" Dumb ?! " said Emily surprised .
" Yes ! The royal academy " Golden knowledge " , it's been my dream to study there before I entered high school but I didn't have the right financial situation to go there . " said Kiara with a sad smile .
Emily looked at her for a second .
" If your family has financial problems then how are you able to attend this school ? It's not the royal academy but still is an expensive school . " said Emily .
" It's all thanks to the fact that I won a scholarship . " said Klara with a smile .
" Your intelligent , nice ." said Emily with an encouraging smile .
" Anyway I worked really hard to achieve excellent grades . While facing all those difficulties on the way I learned that I had other talents . To tell you the truth I wasn't sure if I was to...., to study there but because of a family problem I was forced to give up . " said Kiara with a forced smile .
" You were chosen for a full scholarship ?! For high school ?! " said Emily surprised .
Emily's look was shocked . She knew very well that it was practically impossible for simple people with no financial support . Also for scholarship students the requirements of being chosen were hard . Only a few people who turned out to be genius were chosen as scholarship students . Not to mention that the high school program was tighter than the university program .
" I didn't say that I won . I passed the two rounds but I wasn't able to make it in the third and final round so I was disqualified ." said Kiara .
" Cause of the family problems ? " asked Emily .
" Yes ! " said Kiara and a bitter memory suddenly came to mind . Kiara became sad just from remembering the past .
" How did your family begin to have financial trouble ? " asked Emily . Kiara smiled in a forced way and looked at her .
" It's been three years since my dad lost his job and from that moment awards, I didn't lead a peaceful life . I became adjusted to the "new" world surrounding me . " said Kiara .
"Why did your father lost his position in the family ? What work did he do ? " asked Emily with a curious expression .
Emily was unable to stay calm . She wanted to know the reason why she refused the scholarship . Emily started to ask even more questions . Kiara began to understand that she was trying to know more than allowed .
" You know Emily, you are a nice girl. I can tell that but I just met you and seriously don't expect me to answer those questions . They are a little too private don't you think ?! " said Kiara with a smile .
Kiara's pure brown and naive eyes were piercing their serious sight in Emily's eyes . Emily thought that she was cool and scary at the same time . She began to understand that she couldn't get any information from her instead she would only gain her anger . Emily decided to leave this topic to the detective of her family.
" I'm sorry for being impolite Kiara . I won't mention it anymore . " said Emily with a sorry expression .
" Good ! It seems that there aren't so many people at the board so I am going to check the class we are in . Will you come ? " asked Kiara .
" You go ahead first cause I have to make a phone call . " said Emily and took her phone out .
" What about the class where you are in ? " said Kiara .
" Don't worry. I will see it myself but I have to make this call even if it would take a while cause my mom talks too much ." said Emily with a neutral expression .
"Hahaha ! Same as mine ." said Kiara .
Both girls laughed then Kiara left . Emily called one of her workers .
" Hello , my lady ! With what can I help you with ? " asked the worker .
" I want you to take a look at the archives of scholarship participants . Among the ones who failed check the student name Kiara . " said Emily in an ordering tone .
" And her surname my lady ? " asked the worker .
" I forgot it . Anyway if more than one Kiara show up send me a photo and I will tell you who's the one you need to get more detailed information about . " said Emily .
" Yes my lady ! " said the worker in a polite tone .
