Chapter 220 Diligence
"You, just you wait. I will immediately tell Lady Madam and accuse you of cursing Miss Lola to death!" Maria was about to report her.
Lauren just smiled, "Go ahead. You said it yourself, and all the servants in the house can testify! If we're talking about curses, it was you who cursed Miss Abella first! I'm just fighting back. The person with reason is me!"
"You..."
"It was you who came up with the idea of digging a hole and lying in it. What can I do about it?"
Maria couldn't stand it anymore and couldn't help but reprimand, "Enough! Do you really think I can't do anything to you?"
"I'm curious, what dirty tricks are you planning? Framing and accusing me? Or plotting against Miss Abella? Don't forget, that video of you trying to make Miss Abella slip, it's still in her hands!"
At the mention of this, Maria suddenly felt a little guilty and dared not speak out in anger.
"In a moment, I'll have Miss Abella send me the video. If you dare to mock and bully Miss Abella in front of so many people again, I'll send the video to Lady Madam and see who gets kicked out of this house first!"
Maria was furious. She couldn't believe that this despicable person was someone she had brought in herself. How could she now turn against her for Abella?! Abella must have given this despicable person many benefits!
"Do you hear me?" After Lauren's threat, she finally left satisfied.
Maria stared at her retreating figure, filled with anger!
Mrs. Medici, elegant and composed, arrived at the front gate, emitting an aura of nobility. These years of privileged upbringing made every one of her movements exude the grace of an aristocratic lady.
Before opening the door, a group of reporters crowded around the ornate railing, desperately asking questions from behind the gate.
"Madam, we heard that the top scholar is in your house? Can you please reveal what score the top scholar achieved this time?"
"We heard that professors from Stanford University came to your house to recruit students. What kind of conditions did they offer, and who did the top scholar finally choose?"
"Your household seems to be the only one with a high school senior on Long Island Manor. Is it Lola Medici?"
"Can we have a glimpse of the top scholar?"
"We'd like to take a photo of the top scholar. Can you open the door, please?"
...
She held out her hand, gesturing for them to be quiet, and smiled as she spoke, "Thank you all for your concern. The top scorer is indeed from our family. Her name is Abella, and she got a perfect score on this exam. Just now, I heard from a professor at Stanford University that she is the national champion!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the whole crowd erupted in excitement, desperately taking pictures and recording.
"Besides her name and score, please refrain from sharing any other unrelated information, such as her family background or photos. Our child prefers to keep a low profile and dislikes drawing attention."
Everyone was shocked. They had never expected the country's richest person to have a humble daughter named Abella. They had always assumed that there was only one daughter named Lola...
Although they hadn't seen the top scorer in person, with such an excellent background, she must be beautiful too!
"She must be a combination of beauty and talent!"
"Thank you, Madam, for sharing. You're truly fortunate to have both Miss Lola, who is outstanding, and a top scorer daughter."
Although everyone was hearing Abella's name for the first time, these wealthy individuals often hid their children and kept them away from the spotlight.
For example, some wealthy individuals would send their children abroad for further studies from a young age, only to reunite when they grew up...
Some wealthy individuals would keep their children hidden in a certain place within the country, waiting for the right moment to reveal their identities for the sake of their children's safety.
Although everyone had only heard of Lola, it was normal not to have heard about Abella! Perhaps Abella had been studying abroad for a long time and returned only after taking the SAT.
Since Madam had said not to disclose any other background information, they could only directly focus on the topic of her name.
Quickly, the hashtag #Perfect Scorer Abella# appeared as the number one trending topic.
When Abella returned to her room, she found numerous unread messages on her phone. She replied to Phillipe first.
"Just now, a professor from Stanford University came, but I have applied to Medical University."
Phillipe quickly called her, sounding surprised and indulgent, "The top scorer is you?"
Abella raised an eyebrow. The news spread so quickly? It hadn't even been ten minutes since those reporters left, and it had already become such a big deal?
"My Abella is amazing," Phillipe sincerely praised.
Abella smirked, "You're not bad either."
Phillipe was somewhat surprised. How did this little girl know that he was the top scorer from seven years ago so quickly? Did she investigate or pay attention back then?
"Medical University is great, and it's close to me too," Phillipe said indulgently with a smile. "I like seeing you saving people. You are so dedicated and beautiful when you do that."
"I'm not beautiful at other times?"
"You're beautiful all the time, but when you save people, you're especially charming."
Abella lifted the corner of her lips. "What if I choose a school abroad this time?"
"Then I'll move my office overseas. Wherever you are, that will be my home."
"You'll be exhausted, won't you?" Abella knew that even though they could communicate online and through phone calls, if any problems arose, it would still
Wanting to go back to deal with things in her home country, the countless hours wasted on the road were a big concern for Abella.
"What will you do if you go to college and see other handsome and sunny boys and abandon me?" Abella couldn't help but smile upon hearing this.
"I don't want to lose such a lovely, beautiful, and amazing fiancée because of distance."
"The boys in college are too young." To her, they were too immature, like a group of younger brothers, and wouldn't elicit any romantic feelings.
She smirked and said, "Be more mature."
Phillipe indulgingly asked, "Is your fiancé considered mature then?"
"He's quite mature, but sometimes a bit childish."
"Is it when he sticks to you? Who made you so adorable? I'm so happy when I'm with you..." Phillipe sincerely said, "I'm really happy, so I want to be with you all the time."
Abella's heart felt like it had just spilled a jar of honey, but she still said, "I have to reply to my older brother's message, he's still waiting for me."
"Then I'll call you later."
"Mhmm." Abella said softly, "Goodbye."
After hanging up the phone, Abella informed her brother of the good news again and then opened Granpa Wilson's WhatsApp, replying with a few sentences.
There was also a congratulatory message from Clare on WhatsApp. After replying, Abella opened the next unread message...
It was from her former homeroom teacher.
"Abella, I saw the news, you're amazing! I'm proud of you, my dear student!"
