The Mocked Miss’s Hidden Crowns novel Chapter 63

Bald Lee’s apology to Charlotte was all over the school forum, the video shared and reshared until it felt like everyone had seen it. The moment Charlotte stepped onto campus, she was hit by a wave of stares. Some were full of awe, others just plain shocked, and she even caught a couple of guys trying to sneak photos of her when they thought she wasn’t looking.

She frowned a little but kept walking. As soon as she entered the classroom, the usual chaos faded into silence. Every single person in the room stared straight at her.

“Morning, Charlotte,” Parrish called out, tossing a carton of milk her way. “Here, this is for you.”

She barely glanced at it before tossing it right back. “Thanks, but I don’t like milk.”

Parrish looked confused, like he couldn’t believe what he’d just heard. Was he seeing things? He could have sworn he saw her drinking milk at her desk just yesterday.

Charlotte dropped her backpack into her cubby and noticed a test paper sitting on her desk.

Physics, from yesterday.

Her head had been pounding during the test. She’d planned to rest for a bit, but when she opened her eyes again, the class was already over. She hadn’t even finished half the questions. And now, looking at her score… a seven. Ouch.

“Congrats,” Andrew said from the next desk, grinning at her with his chin propped on his hand. “You just set a new record for the lowest score in Vanguard High School history.”

Charlotte frowned and glanced at his score.

Twenty-eight.

Honestly, not that much better.

She didn’t even bother to respond at first.

Andrew tried to sound encouraging. “Don’t feel too bad. According to Ms. Adams, we’re both full of potential. If we put in a little effort, our improvement is going to look amazing.”

Parrish almost lost it, trying to hold back a laugh. The guy who was second-to-last was comforting the one who came in dead last.

Charlotte gave a half-hearted laugh. “Wow, thanks. I feel so much better now.”
