Ice and Fire novel Chapter 214

The teacher then approached Joe, and seeing his unhappy appearance, the teacher carefully asked him, "What's wrong? Are you in some sort of trouble?"

Hearing the teacher's question, Joe suddenly got inspired. He looked at the teacher, and said, "Can I borrow your phone?"

The teacher looked back at Joe with surprise, and said, "What do you want to do with my phone?"

"I want to call my Uncle, " said Joe.

"But you live with your Daddy now, and you don't need to go back to your Uncle's house anymore. Why do you want to call him?" replied the teacher. She knew Joe's situation very well, because he was Jackson's son. She had wanted to ask a favor out of Jackson but she hadn't had the chance yet. The teacher had tried her best to take good care of Joe and wondered if she might ever get a chance to meet with Joe's father.

Seeing his teacher's unwillingness to lend her phone, Joe thought for a moment. He then looked at the teacher seriously, and said, "Do you know who my Daddy is? If I go home and tell my Daddy that the teacher behaved badly to me at school, what kind of punishment do you think you will get?"

Joe's words suddenly made the teacher nervous. She would certainly get fired, and all the people in the city knew that it was a terrible thing to offend Jackson.

The teacher then quickly took out her phone and gave it to Joe. There was a slight quiver in her hand and voice, and she said, "Joe, I'm very sorry! I didn't mean what I said just now, but I just wanted to know the reason why you needed the phone before I lend it to you. Here you are, you can call you Uncle now!"

Joe then took the phone from her but still didn't feel satisfied. He said to the teacher, "Would you mind if you go out? I'll return it to your office after I'm done with it."

"Okay, okay, take your time, " hastily said the teacher with a smile on her face before she left the classroom.

Seeing that the teacher went away, Joe looked all around classroom again. After Joe made sure that there was nobody else inside except him, he dialed his Uncle's number.

The call was soon connected.

"Hello, this is Wilson speaking!"

"Hey, Uncle, it's Joe!"

"Joe?" Wilson was surprised by his sudden phone call. "Why are you calling me? Whose phone is this?"

"It's my teacher's phone. Uncle, I have something to tell you, " quickly said Joe.
