Chapter 366
Rachel's classmate had nothing but disdain for Yolanda. And because she spoke so loudly, the people around
them started pointing at Yolanda and gossiping about her.
"Isn't First Academy known for its outstanding students?"
"How could they have taken in someone like her?"
"Haven't you heard? She got in through connections..."
"She must have a strong background. After all, First Academy is the best school in Riverdale City. Ordinary rich
kids couldn't get in even with connections."

"But look at her plain outfit. She doesn't look like she has any backing."
"How strange. It seems anyone can get into First Academy these days. This is terrible!"
As Gavin listened to those harsh comments, his entire body radiated cold hostility. However, he didn't speak up.
He recognized that the drawing on display was Yolanda's work at first glance. Yolanda was probably going to
personally expose Rachel in front of everyone, so he refrained from intervening.
"You'd better leave, Yolanda. | think you should stay around," Rachel advised.
She had been feeling tense. But upon seeing that the crowd was criticizing Yolanda, she finally felt a bit more at
ease. She didn't want any unnecessary complications, so she tried to get Yolanda to leave as quickly as possible.
Rachel had heard that Simon was coming to view the exhibition today. If Yolanda started spouting nonsense
when he arrived, it would be utterly embarrassing for her.
"Exactly!" Rachel's classmate, who had spoken up for her earlier, sneered and rolled her eyes at Yolanda.
She went on a tirade, "Someone as uncultured and incapable of appreciating art as you should get lost
immediately! If Mr. Carter arrives and sees someone like you, he might assthat our academy is full of such
people. That would ruin our school's reputation!"
Yolanda raised her eyebrows slightly upon hearing the n"Mr. Carter". A faint smile played on her lips. It
seemed that she wouldn't even need to expose Rachel herself this time.
Thus, Yolanda remained standing where she was and didn't budge an inch. Rachel started to grow anxious when
she realized that Yolanda wasn't leaving. Even if Yolanda had no evidence, Rachel's image would still be
tarnished if she ran her mouth in front of Simon.
"Yolanda, the art gallery is so big. Why do you have to stand in front of my exhibits?" Rachel asked, trying to get
her to leave.
"I think this drawing is well done. Can't | stay a bit longer to admire it?" Yolanda responded calmly, smiling
slightly. Then, she added meaningfully, "Are you feeling uneasy about my presence and don't wanthere?"
Rachel snapped angrily, "What nonsense! Why would | feel uneasy? | just don't want you to embarrass yourself
here. Simon is the most famous traditional painter in Havaria. You know nothing about art. So, stop pretending
that you're admiring the artwork here.
"You're only lowering the artistic standards of First Academy's students by being here!"
Rachel had stolen Yolanda's drawing and claimed it as her own, so of course, she felt uneasy. The calmer Yolanda
appeared, the more flustered she became. Hence, she tried speaking harsh words to drive Yolanda away.
Unfortunately for her, Yolanda knew what exactly she was up to. Therefore, no matter what Rachel said, she
remained unfazed and stood her ground firmly.
"Why is that girl still standing there? How odd..."
"Who knows? Maybe she heard Simon was coming and wants to stick around to see him."
