Love or Die CEO’s Daily Dose of Swoon

Chapter 218

Mr. Jensen hesitated for a moment upon hearing the words.

Just then, Mr. Waldron walked in, his smile breaking the tension. "Hey, students will be students, right? All around the teenage years, full of rebellion. We're the teachers; should we really be sweating the small stuff? Lucille, I saw Cordelia earlier, and it looked like she realized her mistake. Let's just let this one slide, huh?"

Lucille's face darkened instantly.

The head of the department spoke up, "Waldron, good timing. What's your take on this Cordelia matter?"

Without hesitation, Waldron said, "Just a young girl, petite and pretty, a brilliant student on top of that. I've heard her family is quite well-off, not far off from the Keens really. A bit of pride comes with the territory."

The mention of not being far off from the Keens was a clear hint to Lucille not to overdo it, signaling that Cordelia wasn't without her own resources.

Lucille frowned at that.

The head chuckled, "Sounds like you have a pretty good impression of her!"

Waldron laughed, "Well, the Autumn Gold Academic Bootcamp hasn't seen a gold medal in years, right? I was kinda hoping she and Keen would be our ticket this year. You should've seen her at the National League, her scores were off the charts! Plus, she went and proved Batra's Conjecture - shows she's got a broad knowledge in mathematics."

The head started to waver.

Just as he was about to speak, Lucille snorted coldly, "So, we're supposed to pamper someone like that, even if they disrespect a teacher? We're here to teach them how to be decent humans, not just academics. If she can't even respect her teachers, what hope does she have of doing us proud one day?"

The head frowned.

Everyone in the room was a teacher; they understood Mr. Sullivan's duty wasn't just about imparting knowledge. Over the years, countless students had come through Autumn Gold Academic Bootcamp, and not one had dared to backtalk a teacher like this.

Lucille wasn't just any teacher; being part of the team meant she had her merits.
