The Rewritten Love: A Second Beginning By Max Charming chapter 187
Albert had already packed up and left the classroom at the last minute. Madelyn quickly picked up her books and said to Yvonne hurriedly, “You go ahead. I have something to take care of.”
Yvonne was about to say something but shrugged when she saw Madelyn leave in a rush.
Madelyn quickly caught up with Albert, saying, “Mr. Newton, hold on, please.”
Albert stopped, “M-Madelyn?”
“It’s me, Mr. Newton. I’d like to ask about the results of the last exam.”
Albert smiled and said, “You attended the classes, so why are you still worried about the results? It’s quite obvious that you’ve earned your spot.”
Madelyn still insisted, “Can I look at my scores?”
“What’s there to look at? I don’t have your test paper with me right now, but you did very well. Especially in the final major question, you used three different methods. The second method involved university-level calculus knowledge. Honestly, I was quite surprised that were able to write out that formula,” Albert’s eyes filled with contentment as he spoke.
“However…”

“Albert!” Before Madelyn could finish her sentence, a teacher walking down from the other side called for him. “We’ll talk about this later.”
The more Albert acted like this the more uncertain Madelyn felt. She worried that the only reason she had gotten in was because Yvonne had used her connections to secure the her.

‘If that’s the case, isn’t it really unfair to Danny? This girl… it’s not like I really need to join.’
Madelyn returned to the classroom. She wanted to talk to Danny and clear things up. However, Madelyn did not see him there, so she asked his desk mate, Alexander Stewart.
“He didn’t come this morning. He’s probably on leave,” said Alexander.
Yvonne took Madelyn to the restroom. Yvonne washed her hands at the sink and looked at herself in the mirror. Then, she turned to Madelyn beside her. “What’s wrong? You’ve been looking unhappy all day.”
“Tell me. Why didn’t Mr. Newton announce my scores? Did you say something to him to help me join the team? That’s why I…” Madelyn looked at her, trying to discern something from her subtle expression.
Yvonne shook the water off her hands. “I don’t know about that. However, I did personally recommend you and submitted your previous exam results to Mr. Newton. After he reviewed them, he seemed satisfied. I don’t know why he didn’t announce your and Danny’s scores
either. Girl, why are you thinking so much, anyway? The process is over, so you don’t have to dwell on it. You’ve achieved your goal, and that’s that. Relax!”
Madelyn was sensitive. “Could Danny be angry because I took his spot? No wonder he’s been giving me hostile looks for the past few days.”
Madelyn had learned about his family situation. His family was not well off, and his mother was sick. He had gotten into Ventrocloud High School based on his academic abilities and by working really hard in his studies. However, he had ranked sixth in the entrance exam for the Olympiad Mathematics team, which was why Albert had made him compete with her for the spot. Madelyn felt uneasy as she saw the result.
Back in the classroom, Madelyn noticed her phone light up in her drawer. She unlocked her phone and saw dozens of messages from Ethan. Madelyn had not been checking her phone much these days, but to her surprise, Ethan had been messaging her even more frequently. She did not dare to try and read every message he sent
