New York, in St. Sylvan Girls' High School, a private college on the Manhattan peninsula, 12th-grade students are taking a boring chemistry experiment course. Eight?One?Chinese.net?≥≠≈≥=≤=≈Everyone wears protective goggles on their eyes. Most of the students here come from wealthy families. After all, the annual tuition fee of St. undergraduate fees.
But Nancy couldn't listen to a word at the moment. At the moment, she was not focused on studying at all. After all, it is not anyone who can cheer up the next day after experiencing a broken relationship.
"Hiss~~!" The pager in the pocket of Nancy's school uniform suddenly rang, and she immediately took out the pager with great anticipation to see if it was a message from her ex-boyfriend to change his mind. When he opened it, he found that it was news from his best friend, Angela.
"What's the matter with you and Daniel?" Angela asked in the message.
"It's nothing. It's just a little conflict, maybe we'll get back together in a few days!" Nancy replied casually.
"But why did I see Daniel kissing that bitch Katie on the lawn this morning?" Angela's message was delivered again.
"Oh! BITch!" Nancy lost control of her emotions and yelled casually. Her cry made the classroom instantly quiet, and Nancy raised her head, and she saw that everyone in the classroom was staring at her dumbfounded, including the teacher in class.
"Nancy, what did you just say?" the teacher asked angrily.
"It's nothing, Mrs. Louis! I just... I just..." Nancy hesitated and didn't know how to answer.
"Oh, okay! Actually, we all heard it. Well, Nancy, you know what to do next. Please leave here and go to the principal's office by yourself!" Teacher Louis said with some headaches.
"I'm sorry, Mrs. Louis!" Nancy said inwardly, "Damn!", then reluctantly packed her schoolbag and left the classroom silently.
Nancy pushed open the door of the classroom and walked towards the principal's office step by step with heavy steps. At this moment, Nancy's mood was broken. Although a swear word in class is not a big deal, but in St. Siroland Girls’ High School with strict rules, almost every behavior that does not comply with the school’s regulations will be recorded. When some students’ bad records accumulate to After a certain level, what awaits them may be treatment such as dropping out of school or being expelled from school. Unfortunately, Nancy has just let herself meet this standard.
...
"Dingling...jingling..." A crisp old-fashioned phone ring interrupted Nancy's father Thomas, who was buried in the computer screen, and he had to stop what he was doing and pick up the phone .
"Hey, didn't I tell you not to call me when I'm busy?" Thomas said angrily. At this moment, Thomas was in a very bad mood, even terrible.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Thomas, your daughter's school called and told you to go there as soon as possible!" The secretary replied aggrievedly.
When Thomas heard clearly that his daughter Nancy had ruined her last hope in St. Sylvan Women's High School, he couldn't help feeling physically and mentally exhausted. He leaned back on his seat with his hands on his face He let out a long sigh, today was a terrible day.
As an investor working on Wall Street, Thomas manages a large-scale fund, and the main investment areas of this fund are concentrated in the field of telecommunications and communication technology. However, in recent years, with the popularization of telephones, this fund has The growth of the field began to decline, which greatly affected the profitability of Thomas' fund. He had just talked with the head of aT&T on the phone, expressing his dissatisfaction and anger unreservedly and mercilessly He told the head of the largest telecommunications network in the United States.
Although Thomas is just a fund manager, the industry often determines the height of a person.
In the eyes of Wall Street bankers, those executives of big companies who seem to have a bright future and receive sky-high salaries are just part-timers. After all, Rothschild said: "The hands that give money are always higher than those who take money!"
Since entering this business, Thomas has a deep understanding of the meaning of this sentence. The executives of those big companies come to Wall Street almost every quarter to report their work to the bankers here. Even a young man who has just graduated and joined here often has the opportunity to meet the leaders of these industries . And all this is determined by the economic system of this country.
But while Thomas could direct his anger at the entrepreneurs, he couldn't direct it at his own children and clients. Especially my own daughter, for some reason, after entering puberty, she became Thomas' nightmare. In order for his daughter to have a bright future, Thomas struggled to send Nancy to St. Sylvan Girls' High School. But now it's about to fall short.
After struggling for a long time, Thomas finally decided to come to the school to fight for his daughter. He still has one last hope. Ms. Amber, the principal here, used to be Thomas' teacher. Thomas hoped that he could use this relationship to let The school withdrew its order.
"Boom~~dong~~dong!" Thomas came to the school, but instead of looking for his daughter, he knocked on the door of the principal's office, Ms. Amber, and walked in, saying with an embarrassed face: "Ms. Amber ,I hope……"
"No! No! No! You have to understand me, Thomas, your daughter is simply too difficult to deal with. If I let her stay in the school, it will definitely ruin the school's reputation. I can't afford this responsibility at all!" Amber The teacher directly blocked what Thomas was going to say.
"Can't you give Nancy another chance?" Thomas asked sincerely.
"Oh, Thomas, you know this is the most demanding college in New York. Even in any other school, falling in love is not a big deal at all, but being expelled is a big deal in Saint-Cylan! I I can give you a week of grace to contact other schools, this is already the biggest concession I can make!" Principal An Boer replied regretfully.
"Oh! Wait a minute, love, what do you mean? Isn't St. Siroland Girls' High School a fully closed girls' school? How can my daughter be in love?" Thomas really didn't know that his daughter was in love. The reason why my daughter came here is to hope that the fully enclosed environment here can allow her to study with peace of mind, instead of wasting energy on boring love affairs.
"I think you're absolutely right, but without this!" Principal Amber put a pager in front of Thomas.
