Chapter 73 Teach Them All A Lesson
“Shut up, Danny.”
Naturally, Eustace, who followed behind Sophie, heard Danny’s remark as well.
Good Lord! Why are they saying all this to a little girl?
“Don’t take their words to heart. Such is their nature, enthusiastic without any malicious intentions.”
“I didn’t take it to heart.”
Danny proceeded to tell Sophie about the problem they encountered, and the latter managed to resolve it in less than five minutes.
“How about this, Danny? Add me to your contacts on WhatsApp. If there are any problems in the future, send them to me directly.”
In truth, Sophie found it very much a hassle to go to the police station often.
“Sure!”
Danny instantly took out his phone and added her to his contact on WhatsApp.
“You’re really incredible, Ms. Tanner!” Her computer skills are indomitable! Perhaps only Phantom from Wings of Light is her match!
Even then, Danny was blown away by her capabilities.
Subsequently, Eustace and Danny saw Sophie out.
Eustace opened the door to the jeep.
“I’ll drive you back.”
Without any token protest, Sophie climbed into the car.
“Bye!”
Throughout it all, Danny and the other team members watched on the sidelines.
Eustace shot them a glare before driving off.
“I’m sorry. You must have been ill at ease today, huh?”
“Not really. I’m used to it.”
At once, Eustace was dumbfounded.
Huh? There’s getting used to such a thing?
“Then, it seems that you’re very popular, Ms. Tanner.”
Sophie didn’t reply to that comment of his.
Upon seeing that she seemingly didn’t want to talk to him, Eustace felt somewhat defeated.
He drove her to Jipsdale Premier High.
“I’ll go and explain things to your teacher.” By then, two periods had passed.
“No, it’s okay. I can manage by myself.”
“Thank you very much for today, Ms. Tanner.”
“You don’t have to stand on formality with me, Captain Sheppard. All right, I’ll be going in.”
Eustace watched Sophie enter the school compound from the car until she disappeared from sight before he turned the car around and left.
She’s shrouded in mystery!
By the time Sophie arrived at her class, the third period had already commenced.
“I’m here,” Sophie declared.
When Derrick saw that it was her, his brows inexorably knitted together.
“Sophie, I know your grades are already excellent, but there’s no end to the pursuit of knowledge. You must continue working hard.”
“I understand, Mr. Hayes.”
Derrick was a decent person, so Sophie was extremely courteous to him.
“All right, go back to your seat.”
After returning to her seat, Sophie didn’t sleep out of respect for the man.
When the third period had ended, Ysabelle asked Sophie to accompany her to the washroom.
“Where did you go? Do you know how worried I was? You should’ve brought me with you when you skipped class!”
“Ms. Lombard, you seem eager to skip classes!”
“Of course! It’ll be even better if I get to scale the wall!”
After having been a good student for such a long time, Ysabelle wanted to do something out of character during her senior year. Only then would she be able to boast of having lived her youth.
“Sure! When I’m free, I’ll bring you to do that!”
“Really? I just knew that you love me most, Soph!” Ysabelle gazed at Sophie in adulation.
Sophie didn’t want to go to the washroom, so she plugged in her earphones while waiting for Ysabelle and listened to music as she stood in the corridor.
Out of the blue, someone patted her on the shoulder. She glanced over her shoulder, only to see that it was Bailey.
Puzzlement inundated her, but still, she removed her earphones.
