Chapter 96 I Won't Let You Get Away With It

Vivian replied, "Char has always been lovable."

Reagan remarked, "I think she's quite scheming. The incident with Daisy was probably planned by her. Otherwise, how could it be so coincidental?"

Vivian chuckled. "Who knows? However, I'm a little worried about Char's health. Her body is quite weak. She would collapse and faint after running less than five laps in physical education class... I still recall when she passed out during our first year and had to be hospitalized."

Reagan smirked. "Is she so delicate? Don't worry. Our school's physical education classes are a breeze. I guess she won't be able to make a scene."

Vivian simply smiled without saying anything more.

It didn't matter if Reagan understood her meaning or not as long as...

She cast a glance at the receding figure.

As long as someone understood, it was enough.

Their physical education teacher was a 6-foot-tall muscular man named Dawson. His well-defined muscles were clearly visible under his sports vest, and he had a handsome look. Some of the brave girls even gathered around him and joked with him.

Due to her short stature, Charlotte had to stand separately from Eloise. She felt embarrassed as she stood at the front of the line. The physical education teacher glanced at Charlotte and instructed, "Start counting."

Charlotte responded, "One."

After one round of counting, it seemed that everyone was present in the class.

Dawson nodded in satisfaction and said, "Mr. Mason called me for a meeting last semester and expressed concerns about the amount of exercise I provided to you. He felt it was inadequate to achieve fitness goals. Therefore, starting this semester, I'll closely monitor your exercise routines. For those who are absent or uncooperative, I'll have a conversation with your parents."

He then continued, "Okay, let's begin by running ten laps around the field."

The field in Srolanya High School was quite large, and running ten laps was really challenging. One of the girls interjected immediately, "Sir, we can't possibly run that much! Even three laps are exhausting!"

Dawson replied, "It's because you all keep slacking off and fooling around that your physical fitness is falling behind! Fine. Boys will run ten laps, and girls will run five laps. Don't come up with excuses like menstrual pain! Unless your leg is broken, you'd better finish the run! Otherwise, I'll call your parents!"

Children at this age were most afraid of involving their parents. After some grumbling and complaining, everyone didn't say anything else.

Charlotte was about to raise her hand but silently withdrew it.

She thought to herself, "If I don't run... What should I do if the teacher calls my parents? Well, I shall talk to him after running two laps."

The team swiftly started moving. The boys' stamina was different from the girls after all. They soon took a significant lead. As Cecilia was unwilling to be left behind, she quickly caught up, scaring several boys trailing behind her half to death.

Just after completing one lap, Charlotte began to feel discomfort in her abdomen. Her limbs began to grow weak, and she felt powerless. She pursed her lips and left the team to find the teacher. "...Mr. Maddox."

Dawson glanced at her and asked, "What's the matter?"

Charlotte pursed her pale lips and replied, "...I'm not feeling very well. Can I not run?"

Dawson furrowed his brow. "Hey, are you new here? I've already said it. Five laps, and not a single one less. Otherwise, I'll call your parents immediately!"

Charlotte felt helpless. She had no choice but to explain her medical history to Dawson. Dawson impatiently responded, "Every student comes up with some illness or another when they want to skip the run. Who do you think you're fooling? Go back and continue running! Otherwise, I'll call your guardian right away!"

Her guardian...

Nelson...
