Andrew merely sneered. "Big deal. I bet you don't know who my father is, do you?"
When he brought up his father, Yolanda didn't respond right away. She was well aware that Blake was his father, but she didn't see the need to play her hand just yet.
"If I don't report this to the school's higher-ups, you'd be facing more than just a disciplinary action!" Andrew mistook her silence as fear.
After hearing that, the other student council members secretly laughed at Yolanda's foolishness for daring to challenge their president. It was especially amusing that she had no idea who Andrew's father was. Otherwise, she wouldn't have been so bold as to stir up trouble in the student council office.
Andrew's father was the general manager of Doxcon Group, well-connected with the underground forces in Riverdale, and involved in numerous collaborations with them. If Yolanda had crossed Andrew and gotten him to ask his father for help, she would be in for a lot more trouble than just a school sanction.
"I'll give you 24 hours. You can reach out to anyone you want. But if I'm still around tomorrow, I'll be the new student council president of First Academy, and you'll all be working for me. Deal?" Yolanda sat calmly in Andrew's seat, her demeanor as composed as ever.
"What? You must really have a death wish!" Before Andrew could respond, the other student council members burst into laughter.
"We won't fault you for not knowing Andrew's background, but if you still refuse to apologize after we've warned you, you're clearly asking for trouble."
"Exactly! If Andrew loses his temper, you won't just be kicked out of First Academy. You won't be able to stay in Riverdale either!"
"Hurry up and apologize! Who do you think you are to challenge our president?"
Everyone in the office laughed at Yolanda's overconfidence. No one took her seriously.
