Chapter 273

"Audrey, kids getting into a scuffle now and then? Totally normal stuff. Don't overthink it," Ms. Scott advised her again, sounding extra sincere. "Yeah, got it," Elaine replied politely, nodding as if she truly agreed. But honestly, that was just lip service. If she really just ignored it all, then what was the point of even being a teacher? As far as she was concerned, teachers needed to stand their ground. Elaine never really thought of herself as overly strict, but in this case? She was ready to get her hands dirty. After she got home, Elaine dove straight into some serious internet sleuthing on Zachary and Dylan. And no, she didn't use Wikipedia or anything basic like that—she had her own methods. Within minutes, she had all the info lined up. Zachary's dad turned out to be the CEO of Oceanis Maritime Group. Solid background, no surprise there. But Dylan? That one was wild—his dad was the leader of the Crimson Serpents. Them going at each other? Yep, definitely a clash of titans.
