Me Before You

Chapter 61

"Teacher Paul, why you are only praising them?" Luna Samuel looked at Teacher Paul and asked, "Claire Ashley also did well in the exam, didn't she?"

Like John Peter and Anna Stark, Claire was also admitted to Jingzhou University. In their class, only three of them got admission to Jingzhou University.

Luna Samuel's words diverted everyone's attention, and they looked at Claire Ashley.

Mr. Paul was stunned for a moment. He looked at Claire and smiled. "Claire also did well in the exam."

However, his attitude towards Claire was obviously not as enthusiastic as towards Anna and John. Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.

Claire Ashley was standing aside, her face seemed gloomy.

Luna Samuel held Claire Ashley's hand and felt that it was a little unfair, "how can Teacher Paul do this? By the way, how many marks did you get in the exam? "

"..." Claire didn't answer.

She usually had good grades because often Anna Stark helped her in studies, so she was also among the toppers of the class. It was just... She didn't do very well in the entrance exam of Jingzhou University because she was nervous.

She didn't tell anyone about her marks. But she had got the admission and she thought this was enough for her. She didn't think that the result really mattered.

That's why when Luna Samuel asked her about marks, she felt a little embarrassed.

After today's incidents, Claire really started disliking Luna Samuel. She just wanted to get rid of her.

During the meal, Anna Stark sat in a chair next to Teacher Paul. Teacher Paul had also heard that she was not going to university, so he tried to motivate her.

"Anna, it's not easy to get admission to Jingzhou University. Don't be silly. If you quit studies and go to work now you can surely earn a little amount of money and can improve the situation of your family, but it's the matter of your whole life. Quitting studies will ruin your future. If you didn't seize this chance, you would regret it later... "

"I know." Anna Stark understood these things. "I will never give up," she said to Mr. Paul.

In fact, she had already made a decision. She didn't want to give up on her studies but after getting Teacher Paul's concern her heart was touched. He always supported her and encouraged her.

But her own mother tried to demotivate her, tried to stop her from continuing her studies.

John Peter was also sitting close to Teacher Paul, he could hear the conversation clearly. With his deep dark eyes, he looked at Anna Stark.

Mr. Paul's words of encouragement touched Anna Stark's heart. After dinner, when Mr. Paul talked to other students, she excused them and went to the bathroom.

She locked herself in the bathroom. Mostly, she stayed strong and faced everything. But she was a human, there were sometimes when she felt weak.

For example, Mr. Paul's words made her felt her hidden scars.

Just to continue her studies and to be able to go to university, she had already used every possible mean.

Tears blurred her vision!

She endured for a long time and didn't let her tears came out. However, her eyes turned red.

At the same time her cell phone rang, she took out the phone and looked at it. It was Daniel. She adjusted her mood and answered the phone, "Sir."

"Where are you? Went to work again?" Daniel Taylor's voice was deep, and she could hear his concern.

Anna Stark looked at the time and found that it was almost seven o'clock.

"No, we had a small class get-together today."

"I'll send Jack Smith to pick you up." He was worried for her safety. He didn't want her to stay out at night.

"No, we have finished our meal. If you send Mr. Smith it would take a long time, and I will have to wait for him. I'm coming back in a while."

"All right!" Daniel Taylor did not force her.

Anna hung up the phone and washed her face.
