My Stand-In Groom Is A Secret Tycoon (Audrey)

Simon wasn't paying any attention to what Sarah was saying. All he could think about was putting Miles in his place. After all, Miles was the only underachiever he'd ever taught who dared to challenge him.

Simon thought his authority as a teacher would be in jeopardy if he didn't show Miles who was the boss.

The exam results should be out soon. Once he got Miles' report card ranking at the bottom, he planned to smack it in Miles's face. He thought, 'Let's see what excuse he has for staying in this school any longer then.'

With that thought, Simon eagerly approached Oliver and asked, "Mr. Perry, are the midterm exam results out yet?"

The electronic grading was slower than expected; otherwise, Simon thought he would have already made Miles too ashamed to show his face.

Oliver glanced at Simon disinterestedly and instructed several homeroom teachers to come forward and collect the results for each class.

Simon smiled and asked again, "Oliver, how did Class 1 perform this time? I've always been dedicated to this class, and the kids are smart and clever, but since I've just taken over, we're still getting used to each other.

"I hope the results didn't disappoint." He was intentionally being humble.

Class 1 gathered all the top students in Talaris High School. Their exam results were always way ahead, and even the combined average scores of the other six classes couldn't catch up with Class 1.

Simon thought Class 1's results should also be good this time, and he thought Oliver would praise him.

However, Oliver calmly said, "Class 1's performance was just okay. There's some improvement from before, but I think it could be even better."

Simon's smile froze, but he quickly composed himself and said in a flattering manner, "You're right, Oliver. I'll think of ways to boost the kids' scores even more."

"You do need to pay more attention," Oliver said plainly.

Simon felt a bit smug. Remembering how Sarah spoke up for Miles earlier and didn't give him any face, he purposely asked, "Oliver, how did Class 7 do on this exam?

"Did they lower the overall average for the seniors again?" Saying this in public,

he didn't have any respect for Sarah.

In the crowd, Sarah's face turned slightly pale; she felt quite embarrassed.

Unexpectedly, the usually stern and cold Oliver smiled. He happily said, "Class 7 has a student who made a huge improvement this time, even doing better than many students from Class 1. A real dark horse!"

Simon's expression changed, feeling a foreboding sensation.

The next moment, Oliver walked straight to Sarah and appreciatively said, "Ms. Kim, your student Miles has improved quickly. How did you manage it?

"You should discuss your methods with other teachers to help more students with their final preparations."

Sarah was still in a trance. Her expression was blank as she replied, "Miles from my class? He has always been very smart."

Simon couldn't accept it and held on to one last bit of hope. He said, "Mr. Perry, how many places did Miles move up? Did he get into the top ten in the grade?"

According to their bet, no matter how much Miles improved, it was a loss as long as he didn't get into the top ten.

Oliver was in a good mood and didn't notice Simon's unusual expression, Smiling, he said, was near the bottom in the last

Hearing this, Simon's face turned pale.

Lost in his thoughts, Oliver continued, "This student has unlimited potential. We must nurture him well; he might even bring glory to our school in the SAT."
