Troy's complexion shifted, his grip on his cane tightening.
Wade might be a screw-up, but he was the grandson Troy had doted on since he was a child.
Maja was really making a scene, not giving anyone an inch.
The air was filled with Wade's howls, but nobody dared say a word.
Maja had already helped Quentin to the infirmary, leaving behind the chaotic scene.
The principal, pale as a ghost, hurried over to the old man, "Troy, what is happening?"
His mind was still buzzing, unable to believe the events that had just unfolded.
What if he had offended Maja? What was he going to do? Panic set in, his palms sweaty.
"Troy, Maja is quite the hothead. Today she nearly made a spectacle of Wade and then had the audacity to show such bravado in front of you. Should we send her to Inner Island?"
Troy's eyes were sharp beneath his furrowed brows.
The principal's suggestion was clear: he hoped the wealthy families on Inner Island would put Maja in her place.
With its affluent residents and the four big families, Inner Island was a powerhouse. Yet even there, Maja's worth was top-tier.
After all, twenty million dollars were just pocket money to her. How rich was she?
Troy was fond of Wade, but he was no fool. He could see through the principal's ploy.
With a look, he signaled his bodyguards, who promptly seized the principal.
The principal, in a panic, exclaimed, "Troy, what are you doing?"
Troy waved his hand dismissively, "Time for a change in leadership. Let's see who Ms. Pennyfeather would prefer as principal."
The principal's face drained of color, his complexion ashen.
Troy stepped forward, his voice commanding, "Everybody disperse. The police will deal with Wade and the principal accordingly."
Wade, who had been feigning injury on the ground, clung to Troy's feet in fear at these words.
"Grandpa, don’t do this to me, please!"
Tears and snot mingled as he wept, but the old man merely kicked him away.
"Get lost! How did I end up raising such a disappointment like you!"

The readers' comments on the novel: Dear Ex-wife Marry Me novel (Maja)
Author, would you story about Ryan settling down and another story on Eric regaining his body and memories back from Patrick, and Eric also settling down as I find it so disheartening for him to have gone through what he went through at the research institute, and I'll like for him to get his "golden boy" life back though, not at the detriment of Ian....
When will the author update to finish Beck's story? What about Dylan and Tyler's love lives? Also, I'll like the author to write on Wilma and Elvis ending up together as she was quite persistent in pursuing him. And Shawn's story, Cornelia Sullivan and Omar Casson. Also, a little write-up on Jeff (Ian's assistant) love life, too. Thanks, author for updating....
