Chapter 151
Flora slipped into her slippers, grabbed the phone, and ran to the kitchen. After pressing the answer button, she placed the phone next
to Raul’s car
A male voice came through the phone. Flora didn’t catch what they were saying, but whatever it was, it left Raul looking quite pleased. After hanging up, Raul beamed at Flora and said, “Flora, didn’t you want Jade to get into Elite High School? It’s all set. She’ll be going to the school to sign the contract next Monday.”
“Can I go see?” Flora asked.
“Of course, I’ll mention it to Zeke, and someone will take you there.”
Still, Raul was curious, “Why on earth are you so set on getting Jade into Elite High School?”
Holding her phone, Flora gave Raul a mysterious look.
Monday arrived
Jade came to the school, her arms full of documents, looking rather nervous.
She thought that after all the scandals about her surfaced online, Elite High School would surely rescind their offer. To her surprise, the school was actually allowing her to sign the contract.
“Hello, I’m Jade, the new teacher. The HR department called me over to sign my contract,” Jade said pleasantly.
The staff member working there looked up at her gave her an indifferent glance, and lowered his head again, “Show me your offer

If there are no issues, you can sign.” Jade’s college friend worked at Elite High School and had never mentioned anything negative about it. Plus, with such a prestigious institution, she didn’t expect any foul play.
So, Jade quickly skimmed through the contract, noting a clause about not resigning for five years–a common condition, which didn’t

As she was about to finish, the staff member, appearing to be in a hurry for other things, started to rush her, “Are you done yet? I have meeting to attend soon.”
“Alright, done” Jade hastily responded, grabbed a pen from the desk, and signed her name.
“Follow Ms. Wilson to the principal’s office. Someone is expecting you there.” The staff member collected the contract and called over a young woman…
The young woman led Jade to the top–floor office. The office was empty, and she asked Jade to wait before leaving.
As Jade looked around the luxurious office, marveling at the opulence of private schools, footsteps approached from outside.
Jade quickly turned around and bowed respectfully, saying, “Good day, Principal.” With her head lowered, she could see a pair of sneakers across from her.
“Ms. Jade, giving me such a grand bow after just a few days? You flatter me. The girl’s voice was clear and bright, familiar to Jade beyond measure.
Jade’s heart skipped a beat. She looked up to meet those amused eyes. “You-”
What was Flora doing here?
