The phone had originally been in the dean’s hand; Evelyn’s action showed no regard for the dean at all.

The dean’s face turned grim as he said, “Madam Evelyn, what are you doing? How is this not evidence? Naomi deliberately damaged Eliza’s. personal property; it is perfectly reasonable to ask forpensation. How can you call that extortion? Are you even capable of reasoning?”

“What do you mean, unreasonable? Eliza left something as valuable as an electronic wallet in her drawer; wasn’t she practically asking someone to steal it? She wanted to perform a piano piece at the New Year’s Eve party, but she’s never even learned to y the piano. If she embarrassed herself, it would reflect poorly on the Rivers family. Naomi was trying to spare the family from that shame.”

The dean was stunned by Evelyn’s logic. iHow /iicould /iisomeone /iibe /iithis /iishameless/ii? /i

“Teacher, Naomi’s parent just hit Henry without any cause. I want to report this to the police. Henry isn’t her child; she had no right toy a hand on him. And even if it were her own child, a parent hitting them is

still a crime.”

“You child! How can you…”

Before Evelyn could finish, the dean cut her off. “Madam Evelyn, did youy a hand on another student?”

“I was just trying to discipline them. Isn’t it perfectly normal for adults to discipline children?”

Evelyn sneered. “He lured my daughter away; of course I had to teach him a lesson.”

“What nonsense!”

Henry was furious the moment he heard that.

Evelyn, however, spoke with conviction. “If you had nothing going on with Eliza, why did you buy her an electronic keyboard? And why are you defending her like this? Don’t tell me there is nothing between you two; I will never believe that.”

“You old hag! Shut your filthy mouth!”

Henry’s face darkened as he moved toward Evelyn, but Eliza stopped him just in time.

Outside the door, no one knew how long Nn had been standing there listening. By the time everyone noticed him, his face had already grown cold and hard.

Evelyn felt extremely ufortable under that gaze; this was just a teenager, yet he looked at her with theposure of someone far older.

“Whether I can discipline him or not isn’t up to me; once Henry’s parents arrive, you can take it up with them.”

Eliza pulled Henry to a seat nearby.

It was supposed to be morning ss already, but thanks to Evelyn’s arrival, they had already wasted twenty full minutes.

Since Evelyn had assaulted someone, she had no choice but to stay and wait.

Once Nn entered, he asked, “Did she start this?”

“Of course she did. Came in swinging before anyone could say a word. Must be menopause.”

Henry wiped the bruise at the corner of his mouth; it felt like it might have bled.

Evelyn nced at her watch. “Are his parentsing or not? I have other things to do; I don’t have time to sit here with you all. And you better hand over that 400 dors soon, or don’t me me when I get awyer involved.”

She assumed that as an adult, she had every right to teach these kids a lesson.

The dean and the teacher on duty could only stand by the door, helpless, watching this deranged Evelyn. iThese /iidays/i, what kind iof /iiparents /iiare /iiout /iithere/ii? /i

Naomi stood with her mother, utterly humiliated.

Whatever reputation she had with the teachers was nowpletely gone.

Momentster, footsteps echoed through the hallway. At first there were only two people, then many more followed.

A crowd of students gathered at the door of ss 6, peeking in curiously.

At the door, a man dressed like a secretary knocked politely.

Evelyn frowned, unsure who this was.

But the dean quickly provided the answer.

He stepped forward to shake the man’s hand. “Andres, is Mr. Henry noting today?”

“Mr. Henry is currently overseas on business. He asked me to handle this matter on his behalf.”

“Mr. Henry?”

Evelyn froze.

iHenry/i? Naomi wanted nothing more than to crawl into a hole.

Andres stepped inside. Behind him, a doctor entered to examine Henry’s injury, while several bodyguards positioned themselves around the door. Finally, a team ofwyers walked in.

Evelyn had never seen anything like this. iThis /iiwas /iijust /iia /iiparent /iimeeting/ii; /iwhy ihad /iso imany /iipeople /ishown iup/ii? /i

“May I ask if thisdy was the one who assaulted our young lord?”

Andres approached Evelyn.

Evelyn assumed this was just some minor businessman’s child. “Your son lured my daughter into an early romance and encouraged her to extort money from my other daughter. Of course, I had every right to hit him.”
