Making the second male lead fall in love with me, the villainess Chapter 227: 2 Weeks Before Summer Break I

“Good morning everyone. First of all, I wish to congratulate all our senior students for finishing their final exams last Thursday. Please, let us give them a round of applause.” Geoffrey said as he started the last formal student council meeting for the school year.

Everyone gave them a warm applause, some even cheering. 

“Whoohoo! In two weeks, you’ll officially be graduates!”

“Congrats guys!” 

Artemis, Diether, Joan, and Diana were all smiles. They were having mixed feelings, relief that everything is through, excited for graduation, nervous as they will soon be entering real society, and nostalgic as they will be leaving the school they spent 3 years in.

Geoffrey cleared his throat to garner everyone’s attention, “Again, congratulations to our seniors. Moving on, today we have 4 matters for discussion. First, the sample questionnaires for the final exams. Second, updates on the year end ball. Third, the last visit to the orphanage. And lastly, the establishment of the Special Appropriations Committee. Representative Gina?”

“Good morning everyone, so on the copies of the sample questionnaires, me and Mary already have them ready. On Monday, we will place them outside the library like usual.” Gina reported.

Geoffrey nodded, “Thank for that, now Representative Joan?” 

“On the year end ball, everything has already been arranged for. Currently, the only thing left for the seniors to prepare for is the opening dance. Starting next week, we would be busy with rehearsals for that.” 

“Wahhhhh!!!!! I’m so jealous! The first time I saw the senior students do that last year, ughh I’ve been dreaming for our turn. Next year it will be us!” Mary exclaimed as she looked at Gina, the two of them grinning.

“Yes! Gods, I love the year end ball. Makes all the underclassman dream of it when it’s their turn to graduate.” Gina responded equally excited.

Diana smiled, “Yes, next year it will be your turn, too bad I won’t be able to see it.” 

Serena looked at them curious. Would it be like a cotillion? From how they talked about it, it seems it would be that way. Then again, she will see it herself come the ball.

Geoffrey trusting the seniors did not see any other purpose to delve into the topic, thus be chose to proceed with the next agenda.

“Alright, now on our last visit to the orphanage, Vice President Artemis?”

“On this matter, Diether and I have already decided on the souvenirs or parting gifts to be given to the children and the facilitators of the orphanage. However, the items are not yet ready, but now that our exams are over, we have more time in our hands to finalize everything.

Geoffrey nodded, there were still more than 2 weeks before their last visit. More than enough time. “Thank you. Now, on the last matter, recall that in our previous meeting in the orphanage, representative Serena suggested that we establish another body to manage the funds from ‘We are the world’. I have brought this up to the school dignitaries, and the outcome was that the school suggested the establishment of a committee which would focus on the appropriations of the funds from ‘we are the world’. 

The committee would be made up of 3 students and would have one teacher to supervise them. The teacher to be assigned has already been decided and that would be teacher Grace Astoria. While the student leader would be Representative Leonard as previously agreed.”

Douglas, ever the curious annoying fly that he was asked, “How does one become a member of that committee?”

“That would be decided upon by Leonard with Teacher Grace’s supervision.” Geoffrey replied.

“Then how about the transparency?”

Serena, offended for Leonard and annoyed with Douglas’ face answered, “well, I don’t know why it matters to you that much when you did not have any contribution for this project.”

Diether could not help but exclaim “Ooohhh! Burn!!!!” as he laughed. Even he was already annoyed with Douglas.

The girls all snickered. They do hate him after his sexist comment last time.

Leonard raised his left brow at Douglas, as if daring him to refute Serena’s words. 

Douglas’ face turned red. He wanted to lash out at Serena, but Leonard who was taller and have a larger build than himself was sitting beside her. Also, everyone was on her side. 

Geoffrey pretended that he did not hear what Serena said as he tried to hide his laugher by coughing. “Anyway, the Special Appropriations Committee, aside from having to be supervised by a teacher, would still need to update the student council regarding their activities thus the issue on transparency. So, does anyone have a question regarding this matter?”

Serena raised her hand, “The profit for the last 3 weeks has already been transferred to me by Mr. Easton. To whom should I hand them over?”

“Since we are almost at the end of the school year, I suggest that you hand it over to Leonard as he’s the leader of said committee. Then at the beginning of the student council meeting next year, we would invite him to join us to give us an updated report. If that is alright with everyone?”

Everyone trusted them, aside from that, not one of them wanted to do extra work during the summer, thus they just nodded their head.

Geoffrey smiled. “Alright, since we’re through with that, are they any matters you wish to discuss before we end our meeting for today?”

Everyone, except for Douglas that is, smiled and shook their head. 

“Since there are none, then this ends our last formal student council meeting for the year. Let’s all see each other again during the year end ball, then the orphanage after. It has been great working with everyone here.” 

Then they all started leaving. 

“Serena,” Geoffrey called to Serena.

“Yes? Sorry I have to go, my friends and I are going to have our song recorded today at Columbia’s.” She informed him quickly, well, better just tell him that so that she can leave immediately.

“I see. Then, good luck.” Geoffrey replied as he gave her a smile. 

Serena appreciating that he did not attempt to ask if he can come along smiled back, “Okay, thanks, bye!”
