Rebirth of the Deadly Beauty novel Chapter 58

As soon as Harvey walked into view, the students straightened up and greeted him respectfully.

The girl who had been the most vocal tried to explain, "Mr. Coleman, we—"

However, before she could get a word in, Harvey cut her off. "I heard you loud and clear! So, you wanted her out of First Academy?"

He walked up to the girl. "Since when did you get to call the shots here?"

The girl, who had been so brash a moment ago, shrank under the headmaster's intimidating gaze, too scared to speak.

Harvey's gaze swept across the rest of the students, cold and unforgiving.

"I can't believe you're all ganging up on a fellow student on the very first day of school! Do you think this is the standard of conduct at First Academy? If anyone is unworthy of being here, it's not Yolanda—it's each and every one of you standing here!"

Harvey then pointed to a random boy and asked, "Tell me, what's the first line of our motto?"

"It's… unity and friendship," the boy answered nervously.

"Have you upheld that?" Harvey's cold voice made the students shrink back in fear.

Then, he pointed at several students and said, "You, you, and you—clean the bathrooms for a week after school and hand in a written apology to my office. Any objections?"

How could Yolanda, of all people, be given a personal tour of the campus by Harvey? Even the top students of the year didn't receive such special treatment.

With all eyes on them, Harvey and Yolanda walked toward the classroom building. It took a moment for the people standing there to process what had just happened.

"Why's Mr. Coleman being so nice to her?"

"That hideous thing's been in juvie and has a criminal record! Plus, she was always the bottom-of-the-barrel student in junior high. Who does she think she is?"

"I can't believe a good-for-nothing like her is going to First Academy. What a joke!"
