Chapter 1546 That School Seems Fishy "The scholarship program, you say?' When Wynter heard Yvette's reply, her eyes flickered. Those who knew her well could sense that she had picked up on something, yet she was still missing sdetails.
Yvette failed to notice Wynter's gaze, believing that she was just as clueless. "I'm not sure how Kenton becthe Chamber of Commerce's chairman through the scholarship committee. That program seems more about boosting his reputation than his company's profit.

After facing losses, Kenton rallied the aristocratic families to persecute Yvette. Thanks to him, she could hardly live in peace. And so, she decisively disclosed all the details without further prodding from Wynter. "That's right, you might find something in that school," Yvette added, revealing any secret she had learned. At that point, all she wanted was for Kenton to fall. Better yet, she hoped to eliminate the entire Wray family through Wynter. Yvette continued, "Before becoming the chairman, Kenton attended the opening ceremony of a famous laboratory school in Hawford. He was also honored as the best entrepreneur.
"Since then, he's been portrayed as a benevolent philanthropist, which likely helped his bid for the chairman position." In truth, Wynter was already aware of the scholarship program. However, Abel's reports made no mention of the laboratory school.
While sscholarships were legitimate, they served as the Wray's hidden interests and their allies in other cases. In other words, something was amiss about that laboratory school.

The teacher turned back and stated, "Ms. Linden, Mr. Valencia would like to see you." Hearing that, the students turned their eyes toward Eliana. A few boys huddled together and whispered among themselves.
"Why would Mr. Valencia want to see her? Do you think it's for "that' reason?' The last sentence sent the boys into a fit of laughter.
Eliana silently gathered her belongings and made her way to the principal's office.

Noticing her arrival, Gideon put down his cup and gestured for her to take a seat. 'Ms. Linden, I understand that 30 students from your class have applied for the scholarship. Unfortunately, it's limited to five recipients. I've called you in to discuss this. Do you truly need this money?"
Eliana quickly replied, "This scholarship means a lot to me, Mr. Valencia. I live with my grandparents, who wake up early every day to sell groceries in the market just to support me.
