The director of education was stunned, and the surrounding students were also stunned.
They were dumbfounded, watching the new principal grab the young man's hand and shake it warmly.
"What's going on? There must be a mistake! How could someone like Principal Lewis know this Charlie Thompson? Impossible!"
The director of education stood there woodenly, a look of disbelief on his face.
This Charlie Thompson, he knew all too well, was just a poor kid from the village. How could someone like that know the new principal?
Yes, it must be a case of mistaken identity!
At this moment, I was also somewhat bewildered. I didn't know this new principal, and I wondered why the principal was so enthusiastic upon meeting me.
"Principal, you must have mistaken him for someone else! His name is indeed Charlie Thompson, but..." the director of education said softly.
