Chapter 583 Looks Are Everything
After saying that, Elise opened the door and went into the class. Looking at how Elise acted like
nothing happened, Martin felt the guilt that was pointed out by Kenneth and Leon instantly disappear..
Bad attitude will always display itself. She couldn’t even display the most basic level of respect. She’s
blatantly ignoring the existence of teachers!
So what if her grades as an arts student are good? With such bad behavior, the heavens will be sure to
close her opportunity on science subjects!
Seeing Elise’s silhouette, Martin was determined to not be softhearted against these bad apples. Other
than Elise, he decided that all students that went against his words would be chased out of the class
after the monthly exam.
These little devils will not disrupt my plan!
Just as Elise sat down, Martin then entered the classroom.
He had a gloomy expression, and his brown eyes were filled with anger.
As someone who was of mixed race, he was undoubtedly the top amongst the teachers in terms of
looks, but since the students in the elite class were all focused on learning, they weren’t too surprised
by that.
They only noticed that Martin had a dark expression. Obviously sensing that he was still angry about
something, nobody wanted to go and face him directly.
Coldly sweeping his gaze across the class, Martin did not say anything as he wrote both his English
and Chinese name on the blackboard using chalk.
Turning around, he then put his hands on the rostrum and said to everyone with a haughty attitude, “I’m
your new form teacher, and this is my name. You can call me by my Chinese name from now on, or
you can call me Mr. Kamp. If you have any problems, come straight to me.”
Up till here, he stopped for a while and composed himself before staring coldly at the students. “Now
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtthat everyone knows who I am, I’m going to have someone stand up and tell me what happened.
Whoever did such a cruel action to a female student, stand up and admit it.”
The whole class held their breaths and all looked away, pretending that the incident had nothing to do
with them.
Although they all said that only the bad students cared about honor, that same fact applied to the top
students too.
After waiting for a short while, Martin, who saw that nobody was willing to come forth, shook his head
and laughed. “Nice, very nice indeed. An adult and a top student of the university is now acting like a
coward. So, nobody wants to admit it, right? That’s fine. Then, the whole class will be marked with a
heavy demerit!”
“But why?! We’re innocent. You are being too unreasonable by doing this.”
Some students bravely protected their rights.
Although they would not betray their classmates, they also did not want their profiles to have a heavy
demerit for no reason at all. If they really took it to the top, the leaders of the institute would not agree
to their punishment as well.
After all, they were basically the faces of the university, and no sane punishment would be dished out
to the masses. So, what could a foreign teacher really do against them?
Once this was said, everyone started to form the same opinion.
“That’s right. We’re here to learn, not to be investigators. Plus, everyone was discussing homework just
now, so we didn’t even see anything. What do you want us to say?”
“He gave out a heavy demerit just like that. Do you even know what that means if a student’s profile
had that noted? Is our future so insignificant in your eyes?”
The students were all displaying their strong logic right then in the classroom to the fullest.
No matter which school it was, the top students all had special privileges. Also, the school board would
not let a teacher do such reckless things.
Not participating in the argument, Elise only discovered that a bright looking boy next to her was
holding onto the edge of the table with both his legs closed, looking as if he was about to stand up.
But before he could do that, another boy on his right had stood up without hesitation.
“It was me that did it. Just punish me if you want to. Don’t drag others into this.”
Martin’s attention was instantly attracted by the boy, and Elise could not help but look at him multiple
times.
That boy in question had sharp looking eyebrows and short hair with a pointed front, and he was one of
the few that had a naturally messy fringe. It was just that his stance and gaze gave off a feeling that he
was a bit unrestrained.
“Sheldon!” The boy who originally wanted to confess had a look of pain on his face.
The boy called Sheldon instead shot the other boy a look, hinting at the latter to keep quiet before
asking Martin calmly, “So, where should I go to register my offense?”
Shaking his head, Martin said frustratingly, “The administration. Before that, clean the entrance up!”
Kicking the chair away, Sheldon then began cleaning the entrance with a broom.
Just as he had finished, Sophie had also come back.
“Sir, can I come in?” Standing at the doorway, Sophie looked at her classmates innocently.
“Come in.” Martin nodded, thinking that it was about time that a student who actually cared about the
rules arrived.
After Sophie had seated down, Martin then looked at Sheldon, who was at the back of the class. “Now,
you should apologize to Miss Washington for your behavior and seek her forgiveness.”
Looking obviously impatient, Sheldon came to Sophie’s side. Clenching his teeth while rolling his eyes,
he simply said, “I’m sorry!”
On the way back, Sophie had been cursing the person who pranked her a thousand times, but upon
seeing Sheldon’s face, she suddenly thought that it actually wasn’t such a big deal.
A handsome face really is everything. With such looks, anything he does is within reason. Perhaps he
just wanted to joke a little and make us all know each other better.
Deep down, Sophie made excuses on Sheldon’s behalf. Wearing a kind smile, she then said good-
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmnaturedly, “It’s fine. I don’t blame you.”
Without even looking at her, Sheldon instead looked toward Martin and said, “Now can I go get
registered for my heavy demerit?”
Not really wanting to punish him, Martin changed his mind after seeing Sheldon being so defiant, as if
the boy was sure that he wouldn’t punish him. This was just a blatant challenge!
Martin now remembered that Sheldon was actually a student that the principal had forcefully enrolled in
the class. Excluding his poor grades, his profile was in an even more sorry state, with his previous
school records peppered with fights. Even at Tissote University he still acted the same.
A bottom tier student will always stay the same, causing chaos no matter where they went.
Martin had promised himself to not be softhearted.
“You can go and register after the test has ended. For now, go back to your seat and wait for the exam
to start!”
“Miss Washington, I would like to ask you to go get the test papers with me.”
“Sure, sir.” Obediently, Sophie stood up and followed Martin out.
Rolling his eyes, Sheldon then sat back down.
At that point, the boy who did not manage to confess just now then immediately went up to talk to him.
“Sheldon Keller, why did you take the blame for me? It was me who did it, so it should be me who owed
up to it. Do you still treat me as your friend?”
Waving his hand, Sheldon did not treat this incident as anything major. “It’s just some demerit. Stop
nagging me over it.”
“When did I nag you? I’m just—”
“Alright, alright. This has nothing to do with you. It’s just that I wanted to show off, alright? If I don’t blow
up the incident, how would they find an excuse to expel me? If the university doesn’t want me here
anymore, my dad and brother will finally permit me to go down the route of game development.”
“I don’t even know how to persuade you now. It’s not actually your fault, seeing how you didn’t profit
from all those previous investments you made.”
Hearing this, Sheldon shot daggers at him, and the boy immediately shut up.
