Chapter 124
As the Royal Creek Institute’s high school department head, Ms. Thompson hated students who
misbehaved and did poor in study. ‘This Nicole has already given me a bad impression because she’s a
transfer student from the countryside. Not to mention now she is a troublemaker!’ Ms. Thompson snarled
silently.
Seeing Ms. Thompson’s manner, Nicole knew that Ms. Thompson was deliberately targeting her. She
spoke to Ms. Thompson nonchalantly, “Do whatever you want.”
Ms. Thompson was furious at Nicole, but on second thought, she realized that Nicole did not even refute
her. ‘Did she not care about the penalty she will face at all? It seems that giving her penalty is still too
light,’ she thought.
“Nicole, is this how you behave when talking to teachers? It seems that you are unfit to be a student in
an outstanding school like Royal Creek Institute student where teachers are respected. I will file for your
expulsion through the principal instead!”
The whole class was in an uproar. Nicole had only been transferred to Royal Creek Institute for less than
three weeks. If she really got expelled, she would be the transfer student who lasted for the shortest time
in the school’s history. It was something big enough to talk about the whole school year!
When Nicole saw Ms. Thompson’s spitefulness, her expression became even colder. She fished out her
phone and tapped the screen casually with her finger. “Hello, Ms. Thompson from high school
department said she was going to expel me,” she talked on the phone.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHer voice sounded very soft even though she was voicing her complaints assertively.
Ms. ‘Thompson looked at Nicole coldly, thinking that Nicole was acting like she had a backer.” Wake up.
Do you really think you have a connection that can overrule the Royal Creek Institute’s decision? Our
principal is Mr. Ellison!” Ms. Thompson sneered.
Nicole ignored Ms. Thompson. She answered a few questions asked by the person on the other side of
succinctly. When she told the person that Jessy had messed with her because of Harvey, she could
notice Ms. Thompson’s expression had changed.
Ms. Thompson stared at Nicole in disbelief. ‘She even dares to complain about Harvey Ellison?! Who is
the person on the other end of her phone?’
Nule’s nonchalanxe made Ms. Thompson feel uneasy.
When Mr Kennedy met Ms. Thompson, his narrative revolved around the bullying actions the students of
his class had suffered and how unruly Nicole was. On top of that, Mr. Kennedy often gave MS.
Thompson a lot of benefits, and she thought Nicole was just a student transfer from a rural area.
Therefore, shie did not give a second thought before standing up for Mr. Kenny
At this moment, Ms. Thompson got a little nervous, thinking that she might have messed with someone
she should not have offended.
‘But I’ve read her profile. It is clearly stated that she’s a girl living with her grandmother since the death of
her parents. I have no idea how she got in the Royal Creek Institute, though. Perhaps, she has used
some dirty tricks.’ At the thought of this, Ms. Thompson looked at Nicole’s pretty face with a flash of
disgust.
‘Pretty girls nowadays would do anything to achieve something!’
When this thought appeared in Ms. Thompson’s mind, a group of people suddenly came behind her.
After taking a closer look, she recognized they were the hooligans in her class.
“Austin, Sammey, why didn’t you attend your class? What are you doing here?” she sounded displeased.
Austin was not afraid of Ms. Thompson. When he heard that his homeroom teacher came to Class B of
the eleventh grade to find Nicole, he had rushed over immediately. Upon arrival, he heard Ms. Thompson
wanted to expel Nicole. $0 he got nervous as he said, “Ms. Thompson, Nicole would not have done it for
no reason. You should at least get the facts right before making a decision!”
The henchmen behind him also nodded. Ms. Thompson could see the anxiety and concern in their eyes.
Instead of getting pissed off, Ms. Thompson smirked at Austin. “Oh, I didn’t expect Nicole to exploit such
means at such a young age. She can even make you guys speak for her. Looks like she has a rather
promiscuous relation!”
Ms. Thompson had remained single despite being a middle-aged woman, and she had no suitors.
Hence, she disliked seeing many boys being protective over a pretty girl. She would assume the girl
must have seduced those boys.
Austin and his gang became furious upon her words. “Ms. Thompson, you’ve gone too far! Nicole has
been tutoring us in our study, so we are feeling grateful to her!”
If they told Ms. Thompson that Nicole was their boss, they afraid it would bring Nicole more troubles. So
they had only mentioned about the tutoring.
Unexpectedly, the whole Class B burst into laughter when they heard those words. ‘I can’t. believe that
Austin has the nerve to claim that Nicole is tutoring him. Nicole is a country bumpkin who has even
gotten zero marks recently. Austin’s grade, similarly, has always been at the bottom. I don’t know if they
are stupid or what to brazenly make such claim!’ they thought
Ms. Thompson mocked Austin, “Austin, can’t you look for a better excuse? Everyone in the school knows
Nicole’s grades are far from yours, yet you claimed that she had been tutoring you? Could you even fool
yourself with that excise?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWhen Austin’s henchmen saw that Ms. Thompson did not believe them, they all clenched
their fists and hurriedly said, ” Ms. Thompson, we’re telling the truth. Nicole is good at explaining topics.”
Ms. Thompson looked at Sammey. She had treated him well since his grades were not bad.” Sammey,
speak. You won’t lie to me, right?”
Sammey was a quiet student. But now he looked at Ms. Thompson and said, “Ms. Thompson, it’s true.
Nicole has been tutoring us, and we’ve learned a lot.”
Ms. Thompson contemplated for a second, seemingly trying to figure whether Sammey was
lying.
At this time Sammey’s sister – Vivian – who was sitting in the first row of Class B refuted his words.
“Sammey, you should not have spoken for Nicole because of personal feelings. Everyone knows about
Nicole’s poor grades. She has even scored zero marks for the Math Olympiad mock test! With that
competency level, there’s no way she can tutor other students.”
Sammey turned to look at Vivian in disbelief the moment he heard her.
Vivian did not look away. She believed that she was right about it. ‘It’s absurd to say that Nicole has been
tutoring Austin. It is just a lie to cover the fact that she has been fooling around with boys!’
Sure enough, Ms. Thompson’s expression became grim as soon as she heard Vivian’s words.
Vivian was one of the top five eleventh graders, and she was Sammey’s younger sister. To Ms.
Thompson, her words sounded more convincing. Hence, Ms. Thompson waved her hand at Austin and
his gang as if brushing off a fly and said, “You don’t need to say more. Like what Vivian has mentioned,
even an excellent teacher like me can’t save your grades. So, how can someone as poor as Nicole in
study tutor you?”|
While listening to Ms. Thompson boasting about hersełF, Sammey scoffed and muttered,” Nicole tutored
us better than you!”
