Chapter 25 The Talkative Teacher 

Milly took a few steps back as she pretended to be afraid. She stood behind Alex and pleaded, “Mr. Ferrell, look. Ms. Hills is still threatening me. Boo hoo, she’s intimidating. How dare she do this in your presence. She’ll beat me to death if I’m left alone. How can I focus on studying for the exams?” 

I know how to act pitifully too. 

Witnessing his student in distress, Alex reprimanded Anna, “Ms. Hills, as a teacher, how can you intimidate a student in public like this? Listen to me. Switch with Mr. Lane from Class B for the time being. You will temporarily take over Class B, and we will address your situation in detail after the college entrance examination.” 

Turning to Milly with a gentle expression, he reassured her. “Don’t be afraid, Milly. Just come to me if you feel that you’re being mistreated. I will seek justice for you, alright?” 

It was challenging being a principal. He had to console the students while also considering the school’s overall college admission rate. 

Milly nodded in agreement since she had achived what she wanted. “Okay, Mr. Ferrell.” 

She aimed to remove Anna from Class A. She didn’t like her, and who knows what schemes she might devise in the future. 

She wasn’t afraid of her. She just didn’t want to waste time on trivial matters when the college entrance exam was approaching. 

Upon hearing Alex’s words, Anna had to suppress her emotions no matter how enraged she was. 

“Yes, Mr. Ferrell.” 

Fortunately, she hadn’t been fired yet. The fact that Alex allowed her to stay indicated that she still had a chance. She would reclaim what was rightfully hers if she behaved well during this period. 

As for Milly 

Anna would have numerous ways to force her out of school before the college entrance exam! 

Anna looked at Milly with malice and resentment while Milly simply rolled her eyes nonchalantly. Since she could prevent her from teaching in Class A, she also could stop her. 

Alex wiped the sweat from his forehead and finally resolved the situation. 

“Alright, now that everything is settled, let’s return to class. Don’t linger here. 

Milly suddenly exclaimed while looking towards the corner, “Wait, Mr. Ferrell, there’s one more issue that requires you to do justice.” 

Mr. Ferrell, who was about to depart, stopped in his tracks. “What is it?” 

This type of student was commendable in a way but always seemed to make enemies everywhere. 

Milly smiled, “Earlier, Melanie and Stephanie from Class D said that if I could score 700 points, they would bow and apologise in front of the entire school. Now that I have achieved that, I wonder if they will

Melanie and Stephanie, who were attempting to sneak away from the corner, were taken aback. Alex frowned. “Is that so? You two, come out and apologise to Milly.” 

Stephanie glared at Melanie angrily. 

Melanie had involved her in this situation. Now, they had to suffer humiliation together. 

Melanie hadn’t expected this to happen. Not only did Milly score 700 points, but she was also the first in their grade. 

With numerous teachers and students watching, they had no choice but to come out and apologise despite their reluctance. 

“We’re sorry, Milly. We shouldn’t have…. 

“Stop!” Milly abruptly raised her hand to stop them. Her eyes glinting behind her glasses. “Since you promised to apologise in front of the entire school, you shouldn’t apologise to me here. Isn’t there a swearing–in ceremony next week? You guys should apologise beneath the national flag. What do you think, Mr. Ferrell?” 

Alex could not refuse. 

He had relocated Ms. Hills to please Milly earlier on. It was just a small matter for him now, “Alright, let the discipline teacher make arrangements.” 

Milly smiled when she saw Stephanie and Melanie’s resentful gazes. 

They had to finish what they started. 

After everyone left, the sole beneficiary of the entire incident, Sunny, now the class teacher of Class A, approached Milly. 

“See, Milly. We are fated to be in the same class. Who would have thought that because of your words, I could move from class B to class A in one go instead of struggling for ten years? You are my saviour!” This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

Milly frowned as she found Sunny to be annoying! 

Sunny felt hurt when Milly ignored him. “Have you forgotten about me, Milly? I supervised your exams. Do you remember my name?” 

Milly was annoyed by his chatter. “No.” 

Why is this teacher so talkative? 

Sunny acted pitifully. “How could you forget me? I was the first teacher you met when you entered. Crestwood High. But I forgive you. Let me remind you again that my name is Sunny Lane. It’s easy to remember. Have you heard the song that was written just for me?” 

Milly was intrigued, “A song written just for you?” 

Seeing the confusion in her eyes, Sunny explained enthusiastically. “Yes, that song ‘Sunny‘ by Boney M.” 

Milly was at a lost for words.

Suddenly, she felt that Anna wasn’t so bad after all. Even though she didn’t like her, at least she wasn’t as talkativel 

Meanwhile, at Tate Group, 

George sat in the CEO’s chair with a dark expression. 

Danny was trembling on the side. His mind was racing to recall the recent projects the company had been working on. There didn’t seem to be any significant crisis. Why was Mr. Tate emitting such a menacing aura? 

After a while, a deep voice was heard, “Go, gather all the public relations and technical staff. The meeting will start in 5 minutes in the conference room.” 

Danny did not dare to hesitate. “Yes. Mr. Tate!” 

On the way to the conference room, the public relations and technical department managers surrounded Danny. They were puzzled. “Mr. Jarvis, what’s wrong? Did something happen in the company? Why the urgent meeting?” 

Danny continued walking without pausing. “I’m not entirely sure myself, but it could be a serious matter judging by Mr. Tate’s expression. You all must be on alert. This is the first time I’ve seen Mr. Tate with that kind of expression, so I guess it’s quite a serious situation.”
