Chapter Three

Chloe's POV

I rushed to his aid, I couldn't bear seeing someone hurting let alone a teacher.

I helped him get up from the ground much to the disdain of others, including Mika, the scowl of her face told me that I will be lectured on “how to mind my business” again, but I didn't care.

I helped him to dust off his book that had been soiled with cheese, it wouldn't go off so I did the little I could.

“You should be ashamed of yourself, pranking your teacher on the first day of school, seriously? I expected better.” I yelled at them, everyone was dead silent.

“Come on sir, I'll take you to the men's bathroom so you can try to wash it off,” I said to him, he leaned on to me causing me to stagger a little.

“Can you walk?”

“No, I don't think so. It feels like my waist is broken or something, I can't even stand.”

“Don’t worry just lean on me, I’ll help you stand,”

Even though I knew that doing so would make me lots of enemies, enemies like Tyler Weston, the most feared and popular student in the school, right now I don’t care.

Tyler’s POV

“s**t! Who the heck does that nerd think she is? She had the effrontery to thwart my plans” I fumed.

I watched in anger as she left the class with the teacher.

“How could she do that?” Around me, I overheard someone whispering.

“She is obviously one of those goody-two-shoes, so I will be patiently awaiting Tyler's retaliation against her—it will be so much fun! One more laughed behind me.

“I don't see any other reason why a worthless nerd like her would want to get entangled in a web with Tyler, so I suppose she did it merely to become noticed," the first female added.

“That might be the case, but in any case, I'm just pleased I take biology with both of them so I can be around to witness their revenge scheme come to fruition," the other girl exclaimed with delight.

Even though their loud voices bothered me, they were right; I was going to completely ruin her senior year. Just wait and see.

She entered, smeared in cheese, as the door swung open.

“I believe the teacher rubbed off something on her." Mateo, a member of our team and a fantastic midfielder, joked, smiling, The only thing most people find annoying about him is his lousy mouth, otherwise, he is great.

I only laughed for a moment, Even though I have a lot on my mind right now, I just want to think about getting back at the idiotic nerd.

“Who is she?” I asked Mateo.

“Chloe Parker, a typical nerd, nothing interesting about her life,”

“Hmm, I want you to find out everything about her, where she goes to, where she lives, her best friend etc, submit the report tomorrow, understood?”

“Yes of course,”

Satisfied, I looked towards her direction again and saw another girl by her side talking to her, from this distance it didn’t look like a normal conversation rather it looked like she was being scolded but who cares?

Sooner or later, she will get even worse than a scolding.

The class door clicked open and a petite looking lady entered, she was dressed like all the other female teachers in school. I hope she wasn't here to do what I think she wants to do, for crying out loud I just got rid of Mr. Stephen, I don't need a replacement already!

“Hello class I'm Miss Eunice, your temporary substitute teacher.” She introduced herself, the entire class fell silent, which is how I like it because these obnoxious teachers are best avoided by giving them a cold shoulder.

“Welcome to our class, Miss.," a front desk student greeted her.

I craned my neck to look at the person who had just finished speaking, and when I realized it was the stupid nerd who had just irritated me, I couldn't help but become even angrier.

“Why do I have to notice her now? Has she always been this nosy, or is it something she does on purpose to get on my nerves? I queried.

“She always acts like this, and I assume you noticed her after she trod on your toe. Most of the time, you do not notice someone who does nothing for or with you.” Mateo said.

“Thanks for reminding me of the obvious, but it is unfortunate for her that she had to prick her nose in a matter that doesn't concern her now she will have to pay.”

“It will serve as a lesson to the others who would dare to challenge me.” I replied with a sneer on my lips.

“Hey Mr., would you mind sharing what you have with the students? Everyone here would love to hear it,”the substitute teacher remarked.

Of course she wouldn’t know who I am, considering she was employed just today.

“Are you talking to me?”

“Yes, you and your colleague sitting beside you get up. If not for any reason, the fact that it is my first day here please show me some respect.”

I stood up from my seat, I could feel everyone’s eyes on me.

“Do you want to lose your job, miss whatever you are?” I asked, smirking.

Confused, “excuse me?”

“I can do that but before I excuse you, you should know this. If you want to last in this school then never get involved in my business, do you understand?”

“I hope you do because I won’t repeat myself, the next time you speak to me without me first speaking to you then you should be able to bear whatever comes next.”

“Are you threatening me? Who do you think you are anyway?”

“You can see it as a threat if you like, but to me, it is just a helpful suggestion and in response to your second question , I can only say that I am the school's owner's grandson and am therefore not particularly important.”
