"Ella Lacey actually scored so low?"
"Holy cow, I'm shockingly stunned!"
"It's like a huge plunge, she fell from first to last, didn't she?"
"More thrilling than a roller coaster!"
"Seems like she's just a pretender."
"Why does a pretender have so many teachers defending her?"
"Maybe she has some backer..."
...
As Ella's exam results were made public, the whole class joined in a heated discussion, mostly unkind words, endless demeaning and mocking.
Especially, with Ginny Harl's little gang fanning the flames, the fire grew hotter.
However, Ella didn't care, she adjusted her sunhat nonchalantly, indifferent and composed, saying, "How pathetic you slaves to examinations are. From now on, the world won't have any stories about me…"
Leaving a group of people dumbfounded in the classroom:
"Has she gone mad?"
"Why do I feel she's pretty crazy?"
"Who does she think she is? Failed her college entrance exam, she might as well jump off a building...."
