“I’m sorry. Without the principal’s orders, no one is allowed to check the surveillance cameras.”

At this moment, the security guard on the right saw that these people weren’t here to cause trouble for them, so he walked out of the surveillance room.

“This…”

The invigilator hesitated for a moment. He only wanted Adams, who didn’t know how to respect teachers, to get out of the school. He didn’t want to make a big deal out of it and let the principal know.

After all, he himself was actually a little guilty. He was the one who went to find trouble with Adams first.

However, looking at the many students behind him who supported him, as well as Adams’ blank and frightened eyes, a sneer rose in his heart:

‘Hmph, now you know fear?’

‘If you had surrendered earlier and bowed to me, such a thing wouldn’t have happened!’

‘Now all the students in the school support me. Even the dark ones have become white ones.’

‘Furthermore, looking at your panicked expression, you definitely cheated!’

‘Then, don’t blame me!’

After he was done with his calculations, the invigilator made up his mind to look for the principal to adjust the surveillance cameras. He would make Adams lose all his face and then get out of the school.

However, he still showed a hesitant expression.

“This… This isn’t good.”

“My original intention was to let Adams realize his mistake.”

“As for whether he apologizes to me or not, I don’t care.”

“If this goes to the principal, won’t everyone in the school know?”

“That’s not good. If that’s the case, Adams will have no choice but to quit school.”

“I… I don’t want to lose any of my students…”

The invigilator who was originally very fierce in class appeared to be so magnanimous and selfless in front of all the students in the school.

“What a good teacher!”

“Even at this time, he still cares about his students.”

“That Adams, he should be ashamed of himself!”

“He was caught cheating and refused to admit it. The teacher only wanted him to admit his mistake, but he actually wanted the teacher to resign. This kind of student is really not acceptable!”

“I disdain to be classmates with such a person. Teacher, don’t mind him. This kind of student should get out of the school!”

“Right! Get out of the school! Get out of the school!”

“Adams, get out of the school!”

When the surrounding students heard the invigilator’s words, they became even more excited.

Now that things had developed to this point, even Adams’ classmates believed the invigilator’s words 100%.

Even they felt that Adams must have cheated to get such a high score.

After all, Adams’ usual results were always in the last few places!

How could he have gotten more than 80 points all of a sudden?!

Right now, only Jessica and Peter believed in Adams and supported him.

“It’s impossible for Adams to cheat. I believe in his character!”

“Even if Adams’ results aren’t good, he wouldn’t have chosen to cheat!”

“Jessica, you’re still defending him. I really don’t know what kind of drug he gave you.”

“It’s already a done deal for Adams to cheat. There’s no turning back!”

“If you don’t believe me, look at his expression!”

Gail’s face was filled with contempt and anger. He really didn’t know why Jessica would be so madly infatuated with Adams.

She was even willing to stand on the opposite side of the entire school for him!

After Jessica heard Gail’s words, she turned to look at Adams’ face. His face was filled with panic, like a thief who had been caught by the police.

“No, it’s not possible. It’s impossible for Adams to cheat…”

After seeing Adams’ expression, Jessica’s tears were about to come out, swirling in her eyes.

She would rather believe that she had cheated than believe that Adams would do such a thing.

Was this still the kind, gentle, and sunny Adams in her memories who was willing to sacrifice himself for others?

Just as Jessica was about to cry, Adams walked to her side, held her hand, and whispered in her ear,

“Don’t cry. I’m just pretending.”

“!!!”

Jessica’s eyes widened to the maximum when she heard Adams say that!

“He’s… Pretending…”

Jessica looked at Adams, who had a panicked expression on his face but was holding her hand. Her heart instantly calmed down.

“I told you he wouldn’t cheat…”

For some reason, in the face of almost the entire school’s crusade and Adams’ own words, Jessica did not hesitate to believe Adams’ words.

‘I’m sorry, Jessica. I really did cheat.’

Adams expressed his apology to her in his heart.

However, from the beginning to the end, he did not feel that this was a big deal.

It was just cheating. Why was Jessica so nervous? She almost cried.

‘Since you dared to make Jessica cry, you should enjoy the slap!’

Adams sneered, but he was still nervous.

He didn’t expect it to come to this.

Initially, he just wanted to give that idiot invigilator a small slap in the face. He didn’t expect such a big incident to happen.

But since it had already happened, he would play along to the end!

‘If I don’t slap your face, I won’t be Adams!’

“Teacher, quickly go and call the principal!”

“That’s right, teacher. Pull up the surveillance footage and the truth will be clear!”

“Quickly take a look at the surveillance footage so that this shameless scum can get out of our school as soon as possible!”

“Teacher, you don’t have to pity this kind of student at all. There’s no need for that!”

“He brought this upon himself by making such a scene today. There’s no need to pity him at all!”

“That’s right! Teacher, if you don’t go and look for the principal, I will help you look for him!”

The group of students at the back was agitated. They were all shouting loudly to go and look for the principal to check the surveillance cameras, so that this kind of student would be punished.

“Sigh, alright…”

“Although I love my students very much, I really can’t teach a student like Adams who cheats in class, refuses to admit it, and doesn’t know how to respect his teacher.”

The invigilator shook his head helplessly as if he was extremely regretful and hated himself for not being able to save this lost soul.

After hearing the invigilator’s words, the surrounding students erupted into a heated discussion:

“Wu wu, the teacher’s heart is really too kind!”

“Even now, he’s still thinking of a bad student like Adams!”

“That fellow Adams really should kneel down and thank the teacher and apologize to him!”

“Our school is really lucky to have such a teacher!”

…

Listening to the discussions of the students and their praise of him, the invigilator was very proud in his heart, but his face still had the image of a super good teacher.
