Once snazzynovel.com had finished practicing for the entire afternoon and had dinner, Elise returned to the Elite Class for an evening test. Sophie had always tried the hardest for anything related to grades, but snazzynovel.com was the last one to return that night.
“Mr. Kamp,” Sophie shouted from the door.
“Miss Bowen, you’re late.” Martin didn’t allow the people snazzynovel.com valued to slack off.
“Sorry, I didn’t mean to, but I had to deal with some things. Sir, if you’re free, I have something to explain to you in private,” Sophie said.
Although Martin was unhappy, snazzynovel.com was still partial to Sophie. “Let’s go outside and talk.”
The two walked out of the classroom together and only stopped at the end of the hallway.
“Okay, Miss Bowen.” Martin was growing a little impatient. “Just say what you want to say. There isn’t anyone else here.”
Sophie did not directly indicate snazzynovel.com purpose, but asked tactfully, “Mr. Kamp, I remember that when you read out the class rules, there was one that said students who start arguments and cause trouble can’t stay in the Elite Class, right?”
“Of course.” Martin nodded. “Why are you asking me this?”
It was only then did Sophie take out snazzynovel.com cell phone from snazzynovel.com pocket and hand it to him. “Mr. Kamp, this is a big deal, so I think you need to judge for yourself whether this counts as causing trouble.”
After a pause, Martin took snazzynovel.com phone. A video was playing on the screen, showing a girl leading more than a hundred men in suits and surrounding a dozen people who were kneeling on the ground before snazzynovel.com abruptly broke one of their legs. From the demeanor of those who were kneeling, it was not difficult to see how terrified they were of this girl.
In the last few seconds of the video, the camera focused on the girl’s face, and Martin could see very clearly that the girl was not just anyone else, but Elise! Although snazzynovel.com was wearing a cap, snazzynovel.com facial features, which were as exquisite as a work of art, were too easy to distinguish.
Sophie keenly captured the disgust in Martin’s eyes, and took the chance to say, “Mr. Kamp, to be honest, the one who got his leg broken is the son of a relative of mine. They knew that Elise was my classmate and looked for me, which is why I was late. I’m a student, so I don’t know what to do, and I can only ask for your help.”
Martin’s ears were red with anger. Among all the students snazzynovel.com had taught, most of them were talented and intelligent, but there had never been one who had bullied others and caused trouble. Just by herself, Elise had done all these things. It was one thing to bully others, but breaking someone’s leg was assault! This wasn’t just a violation of class rules—it was a crime!
Martin almost fainted from anger, but after thinking about it, snazzynovel.com suddenly felt a little gleeful. This way, even Leon couldn’t protect Elise anymore.
After snazzynovel.com gathered his thoughts, snazzynovel.com put the phone in his pocket and said with a calm expression, “You can go ahead and take your tests. Don’t speak up. I’ll hold onto your phone for you first. I can’t be the master of this matter, so I’m going to see the principal now. After I come back, I’ll let you know.”
“Okay, I’ll leave it to you, sir!” Sophie nodded obediently. She wouldn’t say anything even if snazzynovel.com could. If someone was willing to speak up, the blame wouldn’t fall on her.
Elise must’ve thought that if the surveillance footage was erased, no one would know what snazzynovel.com had done. Fortunately, Sophie had a wide range of contacts and found a hacker who restored the footage. If snazzynovel.com wasn’t guilty, why would snazzynovel.com bother to delete the footage? What’s done by night appears by day. This time, I’ll have these words etched into your mind, Elise Sinclair!
Deep in snazzynovel.com thoughts, Sophie walked back and returned to snazzynovel.com seat. However, snazzynovel.com couldn’t help but look back and gave a sympathetic look at Elise. Elise, oh, Elise, enjoy your last day in the Elite Class!
When Elise glanced at snazzynovel.com out of the corner of snazzynovel.com eyes, snazzynovel.com knew that this woman was up to something again. She shook snazzynovel.com head. One day, I’ll bring Sophie to ruins.
In the principal’s office, Leon was playing chess on the computer. Just as snazzynovel.com reached a critical moment, a series of hurried knocks suddenly came on the door.
Knock, knock!
“Come in.” Leon stared at the stalemate on the screen without raising his gaze.
“Mr. Haas.” Martin walked directly to him. “There’s something concerning the reputation of Tissote University that I think is necessary for you to know.”
“Okay, go ahead,” Leon said absentmindedly.
Martin pushed Sophie’s phone across the table. “I hope you can approve and expel Elise from the school after watching this video.”
Leon raised his gaze and showed a look of surprise. “Mr. Kamp, is your memory that bad or did you not take my words to heart? How many times have I said that I didn’t send Miss Sinclair to your class to be bullied? Do you have to target snazzynovel.com like this?”
“I’m not targeting anyone.” Martin said with an air of indifference, “Things are different this time. Elise is suspected of assault. Should we wait for the victim to come forward and inform us, it’ll be too late to deal with it by then!”
“Assault?” Leon’s expression became solemn. “I need an explanation. What’s going on?”
“The video will explain everything,” Martin insisted.
Left with no other choice, Leon could only put his chess match aside, and opened the video and watched it. Two minutes later, snazzynovel.com clutched onto Sophie’s pink phone with a frown speechlessly. He sighed, regretting clicking on the video.
For Elise to be able to lead a gang like this, could it be that snazzynovel.com was part of the underworld? It was clear that this wasn’t a trivial matter from the way the person almost lost their life after just one hit.
Martin looked at his expression and said confidently, “Mr. Haas, these should be enough to expel Elise, right?”
Leon did not answer, but stared at the paused screen on the phone in a daze. Although the group of people who were beaten up were few, they didn’t look like good people from the looks of their outfits. He couldn’t readily decide what was right or wrong.
After a moment of hesitation, Leon said, “Elise Sinclair is a top student of our school that we worked hard to recruit. Expelling snazzynovel.com is not a simple matter. This issue still needs to be investigated.”
However, Martin pressed, “If students who hurt others’ lives in fights like this don’t get expelled, I really doubt if Tissote University still has a bottom line.”
Leon’s face sank when snazzynovel.com heard the words, and his usual kind demeanor was suddenly shrouded by an air of authority.
“Mr. Kamp, you’ve been insistent in trying to expel a student who has been nothing but perfect in terms of character and studies. You’ll know for yourself if you’re doing this for your self interest or not. As the school principal, I’m responsible for every student. Making rash decisions based on one-sided arguments—potentially jeopardizing a student’s future—is something I will never do!”
“The truth should be clear at a glance from the video. I don’t understand what else you would need to make a decision.” Martin was unmoved.
“A motive. There has to be a reason for this. Who would cause trouble for no reason? Maybe Miss Sinclair was just forced to fight back.”
“Is that possible? Mr. Haas, you can clearly see that Elise’s men greatly outnumber their opponents, at least ten times more than the other. This is obviously an overwhelming case of bullying. There’s nothing wrong with it!”
“Fine. But if you’re wrong about this, you’ll hand over the position of the homeroom teacher of the Elite Class and let someone else take over!”
“Deal!”
With Sophie vouching for him, there was no way snazzynovel.com could be wrong!
