The Million-Dollar Heart

Chapter 70

For the next two days, the progress of Class Eighteen visibly shot up, and the students were buzzing with enthusiasm.

Even the ones who used to hate going to class were now so engrossed in studying that they

didn’t want to rest when the bell rang.

Mr. James was over the moon after seeing this. Taking over Class Eighteen had initially been a daunting task, but now he felt like he was on top of the world.

I mean, who wouldn’t be stoked to see students, who once couldn’t be bothered to study, now making leaps and bounds under his tutelage?

Meanwhile, Vivienne was also up to her eyeballs in work. She personally kept tabs on Class Eighteen’s progress. Although she wasn’t the one teaching, she had a ton of other stuff to deal with.

Particularly, she was tutoring Charlotte Redwood one-on-one.

Charlotte was lagging way behind the others, so Vivienne had to start from scratch with her.

But Charlotte was sharp as a tack. Once Vivienne taught her something, it stuck. Charlotte’s previous problem was simply a lack of supervision. If someone kept an eye on her, she’d ace any test.

On Friday, a school-wide assembly was held.

At the beginning of every semester, the school would hold a big meeting. This one was originally scheduled for Monday, but because Class Eighteen swapped homeroom teachers and got Mr. James, it was pushed back to Friday.

At the assembly, the principal and some top-notch teachers would give speeches.

Lysander Harper invited Vivienne to speak, but she turned him down.

Halfway through the assembly, some people in uniforms walked in. One of them said to Lysander, “Sorry to butt in. We’ve got a report that one of your teachers has forged a certificate. We need to take them in for questioning.”
