Chapter 825

Samantha looked at Emily, her stern expression softening slightly. She even took the initiative to ask, "Think again—how many points did Jack score on the college entrance exam?" "Around 1,600, I think? I'm not entirely sure," Emily replied hesitantly. "Well, that's not bad." Samantha nodded, refraining from excessive praise. A moment ago, she had looked at Emily and Jack with nothing but disdain. If it had been Knox, Maverick, or Tatiana who made top scholars at Alnewgo, she would have sung their praises without end. Nevertheless, this was enough to shock the women sitting around them. They had all witnessed Samantha's earlier contempt for Jack and Emily—how she had practically wanted to kick them out on the spot. And now, here she was, actually complimenting Jack. For someone as proud as Samantha, this was almost unheard of. A ripple of envy spread through the room, but Samantha paid it no mind. To her, this once-dismissed relative was now someone worth keeping an eye on.
