Chapter 182
Selene stepped into Class Z. She arrived a tut early, her gaze fleeting o
ver Kaylee’s empty seat with a hint of annoyance.
She had just taken out the textbooks she needed for the morning’s classes and arranged them neatly on her desk when she saw Flor and Kaylee walking in together, laughing and chatting
“How’s the draft going? Selene asked Kaylee Her eyebrows knitted in frustration.
The previous speech draft was so poorly written, and yet Kaylee had the audacity to arrive at school so late and still seem so cheerful “It’s done!” Kaylee, a bit nervous at the mention of the speech draft, quickly pulled a notebook from her backpack and handed it over to
Selene
After the previous two attempts, Selene had almost given up hope on Kaylee. She was a student from a small town who lacked talent Selene picked up the notebook, initially glancing over it with impatience, but then her focus sharpened Surprise and admiration replaced the expression on her face.
Selene read through the entire document, her eyes filled with shock and awe. This draft was exactly what she had been looking for!
The writing was powerful and grand, starting from the basics and deepening into clear logic, peeling layer by layer the rapid development of new technologies and the internet. It discussed both the positive and negative impacts and even boldly predicted the future world
Not only that, but it also included a wealth of data to support the central idea.of the piece.
tato
you write this?” Selene looked at Kaylee, comparing the work in front of her with what she had seen the day before.
“It had some revisions from a friend.” Kaylee didn’t mention that this friend was Flora.
Flora didn’t want anyone to know she had written this speech draft. Who wrote it wasn’t important to Selene anyway, as long as the speech draft met her standards.
“It’s very well written. Is it finished?”
“No, there’s still half left to write.”
Selene handed the notebook back to Kaylee, speaking kindly, “Finish the rest of it. This can be the final draft, just print it out and hand it to me before you leave school today.”
No sooner had Selene finished speaking than Flora, who had been leisurely sitting at her desk, said, “She can’t write the second half.”
“What do you mean?” Selene glanced at Flora, displeased. She hadn’t helped at all and was now causing a scene.
“I really cant write it Kaylee mustered the courage to relay the conversation she had with Flora to Selene. “You said when you assigned the tasks that I was to write the speech with May. My part is done. The rest should be written by May. I’ve already laid out the entire framework. It’s just about concluding it. It’s not a big deal for her.
May had been paying close attention to the discussion. Selene was finally satisfied with the draft, and she was relieved, thinking the task was finally near completion.
She hadn’t expected Kaylee to pull such a move.
May stood up abruptly, slamming her Spanish book onto the desk with a fierce look, “Kaylee, what are you trying to say? Am I not putting in effort? I’ve also been researching and gathering data online.
Selene frowned, finding their argument embarrassing. “I don’t care how you two divide the work. I just want the speech. By this aftemoon, I want to see the complete draft”
Then, the started reading her book, and Kaylee returned to her seat with her notebook.
May was frustrated. She had thought Kaylee was an easy target, but the usually compliant little wallflower had suddenly stood up for
She wanted to confront Kaylee, but then the teacher arrived, and she had no choice but to let it go.
Throughout the morning. May kept an eye on Kaylee, noticing that she, indeed, wasn’t working on the speech dreft anymore. May’s face turned darker than a thundercloud
Kaylee was always responsible, and May couldnt believe she would end up doing nothing in the end. She decided to let things fall where they may
