Many people recognized that he was the head of the Ellison family —Thomas Ellison.
They all stared blankly with their mouths open wide.
They did not understand why he would come over in person just to listen to what they were talking about.
But that did not stop them from doubting Nicole.
Mr.Kennedy had heard what the other teachers had t o say.
As he saw Mr.Ellison coming over, he thought h e was interested in the discussion, so he tried to flatter him and said,
"Mr.Ellison, you're here.We were discussing the relationship between Nicole and Mr.Wyance.All of us are highly suspicious that this has something to do with why she got first place in the Math Olympiad.We suspect that she knew the question beforehand.Otherwise, how could she have gotten full marks with her level in math?"
After he said this, he looked at Mr.Ellison confidently and waited for him to agree.
Many teachers were also looking at Mr.Ellison.
They knew that the head of Royal Creek Institute was upright and honest.
'He would hate Nicole after hearing about this" they thought.
Ms.Emerson knew that she could not let Mr.Kennedy smear Nicole's name in front of the head of the school.
"It's not like that, Mr.Ellison.Nicole would never"
Before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by Vivian.
''Ms.Emerson, I'm afraid you don't know the real Nicole.That goody two shoes made a personal attack on me this morning and even threatened to kill me.I'm not surprised that she would cheat.After all, she did make a bet with Mr.Kennedy."
