Rebirth of the Deadly Beauty

As soon as Yolanda said that, everyone was stunned.

The next second, they fixed her with their mocking gaze.

"Hah! First place? How bold!"

"If you can take first place in First Academy, monkeys could probably get into Creybia University!"

Philip shook his head and said with a smirk, "I'd advise you to be more realistic. Don't embarrass yourself." Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

Scott's eyes were filled with derision as well.

"Yeah. Forget about placing first. I doubt you'll even make it into the first hundred!"

First Academy's exams were the hardest in all of Riverdale City. Forget about getting first place. It would be pretty great if Yolanda could place anywhere other than the bottom ten.

Yolanda didn't pay attention to the grating voices around her and stared right at Vivian.

It didn't matter how boisterous the others were being. In the end, Vivian had the final say.

Vivian frowned and glanced at Yolanda coldly.

"You're unrepentant. Since you're not satisfied, I'll give you a chance.

"If you can take first place on the first exam of the school year, I'll let you stay in the family temporarily. I could even apologize to you on my own initiative. If you can't achieve that, pack up your things and get out of the family."

Yolanda raised her brow.

"If I can't do it, I'll have to leave the family. If I can, I'll only get an apology from you… That doesn't seem fair."

Philip's face became stern. "Yolanda, enough is enough!"

Vivian shot Yolanda a contemptuous glare. "Fine. If you want fairness, I'll give you that. If you can place first in your year, I'll get on my knees and apologize to you."

"Mom!"

"Mom, you should think this through!"

Vivian's words had startled everyone.

Even Diana looked shocked as she frantically said, "Mom, she's talking nonsense. You don't have to engage with her. Even if I force her out of the house, she won't be able to defy me. Why did you stoop to her level?"

Vivian waved her off. "Shut it. All of you."

At that, she turned to Yolanda. "Are you satisfied with that condition?"

Yolanda nodded. "Yes."

Nevertheless, Vivian added, "However, I have another condition."

As she said that, she glanced askance at her grandson, Paul Henderson, who was beside her.

She continued, "If you can't place first in your year, you'll have to withdraw from First Academy, and give your spot to your cousin Paul."

"Okay." Yolanda agreed readily.
