"Mrs. Towver, do you know whether Scarlett is married? I have an uncle who is still single!"
Mrs. Towver had a good relationship with her students. The girl, who was talking now, was usually lively and outgoing. Mrs. Towver had also met the girl's uncle, who was several years older than Scarlett. He was tall and thin, belonging to the type of men that current girls liked.
As soon as the girl asked, someone immediately said, "Ailsa, don't you say that your uncle is so outstanding that no one deserves him?"
Ailsa snorted and argued, "That’s because I didn’t know Scarlett in the past." 'Scarlett is so beautiful. It would be great if she married my uncle. And my nephew would probably be very handsome!"
Ailsa envisioned a good future for Scarlett and her uncle, but the reality went contrary.
"Haven't you surfed the Internet? Scarlett has already gotten married! Just over half a month ago, her husband showed their love on the Internet, and that was a trending topic."
Mrs. Towver always mentioned Scarlett. And her students were teenagers, who occasionally surfed on the Internet and read novels online. Since they were so familiar with the name "Scarlett" that they would pay more attention to the news about her. But as they had never personally seen the Scarlett on the Internet or the Scarlett mentioned by Mrs. Towver, they were not sure whether the Scarlett on the Internet was the same person praised by Mrs. Towver.
But they saw Scarlett personally today.
When they combined those photos on the Internet with Scarlett they met today, they recognized Scarlett at a glance.
Mrs. Towver said with a smile, "Scarlett is so excellent that there were a lot of boys chasing her in the past. Even if she wasn't married, she would have had a boyfriend long ago!"
Everyone was talking about Scarlett. But after several minutes, Mrs. Towver stopped them. "Okay, be quiet, otherwise the points of our class will be deducted. Do your homework! If you can't become a person like Scarlett, you can join her company after graduation!"
Scarlett hadn't left and stood outside. When she heard this, she couldn't help feeling embarrassed.
