Chapter 148



.

Angela immediately put her hand to her head in pain and took a step back. “What are you doing, Nora!”

While Angela was still in shock, Nora quickly stuffed the strands of hair into a plastic bag. After stuffing it in her pocket, she raised her eyebrows and replied, “I didn’t do anything.”

Angela said angrily, “You obviously hurt me right now! You’re bullying me.”

Impatience crossed Nora’s eyes. “Yes, I’m bullying you – so what?”

So what, so what?

Angela had never been able to beat her sister in fights. When they were kids, she was fat and strong. However, after they grew up, he had beaten her every time he saw her because he really wanted to.

He took a step back with reddened eyes. “I’m going to tell daddy! Don’t be so smug yet, Nora!”

Nora waved nonchalantly and turned to leave.

“Where are you going?” Angela panicked again as she watched her leave. “Dad told you to take me to Principal Shaw so we can talk about my graduate school application! Didn’t you hear what he said?”

However, Nora got into her car and drove away as if she really hadn’t heard.

This time, Angela didn’t dare stand in her way.

Forced to watch helplessly as she drove off, Angela stomped her foot in anger.

She looked back at the office building. She wanted to go inside but was prevented again. She was so angry that she immediately blamed Lisa. She yelled at her, “Why didn’t you stop her a moment ago?”.

Lisa ducked her head and said nothing. However, her delicate eyebrows furrowed.

Angela grew angrier as she saw his reaction. “How unlucky you are. Who do you want to show that long expression you put on every day? Come , come on. are you going to keep standing there and embarrassing yourself?”

Lisa sighed and followed Angela. As the two were about to leave, they suddenly heard a voice coming from behind them.

“Both of you, please wait a moment! Director Shaw is asking you to come upstairs.”

Upstairs.

Director Shaw was astonished when he saw through the windows that the big chief had returned in her very wild looking jeep.

Then, he saw her say a few words to the two girls downstairs before driving off again. Immediately, Principal Shaw could no longer sit down.

Anti was a world-renowned master surgeon. She had done him a great favor when she agreed to perform the operation, so at that moment he was thinking about how to return the favor.

So she hurried to tell her assistant to invite them upstairs.

The man, usually stern and serious, looked at Lisa and Angela with a big smile. He asked, “How are you two related to An…I mean, to Miss Smith?”

How were they related?

Angela’s eyes lit up.

In Angela’s opinion, Nora must have known Director Shaw through the Andersons. She immediately smiled and replied, “I’m her younger sister!”.

Director Shaw was more gracious. “Her younger sister, is she a medical college student?”

Angela quickly shook her head. “No, I am not, Director Shaw. I completed my undergraduate studies at the University of California Medical School. These are the results of my exams. I came to New York because I plan to apply as a graduate student under you this year.”

He planned to apply as a graduate student under your tutelage?

Director Shaw became even happier. He picked up Angela’s results and took a couple of glances.

Angela’s grades were very solid, and she was always among the top grades every year. Otherwise, Henry and Wendy would not have treated her like a precious treasure. Nor would the Grays have accepted her becoming Anthony’s fiancée instead of Nora.

Principal Shaw praised, “Your grades are very good! How are your written test scores on the graduate entrance exams?”

Angela instantly became even more excited. She replied, “I passed the test, so now I’m waiting for the interview notification!”

“Okay, I’ll keep you in mind!”.

Director Shaw then looked at Lisa. “You are…”

Before she could finish, Angela stepped in front of her and said, “You’re my classmate who walked me here. Principal Shaw, if you give me a chance, my sister and the Andersons will certainly return your kindness.”

Return their kindness?

A horrified Director Shaw replied, “Not at all, not at all.”

Anti had only to say the word and he would take in as many graduate students as she wanted.

Angela’s eyes twinkled as she heard what he said. She couldn’t help but feel that the Andersons’ social status was even higher than she had imagined…. She smiled and said, “Director Shaw, if there’s nothing else, can we go for now?”.

Director Shaw nodded. “Sure, you can go home and wait for the interview notice.”

After that, Angela led Lisa toward the exit after glaring at her.

As soon as they were out, Angela, seeing Lisa dawdling, sneered, “Why are you moving so slowly? Are you planning to ask me to introduce you to Director Shaw? Didn’t you behave rather haughtily just now? Didn’t you say that people shouldn’t use such connections to their advantage?”

When she was calling Henry a moment ago, Lisa had tried to persuade her otherwise. She had said, “Let’s work hard on our own, Angela. Let’s not give Nora any problems…. Besides, one should apply for graduate school on one’s own merits after all…”

Lisa lowered her head as she listened to what Angela said. She said, “You just said that you are Nora’s younger sister. It’s not very nice to use the Anderson name without her permission, is it?”

Angela immediately looked at her. “I’m Nora’s biological younger sister, so what’s the problem even if I use her? However, you’re just a cousin, so of course, you can’t do the same!”

At that moment, she eagerly grabbed her cell phone. When she did, she happened to see someone on Facebook mentioning her and asking her how the exam went, how her interview went, and whether she was confident or not.

Angela hadn’t mentioned anything about this before. After all, when Anti had exposed her lie in front of everyone in California the other time, the university had punished her and left a stain on her record. She had also been disqualified from receiving recommendations on graduate school applications.

Now, however, she could finally hold her head high and brag on her social media. He wrote, “Director Shaw has said my grades are very good when we have met. He wants me as a graduate student.”

A furor swept through his social circle immediately.

‘Principal Shaw, is that the same Principal Shaw I’m thinking of, dammit!’

‘Angela is so impressive! She was already successful when she was in college. Now that she’s in New York, she’s become a star again! Dear Miss Smith, please don’t forget your former classmates when you succeed in the future.”

Everyone showered Angela with compliments, making her feel like she was on cloud nine.

Lisa was the only one standing and looking at her hesitantly as she thought, ‘I think Principal Shaw told her to expect an interview notice right about now instead of an enrollment notice, didn’t he? But if I remind him, he’s sure to scold me again. In that case, I’d better not say anything.’

When the two girls left, the nearly fifty-year-old professor took off his glasses and massaged his temples.

For some reason, he didn’t like that girl at all.

After teaching so many graduate students, you could tell he could already see through those kids’ thoughts at a glance.

There was too much in that girl’s eyes, and her attitude toward medicine was impure.

Director Shaw took out his cell phone and sent Nora a text message detailing the time and place of the young patient’s operation.

The big boss replied this time with great alacrity, “Understood.”

Director Shaw stared at her message. Then, suddenly, she sent another message: ‘Do you have a younger sister named Angela? She says she is thinking of applying to be my graduate student.’

One should not keep quiet after doing a good deed.

He should not let Anti think he is useless.

The next moment, however, he received a reply from her…..
