Unexpectedly Sweet Flash Marriage novel Chapter 24

Chapter 24 Mr. Curtis Supported His Wife in Any Way

Adeline took Melissa's phone to have a look.

Sure enough, the comments on her personal voting page are all the same.

"A ballot rigging? Does the competition have any meaning then"

"What a shameless cheater!"

"Don't vote for this teacher. She has no moral. She has paid for those companies to vote for her."

"So disgusting! As a teacher, she even cheats in order to win."

Adeline gave back the phone to Melissa. Her face darkened.

She brought Melissa to balcony and called Curtis.

"Uncle... honey", Adeline was still not used to call him "honey". She wanted to call him "Uncle Curtis" subconsciously.

She remembered that Curtis had bit her lip the night before so she called him "honey" immediately.

Melissa heard how Adeline called Curtis. She felt so speechless...

Curtis at the other end also paused for a moment. Then he satirized Adeline, "Ms. Burton, do you have many husbands that you forget which one I am?"

Adeline felt awkward. She replied back, "Don't joke on me now! I need to ask you something. You said that I could ask you if I have any questions."

"OK, ask then."

"I told you to vote for me. Did you find some ballot rigging companies to vote for me?"

"No." Curtis said decidedly. "All the votes coming from the acquaintance and the people in the company. Although I have no real power now. I still have my old contacts. What is the matter?"

"Nothing. There are always people saying that I cheat. Since we do not have ballot rigging, we need not to care about those comments."

"Alright. I will follow Ms. Burton's order."

Melissa saw that Adeline brushing for a while, being bashful for a while and then pouting for a while. She felt that they were show affection.

After Adeline hung up the phone, she looked at Melissa and said, "He said he didn't do that. I trust in him."

Seeing their affection, Melissa asked, "And then?"

"Nothing. A clean hand wants no washing."

Melissa said, "It seems that I have worried too much."

At the other end, as soon as Curtis hung up the phone, Steffen walked over.

Steffen said, "Mr. Riley, some people are slandering Mrs. Riley on the internet. I have found these ID accounts. I also got the surveillance video of the Internet cafe. It was Mrs. Riley's competitors who did it.

And, some zombie accounts are found by Victoria. This teacher has several accounts to slander Mrs. Riley and Victoria acts as a helper."

"Good, give these evidences to the competition committee and ask them to judge fairly. As for Victoria, I will deal with her altogether later."

"In addition, from this moment on, all the people who vote for Mrs. Riley must finish watching her lesson video and everyone must write a 300-word comment about her lesson after watching the video. Everyone must write down their own feeling without copying others' comment."

"Three...three hundred words?" Steffen, whose writing was bad felt like he was crying. He said, "Mr. Riley, can it be less?"

"OK, other people write a comment of three-hundred words and you need to finish a four-hundred-word one."

Steffen could not say anything...

Three hours later...

The teacher who came second in the overall score was disqualified by the organizing committee for unfair competition and maliciously smeared other contestants.

Soon people could see that most of the comments in the voting page of Adeline were long.

Many of the comments were commented with real names, which made those comments look sincere.

For example, a comment made by someone named Steffen -- "This teacher is so good at teaching! So good! I am speechless to describe her teaching skills. But the contents she teaches has enlightened me a lot. I even want to become a primary school student to have her lessons. If I met a teacher like this when I was a child, I would have become a litterateur now..."

Adeline saw his comment and couldn't help laughing.

Melissa took a quick look at Adeline's phone. She felt wordless and said, "This person must be a weak student. It seems that he is not a smart one."

After finishing her words, Melissa felt guilty being staring by Adeline. She shrank her neck and said, "If it is me... who write a comment, I can certainly do better than him!"

Adeline just smiled without saying anything. She thought to herself that Melissa must not marry someone like Steffen, or neither of them could help their children with homework.

Melissa kept on reading the comments. There were also some suggestions from teachers in the educators. She felt those comments were good, so she read carefully and recorded.

Suddenly, Melissa, who was watching short videos let out an "Oh" sound.

"Adeline, it seems that there are so many people who give comments to your video and your video become so popular! Look, your video has been shared by so many people! And, the comments under your video are mostly positive."
