Kevin gradually regained his strength amidst the murmurs of a crowd of onlookers.
Glanced up at the indifferent Robin.
Knowing that the young man in front of him was trouble, he immediately took out his phone and dialed Principal Lester Zimmerman’s number.
“What’s the matter? Kevin, calling me at this hour?” Lester, in the principal’s office for a lunch break, yawned and patted the woman’s check in his arms, said impatiently.
Kevin wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, lamenting, “Mr. Zimmerman, something has gone wrong!”
. “Flora’s parents came with a few thugs to cause trouble, insisting on not taking the body away. They demanded an explanation from the school and the parents of several other students.”
Lester fell silent for a moment, then lazily said. “Let the school security go, hurry up and deal with the body!”
“Tell them, the student committed suicide, and the fact that our school hasn’t sought compensation from their guardians yet is already very humane!”
Kevin whispered, “Mr. Zimmerman, the newcomer is a bit of a tough nut to crack, you have to come and sort it out.”

“Moreover, there were many students‘ parents and reporters gathered here, I was worried that the situation would escalate and get out of control.”
“Kevin, what can I say about you? You couldn’t even handle this trivial matter!”
Lester pushed the woman in his arms away, impatiently saying, “I’ll be right there!”
Before long, a short, chubby man in his forties, yawning, slowly walked over from the principal’s office.
Lester looked at a group of parents and reporters gathered in the campus, slightly furrowing his brows.
Looking again at Robin in the crowd, it was confirmed that this young man was the greenhorn Kevin had mentioned on the phone.
He shook his head and sneered, full of youthful arrogance, ignorant of the ways of the world!
Lester, as the principal, had long been aware of the bullying Flora experienced at school.
Back then, Flora’s homeroom teacher had reported this matter to him.
However, the girl who led the bullying against Flora, Margie Mason, had an unusual family background.
Margie’s father, Miguel Mason, was a wealthy businessman who recently invested in Hallcester.

The business under his name was Pacific International Group.
Miguel came from Draccastle and had close relationships with some of the official bigwigs of Draccastle.
After learning about Flora being bullied, Lester was moved.
I did the Mason family a favor with this matter.
Despite Flora’s homeroom teacher reporting several times, Lester did not take any action.
He hadn’t expected that Flora would actually jump off the building in a fit of anger to commit suicide.
After the incident, he immediately communicated privately with Margie’s mother, Freda Cross.
Freda responded directly, “Flora’s suicide has nothing to do with us.”
If Flora’s parents made a big fuss, it didn’t matter if they were privately compensated with thirty or fifty thousand.
They would absolutely never meet with Flora’s parents for a discussion.
Unexpectedly, Flora’s parents really did come to make a fuss, persistently and unyieldingly.
Lester had also known about Flora’s family situation before.
Upon learning that Flora’s father. Freddie, was merely the General
Manager of the Southern District Development Corporation, who had some business dealings with the Huber Group.

The assets and background were far different from Miguel’s.
Freddie started from scratch as a rootless grass, his background was far less than the Mason family.
Gave a bit of money, settled it privately and let it go.
If the school had talked to Freddie about the background of the Mason family.
Lester believed that Freddie would definitely accept his proposal.
Absolutely would not dare to wrestle with the Mason family over this
matter.
So, after Flora committed suicide, Lester immediately instructed Kevin to dispose of the body as soon as possible.
However, Freddie, recklessly, demanded an explanation from the school and the Mason family!
Under the escort of two security guards, he approached Robin and the others, impatiently saying, “Who are you people? Are you trying to cause trouble in the school? I warn you, your actions have already violated the criminal law!”
“Clear the way immediately! Let the crematorium staff carry away the student’s body!”
“What’s it doing here? Didn’t you smell that the body has already started co stink?”
Freddie roared at the approaching crematorium workers, “Whoever dares

to touch my daughter, I’ll fight them to the end!”
Lester rebuked, “What do you think you’re doing?! If you’re looking for trouble, we’ll call the police immediately!”
“Are you blind?” Robin flicked his eyelids, saying coldly, “Didn’t you see the video on the internet?”
“Your child suffered cruel abuse at your school, and this is your attitude as the principal?”
Lester paused for a moment.
Unexpectedly, the young–man in front of him had directly cursed him for being blind.
He took a look at Robin, confirming that Hallcester had never seen such a character.
“Fine, fine, fine, as a civilized person who used to be a teacher, I won’t take your insults to heart.” Lester shook his head disdainfully.
“You mean you need compensation? Okay!”
“Some roughhousing among students is quite normal, you can’t entirely blame your child’s death on that incident.”
“This had a lot to do with the child’s family situation. In fact, you should have looked for reasons within yourselves.”
“Let’s not bring up these words now, there’s no point in mentioning them!”
“Mainly, the child committed suicide at school, and we, the school

authorities, considered ourselves unlucky.”
“After the child’s body was taken away, I promised to compensate you with twenty thousand as emotional damages.”
“This should be enough then!”
In the end, Rhonda couldn’t hold back her anger and questioned, “Is this how you, as a principal, handle incidents of school bullying leading to child suicide?”
“Did the procedure for handling such sudden major incidents comply with the regulations of the Department of Education?”
“I entrusted my child to your school, and you were irresponsible!“”
“Now the children have committed suicide because of this, and you are trying to shirk responsibility again!”
“Having said such inhuman words, were you even a person?”
Lester scoffed, “You can insult me, it doesn’t matter. I’m a civilized person with a teaching background. I won’t stoop to your level.”
“As for how I handle it. it’s my business, because I am the principal here. Whatever the process is, I have the final say!”
“You were not convinced, but what could you do even if you were not Convinced?! You still had to bear with it for me!”
Kevin listened to Lester’s domineering words, his eyes bursting with admiration!
The principal, who was originally a teacher, really had a high level of

speech!
He exchanged a smile with Lester, “Mr. Zimmerman was right after all.”
Nia said coldly, “Mr. Zimmerman, is this something a headmaster should say?”
Lester flicked his eyelids, glancing at Nia, and smirked self- deprecatingly, “What attitude? Do you need to teach me?”
“I have been a teacher for nearly twenty years, with the temperament of a human soul engineer ingrained in my bones. I’m afraid your age might not even match my years of teaching experience, right?”
At this point, he let out a long sigh, and said earnestly, “Ah, seeing you all so young, I feel compelled to say a few more words.”
“Hi! I just couldn’t change my bad habits as a teacher.”
“As a person, you had to learn to read the room, otherwise, you would suffer a great loss.”
“The child who led the abuse against Flora was named Margie. Her father was a wealthy businessman who invested in Hallcester from Draccastle.”
‘Margie’s mother was the heiress of a prominent family in Draccastle.”
“Can I stop here?” I asked.
Is it just about the death of a child? How big of a deal is it? Why bring innecessary trouble upon yourself!”
