Alexa and Alexander went back to the top floor and once there, Alexa knocked on the door which Gift heard and gave them permission to enter the office.“By the looks on your faces, it appears that everything went just fine,” Gift said with a welcoming smile.Alexa answered “Yes, Miss Gift. Though it took some time, I was able to get him enrolled and all that’s left is for the principal to take him to the exam hall”Gift looked at Alexa and her smile slowly turned into a curious grimace.“You know you didn’t have to come back here with him because you’ve already done what you were supposed to and to my awareness, your service is no longer needed. I’m sure Alexander knew how to get here on his own, isn’t that right, Alexander?” Gift looked at Alexander.The young multimillionaire shrugged.“If Alexa wanted to bring me here then I don’t see anything wrong with it.” He said and then looked at Alexa “I’m sure she came because she wanted to personally tell the principal that she had accompl
“Alexander, congratulations on your enrollment,” The principal said the first thing he got to Gift’s desk.“Thank you Mr— I mean, Sir” Alexander replied and both men laughed.“Now that I’m a student here, it is understandable that our interaction will have to go through a change. You can’t be as friendly or as cordial as you’ve been to me” Alexander said.The principal placed his hand on the young multimillionaire’s shoulder and said “Says who?”Alexander furrowed his eyebrows.“I’m a grown man and the principal for that matter so I can do whatever I want and that includes being friendly to whoever I decide I want to be friendly with,” the principal said.Everyone understood just how important and influential Alexander was, so there was no way the principal was going to allow school etiquette and formality to affect the very beneficial relationship they had formed.Alexander had also shown himself to be someone very mature and respectful of his elders, so there was no reason to treat
Sitting on the chair behind the desk that was in front of all the Scholar Academy seniors busy taking their college entrance examination was the invigilator sent by the college exams board.“I have no idea who specifically needs to hear this but for those of you too focused to look up at the clock hung over my head right now, you have less than fifteen minutes to finish this paper so that the next one can start,” the invigilator said.He looked at his desk which had multiple black bags on it and were separated into three sections.The left section comprised of three bags was for the exams the students had already written. The right section also had three file bags but they were the upcoming exams while the middle was a flattened bag that housed the exam that was currently being written.“Three more to go, huh?” He monologued in a very low volume and then returned to looking at the students.“Don’t forget that there isn’t going to be any additional extra time. I might have caved in dur
The invigilator groaned.“Outside? But what about the exam and the students—?” He asked but the principal cut him off.“Don’t worry about them. They know well enough to coordinate themselves during important situations like these, isn’t that right?” The principal looked at the students and asked.None of them gave a reply or behaved like he just talked to them.The principal looked back at the invigilator, saying “See? If they weren’t focused on their exam then they would have made a mistake and answered”The invigilator looked at the students and grimaced.“I guess that makes sense”The principal placed his hand on the invigilator’s shoulder, prompting the man to look at him“Besides, we’ll just be a few feet outside the hall so you’ll be able to hear and notice if they try something funny,” the principal said.The invigilator sighed in concession and the principal who had gotten what he wanted dropped his hand from his shoulder.The invigilator looked at the students and said “I’ll
After hearing what Alexander just said, the invigilator was left speechless for a few seconds.He tried processing the statement and it was just so incredibly ridiculous that he couldn’t help himself but laugh.Alexander and the principal looked at each other skeptically for a moment then they looked at the laughing man.“What’s so funny, Mr. Dax?” The principal asked.“My apologies for laughing, Principal. I was just thinking about what—“ the invigilator said and then paused.He looked at Alexander and continued “Hmm, I just realized that I don’t even know your name”“Principal Dave had said it some moments ago but since it looks like you weren’t listening, I guess I’ll have to repeat it. My name is Alexander. Alexander Curry” Alexander said.“Thank you. Anyway, I was just thinking about what you said and I couldn’t help myself but find it funny how casually you said something so impossible.”The principal who shared a similar sentiment with the invigilator was quiet. He also wondere
The invigilator walked into the exam hall and the first thing he did was check if there was any student who had taken advantage of his absence and was cheating.Unfortunately, he didn’t see any such students as none of them were stupid enough to be cheating so blatantly that he would be able to catch them with just a simple scan across the room.‘Looks like the principal was right about them being good students. Good,’ the invigilator thought as he got to his desk and stared at the students.He looked to the left where the doorway was and saw Alexander entering the hall and walking towards him.Immediately after Alexander made his entrance, all the students stopped what they were doing, froze, and looked at him. They also started murmuring and gossiping about Alexander in low volume.“I always knew he was handsome and hot but seeing him this close is a completely different story,” one female student said.“How dreamy. I wish he was all mine” another female student, whose cheeks were
The invigilator returned to the front of the hall and dropped what he carried beside his desk.Alexander looked at the man with a confused grimace that was caused by how ridiculous he found the man’s antics.Who in their right mind would go and carry a desk from the back of the hall by themselves and keep it next to their desk so they could keep an eye on someone? “There you go. Sit down and get ready to start the exam” Alexander groaned and then he did as told.Once the young multimillionaire was sitting like he was supposed to, the invigilator smirked and then went to sit on his chair next to Alexander. He checked the time on his wristwatch and when the time for the end of the current exam reached, he told the students to stop writing and submit their papers.One by one, they all stood from their chairs and went to submit their papers on the invigilator’s desk while also carrying the envelope of the next exam that the man had brought out of his bag and kept on his desk for them.
“Is he seriously writing on the answer script without looking at the question paper?” One of the students asked.“Does he not know what to answer and is just writing random things on his answer script as a way to buy the time? If that’s the case then does it mean that he plans to change his answer script with one that has already been filled with all the right answers?” Another student said.Many of the students thought that Alexander was going to switch the answer script he was writing with one that had the correct answers and they started looking at the invigilator, who was the only one who could allow that to happen, with suspicion.“I thought he was strict and a person with a lot of integrity, but to think that he would allow something like that to happen when he’s been hounding us about hating malpractice. What a shame” Another student said.“Wait, didn’t the principal come and take him outside the hall then both he and that rich guy came back not long after? Does that mean that
