Mr.Kennedy snorted coldly at Ms.Emerson.He looked at Nicole with clear contempt.
"Ms.Emerson, you seriously can't be thinking that Nicole could win first place and win her bet with me?
Her grades are just that.It's fine if she doesn't participate in the Math Olympiad anymore.Let's not
waste our time here..."
Nicole sat there quietly as if she had not heard him say anything.She then gave the blabbering
Mr.Kennedy an impassive glance.
"Why, Mr.Kennedy? Are you afraid?"
"Me? Afraid?"
Mr.Kennedy let out a laugh before sneering, "You sure are stubborn.Fine, we'll wait with you!"
He sat back confidently as he sneeringly looked at the big screen on the stage.He was somewhat
impressed with Nicole's psychological fortitude.
'She refuses to give up first place that even Gary could not get!' Mr.Kennedy looked at the stage
impatiently, already thinking about how he would humiliate Nicole and Ms.Emerson when they went
back later.
‘I need to tell this to Ms.Thomson and get a reward!'
The host on the stage had taken a new card, and he handed it over to Sebastian Wyance, who had
been waiting for a good while now as he smiled at the crowd below the stage.
"Now it's the time for the first -class award! How about we get Mr.Wyance to announce the winner
himself? Let me tell you a secret.The winner of the first-class award this time is the only person who
had gotten full marks in the history of the Hustuaburg Math Olympiad!"
The crowd erupted in an uproar.
‘Full marks with such difficult questions?"
‘Is this person a robot?! The students of Class B were squeezing their way to where Gary was seated
with Vivian in the lead.She wanted to be the first person from Class B to praise Gary; Jack and Wayne
followed closely behind.
Gary had brought glory to Class B, and they could not just leave him alone like that! Behind them were
a few other students.
All of them sincerely felt that Gary was just too awesome and did not expect him to win the second-
class award closest to first place.
The host then continued, ''Then, let's invite our beloved Mr.Wyance to announce the winner of the first-
class award!"
Sebastian took the microphone from the host's hand.He smilingly looked at the anticipating students
below as he said, "The winner of first place in this Math Olympiad is..."
As he said that, Sebastian looked down at the card, and when he saw the name on the card, his pupils
suddenly shuddered as he paused for a few seconds without speaking.
When Mr.Ellison saw his reaction, the former quickly realized what was going on and let out a helpless
sigh.
‘So, this old coot saw the name, huh? ...in such a bombastic way, too."
‘It's just straight up unfair"
A look of disbelief soon appeared in Sebastian's eyes, but he quickly understood what was going on.
When Merwin Monroe on the first row saw the look of surprise on the governor's usually impassive
face, he was also taken aback.
‘It can't be a coincidence, right?"
Eric Anderson also noticed Sebastian's bizarre reaction.He was seated close by, and his curiosity was
literally clawing at him.He thought that it was a difficult name that had stumped Sebastian, and he was
wondering if he could provide Sebastian a good impression if he stood up to help.
After a moment of hesitation, he finally stood up and got close to take a look at the name on the card.
As soon as he saw the name, Eric felt a bolt of lightning striking him on the head.
