Phoebe Hoffman's lips turned down, and a flash of jealousy passed through her eyes as she disdainfully said, "Just a high school student! A girl, no less, boasting big but with little real talent, quite arrogant indeed."

Several people from The Ninth Institute who hadn't seen Nathalie Quinlan were stunned, not expecting her to speak this way.
Wallace Radcliff couldn't listen anymore and frowned at her, speaking sternly, "Mr. Hoffman, was there really a need to say that?"
What on earth was going through Phoebe Hoffman's mind?
That day in Amadeus's hospital room, when she had mentioned Ms. Quinlan, Amadeus didn't have an outburst then, but once back, he made her copy The Ninth Institute's rules a hundred times.
With The Ninth Institute's rules spanning two pages, a hundred times meant two hundred pages; Phoebe Hoffman had been copying this for the past few days.
