Chapter 394 The Wife Behaves Strangely Around Us

• Ms. Emerson saw Nicole as soon as she entered the classroom. “Welcome back, Nicole,” she said gently. Nicole smiled and said, “Thank you, Ms. Emerson.” The two had a tacit understanding; Ms. Emerson was unspeakably grateful for Nicole; had Nicole not chosen her as the head teacher, she would probably not have been awarded the excellent teacher award. She knew she had gone too far at first and almost passed up as an outstanding student. She now told herself that she would treat Nicole doubly well from now on. No one dared to mess with Nicole again when everyone saw that Ms. Emerson had such high regard for Nicole.
• As much as Vivian hated Nicole, she had to keep her displeasure to herself because of the presence of Ms. Emerson. The morning class had begun. At lunch break, Nicole decided to go to the cafeteria. She knew she would attract attention, but she still had to go because Austin and others would look for her. Sure enough, as soon as Nicole and Lulu sat down, Austin and others swaggered into the cafeteria and came in front of Nicole. “Welcome back, boss!” “We missed you so much.” Nicole rolled her eyes at them. “You all are in the top twenty in the grade. Don’t call Boss again, as if we’re gangsters or something.
• It doesn’t befit the image of top students.” What Nicole said struck them dumb for a moment. “You’re right, boss. We are already top students.” “Exactly. Our demeanor should befit that of our identity.” Sammey quickly echoed. “Then what should we call you from now on, boss?” They got a little confused. “Just call me by name,” Nicole said. “Huh?” ‘Isn’t that disrespectful?’ “What?” Nicole shot him a lock. Austin immediately obliged and said, “Yes, Nicole.” He did not feel he deserved to call her by name, but he still obliged, and the others followed suit.
