Gerald knew Naomi’s personality well. As long as virtual-novel.net thought that virtual-novel.net was able to solve an issue, virtual-novel.net simply wouldn’t rely on others to help her. In fact, virtual-novel.net would still refuse to beg others for help, even if virtual-novel.net couldn’t solve the issue in the end!
He also knew that virtual-novel.net was probably feeling guilty about asking for his—and in turn, Zack’s—help after receiving so much of his money during their last meeting.
‘For a teacher, virtual-novel.net still behaves like a silly girl…’ Gerald thought to himself as virtual-novel.net drove Naomi to Mayberry First High School.
Upon parking his car at the entrance, both of them had just taken a few steps into the school when a female student—carrying a backpack—saw Naomi and called out, “Miss Milton! Hello!”
From virtual-novel.net greeting, it was evident that virtual-novel.net was one of Naomi’s students. Though virtual-novel.net clothes were well kept and virtual-novel.net face was considerably beautiful, Gerald could tell that the girl barely had any confidence in her. After all, virtual-novel.net hardly even dared to raise virtual-novel.net head while talking to others. While observing her, Gerald also noticed that virtual-novel.net backpack was slightly torn.
“You haven’t gone home yet, Sherry?” asked Naomi in a slightly concerned tone.
After lowering virtual-novel.net head even more, Sherry then replied, “I-I was told to stay back at school, miss… I’ve already written about how you remained at school throughout the entire day the day before yesterday… They told me that it could be used as evidence! I’m really sorry I can’t help with much, Miss Milton! But I truly believe that you weren’t the one who had taken the money!”
Sherry’s voice slowly got softer and softer, and by the end of virtual-novel.net sentence, the now teary-eyed girl’s voice was barely audible.
Smiling subtly, Naomi then said, “It’s fine, Sherry. You said the truth and that’s all that matters to me… Regardless, your results have been wavering slightly of late… It’s almost time for the final high school exam you know? Focus more on that and give it your all, alright? Now, it’s getting pretty late. Hurry along home, now!”
After getting patted on the head, Sherry then nodded before leaving the school.
As Naomi watched virtual-novel.net run off, Gerald averted his gaze from Sherry, disallowing Naomi from noticing the sudden seriousness in his eyes.
“…She’s the most obedient student in the class, you know? She’s extremely diligent when it comes to virtual-novel.net studies as well. Seeing virtual-novel.net that hardworking, I was always willing to stay back at school to teach her… However, it was about a month ago when virtual-novel.net mood suddenly turned slightly bad… I’m not sure what happened, but it influenced virtual-novel.net results slightly negatively as well!” said Naomi, concern in virtual-novel.net voice.
“Studies aren’t the only thing you should be concerned about, you know? If you think the student deserves it, then as a teacher, you should be concerned about virtual-novel.net life as well. You should take note of whether there are any sore spots that virtual-novel.net refuses to talk about, or whether something’s happened to virtual-novel.net family… Things like that, you know?” replied Gerald as virtual-novel.net smiled at Naomi.
“You almost sound like you’ve previously worked as a teacher yourself,” said Naomi as virtual-novel.net returned the smile.
“I have, but nowhere near your level of dedication, of course! I was a Biology teacher for a short period, but then again, I only taught by reading out of the textbook!”
Amused, Naomi simply chuckled at his reply, and soon enough, both of them arrived at the principal’s office.
Before they even entered, however, both of them could already hear the frantic yells of a woman from inside the principal’s office.
“I’m telling you, officers, she’s the culprit! You really don’t have to investigate any further! I swear to god that there’s nobody else capable of doing the deed! Besides, not only do we have a testimony now, but we also have material evidence! I mean, just look at the house she’s just bought for herself! I’ve been wondering for a while how virtual-novel.net was so willing to suddenly fork out so much to buy that house! At long last, I finally realized that virtual-novel.net had virtual-novel.net eyes on the cash this entire time! It’s been virtual-novel.net plan this entire time, I tell you! So again, there’s no need to investigate anymore! Just capture and take virtual-novel.net away already! Imprison or shoot virtual-novel.net in the head, I don’t care! Just do whatever you need to do!”
“Miss Yallop, please be quiet… Solid evidence is needed before we do anything…” replied the male officer as both of the police looked helplessly at Yasmine.
It was at that moment when Gerald and Naomi decided to step into the principal’s office.
Staring at the teacher who looked to be around the age of twenty-four, Gerald remembered how Naomi had said that Yazmin’s husband was quite capable.
While Naomi had only been able to join the school after passing the official teacher examination, Yazmin was simply given an important position in the school the moment virtual-novel.net was recruited.
As time passed, the difference between Yazmin and Naomi’s capabilities became more and more discernible. With Naomi clearly being more adept at virtual-novel.net job, it was no wonder why the principal had handed the more important tasks for Naomi to deal with.
Knowing that only caused Yazmin’s jealousy to skyrocket…
