"Whatever the case ram We're already here and the children must have their expectations already"
"Leonard is right Sir Although we can not meet their expectations, we can still be of some help" Artemis seconded

Then Emily spoke with conviction, "There can be We can provide them with teachers and other educational e, they can find ee "
Serena looked at her with a raised eyebrow Seriously?
"That will be a little too costly given that we are working on a budget" Ti to embarrass her replied
"I believe that Ms Evans has a point Although discouraged, we can still do a fundraising event"
Timothy looked at Geoffrey aardly, he is the crown prince so…
That hen Serena couldn't stop herself anyh they did have some point, this proved that they were still children who haven't seen raduates, who can't even get a job
It is not that she thinks that education is not i about children who does not have strong enough foundation in the acade in a year If they kne to read, write, and do basic mathematics, then that is already passable Besides, in this era, how et lucky? Sometimes, one must learn how to put food on his/ her own plate first
"I have to disagree Sir Tiht, their issue is a national concern…"
Before she could continue, Emily violently reacted "What do you mean? That we should just leave the children alone? Do you not have even a bit of e to slap her silly What rong with her? She was not even done talking

"and ah… that's it? I' any sense?"
No one answered for a long time, it was very aard until Charlton spoke in support
"I coree with Representative Serena That plan is brilliant" Then he sh she is my sister, this is not biasness, but my real opinion"
Then, other students started voicing their agreehed as he nodded and said, "Sorry, I never thought that a student can think that far ahead But I do see your point Fine, let's do it that way then Does everyone agree?"
The rest of the students nodded their heads as a knock was heard, signaling that the children were ready

Serena wanted to facepal down What did she just do? She should have just kept her
Everyone except for her, Via, Leonard, Charlton and Kylo has already left to go to the dining hall
"Hey, don't feel eenius It's just that everyone's brain has short circuited, because, well, no one even thought of that idea" Via, who sat beside Serena, tried to coree with Via, don't be embarrassed I even feel proud of you" Leonard said
Kylo started laughing, "Well, I just think no one can believe that you just slammed Geoffrey, who supported that idea, to his face and provided a better one in less than a minute! I salute you!"
Charlton chuckled; he saw another side of Serena today She was so cute, talking very fast like that, spouting her idea like, well, like a nerd Now, she was embarrassed, he finds it cute too He wanted to cory, because he really wanted to laugh
