Chapter 440: Chapter495

i Chapter 0495 “Two,” I answered. “We lost the other two from last year. So far, we have you two, Rachel if she ever wants to show up, Kayla, Skylar, and me. To be a full committee we need at least 8 members, but ideally, I’d like 10.” We stayed silent for a short while; I was so lost in my own thoughts that I didn’t realize Headmaster Prescott was approaching our table.

“Good afternoon,” Prescott said as she stopped at our table. “How’s the recruitment going?” “We got one more person,” I told her. “We need at least 2 more.” “Actually, Iwanted to talk to you about that,” Bredy blurted, making us all look at him.My stomach clenched because I knew exactly what he was going to say. I just didn’t think now was the right time.

“I’m listening,” Prescott said, eyeing him carefully.

“It’s about Sarah...” Her smile shifted and now she was looking at him pointedly.

“What about Sarah?” She asked.

“I know she’s banned from any extra curriculums or activities. But I don’t think that’s fair. I think she should still be part of something, or else she’s never going to work as a team. She needs to learn to get va RRR

think we should have her be a member,” Brody spoke with such confidence that I was impressed.

Prescott raised her brows at him, and I heard Becca gasping at his words.

“Sarah caused a lot of issues for many students,” Prescott reminded him. “What makes you think she can be trusted.” “I guess I just have faith in her,” Brody replied. “I think this would be good for her and it'll teach her that we work better as a team. Plus, I think it would be a good punishment for her to work under Lila. Don’t you think?” Prescott looked at me and I felt my face warming under the intensity of her stare.

“And you’ve spoken about this together?” She asked, still staring at me.

“Brody brought it up to me earlier,” I confessed.

“And you find this to be a good idea as well?” I'was quiet for a moment as I allowed her question to settle in the air between us. I glanced at Brody who refused to meet my eyes and then I looked at Becca who was pale as a ghost. I knew she didn’t like this idea whatsoever; I also knew she wouldn't be the only one.

Ilooked back at Prescott and squared my shoulders; trying to appear 24

Wet as confident as I could.

“If I'm honest, I'm not really sure if Sarah can be trusted. But I do trust Brody and if he thinks giving her a chance is a good idea, then I suppose no harm could come from it. If she oversteps, we can always kick her off the committee.” Prescott was quiet for a moment as she thought about this and then she soon nodded; I felt Brody relaxing beside me.

“She can be part of the committee, but she won’t participate in any school events. Understood?” Prescott said firmly, making us all nod immediately, even Becca.

“Thank you so much,” Brody said, bowing his head in respect to her.

Before she left, she turned to me. ) “Oh, that reminds me. I have a classroom for you,” she said, giving me a fond smile.

She reached into her briefcase pulling out a small baggie with a bunch I of little keys in them. She placed the baggie on the table and slid it toward me.

The baggie read: RM 210.

“You're giving us an entire classroom?” I asked, gawking at her.

She nodded.

“The student committee is going to need a real place to work,” she 3/4

&J answered. “You are in charge of maintaining it.” ~ “Thank you so much,” I said, hardly able to contain my excitement.

Both Brody and Becca took a key from the baggie.

“When you get more members, send me the list so I can put itin my records,” Headmaster Prescott said, giving me a wink before she turned and walked away.

“I can’t believe we get a whole classroom,” I said, staring at the baggie with disbelief.

“I can’t believe you didn’t tell me we are adding Sarah to the committee,” Becca said, narrowing her eyes at me. “Everybody else is not going to be happy.” I felt myself sliding down my seat in defeat; I knew she was right. ’'m not sure what I'm going to do.
