Chapter 16

Author: Goldfish
A flicker of unease rose in Nicole's chest.

She remembered Aurora Vision as just a group of students, still in school. She had barely taken them seriously. How could such a team possibly hide a pro of that caliber?

"Feeling nervous?" Christopher glanced at her.

Nicole forced a smile. "Nervous? Not at all. In this kind of competition, the only ones who should be worried are my opponents."

Even if Aurora Vision had a powerhouse hidden within it, the group was still inexperienced.

With that thought in mind, Nicole allowed herself a small measure of relief.

The 24-hour extreme challenge allowed for breaks, but no one wanted to waste time. They all napped in shifts, catching only a few moments of rest.

When it finally ended, Amelia felt like a weight had been lifted off her shoulders. She leaned back in her chair, rubbing her temples, utterly exhausted.

The panel of judges consisted of experts from various aerospace departments, who scored each team using a detailed scoring system.

    Amelia was amused.Yes, she knew exactly what was going on. Did that mean she had to keep bending over backward for Nicole and her son?"Your mess is none of my concern."She grabbed Evelyn's hand and turned to leave.Earlier, Jasper had messaged her, saying there was an emergency meeting at the institute, and he couldn't make it. He said he could get one of his juniors to come instead, but Amelia didn't want the trouble and politely refused. She had initially asked him to come so he could participate in the activities, but the rest of the planned activities probably wouldn't even happen now. Because of that, she saw no reason to waste her time getting tangled up with Christopher and the others.Amelia had only taken a few steps when a group entered through the gate. She narrowed her eyes and looked at the person leading them.It was the school board.When the teachers saw them, they rushed over with anxious expressions."Principal!"Their sudden arrival made the teachers

    Evelyn's voice rang out, firm and clear.Lucia froze for a moment, then looked at Amelia. "The daughter you've raised certainly has big ambitions! Even if the Zephyr family were handed to her, do you really think she could hold it? Amelia, think carefully. You're a woman with no money and no power. What kind of future can you give Evie? The child will only suffer. Even if our family waited for you ten years, you could never stand on equal footing with us!"Evelyn was still young and naive. She didn't understand class, or that no matter how hard she tried, she could never surpass generations of privilege.Amelia pursed her lips. "Is this what a top-tier education teaches you? How to look down on people? No matter how poorly I fare, I'll never beg the Zephyr family for a single penny."Christopher's icy gaze swept over Amelia, and his voice grew colder. "Do you even know what you're saying?"The chill radiating from him left no doubt—he was angry.Nicole stepped forward, trying t

    Amelia's lips curled into a cold, faint smirk as she tilted her head toward Christopher. "Handle the public relations."She looked at him, but he didn't meet her eyes. He simply pulled out his phone to send a quick message to his secretary.The TV crew knew exactly who the Zephyr family was. They couldn't afford to cross them. The moment the incident started, they had cut the live broadcast.However, there was no way for the TV crew to predict what Lucia would say. By the time she spoke, the broadcast had already captured it.Any clips that got out would inevitably be blown out of proportion and overanalyzed.Yet the Zephyr Group's influence was immense. For them, even something this small could be suppressed with a single command.Amelia smiled mockingly.That was how Christopher was. He was never one to see things clearly, nor did he care about how Evelyn or she felt."Even if it had gone live, it's just a family dispute."Lucia had made her point crystal clear. With capital

    The teacher lowered her eyes to the score sheets. "I am pleased to announce that the first-place winner of the math competition is Evelyn Zepyhr!"A look of quiet pride spread across Amelia's face. Evelyn was so excited she nearly jumped for joy."What do you mean?" Nicole frowned at Christine. "Wasn't Nate the top scorer for this round?"Christine smiled. "There was a mistake when the papers were first handed out. Nathan's score is indeed the highest for the kindergarten-level test. However, the paper Evelyn completed was a first-grade math test. She got a perfect score on a first-grade test, so first place rightfully goes to her."Nathan's face darkened.Impossible!There was no way Evelyn could solve a first-grade paper."She must have cheated!" Nathan pointed at Evelyn, his voice rising. "There's no way she could have done this on her own!"Evelyn jumped. "I didn't cheat! I did it all by myself. Mommy taught me earlier!"Amelia was a little surprised herself. She had only

    Evelyn listened intently, as if she had just discovered a whole new world.Amelia looked at her. "Did you remember everything?"Evelyn nodded, her voice soft. "I think I've got it memorized!"-When it was time for the competition, Evelyn and Nathan went up on stage together.Amelia sat in the audience, her eyes fixed on Evelyn. She didn't know how much of what she had taught Evelyn had actually sunk in, but she wasn't expecting Evelyn to absorb it all.If Evelyn could understand the principles, that was already impressive. Amelia didn't even expect her to execute everything flawlessly on stage. After all, she was still just a four-year-old.The first round was a rapid-fire question-and-answer session, with points awarded for correct answers.A teacher called out the questions.Evelyn was the first to stand and answer in every round, while Nathan only managed to get a few chances.There were even times when he stood up and couldn't calculate the answer in his head.He was fr

    "Then please properly teach your son, Mr. Zephyr, Ms. Randall. If he lays a hand on Evie again, I will make sure the school punishes him."They were attending an elite kindergarten, a place where every child came from a wealthy or noble family."If Nate keeps acting this way, other parents will see him as a threat and worry about their children's safety. You know exactly how the school handles children like this," Amelia said coldly.With that, she took Evelyn's hand and left.Christopher had remained expressionless the entire time. Nicole glanced at him and sighed. "Women are such a headache. They hold grudges over the smallest things. I swear I haven't done anything to your wife, have I? Don't tell me you're going to throw your buddy under the bus for a woman like other men."Christopher's face stayed icy. "Ignore her."-The parent-teacher meeting began, and all the parents sat on the school playground, facing the stage.The stage was set with all kinds of competition equi
