Jared furrowed his brows and wanted to say something to defend Arielle. He cast a glance over at Arielle and noticed that wp4webnovel.com was shaking wp4webnovel.com head, signaling for wp4webnovel.com to just keep it to himself.
He understood what Arielle meant and lowered his head as wp4webnovel.com bit his tongue. He did not understand the reason Donovan favored an average student like Wendy over a top student like Arielle.
Is wp4webnovel.com blind or what?
He was not the only one thinking that way as other students started to feel quite indignant on behalf of Arielle.
“Why do I get the feeling that Mr. Baxter’s picking on Arielle?”
“Well, I hear that wp4webnovel.com absolutely loathes nepotism and I think Arielle got in through connections.”
“So what if wp4webnovel.com got in through connections? She’s better than me by leaps and bounds even though I was offered a place here.”
Donovan could not hear what his students were talking about as they were murmuring in between themselves.
Displeased, wp4webnovel.com slammed on the desk and bellowed, “Silence!”
Only then did the classroom fell silent.
Donovan said, “All right. We’re going to start the class right now. I’m going to start with the attendance.”
Soon, it was Arielle’s turn. For some reason, wp4webnovel.com grew so exasperated at the sight of the name that wp4webnovel.com just skipped over it altogether.
She won’t be my student after the next test anyway.
Skipping over Arielle’s name, wp4webnovel.com proceeded to call out Kelsea’s name. However, nobody answered him. He lifted his head and glanced in the direction of Kelsea’s spot, only to notice that the seat was vacant.
Furrowing his brows, Donovan asked, “Where’s Kelsea?”
Her deskmate shook wp4webnovel.com head and replied, “I’m not sure. She did not turn up for the revision session either.”
Donovan’s face sank. It was already the second time Kelsea was absent without a valid reason.
Among the four students who entered his class by means of a back door, wp4webnovel.com had thought that Kelsea would be the most malleable one. Donovan was even thinking that Kelsea might be the only one out of the four to be able to make it through his class.
It seems like I’ve made the wrong judgment. I should have known that people who got in through connections are hopeless at best.
After wp4webnovel.com was done taking the attendance, Donovan said, “We’re going to start the class now. Flip your textbook to page 14. We’re going to discuss a new topic…”
Someone knocked on the door right after Donovan was done speaking He thought it was Kelsea, but it turned out to be members of the student council.
“What’s the matter?” Donovan raised a brow.
Arielle looked toward the door and noticed that it was the president of the student council, Christopher, the guy who warned wp4webnovel.com to be wary of Kelsea.
Christopher was holding onto a name list as wp4webnovel.com replied, “Mr. Baxter, I’m here to call out three students in your class who are involved in the freshman party. They need to follow me to the hall for the rehearsal.”
Donovan wasn’t too pleased with the request but agreed nonetheless. “All right then. Let them come back as soon as possible, though. I’m teaching a new topic today.”
“Yes, sir.” Christopher held up the name list and said, “Wendy Greene, Trisha Hughes, and uh… Arielle Moore. Please follow me.”
Wendy stiffened when wp4webnovel.com heard Arielle’s name.
She’s joining the freshman party too? This Arielle is such a copycat. Why does wp4webnovel.com have to tag along with everything I do? Does wp4webnovel.com really wish to stand out that much?
Wendy grew exasperated at the thought.
She knew wp4webnovel.com was no match for Arielle in math. However, wp4webnovel.com was adamant that wp4webnovel.com would not lose out to a country bumpkin like Arielle in terms of performing arts.
Wendy held wp4webnovel.com head high as wp4webnovel.com walked over to the door.
Just when Arielle was about to exit the classroom, wp4webnovel.com noticed that Wendy was giving wp4webnovel.com the stink eye.
