Vivian was stunned, “What does this have to do with me?”
“You’re lower than a snake’s belly, jealous of Nicole playing the heroine, so you have a grudge against
her.”
Being blamed by everyone, Vivian was utterly stunned.
“I-I didn’t.”
But no one believed her. Vivian was angry, glaring at Nicole. “This is what you told them, right? You
framed me. How can you be so despicable?”
“I think it’s you who’s despicable.” Ms. Emerson’s voice was heard saying all of a sudden. Everyone
looked back and saw Ms. Emerson standing in the doorway.
She glared at Vivian while walking up to her. “I’ve heard about you destroying Nicole’s costume. I didn’t
expect you to go so far as deliberately breaking the lighting fixture and trying to kill your classmates.
You don’t deserve to be the class monitor with such a character.”
“I-I didn’t do that.” Vivian was aggrieved and desperate, “I admit that I’ve damaged Nicole’s costume,
but I wasn’t so vicious as to want to kill her. What’s more…” Vivian bit her lip and could not continue.
Knowing that she had been wronged, Nicole sighed and said, “What’s more, there’s Gary beside me;
you can’t hurt him.”
Everyone looked over upon hearing that. Vivian looked back in surprise, not realizing that the person
who spoke for her was Nicole.
But Nicole could not care less about Vivian. She came in front of Ms. Emerson. “I’m sure it wasn’t
Vivian who did it, Ms. Emerson. She just damaged my costume.”
Ms. Emerson frowned at Nicole as if she was not convinced. “Are you sure?”
“I’m sure.” Nicole nodded matter-of-factly. Almost everyone knew Vivian admired Gary, and she could
not possibly hurt Gary.
Ms. Emerson then looked at Vivian. “Since Nicole has testified for you, I will believe you for the time
being. But you have repeatedly targeted Nicole and brought shame to the class. You are no longer
qualified to be the class monitor.”
Vivian looked at Ms. Emerson in surprise, not expecting that she would ask her to step down. “Ms.
Emerson-”
“It’s not negotiable.” Ms. Emerson interrupted her and then turned to look at everyone else. “The class
monitor of Class B needs to have both moral integrity, ability, and excellent grades. Nicole got the
highest score in the last monthly exam. So starting today, Nicole is the new class monitor.”
Nicole did not expect Ms. Emerson to make her the head of the class. “Ms. Emerson-”
“Don’t decline the offer. Do the job for a while. If you don’t perform well, I won’t force you to continue.”
Ms. Emerson cut in and looked at Nicole with a serious face, as she expected Nicole to turn it down.
‘Everyone wants to be the class monitor, but Nicole wants to turn it down and negotiate with the
teacher?’
All of her classmates were stunned by how high regard Ms. Emerson had for Nicole right now.
Since Ms. Emerson was so insistent, Nicole could not only give in and agree.
Meanwhile, Vivian clenched her hands, her nails almost sinking into the flesh of her palms, when she
saw what happened.
She had not only been stripped of the class monitor’s position and suffered from humiliation but also
frozen out by Nicole. Vivian pushed her classmates away and ran out of class with tears in her eyes.
Oliver immediately went after her. Ms. Emerson felt disappointed to see all this. “I really don’t
understand how Vivian could become like this.”
Seeing Ms. Emerson’s sadness, Nicole could say nothing but still try to comfort her. “Go take a rest,
Ms. Emerson. Don’t worry. I will take care of the class affairs.”
Ms. Emerson gave Nicole a second glance involuntarily. She knew Nicole was the most dependable
candidate, and she did not have to worry when she handed Nicole the job.
“Well then, I know I can trust you. When you have found who was trying to hurt you, tell me about it,
and will handle it.”
“Thank you.” Nicole looked at Ms. Emerson gratefully.
Ms. Emerson patted her on the shoulder before leaving.
