'What is going on? Were these people surprised to know who I am? Why are they laughing like that?' she wondered.
Based on Regina's foolishness alone, she would never understand the true reason.
After an entire day of classes, there were no further interactions between Nicole and Regina.
Initially, Regina was confident about becoming the class president, but after a few periods of lessons, she began to lose hope. The pace at the Royal Creek Institute was too fast, and Regina could not catch up at all. Soon, she began to grow curious as to how Nicole could be so calm and relaxed. After every lesson, Nicole would be reading reference books, prompting Regina to become furious. If she really wanted to become the class monitor, she had to better manage her own studies first.
During self-revision time, Regina was sweating buckets while studying. On the other hand, Nicole had already stood up, ready to walk out with Bradley, Gary and the rest quickly following suit.
Seeing that Nicole did not even bother with the self-revision period and had left with a group of boys, Regina raised her eyebrows, turned to the person in front of her, and asked, "Where did they go? Why aren't they doing their revision?"
The person sitting in front replied, "Don't you know? Nicole and the rest are participating in a computer competition. That is why they would go to the computer lab for training during self-revision periods."
Regina could not help herself from widening her eyes upon hearing that. "Computer competition? Her?"
To her, Nicole was nothing but a country bumpkin. At Great Oak, she was known as the girl who could only live with her grandmother that wore an old hat. How would she have known how to use computers? Yet, in spite of Regina's aspersions, Nicole had indeed joined a computer competition.
Regina gritted her teeth and spat, "If she can join, I can as well!"
The students sitting in front watched how overconfident Regina was, after which they burst out laughing.
'This kid is truly of a different breed.'
"Alright then, you may look for Ms. Emerson to register. The competition has not started yet. You might still be able to register," they said, eager to see how this village bumpkin would create a name for herself.
"Really? I'll head over now!" Regina stood up, left the classroom and headed straight to find Ms. Emerson and sign up for the contest.
Lulu and June, who had been quiet, clearly overheard Regina's conversation with those sitting in front, whereupon the former turned around and looked at Joyce, "This girl, is she right in the head?"
She actually thought of competing with Nicole on her computer skills? The entire school knew that Nicole was a computer genius!
"Interesting. Should we go to the computer lab and see if anything happens?" June wickedly asked.
All the other students became excited upon hearing that. "Sure, let's go and see..."
After a short discussion, everyone sneaked out of the classroom.
Concurrently, Regina had already registered herself with Ms. Emerson. Although Ms. Emerson found it weird that a newly transferred student would register for a computer competition, she remembered that Regina might be trying her best to gain approval from the students by making the whole class proud. Thus, she agreed to it.
After Regina had gotten the green light, she immediately discovered where the computer lab was at. Then, she pushed the door and entered.
Seeing that there were students who were still coming in, everyone was shocked.
When Bradley noticed that it was Regina, he could not help himself from raising his brows and mocking, "Why is that ignoramus here in the first place?"
