Olivia took Lorna's resume from Sarah, shook hands briefly with Luke and Rachel, and then led Lorna away from the principal's office.
Sarah watched Olivia and Lorna leave, shook her head and smiled, then said to Luke, "Sorry, Olivia isn't the sociable type, but I poached her from Stanford with a high salary."
Luke waved his hand, seemingly unconcerned about Olivia's cold expression.
The head of the grade level, you know.
There's one of them, but which one is easy to deal with?
Lu Ke's heart trembles whenever he thinks of his former high school homeroom teacher, let alone a grade-level director.
About half an hour later.
Lorna had received her freshly printed class schedule and returned to the principal's office.
Seeing this, Luke and Rachel got up to say goodbye.
Sarah had originally planned to take Luke and Rachel shopping herself, but her secretary reminded her that there was an online meeting of various high schools in California later, so she had to give up the idea.
Sarah then asked her secretary to accompany the two of them.
Luke and Rachel politely declined Sarah's offer.
Visiting the school?
What's so interesting about visiting the school?
From childhood to adulthood, Lu Ke was never the type of student who would be happy and excited to see school.
As for Rachel?
Rachel seems to be the type of person who likes school.
Luke looked at Rachel, who was leading the way and seemed to know the school very well. He was curious about her.
"Have you been here before?"
“I interviewed Sarah at this school. After the interview, Sarah showed me around. It was just last year, and the place hasn’t changed much.”
As Rachel spoke, she turned to Lorna beside her and asked, "Have you gotten the key to the storage box?"
Lorna took a key out of her pocket.
"Took it."
"Let's go check out the rest corridor first."
As Rachel spoke, she led Lorna, and after getting a sense of the direction, they headed towards the rest corridor.
Because it was during the first period, the corridor where students were resting was empty, except for a woman standing not far away, holding a few books in her arms.
Hearing footsteps, the woman looked up and saw Lorna approaching. Her eyes lit up, and she walked over.
"Lorna Dane?"
"……I am."
"Hello."
A woman with long, dark blonde hair, who appeared to have some Asian ancestry, held a book in one hand and extended the other towards Lorna, introducing herself: "My name is Clarice Fang, just call me Clarice. I'm a 12th-year student assistant."
Lorna suddenly realized what was happening and shook hands with Clarice in front of her: "Hello."
Boom!
Luke and Rachel's gazes swept past Lorna and Clarice, and looked at the boy who had rushed in from not far away, pushing open the corridor door with a panicked expression and wet hair.
With a whoosh, the boy swept past the group and rushed towards the stairs.
but!
"David!"
"..."
David, who was just putting on his clothes and preparing to leave, heard a voice behind him, turned around, and saw Luke and the others.
David's gaze fell on Clarice, and he forced a smile.
Good morning, Clarice.
"It is late."
Clarice said speechlessly, "This is the fifth day in a row you've been late since the start of the semester."
David clasped his hands together and said, "Sorry, sorry, the waves in Boracay were just too good today, I couldn't resist. Sorry."
Clarice rolled her eyes.
Rachel, standing nearby, looked over curiously: "Are there waves in Long Beach today? Didn't they say the storm was blown over to Malibu?"
David opened his mouth, looked at Clarice, and explained sadly, "So I waited there for ages and that's why I'm late. I promise, it won't happen again next time."
Clarice shook her head speechlessly.

Clarice Fang felt she must have lost her mind at the time.
Otherwise, why would she give up a perfectly good life as a lazy bum and insist on becoming some kind of student assistant?
How can one study well when surrounded by these mischievous, troublesome, and even hormonally-driven insects?
Clarice convinced herself more than once to follow the rules.
For example, if someone is late, their name will be recorded.
If someone accumulates ten late arrivals and is unable to graduate or advance to the next grade due to poor attendance records, they should just hide away and cry.
but……
I'm still too soft-hearted.
and……
Who told her to be the same as him?
Clarice looked at David Jones, who was standing in front of her with his hands clasped together and frequently offered her small gifts to curry favor. She sighed and said helplessly, "David, this is the last time. I swear, don't be late again."
David quickly assured him.
"I promise this is the last time."
"Let's go."
Clarice, deciding to ignore him, waved to David, signaling him to disappear from her sight immediately.
David quickly turned around, opened his locker not far away, took out the books, and then scurried up the stairs and disappeared down the corridor.
Rachel looked at Luke with a smile on her face.
"Did you ever skip class when you were in school?"
"No."
Luke looked at Rachel with a serious expression.
"What's the point of skipping class? You still have to attend classes. I'm the type who skips school altogether!"
"..."
Clarice, watching David disappear, turned her gaze back to Lorna and smiled, "That guy's name is David Jones, he's also in our twelfth grade. Although he often skips class and likes to sleep in class, he's a good person."
Lorna said "oh" and nodded.
After half an hour.
The parking lot in front of the teaching building.
Rachel smiled at Lorna, who was seeing them off, and said, "How do you feel? The environment here is much better than Orange County High School, isn't it?"
Lorna looked at Rachel with a serious expression: "Any high school is better than the one affiliated with Orange County Jail. This school has three cafeterias, and they're all buffets! My God, our high school's cafeteria was actually supplied exclusively by Orange County Jail."
You get what you pay for.
Luke smiled and said to Lorna, "You can manage on your own, right?"
Lorna nodded: "Yeah, I'm not a child anymore, Luke. By the way, Clarice just said there's a school bus this afternoon that goes to our community. I can try taking the school bus back with Clarice this afternoon."
Upon hearing this, Lu Ke thought for a moment.
nod.
"Okay, just behave yourself and don't cause trouble."
"Ah."
Lorna nodded earnestly.
She knew what Luke meant by those words.
Luke looked at Lorna, whose expression was somewhat serious, smiled, and then said, "But don't be afraid of trouble. If someone provokes you, just call them out. I can't speak for other places, but in Los Santos, our family is born to be bullies, not the bullied."
Lorna looked at Luke with a strange expression.
"Lu Ke, are you teaching me how to be a school bully?"
"No, I'm teaching you that violence can solve 99% of problems."
"What about the remaining one percent?"
"Well..."
Luke smiled, took out sunglasses from his pocket, put them on, reached out and patted Lorna's head, and said with a slight upturn of his lips, "No matter how much trouble you cause, I will take care of it for you."
He now has the five million in seed money needed to restart the gene lock.
and so……
He boasted that even if the gene lock were restarted, he might not be able to conquer the world, but protecting Lorna would be more than enough.
ten minutes later.
Luke drove the A8 again, with Rachel in the car, and left Marlborough Private High School behind them.
"Shall I take you to the company?"
