The security guard at the side was quick to take action. He stopped her and said, “You've been fired, Ms. Clumps. You shouldn’t be causing any more trouble. Otherwise, I’m calling the police.”Many of the kindergarten teachers had heard the commotion.None of them were upset when they saw what happened to Laura. Someone even took the lead to applause.“Are we finally getting rid of that horrible woman? That’s great news!”“Ms. Cruise, I’d like to report Laura Clumps for accepting bribes from parents. She even deducted our pay and embezzled public funds. You mustn’t let this slide!”“Haha, she always abused her power as the principal and was so mean to us. She’s finally getting her just desserts. The world is fair.”Eva did not expect Laura to have committed so many wrongs. She was astounded to hear those accusations.Even Emma was frowning.She had always known Laura to be a problematic person, but it had never occurred to her that Laura had done so many terrible things.Emma’

It was ten at night.Hunter Langley did not expect to receive a message from Lucy in his suite in Supreme Club. [I’m in Room A001 at the Oriental International Hotel. I’m feeling really unhappy. Can you come over to accompany me?]The moment he read the message, Hunter rushed over to the hotel without a second thought.It took him less than ten minutes to get there.Hunter was about to ring the doorbell when he noticed that the room door was slightly open. It was not locked.He wondered about it as he pushed the door open.The moment Hunter walked in, Mason appeared from a dark corner of the corridor.There was a biting cold look in his eyes. No emotions showed on his face as he watched Hunter enter his fiancée’s room.It was obvious that Mason was the one who had sent Hunter the message to come to the hotel!Mason did not love Lucy, but he knew Lucy was close to Hunter.Hunter was also Nathan’s nephew. He had always wanted Lucy, and Mason decided to give them his blessing to

It had been more than ten minutes by the time Mason returned.Lucy had completed all the check-ups required.The doctor left very soon after, and the hospital room was left with only two of them.Lucy hid her hatred and pretended to look pitiful. She grabbed Mason’s hand tightly in hers. “You’re finally back, Mason. I thought you left.”Mason sat next to her bed and comforted her softly. “I won’t leave. Stop imagining things. You must be tired by now. You should go to sleep.”Lucy shook her head. Her eyes were red, making her look tearful and quite fragile. “I don’t want to go to sleep. I’m afraid to shut my eyes. Mason, would you… Would you not want me anymore now that this has happened to me?”Her biggest fear was Mason leaving her out of disgust.Mason was a prideful man, after all.His fiancée had slept with another man and was considered dirty now. Why would he still want her?Mason continued consoling her, saying, “Stop imagining things. I won’t leave you. I’ll make sure

Mason had always known that Nathan was quite sharp. He smiled and admitted, “You’re exactly how everyone describes you to be, Mr. Langley. Always getting straight to the crux of things! You’re right. I don’t want money, but I do have a simple request. "Don’t worry, it won’t affect the great Langleys at all. Although, do understand that it’s not difficult for me to create a little scandal that would create some trouble for you. It all depends on your choice, Mr. Langley.”There was outrage in Nathan’s eyes, but he maintained a calm and collected demeanor. “Let’s hear your request. I’d like to find out what you mean by ‘simple’!”Mason could detect the coldness in this tone, but he was unperturbed by it. He played with his teacup while saying, “I’ve heard that you've been engaged to Miss Pileggi for quite a few years. Looking at both your ages, isn’t it about time you got married?”Nathan was momentarily taken aback but later burst out laughing. “Why would an outsider care about my

Lucy said, “It’s Eva Lane! She must be jealous of me getting married to you, which was why she set me up. You have to investigate this and find out if she's the one who got Hunter Langley to come to my room and caused me to…”She suddenly became upset at this point and could not control her tears from flowing. She looked crushed.Lucy thought Mason would relent to this when he saw the state she was in.He cared a lot about her!Besides, she had invited Eva over.Yet, Eva did not show up. She must be feeling guilty about something!Mason agreed without hesitating, which was exactly what Lucy had expected. “Alright. I’ll make sure to investigate this. I won’t allow you to suffer for nothing.”Lucy felt deeply comforted when she heard Mason’s words.He did care a lot about her!However, she could not take it for granted.With her eyes still red, she bit her lip and put on a pitiful look. “You’re so good to me, Mason, but… I don’t think I’m good enough for you anymore. I love you
