Chapter 128
The chemistry teacher, Walter Brown, nodded in agreement. “Yeah. I’ve graded a lot of them, and the highest grade I’ve given out was a 70”
The other teachers were shaking their heads and laughing bitterly as well. Their papers were more or less the same. Until now, they still hadn’t seen anyone get more than 70%.
Enid had already lost confidence in her students after marking their papers. However, she suddenly came across a shocking paper in her stack. As she went through it, she suddenly stood up, eyes wide
“Whose… whose paper is this?”
The papers were graded anonymously, so she couldn’t see the names on the papers.
Walter leaned over and took a peek. “Full marks? Is this Bobby Graham’s paper? He’s always been the best student in his grade.”
Enid shook her head. “This isn’t his handwriting ”
“That’s weird. Oh hey,” Walter interrupted himself suddenly. “Eve got a paper that got full marks too.”
At the same time, two of the language teachers also reported near–perfect scores from one of their respective papers. Math was the only exception
John finished marking all of his papers without seeing any perfect scores. He took off his reading glasses in disappointment.
“Math’s not an easy subject, it appears.”
Enid glanced over at his papers. “Just be glad that your average grades are still not too bad. You had quite a lot of As here. A perfect score wouldn’t go amiss”
John was slightly reassured by that. It was true that most students had done well in Math this time. In fact, all of them passed. It was the best result he’d seen ever since he took over the subject
After that, all the teachers gathered together to report the exam results. Nancy couldn’t wait to see who got the best result in her class. However, when she opened the papers, she
was shocked.
Lily Brooks? She was a bad student. How could she have gotten full marks? The other teachers began looking through the papers as well.
“Mr. Everton, Lily Brooks from your class got a perfect score for her Physics paper!!
“She got full marks for Chemistry tool”
“And for my subject!”
John was shocked. He quickly grabbed the exam reports and scanned them thoroughly. The other teachers were right it really was Lily. She hadn’t disappointed him.
However, he deflated almost immediately, Was Math really that hard? Why did Lily only scrape a pass in Math?
Nancy was furious when she heard that Lily had gotten perfect scores in almost every subject.
She slammed her hand on the table and roared, “Mr. Everton, look at what your student has done! She definitely cheated during the exam. You’ve ruled the school’s reputation!” “Ms. Hanson, watch your mouth!” John retorted angrily. “I will not stand for slander upon my student. I believe in her. She would never cheat in an exam.
Nancy scoffed. “We all know how she is. She’s always come last in every subject. How could she have gotten so good overnight? She must have cheated!”
“You” John’s face was red with anger, but he couldn’t find the words to refute her.
It was true that Lily’s performance in school had always been subpar
“We cannot allow this to happen. I’m going to talk to the Head of Student Affairs!”
Nancy wanted to go straight to the principal at first, but she remembered Joseph had sided with Lily before, so she went to Corvina instead
If she could prove that Lily had cheated, then they could hold a board meeting to discuss how to deal with her. Joseph wouldn’t dare to side with Lily then.
Meanwhile, when John opened the door to Class 15, he found the class uncharacteristically quiet.
Hechecked the schedule. They were in self–study now. Surprisingly, every student seemed to be studying on their own
Jolin smiled, gratified Ever since Lily transferred to Class 18, the entire class had changed. He glanced over at the student in question. She was scrolling on her phone.
Sighing, he said, “Lily, can you come with me?
Lily looked up. Without saying anything, she followed him out of the classroom NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.
