Chapter 52

When she got to Class Eighteen, she had the principal print out all subject test papers for her to pick up.

As soon as she walked out of the classroom, Charlotte chased after her, “Vivienne, wait up!”

Vivienne stopped in her tracks, turned to look at her, and said seriously, “You should call me Ms. Vivienne now.”

Charlotte’s mouth twitched, but she obediently said, “Ms. Vivienne.”

Vivienne nodded, patting her on the head, “Good girl!”

Charlotte was taken aback.

Curiosity piqued, she continued, “Come on, tell me, what’s the story? I’m totally gobsmacked, Ms. Vivienne, you’re incredible. You might not know, but no one in the entire school dares to mess with the students of Class Eighteen, but you’ve got them eating out of your hand. I’m. really impressed!”

Vivienne was momentarily at a loss for words.
