The Million-Dollar Heart novel Chapter 56

Teachers at Cloudcrest High School all had their own dorms, so they usually didn't come to the cafeteria for lunch. Most of them cooked in their dorms instead.

So, when news spread that a teacher was coming over, everyone was taken aback.

All eyes turned to Logan, who was seen flashing a polite smile at a pretty girl around their age.

"No need. I can do it myself," Vivienne refused.

"Ms. Vivienne, you've been working hard for our class. I should do this," Logan insisted.

He'd learned something that morning: stick to Vivienne to get the good stuff.

"Alright then!" said Vivienne. "I'm not picky. Just get whatever."

Most of the cafeteria food was fast food.

Vivienne wasn't a big fan of fast food, but since she was in the cafeteria, she'd have to make do.

"Okay." Logan quickly went off to get Vivienne's food.

This scene left all the students astonished.

They hadn't misheard. Logan was really addressing a teacher, a girl around their age.

Before long, the students started to whisper amongst themselves.

"What's happening? Has Logan changed?"

"Not just Logan, everyone in Class Eighteen seems to be different. Don't you think?"

"You're right! They didn't pick on anyone today. They're all behaving themselves. If we didn't know better, we'd think they were model students!"

"Isn't that girl the new transfer student? Why is Logan referring to her as the teacher?"

The students were buzzing with chatter, their voices getting louder. Normally, the people from Class Eighteen would cause a ruckus, but not today. Vivienne had just set down the law. Who'd dare to stir up trouble now?

Vivienne didn't care about all that. She suddenly remembered she hadn't given Logan money and stood up to find him.

As she got up, she bumped into someone, "Sis?"

Arabella looked at Vivienne in disbelief, "What are you doing here?"

Then, as if something clicked, she muttered to herself, "Sis, have you finally agreed to Grandma's plan to come to school?"

She glanced at the students from Class Eighteen beside Vivienne and smiled, "They haven't been bullying you, right? If they do, just tell me. I'll make sure they pay."

Unlike others, Arabella wasn't afraid of the students from Class Eighteen. In fact, none of the students from rich and powerful families were scared of them.

"Why don't you ask them if they dare to bully me?" Vivienne said with a playful glint in her eyes.

Arabella was confused. Vivienne didn't look like she'd been bullied at all.

How could that be?

Everyone knew what kind of people were in Class Eighteen!

Every student or teacher that entered Class Eighteen had to go through some tough times, unless they were able to stand their ground.

Arabella thought for a moment, and then it hit her, "As long as you're not being bullied, that's what matters. I guess you wouldn't be scared of those lowlifes since you grew up in the countryside!"

Although it seemed like she was showing concern for Vivienne, she was actually making fun of her for being from a lower social class.

"What did you just say?" Oberon, who had just been put in his place by Vivienne, was now being mocked by Arabella. He was furious, "Who are you calling a lowlife?"

"Did I say something wrong?" Arabella smirked, "Don't you guys know what kind of reputation Class Eighteen has in this school? My sister came from the countryside. She doesn't know any better, but everyone at Cloudcrest High School knows who you guys are."
