Chapter 704 Here Comes Veronica (67)
Veronica's face suddenly turned red from Raymond's words.
She quickly looked around. After making sure that no one noticed them, she was relieved.
What was Raymond doing? Why did he suddenly make such a request?
Veronica looked at Raymond in amazement. She quickly opened the car door and ran away, ducking out of Raymond's sight.
Raymond did not drive away until Veronica turned a corner and was out of sight.
After Raymond left, Veronica suddenly walked out from the corner and watched him drive away.
She smiled slightly and walked towards her classroom.
Since Raymond had sent her off, Veronica had enough time to get to the classroom before class.
When Veronica arrived, Stella had already been there.
Stella saw Veronica and asked in surprise, "Hey, did Mr. Cordova make things difficult for you today?"
Hearing Stella mention Raymond, Veronica looked awkward.
"Well, no." Veronica felt a little guilty and did not dare to look at Stella.
Stella did not think too much about it. Instead, she grabbed Veronica's hand and said, "Veronica, do you know? That Shirley has come to our school. Moreover, we can see her in the first class today." Veronica widened her eyes in shock. "What? Shirley... do you mean that she is going to teach us today?"
"That's right! Ms. Hopper just returned to the country a few days ago. You haven't seen her yet, have you? You said that you wanted to see her again. Today, you can finally meet her again!"
Veronica was lost for words.
In fact, she wanted to say that she had met Shirley before but did not greet her.
However, she did not intend to tell Stella about this.
"I see." Veronica nodded.
Stella looked at Veronica with a frown. "What's wrong with you? You liked Ms. Hopper very much before, right? She is now returning to Cloud City and even become a visiting professor in our school. Shouldn't you be excited? Why are you so calm?"
Veronica was startled and did not expect Stella to realize it.
She quickly pretended to be excited. "Of course, I am excited that Ms. Hopper has become our visiting professor!"
Stella still felt that Veronica's expression was strange and looked at her a few more times.
Veronica had always hidden her emotions very well. Therefore, Stella could not tell from her face what she was thinking. In addition, Veronica could keep secrets. If she did not want, she would not say a word about whatever happened.
Stella didn't ask any further since Veronica didn't want to tell her.
After Stella was distracted, Veronica secretly sighed in relief.
She had seen Shirley in a restaurant before... when Shirley greeted Raymond.
What was more, when Shirley met Raymond, she seemed to be familiar with him, which made Veronica a little concerned.
Just as she was thinking about this, the bell rang. Then, a slender person who was immaculately dressed walked in.
Veronica stared at the person.
Seeing that familiar face, Veronica frowned slightly.
It was indeed Shirley.
For some reason, she had always been looking forward to seeing Shirley again. But now... when she saw Shirley again, she was not as excited as she imagined. Something had changed.
After Shirley came in, she introduced herself to Veronica and other classmates. Then, the class started, and she talked to her classmates.
After all, Shirley had been a diplomat before. She had a lively mind and a sharp tongue. She could explain to everyone with the real cases she had met when she was a diplomat. What she said was vivid. Everyone listened to her with great interest, including Veronica.
Halfway through the class, Shirley raised a question for everyone to think about, while she came down from the podium and walked back and forth in the middle aisle.
When she walked to the side of Veronica, Shirley subconsciously glanced at her.
Because when she saw Veronica, she felt a little familiar.
Shirley looked down at Veronica and asked in a low voice, "Hey, have we met before?"
Seeing that Shirley was talking to her, Veronica quickly replied, "Ms. Hopper, I am your fan! I have bought all the books you wrote. You have signed your name on the book for me on your signing session." Shirley was not familiar with Veronica's face and could not remember where she had seen her before. So, when she heard Veronica say this, Shirley believed it.
She must have seen this girl at the signing session.
"So that's the case." Shirley was interested in Veronica. She glanced at the name on the cover of the notebook on Veronica's table.
This girl was Veronica Luke.
There seemed to be quite a few people with this surname.
Shirley glanced at Veronica and said, "Then Veronica, please answer my question just now."
Hearing Shirley's words, Veronica immediately stood up and then answered Shirley's question in her own way.
After hearing Veronica's answer, Shirley looked at her in surprise, her eyes full of admiration.
"Very good."
After saying that, Shirley returned to the podium, repeated Veronica's explanation to other students in the class, and praised Veronica in public.
After a lesson, Veronica felt that the grudge she had against Shirley had lessened.
After all, Shirley was now her teacher.
Students always admired their teachers. What was more, Shirley was indeed someone that Veronica liked and admired before. After they met, this kind of feeling would also increase.
After school in the afternoon, Veronica came out of school. Before she reached the edge of the road, someone suddenly came over and grabbed her hand.
Veronica was startled.This text is © NôvelDrama/.Org.
"Hey, Miss Veronica!" Winy called out to Veronica happily.
When Veronica saw that it was Winy, she immediately relaxed.
"Mrs. Comte, it's you! Why are you here?"
"I came to pick up Zoey from school. You also came out of this school. Do you also study here?"
"Yes!" Veronica nodded.
Zoey saw Winy and Veronica standing together and chatting happily at a distance.
She suddenly rushed forward and pushed Veronica away.
The back of Veronica's head hit the wall behind her.
The moment the back of her head hit the wall, a few images flashed across Veronica's mind.
