Chapter 327
Jonathan smirked. “And what’s that price supposed to be? Should I give your uncle a call? You’re only this cocky because you’ve got David backing you Without him, you’re nothing.”
When he saw Lysander’s face change, Jonathan pulled out his phone. “Your uncle’s been wanting to work with me ever since I set up a branch here. I’ve got his number right here.”
He pulled up David’s number and held the screen up to Lysander’s face. “This one, right?”
Just when Jonathan’s finger hovered over the call button, Lysander panicked and grabbed his hand. “It’s nothing, really. No need to bother my uncle. I’ll just stay in the hospital for a few days and rest up.”
Jonathan put his phone away. “Teresa’s already quit. You should leave the school too. You’re not fit to be principal.”
Lysander started to panic. “I won’t bother Ms. Johnston anymore, okay? I worked hard for this job. You’re a big boss, you shouldn’t get involved in my business.”

If she said no now, it’d just make her look guilty. “Sure, I need to pick up some things anyway,” Teresa replied. “I’ll park over by the lot.”
She parked in the underground A1 section, while Jonathan parked somewhere else. When Teresa got upstairs, Jonathan said he’d take the elevator to the supermarket entrance and wait for her there.
Teresa reached the entrance first and told Michael, “Later, Mr. Lime is coming to shop with us.”
Michael threw both hands up in excitement. “Yay! Mr. Lime and I are buddies, so I can buy tons of stuff now!”
Jonathan bent down and scooped him up. Michael scampered ahead on his little legs, Jonathan pushed the shopping cart, and Teresa walked beside him. This was the kind of life she’d always dreamed of To Teresa, it felt like a dream.
Jonathan was soaking in the warmth of this peaceful moment. This was exactly the kind of life he’d always dreamed of. If he had a child of his own, he’d
Michael stretched out his arms and picked the fanciest, most expensive one from the top. “Mr. Lime, you’re so generous. Thank you.”
“No need to thank me,” Jonathan said with a smile. When he turned around, Teresa was nowhere to be seen. He glanced around and spotted her picking
