Chapter 552

Declan held up a hand to stop the person who had just spoken. He then looked at Nicole and smiled.

What he was not sure about just now had become certain when he saw the monthly exam paper Nicole had answered.

'This girl must be a genius"

"Nicole, I've read your papers and think you're talented. Would you rather be my student and let's do mathematical research together?"

'What?!"

Everyone thought they were hallucinating. They could not believe that Declan had not only come but also asked Nicole to become his student.

Anyone who became a student of Declan meant they would soon become a top expert in mathematics in Hustuaburg.

While people were competing against each other trying to get Declan's approval, but to no avail, Nicole got it so effortlessly. They all looked at what had happened in front of their eyes.

Ms. Thompson and Mr.Kennedy were also surprised, their eyes widening as they could not accept it.

'We've accused Nicole, whom Professor Hancock approves of, of cheating. No wonder Mr. Ellison said what he had said just now"

Thinking of this, the faces of the two turned pale.

'Couldn't Professor Hancock tell if Nicole cheated?"

Mr.Kennedy froze in place, as if struck by lightning, at the thought of what Mr. Ellison had said and the test paper that he and Declan had verified. Meanwhile, everyone was silently hoping Nicole would agree to Declan's offer.

"I'm sorry." Nicole looked at the kind old man.

"I probably don't have that much time to spend on academic research. Thank you for that, anyway."

'She refused the offer!' Students from Class B looked on in shock as no one expected Nicole to reject Declan. Mr. Ellison stood aside and sighed softly in his mind. He was well aware of Nicole's personality; had Nicole not returned to San Joto, Declan would not have come to the Royal Creek Institute. He had told Declan not to hold out too much hope, but he did not give up and still wanted to try his luck.

Declan froze for two seconds, but because Mr. Ellison had given him the heads-up earlier, he did not feel too disappointed.

"It's fine.Let's be friends, and we can talk about things next time," he said with a sigh.

He was talking about discussion, not telling Nicole to ask him, which meant he was treating Nicole as an equal.

Gary was keenly aware of this. He looked at Nicole with light flashing in his eyes.

'She is no longer in the same league as us"

Everyone around looked at Nicole in amazement as Nicole nodded casually and stood up, picking up what she had already packed up in her hand, and walked out. Suddenly, an angry voice came from outside the door.

"Nicole, what have you done to get first place? You're shameless!"

Everyone looked toward the voice and saw Norah, who was from Class A.Her eyes reddened as she glared at Nicole with resentment. She was left with nothing and could not go home. All she wanted was to get her parents' attention by achieving good grades.
