Too Late to Hold Me Back novel Chapter 1282

However, this was also an opportunity for Mira to showcase her abilities.

"Option A, 'resilience is absolute, while vulnerability is relative,' is incorrect.

According to the fourth paragraph of the text, the two are 'intertwined, even acting as two sides of the same coin,' meaning their relationship isn't simply absolute versus relative."

The entire classroom plunged into dead silence, everyone completely stunned.

The heavy rural accent and stuttering that Ms. Crowe had anticipated never materialized. Instead, Mira's answer was fluid, flawless, and indisputable.

The students were amazed not only by her articulate response but also by her reading speed.

The topic, "The Resilience and Vulnerability of Civilization," was a highly philosophical subject. The text was challenging to read and required students to carefully scrutinize key phrases.

While the rest of the class hadn't even finished reading the passage, Mira had already delivered a perfect answer in standard, unaccented English.

"Wow, we've got a genius in our midst."

"I thought she was going to be a complete newbie, but she's actually The Oracle!"

Mira's response not only thwarted those hoping to see her make a fool of herself but also earned her a wave of admiring glances. Even Evelyn Crowe couldn't find a single flaw in her logic.

After class, Elara Finn approached her first. Having heard that Mira was from a mountain village, she felt a sense of camaraderie with her.

"Hey, where are you from?"

"I'd rather keep the specifics a secret for now."

Mira was cautious, worried that someone might try to hold her foster parents hostage to threaten her.

"That's okay. We're both from poor mountainous areas, so let's be good friends. Seeing how brilliantly you answered that question, you must be amazing at studying.

Let's help each other out from now on, okay?"

Human connection was truly a fascinating thing. In her previous life, the two of them had been close friends. After Elara graduated with her master's degree, she had gone to work at Solflare National Bank, and their bond remained strong.

It seemed that in this life, Mira and Elara were destined to cross paths again.

What she didn't expect was for Celine Ward and Liora Bennett to walk over as well.

"You're incredible! My name is..."

Before she could finish, Mira chuckled. "Liora Bennett."
