Ariana waited in the main office and after a while, a woman stepped in with a paper slip in her hands. She had a frown on her face.

This has never been done before. No one was allowed to take Miss Pen’s exam more than once, but the Adkins had paid their way through. They will never let their miss Pen know about this, she would be furious.

But come to think of it. What can she do? The Adkins were the most powerful and influential people in Owlsgrave. They could buy her and her silly company if they wanted.

Ariana stared at the written questions before her. She had no idea what they were about. She’s never written any exam related to her course before and had no idea what she was doing.

Ariana stared at the questions which looked so foreign to her. Her heart was pounding so wildly. She couldn’t let anyone know she was dumb and had no idea what she was doing.

She couldn’t let them know she’s a quack and might kill patients if employed in a hospital.

"What is wrong, Why haven’t you started yet. Your time is ticking." The woman in the room with her stared at the girl.

"Just shut up lady. I’m trying to write here." Ariana yelled attracting the attention of the people in the next room and they all stepped out.

"Is everything alright Ariana?" Abby asked with a frown.

"This woman here is distracting me. If I fail, it is your fault." She pointed at the woman. She would do anything to be out of this mess. Anything to show her family she wasn’t useless.

"But I only asked a question because she was not writing." The woman tried to explain.

"Lies!" Ari barked. "She kept telling me I would fail because I’m from a wealthy family. Do you even know who I am?" Ari yelled.

"What have you done Pauline? You’re looking down on the smartest student our school has ever produced." Shakedown said.

"This is unacceptable. Who do you think you are?" Greg barked.

"M... Mr Adkin, I’m so sorry for the disturbance." Shakedown tried to calm him but Greg was already too furious.

"No, I will not let this slide. This is unacceptable." He said staring at the girl.

"I will show you what it means coming from a wealthy family. I want her fired now!!" Greg yelled.

"I’m afraid you can’t fire me, Mr Adkins, I don’t work for you," Pauline said calmly, but her words only angered them more.

Abby moved forward and slapped her across the face. How dare this imbecile speak before them?

"How dare you!!?" She barked.

"But I haven’t said anything wrong. If your daughter claims she’s so smart, then let her write the project." She said.

"We’re already stressed making her write the project again. Right now I’m beginning to think she isn’t as smart as she claims." Pauline said. She refuses to be bullied. This was a serious matter, not some charity work for a wealthy man’s child.

She would have let everything slide, but Ariana lying on her was already enough.

Chris raised his hands to slap her, "Touch me and see if I’ll not send a direct message to Miss Pen to never accept her." She said.

"Are you threatening us?" Abby asked. Does this girl really think she’s anything special?

"Don’t try me. I can buy both you and your miss Pen if I want to." Abby said.

"Mother, I don’t think I can write the exam anymore. Can we not just pay Miss Pen to accept me?" Ariana rushed to her mother’s side, holding her sleeve as she pleaded innocently.

"Is that possible Mr Shakedown?" Abby turned to him. She would do anything to keep her family’s reputation. She will shut this nobody once and for all and make her lose her job once she offers whatever Miss Pen is a good sum of money.

"I... I don’t think..."

"Anything is possible Mr Shakedown. My daughter is already stressed enough from all of these. She cannot take the exam anymore." Abby said.

Shakedown was silent for a moment, then he said. "Please come into my office for further discussion."

As the Adkins stepped in, he turned to the girl standing there. "You better not breathe a word about this to anyone and save a spot for Ariana. You’re lucky I’m here to help you out, else you would have been in serious trouble right now." He said and walked away.

"Mr Adkins, we can come up with something. Since the results aren’t out yet, we can switch Miss Ariana’s result with someone else." He suggested.

"I need a good spot Mr Shakedown." Ariana chimed and the man nodded. He would try as much as he could to help them in any way he could.

Pauline stared at the family in the room. There’s only so much their money can do. She hopes her boss will not succumb to their demand and stand her ground to stand by her integrity no matter how much they offer.

Ariana can only pay to be among the students. But Pauline would make sure she’s never chosen.

Ariana smiled as Shakedown spoke of ways to fit her in. He wouldn’t guarantee her the top spot, but he could get her squeezed in, enough for Miss Pen to notice her.

Ariana was delighted, once again, she had escaped the hands of betrayal. As for Penny, she’ll make her pay for trying to embarrass her like this. She knew she had done this for one purpose to humiliate her.

She couldn’t wait to rub her victory on Penny’s face. She’ll make her see that she could win without her. Though, she knew she still needed her sister for her last project. That would really determine if she’d graduate as a doctor, or redo med school again from scratch.

She couldn’t do that. She’ll never allow that to happen.
