She gave Nicole a fierce glare and then turned her head around.
The monthly examination was about to be held, and no matter how much of an act Nicole puts up, she
will not be able to perform.
Vivian raised her head slightly with confidence as a smile appeared on her face.
At this moment, the class bell had already rung but Ms. Emerson did not walk in on time as usual, but
she only slowly entered the classroom after 15 minutes. She then opened up her teaching plan as she
said,” I‘m sorry, students, now let‘s turn to page...”
Nicole frowned as she heard Ms. Emerson‘s voice. She noticed earlier that Ms. Emerson‘s eyes were a
little red and wondered if she had cried earlier.
The look in her eyes gradually darkened.
After class, Nicole did not go to dinner with Lulu directly, but instead followed Ms. Emerson back to the
teacher‘s office.
She stood outside the door and gave a polite knock on the door. After getting the acknowledgement to
come in, she went into the room.
Seeing that it was her, Ms. Emerson was quite surprised. “Nicole, why are you here?”
Nicole responded softly, “I‘ve completed the two exercises, and wanted to ask if you still have anymore,
M s. Emerson.”
Ms. Emerson was quite taken aback. Any questions in these two exercises were enough to stump
everyone and Nicole was telling her that she had completed them?
Although she had no idea how Nicole did it, but Ms. Emerson did not ask too much. She instead took out
another exercise from her drawer and said to Nicole. “There are only three sets of Mr. Hancock‘s
questions. The last set is the most difficult. I originally wanted to save it for you until the final sprint, but
since you‘ve already completed those, then I‘ll give this to you now. So, prepare well for the exam.”
Nicole looked at her and suddenly asked, “Ms. Emerson, when is the excellent teacher evaluation?”
Ms. Emerson did not understand why she was asking that, but she still responded, “It should be some
time after the monthly examination results are released. What‘s the matter?”
Nicole looked at her thoughtfully but did not say much as she went, “Nothing. I‘ll take my leave first then,
Ms. Emerson.”
Ms. Emerson nodded before saying, “Nicole, do your best. If you have any questions, you can ask Gary,
his Math Olympiad level is very high, or if you know Norah, who is the top of the grade, you can ask her
as well. Although she is not participating in the Math Olympiad this time, but her level is not bad too, and
should have more time to teach you.” 1
Nicole raised her eyebrows when she heard that, but she did not say anything else as she left with the
exercise questions.
Ms. Emerson, who was in the office, looked at Nicole‘s tall and slender frame. She then recalled the
threat by Mr. Kennedy this morning. He said that Nicole not only got zero in the Math Olympiad, but she
also even bullied his student, and that she is a troublemaker and has no respect for her elders. He also
said that the director is on leave today and he will inform her of everything once she comes back
tomorrow.
In the end he looked at her mockingly as he said, “You have nothing, so what are you doing here in
Royal Creek Institute? Do you think you can get by just teaching well? Even when I‘m no match for you, I
still get to lead the best class, the best students, and take the most awards. What right do you have to
fight me?”
When she thought of Mr. Kennedy‘s words, Ms. Emerson closed her eyes.
She believed that Nicole would not have struck without reason, and now that it was almost exam time,
she should not let this affect her. At the very most she‘ll just get criticized by the director and be made to
swallow that bitter pill. It was not like Mr. Kennedy had not been pulling these sorts of stunts since she
joined. There‘s nothing to be upset of,‘ she thought.
When Ms. Emerson thought of this, her eyes became more and more determined.
‘She‘s not that scary.‘
As Nicole did not have class in the afternoon, she just went to the cafeteria for lunch, and as expected
she encountered another torrent of curses and personal attacks.
Nicole paused and started to serious ponder if she should deal with Snow this time around.
Although she did not care what others were saying about her, but all these blathering were affecting her
daily life, and was getting a little annoying.
As she pondered about it, Nicole had just collected her food and found a seat, and someone immediately
sat opposite her.
Nicole looked up, and this person with a sorrowful face, but with a forgiving look was none other than
Snow!
Snow and Nicole sat together and that piqued the interest of everyone around them.
“Look, Snow is finally confronting that third wheel!”
“Serve that succubus right, someone should‘ve dealt with her a long time ago!”
“I know right, just look how thin Snow has gotten. Nicole must‘ve pissed her off so much she lost her
appetite!”
When Norah saw this from afar, she was laughing in secret.
She was the one who gave Snow all these ideas, so that everyone’s sympathy will be moved onto Snow
and turn the public against Nicole!
When she thought of that, Norah rather looked forward for the two to quickly exchange blows.
At this moment, Snow, who was sitting with Nicole, was taking in all the gossips around them. What
Norah said was indeed effective. If she could garner sympathy, then everyone around her will attack
Nicole!
She quickly suppressed the smile on her face as she looked at Nicole who was staring coldly at her with
arms crossed and said, “Nicole, don‘t you owe me an explanation? I’ve taken you as a good friend and
you do this to me? Don‘t you feel sorry for me?”
