Chapter 11

The monthly exam results were in, and Class One has left the other eight classes in the dust

As the head teacher of Class One, Jocelyn couldn’t hide the pride on her face

Wrench, the head teacher of Class Two, walked into the office and couldn’t help but express his envy, ‘Ah, Jocelyn, can’t you give us a break? You’re making us look bad here!!

Jocelyn chuckled, “Wrench, aren’t you the math teacher for our class? Math’s top scorer in the grade That doesn’t make

you happy?

“Hah, that’s even more irritating. We’ve got the same teacher for Class two, so why such a huge gap? Wrench was rubbing his temples in frustration.

The other teachers laughed too

Jocelyn had promised her students that if they ranked first in the grade, she would apply to pick up Willow from the airport, so with the score sheet in hand, she headed to the principal’s office

Half an hour later, Jocelyn emerged from the principal’s office with a smile.

She walked towards the Class One, where Preston happened to be standing.

“You actually applied? Preston frowned.

Jocelyn queried. “Is there a problem?”

Preston took a deep breath, “You’ll regret it, and then he went back to the classroom

Jocelyn puzzled. What was there to regret?

Since Willow had been a student here before, the leadership decided to invite her to the school to cheer up the

students

This news was even more exciting than the prospect of picking her up from the airport.

In doing so, Jocelyn fulfilled her promise.

After the last class, Jocelyn approached Preston’s desk, “I’ll treat you to a late-night snack.”

Preston glanced at her, “Instant pasta?”

Jocelyn felt like smacking the kid but held back.
