A week later, the senior students of Cloudcrest High School were successfully embracing their college entrance exams.
Half a month later, the college entrance exam results came out, and to everyone's surprise, two dark horses emerged from Class Eighteen.
One was Charlotte Redwood, who was admitted to the Cambridge Excellence Institute with the highest score in the state, and the other was Faye Churchill, who was admitted to the Harvard Knowledge Institute with the second highest score in the state.
It was already quite an achievement for a class to have one student admitted to such prestigious institutions, yet somehow, Class Eighteen had produced two!
As for Logan Wood, Oberon Harper, and Coral Lockwood, they too had made it to pretty good universities.
Upon hearing this news, the parents of other classes who had previously targeted Vivienne were somewhat stunned.
They all doubted their memories. Could this really be the achievement of the once-failing Class Eighteen?
Lysander was overjoyed. This year, besides the suddenly blossoming Class Eighteen, there were two students admitted to the prestigious universities. An accomplishment the previous years could not match.
It was all thanks to his brilliant move of inviting Vivienne to be Class Eighteen’s headteacher.
The parents of the students in Class Eighteen never dreamed that their children could achieve such good grades. On graduation day, they surrounded Vivienne, expressing their gratitude in turns.
Meanwhile, the parents of the junior students, upon seeing Vivienne, became as eager as a wolf that had just spotted its prey. They surrounded Vivienne to inquire about which class she would be taking next year. Whichever class she would head would be the class they planned on transferring their children into.
Other schools also wanted to recruit this talent. Since Vivienne was generally unreachable, they took the opportunity to approach her at Cloudcrest High School's graduation ceremony.
Vivienne was surrounded by a sea of people, while Percival, the not-so-useful gym teacher, was pushed aside.
"Don't even think about it. Vivienne won't stay." He said while looking at Lysander, who was standing beside him, smiling from ear to ear.
Vivienne came to Cloudcrest High School to look for Anna. Now that Anna was no longer here, she naturally wouldn't stay.
Lysander's smile stiffened, and he looked at Percival with a hint of resentment. As if he were the reason he could no longer fantasize and daydream.
"Daydreaming too much can lead to senility." It was like Percival had come to retrieve his prized possession. Giving Lysander the impression that he should stop living in his fantasy land.
Sure enough, when Vivienne was asked for the nth time which class she would be taking next year, she said, "I'm sorry. Today is my last day as a headteacher at Cloudcrest High School. After this, I'll resign and no longer teach."
The parents of the junior students were greatly disappointed and dispersed, leaving only the parents of Senior Class Eighteen, who were still enthusiastically surrounding Vivienne.
This scene, naturally, was witnessed by many, including Scott Brooks, who had come to attend Arabella's graduation ceremony at her request.
"That seems to be your foster sister." Scott said, looking at Vivienne in the crowd. "Let's go say hello."
A shadow crossed Arabella's eyes. She was reluctant.
