His Versatile Gorgeous Wife novel Chapter 943

Silence ensued before one student finally broke it. “Haha, if I were you, I would not come to school.”

It set off a trail of murmurings among the crowd. “Exactly! How does she still have the guts to come here? Is she unaware of the things that Wendy had done in school?”

“Oh dear, I don't know whether she should laugh or cry in this situation. Wendy might be good at her studies, but she has a questionable character.”

An arguably more sensible student stopped them and retorted in Cecilia's defense. “She is a visitor, so let's all be reasonable. It could be solely Wendy's fault for turning out like that. What does that have to do with her mother? We should not go overboard. At least Wendy made it to the top five, right?”

Cecilia felt lost.

She was not dumb and realized that the student not only did not look up to Wendy, but they also hated her.

Before this, she already knew that her daughter could not get along with her classmates. However, she thought it was only those people and did not expect the rest of Wendy's schoolmates to share the same sentiments too.

As Wendy's mother, Cecelia could feel the hostility and contempt from the students' eyes.

When have I ever received such treatment with Wendy in Horington?

In the heat of the moment, Cecilia fumed, “Who are you to judge my daughter? If you have so much time to talk behind her back, you should use it to study instead. Come talk to me only when you can do as well as Wendy and manage to be the top scorer in the preparatory class.”

Immediately, everyone kept quiet.

Cecilia presumed that they were scared off by Wendy's excellent performance in school, and she felt great pleasure again.

Arrogantly, she taunted, “Well, do you think that I don't know that all of you are merely jealous of Wendy's grades? She even managed to place first among the elite students in the preparatory class.”

For a few seconds, the silence continued before the students started to burst out in laughter.

It was deafening.
