Chapter 204
Sure enough.
Summer's lips twitched slightly before she mustered a patient tone. “I think it’s quite lucky forto have made
it to the national competition with my grades.”
Upon hearing this, Colton’s brow furrowed deeply. “Didn’t you get revision material from the teacher's
association? And what's the deal with Mirabella? Top score, first place? You can’t even beat her?”
Summer knew Colton would react this way and let out a light chuckle. “True. | had the study guides, but my dear
brother sneakily passed them on to her.”
Aiden immediately jumped up in denial, “You're blamingfor your poor performance? As if have nothing
better to do than to hand over your materials to her. You're making a scene over nothing!”
Without arguing. Summer calmly pulled out a delivery receipt from her bag. “You sent this. didn’t you?”

“What is this?” Mandy stood up, took the delivery receipt, and saw her son’s nas the sender and Mirabella
as the recipient. She immediately turned her gaze to Aiden.
Upon seeing the receipt. Aiden couldn’t help but show a guilty expression, but he still stubbornly denied, “I never
sent anything!”
Summer watched Aiden with disappointment and shook her head, “Aiden, | know you don’t want to acknowledge

Mentioning the matter of family pride, Colton’s face darkened even more than before. He snatched the delivery
receipt from Mandy's hand, glanced over it, and turned to Aiden. “Your little brat!”
He had always wondered how his adopted daughter, who hadn't even made it to the county's top high school,
could possibly score full marks and cfirst in the competition. Now, it all made sense.
Normally brash and unruly, Aiden still felt intimidated by the sight
dared not utter another word.
of Colton’s furious scowl and
Rubbing his forehead, Colton roared in a low voice, “Do you have any idea how many strings | had to pull to get
your sister this opportunity? How could you do this? Is your brain made of pudding?”
Fearing her husband might lash out at their child, Mandy quickly stepped in front of Aiden. “Aiden just wasn't
thinking straight...”
“It was all set for Summer to find a mentor in Riverdale during the nationals, but now, with this last-place result,
how could she possibly face them?” Colton was too angry for words.

Any influential family in Riverdale was leagues beyond the Gilbert family. If they could forge a connection, the
Gilberts’ status in Ashford could rise exponentially. That was why Colton had been scheming to pave the way for
Summer.

Mandy's expression fell, her mind buzzing, completely at a loss for words.
Observing her parents, who were only concerned with their own interests and reputation, Summer spoke
indifferently. “If there's nothing else, I'll head back to my room.”
Colton glanced at her but, in the end, said nothing more.
The next day.
Mirabella had barely settled into the classroom when Vincent appeared at the back door of The Advanced Class.
Since Mirabella sat in the last row, he didn’t bother with formalities and strode in from the back door. “Got the
answers worked out?”
Mirabella glanced at him emotionlessly, pulled out a book from her backpack, and said, “Don’t ctowith
science problems next time. I'm a humanities student now.”
With that, she impatiently extracted a sheet of paper with the solved equations from the book.
