Chapter 67: Chapter 67 - 67: 67: Tutoring Might Be Necessary

“How did high school senior Elizabeth confront Ben?”

The post detailed how Ben had targeted Elizabeth and how she retaliated against him.

An illicitly taken photograph was attached as evidence.

“Getting into trouble with Ben at the start of the school year? She’s doomed.

Her life in Class 2 won’t be easy from now on.]”

“She’s truly a troublemaker. Didn’t she cause trouble for Linda? Linda tried to mediate but was completely ignored. If it were me, I wouldn’t bother helping her.”

“Poor Linda, getting involved with someone like Elizabeth. And I heard she never attended school before. Class 2 will surely be dragged down by her.”

“Even if she’s problematic, she’s cool. Standing up against Ben directly is impressive. I think she did right. The more you stay silent about bullying, the more aggressive the bully becomes.”

“We’re getting off-topic. Aren’t we discussing the transfer student’s character?”

Renee was scrolling through the forum on her phone. She sneakily glanced at Elizabeth, who was engrossed in her book and rapidly typed a comment.

“Am I the only one who notices her face? She’s genuinely beautiful. If only she wasn’t so fierce and had a better attitude towards studying, I would love to be her friend.

Unbeknownst to Elizabeth, she had been the talk of the Campus Forum for an entire day. Even if she did find out, she wouldn’t care.

This was life when you stand out.

After class, Emily immediately called Elizabeth to walk home together.

Linda, who was about to approach, awkwardly withdrew her hand. The classmates pitied her even more, as she was repeatedly ignored by Elizabeth.

It seemed clear that Elizabeth was purposely avoiding Linda.

Such mean behavior.

On their way home, Emily confided to Elizabeth, “This recent quiz is just the beginning. Sunny Heights has an intense curriculum. I’m afraid I can’t keep up, especially now that we’re in our senior year…”

“It’ll be alright,” Elizabeth reassured her, “If there’s something you don’t understand, you can…”

Before she could finish, Emily interrupted, “If there’s something you don’t understand, you can ask me. I’ve prepared notes for you. Here you go.”

Taking the notebook handed to her, Elizabeth blinked in surprise, and after a moment, she responded, “Thank you.”

“What’s there to thank?”

“I’m happy to help you.”

Skimming through the notebook, Elizabeth’s expression grew serious. Some of the notes were misguided.

“I’ll correct these and return it to you.”

Emily corrected her, “You mean review, right?”

Elizabeth paused, not wanting to shatter her friend’s confidence.

At dinner, Sir and Lady Wilson showered Elizabeth with concern.

She had grown accustomed to their warmth and answered their questions with a nod, regardless of the content.

Seeing Elizabeth show no discomfort, Sir and Lady Wilson were at ease.

Linda’s grip on her fork tightened as she asked, “Elizabeth, how did you do on today’s quiz? I noticed you only wrote for a few minutes before stopping. Were the questions too challenging?”

Jack saw his chance to interject, “If there’s anything you don’t get, you must ask Linda.”

“It wasn’t hard,” was Elizabeth’s simple reply.

Jack frowned, thinking Elizabeth was being spiteful towards him.

Regardless of any tension between them, she shouldn’t jeopardize her academics. She was indeed immature.

Sophia, concerned that Elizabeth might struggle to keep up with Sunny

Heights’ pace, tentatively suggested, “Perhaps we should get you a tutor?”

Elizabeth lifted her eyelids, her voice indifferent, “No need.”

Sophia turned to Sir. Wilson for backup.

“Let’s wait for the quiz results. If they aren’t satisfactory, tutoring will be necessary.”

Sir. Wilson stated. Although he believed Elizabeth’s grades wouldn’t be too bad, given she earned her spot at Sunny Heights High School on her own, he also knew there was a difference between entrance and regular exams..
