"If you want, I can bring you to the nurse''s office," the director spoke in a hurried tone. Though from his expressions, it seemed he was not in the mood to help.
"No, thank you. I ampletely fine now," Lucian said. Just as the director was about to speak, Lucian added:
"Actually, I wasing here to meet you when I fell unconscious. I had something really important to talk to you about. Do you have time now?"
The director nced down at his hand, but there was no watch there, so he took out his mobile and saw the time. Clicking his tongue, he mumbled:
"Is he not serious about the role? Why isn''t even the main lead here yet? I knew I shouldn''t have allowed that pig to be here just because the principal said so. Tsk, he just wanted to act cool."
Then he looked towards Lucian and spoke: "You can have two minutes of my time. Nothing more than that, and it better be something important."
"That''s enough, so I have a—" Lucian began to speak but noticed that everyone was eavesdropping on their conversation.
So they moved to a corner, and then Lucian began to speak.
"What?!! You want me to change the entire story of the drama now?
There aren''t even three weeks left for the event, and do you even know how much work we have put into it?" The director almost shouted after hearing Lucian''s first sentence.
But as Lucian exined further, he listened carefully, and after some time, he spoke:
"Yes, sir, we will do just that. But are you sure grandfather won''t have any problem with that?"
"You don''t have to worry about that. Let me exin this to the rest of the members. But where are the main leads of the drama?" Lucian asked.
He wanted to exin to everyone since his charm works like magic, making everyone believe everything he says.
"Ava had just gone outside after her rehearsals, but the male lead had not arrived yet. He must be flirting with someone or something," the director said.
"You can throw him out of the club. Don''t worry about the principal; I''ll take care of that. Nowe with me," Lucian said and walked towards the members of the club.
"Hey everyone, he is about to make a big announcement, and with this, I think we will finally be able to obtain a top rank in thepetition," the director said, with a big smile on his face.
To manipte the director, Lucian had used his charm, some money, offered him a great story that is much better than their original story, and some more money.
All thatbined, the director was treating Lucian like a VIP.
"So now we are going to change the story. Not only that, but even the main lead..." Lucian began to exin everything.
"We are changing the main lead? Director, are you sure we can choose him as our main lead?"
"Even the entire story? At this point, won''t we be in trouble? We won''t even be able to practice it properly."
"Will Ava agree to this? She is very serious about this, and you know... her connection with the godfather. If something upsets her, then we would all be in trouble."
All the people showed their dissatisfaction, but by the time Lucian finished, they had adopted a behavior simr to the director.
"W-Woah, is that story truly something you thought of? It feels like a story of a top movie. Are you sure it isn''t giarized?"
"What about the principal? He was the one who rmended the main lead for this drama, I heard. I even heard Liam is a very close family member of his."
"Alright, you don''t have to worry about any of that. We will provide you with the new details. We are going to be the top drama club this time," the director said.
He seemed excited; the only things he was worried about were the principal and Ava.
After talking for a while more, Lucian left the ce.
He wasn''t nning to go to ss now, since his dear teacher was suspicious of him, so he was trying to avoid trouble with him, even taking that surprise test.
"Five are gone, now only two are remaining." Only Baldy and Mason were left now, and Jayden nned something better for them.

Inside the ss, Monk was standing and looking around, but he frowned when he didn''t find Lucian.
He was almost sure that his wife was having an affair, but he couldn''t ask it directly, not after what happened in the hotel.
"Where is Lucian?" Monk asked.
"Sir, he had gone to the drama club. I heard he is participating in the event," Perv said while typing some messages on his mobile.
"Hmph, I have got the sheets of you all. Fine, check your marks," Monk spoke before adding, "Anyone failing will have to stay for extra sses daily."
"Haha, we don''t have to worry about it. Lucian showed us all the answers. I am sure we will get full marks," Pervughed, and Eric nodded.
He too didn''t want to attend the extra ss since he had several part-time jobs.
"Jack, 10. You have to stay for the extra ss," Monk began to announce the marks.
After some time, he said, "Mason, you got only 2 marks. You would not only have to stay for extra sses, but even bring your parents here."
Mason stood up with a frown on his face. Then he took his sheet and saw all the answers were marked wrong.
"But can''t you give me step marks?" Mason asked.
"Step marks for MCQ? Go back to your seat, next, Baldy," Monk spoke.
Mason sat in his seat, sighing. Baldy patted Mason''s shoulder, saying, "It''s okay, but I won''t be able to apany you for the extra sses. My test was a st."
Mason just smirked. He knew all too well how Baldy had given his test by using post-nut rity, so he was really curious if he could get even one right answer.
"You did really good this time, full marks," Monk spoke as he gave a sheet to Baldy, who was frozen in surprise as he took the sheet.
Even if he answered all questions with a lot of thought, even he himself had not thought he could get full marks.
But the ones who knew about his way of answering were even more shocked; they all stared at Baldy, who had a grin on his face.
"See, I told you, I won''t be with you in the extra sses. Boss, maybe it is time that I rece you as the head of the ss; I have long surpassed you. Kekeke," Baldyughed.
Even Perv was looking at him in shock.
"Lucian," Monk announced.
Eric stood up to take his sheet since Lucian wasn''t in the ss.
"He performed very badly in this exam. Tell him to meet meter; he only got 1 mark," Monk spoke.
"..."
"..."
Eric and Perv were both speechless.
After all, they had copied all his answers, and he seemed pretty confident while showing them. If he got one, then they both would be getting one.
"And here goes all my free time. How am I going to y games and watch anime now? Oh no, I won''t even be able to go on a trip this week. Sigh, Lucian, how can this be?" Perv sighed.
"My part-time jobs... I thought he knew the answers. Maybe I need to take a few days off school," Eric sighed too.
"Eric and Parvinder, you both got full marks. You two didn''t cheat, right?" Just then, they both heard Monk''s voice, which surprised them for the third time.
"Wait, what? Are you sure we got full marks?" Perv asked as he almost ran to the table and snatched his sheet.

All of his and Eric''s answers were marked correct, and then he nced at Lucian''s sheet, which had almost all the answers wrongly marked.
"Sir, I think you made a mistake. This isn''t Lucian''s sheet, or maybe someone changed the number," Perv spoke as he moved his gaze around the ss, and it finally stopped on Baldy.
Then Perv walked up to Baldy and took his sheet. After looking over it, he was sure that it was Lucian''s sheet. After a little argument, Monk had no choice but to do as Perv said.
"So you got just 1 mark? Heh, who is going to be the boss now? You would have to attend the extra sses too.
Anyway, meet me after school; I have something important to talk to you," Mason said with a wide grin while rubbing his fist.
"S-Sorry, haha, I was just joking earlier. You didn''t take that seriously, did you? R-Right; it''s been quite long since we had a talk with Lucian, so how about we have a talk with him just like the old times?
Now that everyone else is away, we have to have some fun or we would just be too worried by it all," Baldy said hastily to turn Mason''s attention to Lucian.
"Yeah, I guess we do need to have a talk with him. He seemed strange for quite some time now," Mason said. The past few days had been quite strange.
First, the incident with the pen, which went into strange ces on their bodies; then two of the members in his group disappeared, and their families received those photos. Both of them were still missing.
