Edward responded with a mix of excitement and apprehension, "Please, Uncle Beau, I never meant to expose myself!"

Professor Beau let out a sneering snort, his tone dripping with disdain, "Even with this, you won't be able to make it to Walters."
Edward looked up abruptly, his expression a mixture of confusion and concern, "What do you mean?"
"It needs more than just scores," Professor Beau said darkly.
"But... I thought you would help me!" Edward burst out, desperation evident in his voice. "With connections, or something like that?"
