Cordelia nodded and said, "Sure, Irene. You can join me. Anyone else?"A couple more students eagerly volunteered to join Cordelia in her car, leaving Benjamin feeling a bit annoyed but not expressing it. At the end, Cordelia only chose one person among to join Azuka. Taking a look at Benjamin, Cordelia could see the frown on his face, so she asked, "Benjamin, is everything alright?"Benjamin nodded and replied, "I'm fine," but he continued giving Cordelia some light frowns.Cordelia shook her head and said, "You'll also join me in the car, making three. The rest, please use the school bus.”"Okay, Ms. We'll do that," they all responded. Everyone picked up their bags and walked out of the classroom.Now left with Benjamin, Irene, and the other lady, Cordelia suggested, "Let's go out now. We'll move when the buses start to move."Irene nodded, and they walked out with the other lady, Cordelia following. Benjamin quickened his steps and whispered, "Why did you have to let Irene even j
"Wow, Maverick came with his girlfriend.""Aww, she's looking beautiful. Money is good.”Dorothy walked forward, radiating confidence in her stylish swimming costume. With each step, she shook off any trace of doubt, carrying herself with pride. The whispers only fueled her confidence, and she wore a proud smile. Benjamin had been staring at both of them amusingly. "He's able to live a luxury lifestyle because of me. He should thank God because the day I strike and take the hotel, he'll go to trenches," he thought with a smile.At that moment, Maverick and Dorothy walked forward and noticed Benjamin, prompting frowns from both."So, this shameless guy is still alive?" Dorothy chuckled at Benjamin, but he chose not to reply.She continued, smiling, "Have you seen my boyfriend's new car? Something I would have never felt if I was with you. Hahaha."Her words elicited laughter among those who heard, especially those present during the night of Maverick's proposal. They understood the co
Cordelia shook her head, hugging Benjamin tightly in front of everyone. "Please don't do this, please," she pleaded, holding onto Benjamin's hand.Benjamin's heart calmed instantly, and he nodded in agreement. Cordelia turned towards the sports teacher, asserting, "Stop this. You're too old for this. Why will you be fighting with a student?" The sports teacher stopped and sneered, saying, "What do you mean, Ms. Winslow? Were you not present when he hit me? Didn't you see it?" he asked angrily."Of course, didn't you hit him first? You hit him, he told you to stop, not hitting you. You didn't stop and hit him a second time. He still asked you to stop, and you hit him again, making him spit blood. You still didn't stop and called him a bastard, cursing that his mother didn't train him well. If I may ask, is that a good thing to do as a teacher?" Cordelia also asked coldly.The sports teacher was stunned. "So, you're defending a mere student over your colleague teacher?" he asked."Of
Cordelia walked away. Five teachers and five students came forward; they were the ones in the swimming competition. Both Cordelia and the sports teacher were included in the competition – three male teachers and two female teachers, the same as the students.The students started changing into their swimming costumes. The two male teachers headed towards the beach hut to change, creating a brief pause in the anticipation. After they returned, Cordelia and the other madam also entered the hut, leaving everyone waiting for their turn.The suspense heightened until, finally, both Cordelia and the madam walked out. A collective gasp echoed across the beach as all eyes widened, especially Cordelia's.Cordelia had changed into a vibrant swimsuit that accentuated her figure. The fabric draped elegantly across her frame, revealing a tasteful blend of confidence and grace. The swimsuit, adorned with a floral pattern, showcased her beautiful thighs, adding to the allure of her beach-ready look.
"What? A shark?" The exclamation rippled through the crowd as everyone's attention focused on the area where the teachers and students were swimming. To their surprise and dismay, a shark, its fin gracefully cutting through the water, was slowly gliding towards the unsuspecting group."No, this is bad. It's near them. Let's alert them," someone urgently suggested. In an instant, a wave of concern swept through the onlookers, and a collective decision was made to warn Cordelia and the rest."Shark! Shark! Get out of the water!""Guys, there's a shark, swim back!""Cordelia, look out! Shark alert!""Everyone, back to the shore, there's a shark!"The panicked screams echoed across the beach, a chorus of urgent warnings as the students desperately tried to alert Cordelia and the teachers to the looming danger in the water.Despite the frantic warnings and screams from the students on the shore, the urgent alerts couldn't reach the ears of the swimmers in the middle of the water. The dista
"Is he trying to be a hero or something?""He's going to regret this. Sharks are no joke.""He's going to get himself killed. What a foolish move.”Unfazed by the skeptical comments, Benjamin continued his determined run towards the water. The echoes of doubt and mockery faded into the background as his singular focus remained on reaching Cordelia.Meanwhile, the others had successfully reached the shore, their escape from the looming danger almost complete. However, Cordelia, still in the water, struggled with each stroke as fatigue took its toll, her once agile swimming slowing with every passing minute. Splash!” Benjamin threw himself into the water immediately he got close. The moment Benjamin threw himself into the water, it became apparent that he lacked the proficiency in swimming. Panic gripped him as he floundered, struggling to stay afloat.Wow!” Everyone was surprised seeing what was happening to Benjamin. "Is he serious? He can't even swim!""This is like a comedy show.
Gasps and terrified whispers spread through the onlookers as the shark approached Cordelia, its jaws poised to strike."Oh no, someone has to do something!"I can't watch this, it's too much!""Benjamin, please do something!""Ms. Winslow, be careful!""Is there no one to help her?!”Cordelia who knew there was nothing she could do finally took a last sad look at Benjamin before she closed her eyes waiting for what was going to happen. The shark was about to finally take its first bite when Benjamin, who had gotten forward, pulled Cordelia with great force.Gap! The shark closed its jaws, missing Cordelia.Boom! Benjamin didn't waste time and delivered two strong blows with his strength to the shark.Awww! The shark screamed, feeling the pain.Bang! Turning around, Benjamin kicked the shark with all his might.Wow!”Whispers among the students filled the air with admiration for Benjamin's unexpected bravery, especially from the business students who found pride in his resilience."Di
Cordelia covered her mouth, shaking her head as she uttered, "No, no, nothing will happen, as long as there's no blood, Benjamin is fine." She struggled to maintain composure. As students around her started whispering, suggesting the worst, Cordelia couldn't bear the negativity.Attempting to silence the pessimistic voices, Cordelia lashed out, "Shut up! Don't you have a sense of reasoning? How can you wish for death for your fellow student? Are you alright?" The students fell silent under her stern gaze.As the sports teacher tried to assert his perspective, Cordelia interrupted with a mocking clap. "Clap for yourself, sir. Can you hear yourself? Aren't you a coward? You were running like a fish escaping danger, while I was trying my best to help the others out. Benjamin came inside to also help me without thinking of anything, but you're here spewing some kind of nonsense?" The sports teacher found himself a bit embarrassed by Cordelia's rebuke."How can I wait to sacrifice myself?
