The annual evaluation result had just been announced and I got such an average score. The score was enough for me to attend the successor class and final test.
"Your highness, the empress called for you." A maid approached me.
I just nodded and walked toward Rosaline's palace followed by Noah. Rosaline, what would that woman do? Would she beat me? She wouldn't be happy if I got a good score at the evaluation. She only used my bad score as her reason to whip me.
Along my way, several eyes looked at me. Those servants may be surprised with what I got in evaluation.
"I heard his score is higher than usual." "Was he cheating or something?" "There's no way he could get that score right?" "I think Lady Whitley is her highness' person. Yet once she became his study partner, his score boosted."
I could hear the servants gossiping about me. Maybe Rosaline would use the rumor that I was cheating as her reason to whip me. Which part would it be? My back? My legs? My hands?
