SWNOVELS Chapter 428 Being The Lady Of The Mu Clan Is Not A Big Deal
No wonder John had bad grades before. It was because of his personal experience! Linda once paid special attention to him, and he was still greatly touched by her kind gesture.
Linda thought of her own childhood. It was a relatively happy one. Although she was born a lot earlier than her sister Cindy, and Linda was not her mother's biological daughter, Donna treated the two children the same. Linda loved her younger sister Cindy, and Cindy also respected her elder sister. Linda would not interfere with Cindy's life, but sometimes she would guide Cindy back to the right path.
Linda had always believed that, whether it was the parents or elder siblings, it would be better to influence the younger ones in a wholesome way when guiding them, and not by simply interfering with one specific matter. Otherwise, it would easily arouse the rebellious behavior of the adolescents.
"It's okay. It's all over, right? In fact, your parents aren't treating you badly, are they? And maybe your younger sister needs more care. You are the elder brother after all!" said Linda.
"Okay, Miss. Xia. You are right. Don't worry. I have already gotten over it. When I was a kid, I got a bit angry at them since they only took my younger sister out, leaving me alone at home to study. I was rebellious at that time, so I didn't work hard on my study, and my grades wasn't so good," said John.
That explained it. Parents really had great influences on children.
Linda despised the type of parents who wanted their children to be excellent, but they themselves were incompetent. If their children couldn't study better or improve even if they had already tried their best, they would scold their children hard, sometimes even adding violence to the supposed "discipline".
Linda despised those types of parents the most. For the lack of a better phrase, a person who did nothing but lay one egg couldn't expect his egg to become a phoenix, soaring off into the sky.
Of course, the ravens may be the phoenixes someday, but under such strong suppression, most phoenixes died before they reached Nirvana.
After lunch, Linda sent John back to the classroom and told him not to worry about the recommendation, nor the college entrance examination. As long as he worked hard, he would get great marks at the exam. It was almost June now, so it would be impossible to change the roster for the recommendation students. Besides, Linda would not like to bother the principal to change it, for there was probably nothing he could do to help at this point. In her mind, John was the best and she had faith in him.
And she believed he could earn it on his own. As long as the disciplinary punishment was lifted, John would become popular to all the universities with his grades, and he would definitely be admitted to one that he desired.
After sending John off, Linda and Anna went back to the office. It was the first week of Linda being at work, so there was nothing for her to do. She could go home at half past four in the afternoon. In the office, Anna said in an angry tone, "Amber is such a bitch. She is always picking on John."
Linda had mentioned John to Anna and Bun once.
"That's right. There was nothing I could do. I was kidnapped at that time. I never knew that the thing had been suspended. Luckily, I went back to school to teach again. Otherwise, John's entire life would have been ruined by her.
He was forced to admit to doing something he hadn't done. He got good marks and could have been on the recommendation list, but he wasn't. He tried to go through a legitimate way to get into a university, but he would probably be stopped from doing so because of some ridiculous punishment, especially when he was completely innocent! Why should a child suffer all these horrible things?
As a teacher, how could Amber do all this to her student? Did she have no shame at all?" said Linda.
Linda went to the principal's office again at once. The principal was still suffering from the shock, since his relationship with Amber was known by Linda. Linda was the Lady of the Mu clan and the wife of Charles. Nobody dared to offend her.
Seeing Linda come back, the principal asked, "My Lady, what..."
"Don't ever call me Lady. This is a school, and I am a teacher. You can call me Linda or Miss Xia," said Linda.
Linda almost got goosebumps when she heard the principal calling her Lady. Even Anna and Bun addressed her Miss Xia or Linda in front of the students. Since this was a school, they would only call her 'My Lady' in private. The principal was being inappropriate by calling her Lady in school. It would only look like Linda was privileged. Then, there would be no point teaching in a school like this. "Okay. I will keep that in mind. What else can I do for you?" asked the headmaster.
"I want to ask about John's case. Haven't we made it clear then? John didn't do it. He didn't watch the video in computer class. Why was his disciplinary punishment still not lifted?" asked Linda
Aggressively and with a serious look on her face.
This was a serious matter.
The headmaster and Amber's immoral acts were their own business, but sabotaging a student's life was something that should not be looked over upon.
"About this, My Lady... Sorry, Miss Xia. Amber asked me to turn a blind eye to it. After all, she was pretty upset because of it. So I did what she asked, " replied the headmaster.
Linda sneered inside. What the headmaster meant was that Amber was good at making men listen to her.
"Now, you know what you should do. The kid ranked first in his whole batch. If the punishment is not lifted, he cannot go into any universities," said Linda.
The headmaster surely grasped what she meant, so he nodded and said, "Don't worry. I'll solve the matter in a week."
"Then, I shall take my leave now. Remember what you said, headmaster. By the way, if my memory serves me right, you were also a teacher back then, right? What's the most important thing in being a teacher? I believe you know it, so please behave yourself," said Linda. After she finished speaking, Linda slammed the door and left. She was not willing to give a good look at a scumbag like him.
After she left, the headmaster instantly turned from a yes-man to a brute. Looking at her receding back from the window, he showed a ferocious look and said to himself, "Bitch, just because she's the Lady of the Mu clan, she thinks she's a few notches above others. And how dare she boss me around!"☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
