The Billionaire's True Heiress: From Fake Jewel to Real Crown novel Chapter 462

If the homeroom teacher were in Claire’s shoes, she wouldn’t even bother taking the college entrance exam.

“I actually want to take it,” Claire said, surprising her.

“Why?” The teacher stared at her, her brows knitting together. “Claire, think carefully. Taking the exam isn’t necessarily a better choice than just going straight to university with a recommendation.”

She thought for a second. “You’ve already spent so much time on competitions.”

“Even though you ranked first in the last practice test, you’re about to head abroad for more contests.”

“Are you sure you can handle all of this?”

Claire could tell the teacher was asking out of genuine concern.

“I don’t really want to major in math at university,” Claire replied.

Truthfully, she had only kept competing because it had become a habit.

The teacher was quiet for a moment, at a loss for words. Then she remembered—Claire hadn’t asked to compete in the first place. It had been her adoptive mother’s idea, and when the school found out about the new schedule and realized Claire might win an early admission spot, they pushed her to join as well.

Did that mean Claire didn’t actually enjoy math?

“Do you not like math?” the teacher finally asked.

Claire shook her head. “It’s not that. I like it, but there’s something I like even more.”

“What major are you interested in?” Now the teacher sounded genuinely curious.

No one had really ever bothered to ask Claire that before. Whatever her parents wanted, she did. That was just her life. She’d tried all sorts of things, whether she cared about them or not, simply because her family expected her to.

“I want to study medicine,” Claire said.
