Chapter 61

ysander was seething with anger, his face darkened as he snapped, “Can’t you guys just >ack off? Ms. Vivienne got her double PhD from Elite University at 16. I had to move heaven. and earth just to get her here. What more do you want? Do you think just anyone can get her o teach? If not for my personal connection with her, she wouldn’t be here at all. Your kids. Jet to call her teacher, isn’t that an honor?”

ysander thought his words would calm these parents down. Instead, they were incredulous. and even sarcastic.

A sixteen-year-old with a double PhD from Elite University? Lysander, how much did Vivienne >ay you? You’re even willing to toss aside basic decency. Who is Vivienne? Everyone in the city’s high society knows that.”

Yeah, right. She left the Hawthorn family with her mother from the sticks when she was nine and has been at the Emerald Monastery ever since. She hasn’t left the mountain in ten years. Where did she go to school? Did she self-study? Are you saying she’s a genius? That’s

hilarious.”

“Absolutely! The Hawthorn family did take Vivienne back, but even Beatrice refused to acknowledge her. If she’s really that exceptional, why hasn’t Beatrice held a recognition banquet?”

“You guys!” Lysander was livid. He wanted to defend Vivienne, but she hadn’t brought her diploma when she was hired.

Actually, Vivienne brought it, but Lysander didn’t ask.

Vivienne was hired to teach Class Eighteen and wasn’t expected to lecture. There was no need for her diploma. Plus, he knew about her degrees, so he thought it wasn’t necessary.

He didn’t expect these parents to question it, and he was at a loss for words.

Lysander was furious, so he pulled out his phone to call Vivienne. He wanted her to bring her PhD certificate and slap it in these people’s faces to prove she didn’t get in through the

backdoor.

Just as the call connected, a ringtone sounded from outside the office.

Vivienne outside the office was taken aback that Lysander would call her at this moment. It was a bit awkward.

She hung up and walked into the office.

“Lysander.”
