Chapter 75 Queenie and Mr. Clancy
"Queenie, winning the city's Outstanding Teachers award means your salary will increase by at least $80!" a female teacher exclaimed with envy.
"$80 is the price in the district. I've heard that in the city, it could increase by $120 per month! Queenie, I'm really envious of you!"
At that moment, a male colleague, who had pursued Queenie before, sarcastically said, "Only $120? Don't make Ms. Lorente laugh. It's not even close to what her husband earns in spare change!"
Queenie smiled lightly and responded skillfully, "That's right. My husband is indeed amazing. But $120 is still money. If I get $120 increase every month, the gap between my salary and yours will widen, won't it?"
The male colleague shut up resentfully.
The other female teachers chuckled silently, unable to stand the sour expression on the male teacher's face.
After shutting down the male teacher, Queenie continued with the student file evaluations.
After completing all the records, she had a sudden idea and made a dating evaluation form for Benoit, labeling it as a school document, and sent it to him.
Benoit received the form and immediately understood that the document was from the school. It made him chuckle.
Did his wife really see him as a grade-schooler?
After opening the form, Benoit quickly filled it out and sent it back to Queenie.
Queenie was momentarily surprised, but she clicked on it and saw that Benoit had made changes to her form and even gave her a score.
And they were all perfect scores!
In an instant, she felt a surge of flirting from him.
After filling in a few numbers, she too sent the form to Benoit.
Benoit couldn't wait to open it, but in just a moment, his face darkened.
Tender-heartedness: +1 point (Note: Still early in the relationship, need further observation)
Considerate: +1 point (Note: Still early in the relationship, need further observation)
Honesty: -10 points (Note: Not honest, tells lies frequently with a somewhat cunning disposition, needs further evaluation)
Thinking: -10 points (Note: Filled with perverted thoughts)
Obedience: -10 points (Note: Doesn't listen at all, completely ignores others' rejections)
After seeing the overall score, Benoit wanted to cry.
One point added for each positive trait, and a deduction of ten points for each negative trait!
When would he ever be able to turn things around?
Queenie felt quite pleased after sending the score sheet.
He couldn’t expect her to give him high scores just because he gave her full marks.
No way!
Last night, she clearly said no, but he still didn't listen.
The first time, it was psychological therapy. But what was it the second time?
He actually had the nerve to mention consolidation therapy!
He was always so improper.
How did she ever take him for a respectable elder before?!
Just as Queenie was silently criticizing him, her phone vibrated, and the screen lit up.
"I'll arrive at Coast City at 3 p.m. today. Come pick me up."
It was a message from Barbara Clancy on WhatsApp.
Pollard's sister-in-law. Her former almost-sister-in-law!
Looking at the imperative tone in the WhatsApp message, Queenie felt a bit uncomfortable.
She replied to Barbara Clancy. "I have classes in the afternoon. I can't come to pick you up."
Soon, Barbara Clancy responded with a voice message. "Then just take the day off!"
That tone sounded so entitled, bringing back many unpleasant memories for Queenie.
Barbara Clancy often traveled around the world.
Every time she returned to Coast City, Lilith would make Queenie go pick her up.
Even though Queenie didn't have a car herself and there were three or four drivers in Clancy Villa, Lilith always asked Queenie to borrow a car and pick up Barbara Clancy, saying that Barbara Clancy liked her. She liked Queenie.
Queenie couldn't warm up to Lilith and Barbara Clancy's audacious way of delegating tasks.
"Sorry, I can't take the day off. I'm busy."
After sending the WhatsApp message, Queenie didn't look at her phone again and even forgot about it.
It wasn't until Benoit came to pick her up at the school gate after work that she remembered, but she didn't think much of it.
After rejecting, Barbara Clancy would surely figure out her own way to get back.
After all, she was a grown woman.
Queenie walked towards Benoit's car. Today was their first date. Considering Benoit's leg condition, they had decided to go for barbecue. As soon as the car door opened, a woman rushed over.
"Queenie, why didn't you come to pick me up?" The woman's voice clearly carried annoyance as she glanced at the person inside the car and exclaimed, "Uncle Three, what are you doing here?!"
To their surprise, the person speaking was none other than Pollard's younger sister, Barbara Clancy.
