Translator: Simple MTL Editor: Simple MTL
As Borg was beating up the teenager, the school principal ran to the classroom. He looked panicked, afraid.
After he arrived, he immediately went to the side of the teenager who had been beaten up. He took a look at the teenager and found that he had fainted.
Faced with such a situation, the school principal immediately pointed at Borg and Eric and cursed at them.
“You two! Do you know who you’re hitting? My God…”
When the teenager was being hit, someone picked up his phone, answering a call.
After the incoming call was answered, the teenager’s father on the other end of the line did not hear his son’s voice. He only heard loud screams.
Therefore, he immediately hung up the call and called the school principal. His first order was to quickly find out what was happening to his son. Then, he immediately notified the police station in the school’s jurisdiction, asking them to quickly mobilize the police force.
So, the situation had escalated very quickly…
The school’s principal was an old man in his fifties. He had white hair and wore glasses. He looked like a steady man, but the way he did things was full of bureaucracy. He spoke and walked with a strong sense of authority; it was as if he was the leader of everyone.
When they heard the principal’s words, Borg and Eric glared at him coldly and did not pay much attention to him.
If this principal dared to be arrogant, they would beat him up too!
However, they did not have much experience with this principal. They turned their heads and started to show off to their daughters.
“Baby, how are you?”
Eric was the first to talk to Linda. Then, he extended a thumb in an attempt to get Linda’s praise.
It didn’t matter to him that this was the mayor’s son. Even if it was the governor’s son or the President’s son, if they bullied his daughter, he would beat them up without hesitation!
The mayor was no comparison to his daughter in his eyes.
No matter who had been here today, if they upset his daughter, they would end up in the same situation.
“Daughter, what do you want to eat for lunch today? Uncle Eric said that he would treat us all to a meal, so what would you like?”
Borg did not care about what was going on in the school anymore. What he cared about now was when to eat. It was almost noon, so he was starving. His stomach grumbled. His daughter had an exam in the afternoon, so they might as well find a place to eat here. It would save him the trouble of running around.
Hearing Borg’s words, Eric immediately became anxious. Without waiting for him to speak, his daughter, Linda, spoke.
“Really? Judith, let’s go to that Italian restaurant close to the school. I heard the food there is very delicious, and I’ve always wanted to go but never had the chance. Today, my dad is treating us, so let’s go there!”
When Linda finished speaking, Borg also joined in.
“Yes, yes, yes. I remember that restaurant. The food there is really delicious. I wanted to take Judith there, but I couldn’t find the opportunity. Now is a good time. Let’s go with Uncle Eric. He’s paying for it all today anyway!”
After saying that, Judith also agreed.
But no one noticed that Eric had turned green.
Eric was very ruthless when it came to money and didn’t like to spend a fortune. He had at most 600 dollars a month in spare money, and the rest of the money was controlled by Linda’s mother. And although he smoked, he usually bummed cigarettes off other people.
As for the Italian restaurant, that was even more of a joke… He couldn’t even afford a roadside stall!
So, after hearing Borg’s words, he almost cried. But Linda had already spread the word, so he couldn’t say anything. Lots of people were waiting for him, so he could only be forced to agree.
“You!” the principal roared.
Seeing that the two parents not only didn’t feel ashamed of beating people up and were more bothered about what to eat for lunch, the principal felt so angry that he pointed at them and wanted to curse.
“Your daughter will fail this semester! In the future, you can forget about continuing to take exams in this school!”
The principal was so angry. For what Borg and Eric had done, he would make them pay the price! He would let them know what would happen if they angered him…
However, as soon as he finished speaking, he heard a cold voice say, “You can try! You would be a fool to disrespect me and my daughter! Do you want to face the consequences?”
As soon as Borg said this, everyone looked at him. At that moment, Borg seemed to have changed into a different person. He looked at the principal with a cold expression, anger burning in his eyes.
The principal saw Borg’s sudden change in demeanor and was shocked. What Borg had said scared him so much that he couldn’t even speak properly.
“I… I… You, you, you… J-just you wait! I will definitely report this matter to the higher-ups. When the time comes, all of you will be punished!” the principal managed to say after a moment of stunned silence.
The person who had been beaten up was the mayor’s son, and these two parents didn’t seem like big shots. They didn’t have very strong backgrounds, as far as the principal was aware.
He had a great relationship with the mayor. Otherwise, why would he help the mayor’s son cheat in the exam?
Moreover, the mayor wouldn’t have called him so soon after the incident happened and asked him to handle this matter if they weren’t close.
“Take them all down!”
Just then, a group of police officers arrived!
They surrounded the place, and among these officers, there was a middle-aged man standing behind them.
He was the one who had ordered this!
