Chapter 81
Whispers rippled through the students, tinged with surprise and curiosity.
“Did you hear what Mr.
Ramsey just said? He mentioned that Miss Moore underwent a meticulous evaluation.
”
“And I agree.
Landing a teaching job here isn’t easy, let alone a clinical teaching position!”
Upon seeing the principal, Leah’s arrogance intensified.
“You’re the principal, correct? Fire this woman! What sort of staff are you recruiting? You’re damaging Halliday University’s reputation!”
Seeing Mr.
Ramsey, Sadie’s brashness evaporated.
She gestured to Leah, signaling her to hold her tongue.
The principal had been steering Halliday University for two decades, playing an instrumental role in its rise to prominence.
He held considerable sway in Valmere, and Sadie knew better than to provoke him.
Leah, however, remained blissfully ignorant and continued her tirade.
“Are you really allowing someone without a degree to teach here? Are you trying to tarnish the school’s name?”
The principal, his hair tinged with gray and his usually gentle face now stern, replied, “Miss Moore’s academic background has been thoroughly checked.
She may not have completed her degree, but she was an exceptional student.
Your derogatory remarks against a member of our faculty will not be tolerated!”
Leah couldn’t contain her disbelief.

“An exceptional student? Are you kidding? You’re just covering for her!”
The principal quit the idle chatter and ordered the guards, “Escort this parent out, right now!”
Leah was about to drop her name as a threat, but the security guards had already moved toward her and escorted her out.
“Hom!”

Witnessing her mother being led away, Sadie felt a twinge of humiliation.
Standing by her side, Eliana let out a soft sigh.
“Miss Moore, ever since your divorce, you’ve certainly made some powerful friends and built an impressive career teaching at Halliday University.
But Leah is your elder, isn’t she? Why humiliate her publicly?”
Unfazed, Hannah looked at Eliana.
“Who really escalated the situation here at the school? They’ve been the ones making distasteful comments since the beginning.
If my response embarrasses her, what about their inappropriate remarks?”
Hannah then turned to Sadie, her gaze tinged with mockery.
“I’ve severed all ties with the Edwards family.
You keep pestering me.
You do know I can take legal action, right? Your brother holds no allure for me! Don’t assume he’s some sort of catch, or that I can’t Live without him.
He was the one leaning on me to reclaim his status within the Edwards family.
Do you really want me to bring up how he lost his position of heir?”
Sadie’s expression shifted dramatically at Hannah’s words, memories she wanted to forget flooding back.
Sensing Sadie’s discomfort, Hannah smirked.
