Eleanor Sterling glanced at the four mentors below the stage. Besides Aaron Underwood, the only one she knew was Audrey Zane.
In the past few days, Audrey Zane had been tutoring her, and the two had become quite familiar.
Although Audrey had some disdain for her transition from Chinese medicine to Western medicine, she still taught her diligently.
When Audrey didn’t see Eleanor on the written exam ranking list, she felt a bit disappointed, thinking Eleanor was a hopeless case.
Even the written test hadn’t been utilized, wasting her several days in vain.
Unexpectedly, Eleanor gave her a pleasant surprise.
Just now, when she saw that Eleanor was actually first in the written exam, Audrey was utterly stunned.
Some questions on the exam were beyond the syllabus, ones she hadn’t taught Eleanor.
Looking at Eleanor, she faintly felt, could she be hiding her abilities?
Eleanor glanced at Audrey and spoke coldly, "I choose Professor Audrey Zane."
Audrey breathed a sigh of relief and smiled, "Welcome, Miss Sterling, to be my student."
Not announcing the top three was to prevent professors from competing, but unexpectedly, she got Eleanor, the top student, by chance.
No need to compete with other professors for students, she hit the jackpot!
After Eleanor stepped off the stage, Audrey approached, looked at her face, and asked, "Eleanor Sterling, what’s wrong with your face?"
"I’m having an allergic reaction." Eleanor used the consistent excuse.
"Allergies can be serious or minor, let me prescribe some anti-allergy medicine for you."
Eleanor immediately declined her goodwill, "Professor Zane, I’ve already seen a doctor and got medication, there’s no need to trouble you."
Audrey then felt reassured, "Alright, go back to your seat, the interview needs to continue." Nᴇw novel chapters are publɪshed on novᴇlfire.net
Eleanor returned to her seat.
The interview resumed, the mentor’s assistant was about to announce the next name when suddenly a commotion arose at the door, and everyone turned to look.
At the doorway, an old man wearing a Mandarin jacket walked in.
Faye Sterling immediately recognized him as the person she saved that day, the one who wrote her a recommendation letter.
Aaron Underwood saw the newcomer and quickly approached, "Teacher, weren’t you in the hospital? How did you get discharged?"
Roman Morgan, with hands behind his back, said, "It’s nothing, admissions are important.
I was a bit worried, so I came personally to check, have the top three been decided? Did you manage to win anyone over?"
Aaron appeared embarrassed, "The top student in the written test was just decided, and she has chosen Professor Audrey Zane."
"What! Audrey Zane got the top student?"
Audrey’s experience wasn’t that deep, Roman was a bit taken aback that the top student chose her.
"Who is the top student?" he asked.
Aaron pointed to Eleanor and whispered in Roman’s ear, "It’s her, the one you were looking for before.
You wanted me to make things difficult for her, but unfortunately, she got first place, so I didn’t get the chance."
Roman turned to look at Eleanor in her seat, recognizing her after a moment. Just as he was about to speak.
Faye’s voice interrupted.
"Professor Morgan, hello, I saved you at the hotel that day, are you feeling better now?"
Roman turned to look at Faye, and his face suddenly darkened.
It’s her! That damned woman!
Roman angrily said, "What nonsense about saving me! You’re a clueless woman who’s still bold enough to claim that.
In the future, when someone has a medical incident, don’t meddle recklessly to avoid causing harm to others!"
Faye was stunned, her face turning pale.
She mumbled, "Professor... Professor Morgan, what do you mean? I performed CPR on you that day."
