Blessing wiped the happy tears off her eyes and dried her hand by rubbing it on her skirt.“Sure. Let’s go” she said then grabbed the cafeteria door handle and pushed it open.Both of them went inside the cafeteria and were immediately met with the judging eyes of the other students.“What is he doing here? I thought a rich punk like him wouldn’t want to taste the low-quality food we in this school eat” one student said, sneering at Alexander as the young multimillionaire and Blessing walked passed his and his friends' table.“Look at Blessing too. She has no shame walking next to that cheater” another student said.They were angry not because they thought Alexander was cheating in the exam but because they were jealous that Alexander was allowed to cheat while they weren’t.Also, it was easy to hate someone when they were doing better than you so it became the fad to despise Alexander.“Don’t mind them. They are like that because Princess hasn’t gotten around to telling them the trut
Conroy and his two friends approached the table, and the mischievous look he had made everyone know that nothing good was going to come out of his presence. “Eating together like two lovebirds, huh?” Corner said, drawing Alexander’s and Blessing’s attention to himself.“Come on Corner, let’s leave them alone,” Benjamin said, looking and sounding tired.Stan had the same demeanor about him as Benjamin.“Don’t worry guys, everything’s fine. You can leave if you want but I want to talk to—“ Corner said but was interrupted.“What are you doing here?” Blessing asked and Corner smirked.“What? Can’t I congratulate the couple again? And I thought we were friends but what type of friend tries to chase the other for no reason” Corner said mischievously as he sat down beside Alexander while Benjamin and Stan remained standing behind the bench. Corner looked at Alexander and Blessing then he looked at Alexander’s tray with a massive smile on his face.“I’m happy to see that you enjoy our very
Meanwhile, back at Alexander’s table, the drama continued.“Yeah. He would do that not because he’s wicked or anything but because he would want to teach you a lesson about responsibility. It’s highly irresponsible doing something that’ll risk your future when you’re in such a very important moment so I stopped you from doing something you will regret” Alexander said and Blessing lowered her head in embarrassment.Alexander looked at the girl for a moment, seeing that she had learned her lesson.“Good,” he said then looked at Corner beside him.“You wanted to know mine and Blessing’s relationship so bad well let me tell you what it is,” Alexander said and Corner’s eyes widened and ears cleared up to pay attention. Meanwhile, Benjamin and Stan who were standing behind the bench brought out their phones to check the message the other students were currently checking. “I know Blessing because I’m a friend of her grandmother”Corner grimaced.“You are what now?” He asked.“You heard me
Corner fell from his bench and it turns out the bench was raised from the ground and he fell because of it.Confused about what could have caused him to fall, Corner looked at the part of the bench he had felt rise and he saw Alexander holding the end.“What the hell? How are you able to lift such a heavy—?” Corner asked but Alexander cut him off.Alexander chuckled.“Sorry about that. Sometimes I forget just how strong I am and I didn’t even know I was holding on to the bench when I stood until it was too late and you had fallen off” he said and Corner frowned. “What kind of bullshit is that?! You did that on purpose didn’t you?!” Corner who was angry that Alexander was getting in the way of Blessing forgiving him yelled.“What? Why would I do something so mean on purpose? As I said, I didn’t know I was holding onto the bench and carried it along when I was standing. I guess I better learn to control my strength before I hurt someone by accident” Alexander said then looked at Corner
“But there’s still fifteen minutes left before the time is up. If he’s on his fifth exam and has this much time left, there’s a high chance that he will finish just as we too finish. I can’t believe this. Just who in the hell is this guy?” Another student asked.Alexander, who could hear the intrigued and impressed murmurs being made about him, smirked and started his fifth exam. One minute left until the time given for the fifth exam was over, Alexander flipped to the last page he was going to answer on.He wrote at an incredible speed and before any of them knew it, he stopped writing, closed his answer script, and dropped it on the stack of answered answer scripts. Those who still had some things to write and were scrambling, trying to come up with the answer but were having a difficult time, couldn’t believe that Alexander just finished such a difficult exam in a quarter of the time they were given and what’s more, he did so with seconds to spare.Finally, the time elapsed, and
Thirty minutes later, they looked at Alexander, shocked to see that he was still writing the exam that wasn’t as difficult as the last one they just finished.The only person who wasn’t surprised was the investigator who Alexander had told that he was going to take things slow now that he had caught up with everyone.“Focus on your exams. Don’t think that I will give you extra time when you didn’t finish because you were distracting yourself with the affairs of another examinee” the invigilator warned and they all did as told. Another ten minutes passed and Alexander finally finished his exam then rested his head on the desk, waiting for the invigilator to tell them to submit so he could do so.Watching Alexander, the invigilator chuckled and thought ‘After saying he would take it slow, he still finished before the others did. What a remarkable student”The invigilator focused on the other students, making sure to watch for any strange activity that could be seen as cheating.The nex
By the principal’s voice, Alexander could tell that the man was excited to see him.Following instructions, Alexander opened the door and went inside.He hadn’t even closed the door when he heard the principal telling him to have a seat.Alexander closed the door and then said “Don’t mind if I do” as he walked up to the desk.He sat down.“I’m guessing you’ve finished your exam, seeing how you’re here in my office. Well, I’d like to say I’m surprised but I’ve learned to accept the unconventional from you. And here I was thinking that you’ll barely be able to finish with the others but you did the opposite and finished before they did” the principal said with a proud smile on his face.“I would have taken it slowly but a certain principal threatened to take my name off the list of college entrance exam applicants if I didn’t do the needful,” Alexander said and the principal laughed.“Speaking of the list, I was just about to go through it before waiting for your arrival and then send i
“He’s going to leave without telling me or saying goodbye? How rude” Blessing said, pouted, and then continued focusing on her exam. Alexander drove to the gate where the gatekeeper, who was excited to see him after their last interaction, opened the gate for him, bid him an energetic goodbye, and drove away. He returned to The Sam’s Hotel where he gave one of the valets the car key to go park the car like normal then he waited for the employee to return with the key before going into the hotel. “Good afternoon Tessa” Alexander greeted when he got close to the reception.“Good afternoon Mr. Alexander” Tessa greeted back.“I imagine you had an eventful outing,” she said.Alexander smirked.“Very eventful indeed. Anyway, what about that stuff I told you about?” He asked.“As you said, the packages were delivered within the timeline you gave”“Good to hear. I had it under good authority that I would be getting the packages without any delay but it’s nice to see that it played out the
