Chapter 650

It became clear for all to see that the alumni of Seaton High School were all extraordinary people. They were much more powerful and imposing compared to the alumni of Crestfield High School. The crowd were already placing guesses regarding the identities of the important newcomers and were ultimately shocked by the reveal.

The newcomers were all people who wielded extreme authority and power such as Vashington Mining Group's president, Donnie Slate. There was also Sonya Heathers, the president of Illustrious Stocks that was valued at over 100 billion dollars, and Rufus Shazam, the president of Shazam Electric Company that was worth more than 300 billion dollars. The founder of Millicent Group was also amongst their ranks, as well as Grandeur Corporation's vice president, Emilio Kane, and other titans of the business world.

The businesses that these big shots of the industry ran were worth well over 50 billion dollars respectively, and they represented over half of the tycoons that dominated the business circle of Vashington. The leading figures in the mechanics field and academic circle had also made a surprise appearance, leading many scholars from Perthter City and Vashington to rush to Seaton High School after catching wind of the news.

In comparison, there weren't many people from the political circle present. However, there were still a few big players in attendance, such as two heads from the provincial department, as well as a deputy director. They were all here to join in on Seaton High School's decennium celebration. Fresh chapters posted on find⦿novel.net

The sudden turn of events left the teachers and students of Crestfield shocked speechless. Even Darius as well as the teachers and students of Seaton were at a loss for what to do. They had even assumed that they had committed a grave crime for so many people to appear on the scene at once.

They would never have guessed that they were all here to participate in Seaton's decennium celebration.

The deputy director of the province making an appearance was the most shocking. Although Seaton had been doing quite well in the past couple of years, Darius still couldn't help but feel a little in over his head. He was aware of his own capabilities and knew that the achievements of the school itself alone wouldn't have attracted the attention of so many esteemed guests. It was all thanks to the support of the alumni.

After he recovered his composure, Darius fixed a smile on his face that was so wide that his pearly-whites were on full display. He kept up a polite and humble demeanor as he engaged with the newcomers, terrified of accidentally offending any one of them.

The appearance of these guests undoubtedly added to the pride and honor of Seaton High School. As Darius marinated in his gratitude, he also quickly arranged for some of them to go onto the stage to give a speech. Due to the sheer number of people that were present, it was impossible for everyone to have a turn, so he selected the most important leaders to take the stage to speak their mind.

Meanwhile, Darius begged for the other guests who didn't get a chance to go on stage for their kind understanding. He even promised to apologize to each of them personally after the celebration was over.

The deputy director, Frank, as well as the presidents of the companies that were worth over 100 billion dollars were invited up to the stage and took their turns to give a speech to the audience. They expressed their anticipation for Seaton High School's future and implored for the school to continue improving itself to produce even better results.

Most importantly, the guests also offered financial support. When the president of Millicent Group announced that she was investing 50 million dollars toward the betterment of the school, the entire audience erupted in approving cheers. The huge sum would be put toward the advancement of Seaton High School, allowing the school to build upon the foundation it already had.

At that moment, no one would dare question if Seaton High School was worthy of being part of the second division of Perthter City's high school rankings. Seaton had proven its capabilities, no matter if it was regarding the number of enrolled students, or the massive scale of their alumni and guests.

The ones who were still anticipating for Seaton High School to be the laughingstock were met with a rude awakening when they found out about the 50 million dollar investment that would be put into Seaton's advancement.

It was clear that Crestfield High School had turned into the butt of the joke of the people. The guest seats were mostly abandoned, and even the quality of their guests could not be compared to those who were present at Seaton High School. Crestfield never expected such a turn of events, so they did not have a failsafe for a situation such as this. They could only stare at the empty seats in a daze.
