The Omnipotent Mrs. Ranford By Darlene Wright
Chapter 40

Chapter 40

Because the relationship between Alexandra and Julian could not be known to the outside world, Julian sent her to the opposite side of the school gate.

Just as she got out of the car, Alexandra took out a kitten mask from her backpack and put it on.

The mask was light pink, but there was a cat nose and mouth drawn on the nose. There were also a few lifelike whiskers on both cheeks.

The mask covered most of her face, revealing only two eyes that were as bright as stars.

“Is your nose cold?”

Julian looked at her strange outfit and couldn’t help but ask her.

She blinked her eyes in embarrassment and took off her mask, revealing the tip of her nose and her cherry-pink lips. “I’m afraid they’ll snap photos of me again. That way, they won’t recognize me. I don’t want to be à celebrity.”

Julian was speechless.

“Also…” Alexandra lowered her head and leaned closer to him, afraid that others would hear her. “Mr. Ranford, I feel so guilty. You really didn’t collude with the research team to give me a fake result, right? How could I get such a high score?”

Julian was speechless.

Seeing that he was silent, Alexandra tilted her head and looked at him twice before giving up.

“Then I’m leaving! Mr. Ranford, thank you for driving me here!”

She put on her mask

and waved at him outside the car window.

She turned around and skipped away.

Julian was in a daze for a moment. Just as he was about to start the car again, he seemed to have thought of something, but he couldn’t remember anything.

When she looked back, the person who had knocked her down was long gone.

Alexandra rubbed her knees. She was still sitting on the ground.

“Hello, are you alright?” A clear male voice came from above. Alexandra looked up.

He saw a tall boy in white sportswear. His facial features were handsome, sunny, and energetic.

He was leaning over to look at her. Although there was a slight smile on his lips, his handsome eyebrows were pressed together as if he was concerned about her injuries.

Alexandra felt so embarrassed. She shook her head.

The boy looked at her knees suspiciously and extended a hand. “If there’s nothing else, get up quickly

Alexandra glanced at his hand. It was tanned and had well-defined and slender joints.

She didn’t hesitate. Instead of taking his hand, she climbed to her feet on her own.

As soon as she stood still, she felt a numbing pain in her left knee. She hissed and endured it.

The boy naturally retracted his hand, but when he saw her frown, he asked her, “Is it serious? Do you want me to take you to the infirmary?”

“No, no, I’m fine. Thank you.” Alexandra stood there for a while and felt that the pain had disappeared.

She waved her hand and wanted to get to the academic affairs office as soon as possible.

Seeing that she seemed to be in a hurry to go somewhere, the boy said, “Alright then. Walk slowly and be careful.”

“Thank you.” Alexandra smiled at him and limped away.

The boy looked at her back and muttered to himself. “She looks a little familiar.”

When Alexandra arrived at the academic affairs office, she realized that it was much livelier than she had imagined.

Other than Mr. McFadden and the dean of the academic affairs office, Erik, there were also a few people she didn’t know. They all looked like university teachers.

They sat on both sides of the long conference table. When they saw Alexandra enter, their gazes were all focused on her face.

When Alexandra knocked on the door with her kitten mask on, she realized that everyone was looking at her at the same time.

Alexandra quietly walked into the office and took off her mask.

When Colin saw Alexandra, he immediately went up to her. “Alex, you came at the right time. I was just about to look for you!”

“Mr. McFadden.” Alexandra greeted him politely, but she also felt a little unnatural about his sudden enthusiasm.

Last night, Mr. McFadden had planned to make her accept her own bad luck.

However, now was not the time to dwell on this matter. Besides, she was the one who suggested it last night. Therefore, when she saw Mr. McFadden again, Alexandra was very calm and her attitude was very generous.

It was as if nothing had happened last night.

Colin was initially worried, but when he saw Alexandra’s magnanimity, he relaxed a little.

At this moment, Alexandra realized that several teachers in the office were sizing her up. Sᴇaʀch Thᴇ FɪndNovᴇl.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Colin led her to the center of the office and introduced them to her. “These are the heads of the university’s departments. They’re all very interested in you and want you to join their departments. However, it depends on your own opinion. You can decide which department you want to join.”

Now she realized they were here for a competition.

Even now Alexandra still did not know what her score of 75 meant.

It meant that her ability was not inferior to the top student of the Department Mathematics and Science, William.

It indicated that she had extraordinary intelligence and logical thinking.

It also meant that she would become a celebrity in the school and be sought after by all the popular departments.

Alexandra didn’t know about this. Her heart was pounding and she felt extremely guilty.

She felt that Julian had spent money to buy her 75 points.

Hence, Alexandra was even more dumbfounded after listening to the teachers’ introduction of their own departments.

“Pleasure to meet you, Alex. Welcome to the Department of Mathematics and Science of University of Highclere. In the Department of Mathematics and Science, not only can you learn cutting-edge knowledge of mathematics and science internationally, but you can also have the opportunity to study abroad as an exchange student. Every winter, the Department of Mathematics and Science will have an academic exchange with Halver University. Halver University is the world’s most advanced university!”

Alexandra listened to the introduction of the Mathematics and Science department’s head, who was bald, in amazement. However, she thought it must involve a lot of mental effort.

“Hello, Alex, a middle-aged man wearing black-rimmed glasses said. “I’m the dean of the Chemistry Department. Mathematics, physics, and chemistry are inseparable. I wonder if you’re interested in chemistry?”

The other short-haired lady came up with an equally imposing presence. She raised her eyebrows and said, “Alex, you’re from the medical faculty. Our medical faculty welcomes you. A smart girl like you should hold a scalpel and use your wisdom and love to save lives.”

Alexandra was a little overwhelmed.

Then came the Computer Science Department, Civil Engineering Department, Finance Department, Sociology Department…

Alexandra almost fainted when she heard that.

She wasn’t going to any of them.

Perhaps Julian would find Ace soon. She didn’t see the need to push herself so hard during this period of time.

“Manufacturing robots? Saving the dead and helping the injured? Joining the top three internet platforms in the world?” she thought.

She didn’t want it!

Everyone looked at Alexandra.

Even Mr. McFadden was eagerly anticipating which one Alexandra would choose.

To him, no matter which department she entered, she would be one of the best among her peers.

Alexandra looked at the teacher on the left and then at the teacher on the right. She asked slowly, “Um… doesn’t our school have a chef major? A pastry major? The kind that can make delicious food every day?”

Everyone was speechless.

Colin burst out laughing and said to everyone, “I didn’t expect Alex to have such a great sense of humor. Alright, ladies and gentlemen, thanks for your keen interest in Alex. I think Alex needs to think about it carefully, right, Alex?”
