Chapter 350: 324: If Chu Family Tries to Kill Me

They only considered going back down when there were twenty minutes left before class started.

But just as they went down less than five steps, they heard arguments coming from the ground floor.

Few people ever came to the rooftop.

Even the ground floor was already considered a relatively secluded area.

People tended to gather and hang out on the ground floor, but not many ever went up to the rooftop.

Hearing the voices, both of them stopped in their tracks and stood still.

Daisy recognized one of the voices as Skyler Thomas, while the other was a woman she had never heard before.

Olivia Lane typed a few words on her cell phone and showed it to Daisy Zane: [Skyler Thomas and Class 8 homeroom teacher]

Daisy nodded, initially wanting to go back to the rooftop, but since Olivia remained still, she did not move either.

Downstairs, the voice of the Class 8 homeroom teacher was filled with resentment: “Skyler Thomas, did you do this on purpose? You drove away all six of our students from our class. What? Do you want to get them back?”

“They brought it upon themselves,” Skyler Thomas retorted.

“Is it because our class has good grades, and you’re envious, so you deliberately undermine our students?” said the Class 8 homeroom teacher, “The grade topper is in our class. What? Are you going to target our class’s top student next? You’ve taught a class of losers; is it because you don’t want other classes to do well?”

“Evan Silas, mind your language,” Skyler Thomas said, “Do you think this is something a teacher should say?”

“What did I say?” Evan Silas sneered, “You’re a good teacher, and you’re the only good teacher in the whole world. Then why can’t you even get an ‘Outstanding Teacher’ title by the age of forty? Don’t ever reflect on yourself?”

“Manage yourself, and I won’t need your meddling,” Skyler Thomas replied.

“Then don’t wave around in front of me,” said Evan Silas, “Class 16 is full of young ladies and young masters. Even the top few in class have to be searched from the back of the school rankings. As soon as I told the director I couldn’t handle a class like this, you took over immediately. What do you mean? Are you deliberately going against me? Can you handle something I can’t do?”

“Aren’t you overplaying your part?” Skyler Thomas said irritably, “Can’t anyone else take over a class you don’t want? You’re after fame and fortune; you pursue it. Why are you keeping an eye on a class you don’t want?”

“You make yourself sound so noble. Do you dare to say that you took over Class 16 without any personal interest?” Evan Silas raised his voice, but lowered it right away, afraid that someone would hear him, “You must have seen the power of these students’ parents. You defended Marsh Turner so forcefully yesterday; did you want to climb the Turner and Hobson Family ladder?”

Skyler Thomas could no longer bear it and blurted out, “Do you have some kind of problem?”

As if convinced of Skyler Thomas’s intentions, Evan Silas’s facial expression grew increasingly malicious, and there was even a hint of excitement.

This excitement seemed to suggest that he had discovered that this person was also after profit, and any pretense of nobility was false.

As if there was no real difference between them.

“What a pity. What can you do if you climb up them as a teacher? They will leave in a year and forget about you. Later, when they mention ‘Skyler Thomas,’ they won’t even know who it is,” Evan Silas said.

Laughing suddenly, Evan Silas continued, “And when their grades aren’t good, their parents will blame you. They’ll blame your incompetence. When their grades are good, it’s because of their children’s hard work. When they’re not, it’s because the teacher isn’t dedicated or qualified. They’ll only despise you. And since you don’t even have a title, they’ll despise you even more, calling you rubbish, unworthy of being a teacher.”

Skyler Thomas looked at her without saying a word.

Evan Silas went on: “What nobility are you pretending? No one will pay attention to you. Even if you climb up the Turner and Hobson Family, so what? ‘Outstanding Teacher’ is based on students’ grades, and no one can interfere. You still won’t be anything; you won’t be anything.”

Taking a deep breath, Skyler Thomas slowly exhaled, “Evan Silas, you’re too extreme. Grades aren’t the only measurement of everything.”

“But without grades, you’re nothing,” Evan Silas said, “This year’s College Entrance Exam’s top scholar will definitely be from our class. The ‘Outstanding Teacher’ award, bonus, and honor will all be mine. But you  you can only see off a batch of poor students. This is the price you pay for your false nobility. You’ll end up with nothing!”
