousin didn’t know anything, but Bessie might have already memorized the “Encyclopedia of Herbs“!
But as soon as she uttered the words “unfair,” Adalynn and her group burst into mocking laughter. “No way, aren’t you the daughter of the miracle doctor? You can’t even compete? It’s not like we asked you to recite everything; we just wanted you to compare with Bessie. The daughter of a miracle doctor shouldn’t be worse than an outsider, right?”
They began to mock recklessly.
“Exactly, you didn’t dare to do that?”
“Her mother’s title as a miraculous doctor couldn’t have been fake, could it?”
“Not comparing is not impossible, but it’s better to just admit defeat now. First, kneel down and bark like a dog, then just roll out of Ventura University!”
Hearing those taunts and seeing Ophelia being mocked and ridiculed by everyone, Bessie quietly curled her lips into a smile, feeling extremely pleased in her heart..
However, at that moment-
“There’s no need to keep barking; I promised!”
Ophelia’s cold voice suddenly sounded.
“Cousin?!”
a and Lucy were so anxious that they lost their voices.
low could this be agreed to? It was clearly a trap!
