The Second Life of a Discarded Heiress novel Chapter 163

The next day, when Citrine returned to Havencrest Technical College for another tutoring session, she was surprised to find the school's entire leadership team—everyone from the principal to the department heads—waiting at the entrance to greet her.

They were all impeccably dressed in suits, so much so that for a second, Citrine wondered if she'd somehow offended the wrong organization.

Once she arrived, the administrators each took a moment to introduce themselves.

After Citrine had a grasp of who was who, she briefly introduced herself as well. Then, she was escorted by a few staff members to a newly assigned lecture hall.

But today, things were different. Instead of just students, a whole row of teachers sat quietly at the back of the classroom, ready to observe.

Citrine swept her gaze over them, pretending not to notice, and launched into her lesson as usual.

She taught a mix of humanities and sciences, and regardless of the subject, her explanations were clear and captivating—often even better than the regular faculty. In subjects like history and civics, she told vivid stories that brought dry material to life, making it easier for students to remember and stay engaged.

As for the sciences, those were her specialty. Citrine's approach to problem-solving was remarkably straightforward—much simpler than the methods used by the teachers at Primus Academy. The students at Havencrest Technical College immediately grasped her logic and found themselves understanding concepts that had stumped them before.

After a few sessions, it was clear her classes had become impromptu training seminars for the faculty as well. The teachers at Havencrest learned a great deal just by listening in, and their initial admiration for Citrine soon turned into genuine respect.

Over the following days, every time Citrine taught, not a single teacher skipped her class. During breaks, they'd seek out students who were struggling and go over exercises to help reinforce what they'd just learned.

Before long, Citrine became accustomed to the new routine.

This continued all the way up to finals week.

Havencrest held their end-of-term exams a few days earlier than Primus Academy. For once, the students were actually looking forward to the test. Instead of dreading it, they were eager to show how much they'd learned from Citrine's lessons, determined to hand in exams they could be proud of.
