The Mocked Miss’s Hidden Crowns novel Chapter 690

In the medical lab at Cabinda University, the sharp screech of a chair cut through the quiet.

“Letty, the new list for the International Medical Competition just dropped.”

Letty barely glanced up from her experiment. She flashed a careless smile, not even pausing. “So what? Who’s on it this time?”

Honestly, it was always the same handful of people. Nothing to get worked up about. Their skills were all more or less on par, anyway. Letty had been grinding through her mentor’s practice cases for months. When the time came, she was sure she’d outshine the rest.

Carmelita clutched the list, her face pale. She stammered, “Letty… Charlotte’s name is on here.”

Letty froze, her hand still on the microscope slide. She spun around, eyes wide. “What did you say?”

Without waiting for an answer, she snatched the list from Carmelita and scanned it. At the very bottom, there it was—Charlotte.

“No way.” Letty stared at the page, reading it over and over. Her eyes narrowed, disbelief all over her face. “Everyone who gets into this competition is at the top of their field. How did a freshman like Charlotte even get invited?”

Was it because someone clueless had seen that video from the last competition? Still, it didn’t make sense.

She set the list aside, peeled off her gloves and mask, and pulled out her phone. She found a number and called. “Lydia, I need to ask you something…”

Whatever Lydia said made Letty’s expression turn even darker.

“The committee approved this?” Letty repeated the words in a daze, like everything she thought she knew was crumbling. Since when did Charlotte have connections to the committee?
