No One Bullies Her
When Solomon arrived in Yartran that evening, his friends picked him up and went over Vivian’s
situation with him again.
“Here’s the thing, Solomon. If you want to help Vivian, you’ll have to prove that her work was swapped
out. However, the school keeps everything that the students have submitted locked away. We’ll have to
figure a way to find Vivian’s work.”
“And that’s not going to be easy, is it?”
“No, not really. The school values their reputation more than anything, so unless you can present solid
evidence, they’re not going to simply change their mind.”
At that point, Solomon’s face hardened, for he knew that Vivian would surely be expelled if he did not
tend to that matter personally.
The man then went to the school with his friends leading the way. As expected, the person in charge
was rather upset when he brought up the matter.
“Sir, our school has always been fair when it comes to grading our students. And I believe the students
who attend this school are not only talented but also honest. What makes you think that anyone here
would try to get Vivian expelled on purpose?”
“If that’s the case, you should have no problem showing me her work,” responded Solomon calmly.
However, the person outright refused Solomon’s request. “I’m afraid I can’t do that, sir. There’s no
precedent for that in our school. If you insist on seeing the girl’s work, you’ll have to take it up with the
Duke.”
As a member of the royal family, the Duke, was in charge of the school.
“Fine. I’ll speak with him then. But let me give you a heads-up; if I find out that the school was in any
way responsible for misgrading my niece, you can be sure that the media will hear all about it.”
With that, Solomon stood up and walked out of the office.
The person in charge was taken aback.
“Uncle Solomon!” cried a sweet voice not too far away from him.
After turning to the voice, Solomon saw young Vivian in her school uniform running excitedly toward
him. Her two braids jumped up and down as she hurried over to him.
Just as excited as Vivian was, Solomon put on a big smile and quickly lowered himself before opening
his arms to embrace the young girl. “I’m finally here, Vivi! Are you happy to see me?”
Since Vivian had already grown up, Solomon could no longer lift her like he used to do. All he could do
was give the girl a big hug. My goodness! Just look at how tall this girl is now! Still, she’s as adorable
as ever.
“Of course, I am! So how did it go, Uncle Solomon? Did they make a mistake or something?”
questioned Vivian anxiously as she gazed at Solomon with her puppy-dog eyes.
The man chuckled in response and assured her that everything was under control. “Don’t worry, Vivi.
I’ve already spoken to them, and I’m sure we can work it out. Hey, are you hungry? What do you say
we go grab dinner?”
“Sure!” The young girl got even more excited when Solomon mentioned food.
Hand in hand, the two were just about to head off when Vivian suddenly remembered something.
“Wait! I can’t believe I almost forgot about Kurt and Elaine! I’m going to go see if they want to tag
along.”
Solomon had already heard of the two friends Vivian made at the school, so he waited while the girl
went to get them.
At first, Elaine was glad that Vivian asked her along for dinner. However, when she heard that Solomon
and Kurt would also be there, she turned her friend down.
“Thanks for asking, Vivi, but I just remembered that I have some homework to do. The teacher’s going
to kill me if I don’t finish them by today.”
“Oh, okay. Another time then.”
Even though Vivian was a little disappointed, she promised Elaine that she would get the girl some
takeout before hurrying over to Kurt.
“Hey, Kurt! Are you done for the day yet? My uncle has just arrived, and we’re going to grab dinner. Do
you want to come along?”
The boy was doing his homework in the classroom when Vivian turned up. Although his classmates
were fooling around and making noises, Kurt did not seem bothered at all.
Even with the noises around him, he was able to concentrate on his homework.
Kurt only shifted his attention when Vivian excitedly extended her invitation.
After quickly putting his books and stationeries away, Kurt stood up and went over to Vivian.
“I thought Kurt ignores everybody. Look how he hurries over to that girl.”
“Yeah. That guy wouldn’t even talk to us, and now he’s hurrying over to that girl like a puppy. What the
heck?”
