Semua Bab My Wife, the Iron Lady: Bab 91 - Bab 100

After school in the afternoon, Alain's car was parked outside Riverside Senior High. It had been there for quite some time.Jasmine knew Alain picked Eden up from school daily, so she was the first to leave the classroom today, despite usually being the last.Sure enough, Alain's car was waiting at the school gate.She approached eagerly, fingers clutching her bag nervously. "Master Alain, my sister asked if I could join you both to Skygarden. She said she doesn't like going alone.""You're quite persistent," Horace remarked, rolling down the window from the passenger seat and sneering at her.Jasmine's expression paled, and she bit her lip, looking helpless.Alain glanced briefly at her before noticing Eden slowly exiting the school. He opened the car door and walked towards Eden.Left behind, Jasmine struggled to control her emotions. Just as she was about to get in, Alain's indifferent voice cut through, "There isn't enough space in the car for you. You should ride in your fa

Sunday arrived, the day of the test.Though it was just an exam, it followed all the protocols of a real assessment.Two teachers diligently monitored each class.In Class 3-18, there was no excitement. The impending test was set to torment them.And after the test came the parent-teacher conference.Their parents would unleash their own brand of torment afterward.That was why the students of Class 3-18 dreaded tests and exams the most.The morning test subject was math.Joy swiftly penned her answers as soon as the paper was handed out.Eden was not nodding off but calmly filling in her answers with an elegant pencil stroke—sometimes with her left hand, sometimes with her right; her handwriting was consistently beautiful.Twenty minutes in, Eden handed in her test paper.The rest of Class 3-18 could only stare in shock.Whispers spread among the students at the back, "What's going on? I haven't even finished half the questions, and the chief is already done?""I saw her

The tests dragged on for two full days.Eden consistently turned in her answer sheets just 20 minutes into each test, unwavering in her timing.After the exams, teachers began grading the papers, with results released on Tuesday morning during Grant's class.He entered the room with a stack of math papers and the results in hand. Setting the papers on the podium, he addressed the class with a smile. "Everyone's shown improvement this time. Our top scorer is Joy with 110 in math. Overall, she scored 505 across all subjects, ranking 200th in the year."Joy took her test paper, but her demeanor suggested something was off.Eden, noticing this, asked, "What's wrong?""505 marks and I'm only 200th? Looks like Rielton University's out of reach for me," Joy lamented, clearly disappointed.She had been striving hard to get into Rielton, the country's premier university, seeing it as a path to better career opportunities. "But it seems like I'll never make it."Eden listened silently, o

Alain and Eden spent about an hour at the Ward Estate before returning to Skygarden.As they entered, Jasmine rushed over, gripping Eden's hands with concern. "I heard you only scored twenty in your tests. Is that true?"Eden arched an eyebrow mischievously at Jasmine. "Yeap."Alain turned to her, surprised.He knew Eden had started at Riverside Senior High with zero in all subjects, but he wasn’t aware she was doing that poorly.Given her medical skills, if she could grasp medical journals, she must have some knowledge stored away.But twenty marks in total? Alain rubbed his forehead, feeling worried.With such grades, graduating would be challenging for her."What are we going to do? The National Assessment is coming up in about a semester and a half. How do you plan to get into university with these grades?" Jasmine glanced at Alain from the corner of her eye, secretly amused by how serious he looked.Eden strolled to the sofa and lounged lazily. "I probably won't get in."

Sinead had just finished organizing Eden's desk when a woman approached."Excuse me, are you in the wrong seat? This is my daughter's seat," Melinda said graciously, smiling brightly at Sinead.Unaware of Sinead's identity as Mrs. Ward, Melinda was puzzled when Sinead lifted her gaze and leaned back in the chair, speaking calmly, "I'm in the right seat."Despite meeting Melinda for the first time, Sinead knew about her from her investigation into the Hunt family.Sinead held no fondness for Melinda—an individual who could abandon a newborn and exploit her at every opportunity. Such people were among those Sinead detested most.Melinda was taken aback. "This is Eden Griffith's seat, and she's my daughter. May I ask who you are?"Melinda was aware of the affluent families attending Riverside Senior High and refrained from causing a scene.Maintaining her elegant demeanor in public was crucial for her image."I'm Eden's mother-in-law, Sinead," Sinead replied icily, her gaze pierci
