“Having a ticking time bomb who violently beats people up on campus at any given moment is a terrible look for Westbrook’s reputation, not to mention your own family’s name.”
The principal of Westbrook Academy drove his point home with absolute seriousness.
He knew perfectly well that Ethan cared immensely about Noah’s education.
Because of that, there was zero chance his family would ever pull him out of the school.
This meant Ethan was bound to handle this issue in person.
And he would make d*mn sure Noah finally learned his lesson.
With that final word, the principal slammed the receiver down, turning his gaze back to Noah while waiting for his face to twist in panic.
After all, this was usually the exact moment Noah would roll over and cave.
But when he looked over, Noah’s expression was nothing short of bizarre.
“You…”
Noah stared at him for a long beat before muttering, “Man, you’ve got some serious balls.”
Noah was thoroughly blown away.
This principal was truly something else.
Did he seriously just dial his big brother to complain about the brawl?
But wait, why the hell did the guy leave out the actual reason behind the fight?
Talk about a complete idiot.
Dragging his big brother out here was going to blow up right in their faces.
Did they honestly think Ethan was a harmless puppy?
Noah could only shake his head at the pure stupidity.
If the principal had just laid out the real facts over the phone, Ethan would have backed Noah completely, settled the issue right then and there, and called it a day.
Instead, this moron completely glossed over the root cause and focused entirely on threatening

Oh, this is rich.

Once that human apex predator Ethan Wayne storms in here, everyone is going to have a brutal awakening.
And these administrative hacks actually thought they just brought in a powerful ally?
Noah leaned back in his chair, completely unbothered as he waited inside the Disciplinary Office.
Meanwhile, Isaac received a frantic call from the Westbrook administration, telling him Hannah had been brutally beaten on campus and demanding he get down here immediately.
Isaac’s face washed over with absolute shock.
Hurrying straight over to the administrative wing, he spotted Hannah curled up in a dark corner, weeping uncontrollably.
From his angle, the side of her face was horribly swollen and stained a deep purple.
It was blatantly obvious how much raw force the attacker had unleashed.
The horrific sight instantly sent Isaac into a blinding rage.
“What the hell happened here?” he snarled, his face contorting with anger.
“How could my sister get brutally beaten right inside her own school?
“Is this how Westbrook protects its student body?
“How can a savage assault like this happen on campus?
“Who did this?
“Who the hell put their hands on my sister?”
Sitting across the room, Noah raised a lazy chin and drawled, “I did.
“Got a problem with that?
“She was asking for it.
“So I gave her exactly what she wanted.

“What, is the Powell family gonna try and settle the score with me?”
Noah let out a cold, mocking sneer.
The second Isaac walked through the door, it was nothing but “my sister this” and “my sister that.”
It left him thoroughly irritated.
Isabella was a biological Powell too, yet he never saw any of them treat her with a shred of decency.
Talk about a bunch of arrogant hypocrites.
The moment Noah opened his mouth, Isaac snapped his head around, his eyes widening in pure shock upon recognizing him.
“You? Noah Wayne?”
He stared back and forth between Noah and Hannah in absolute disbelief, “What the hell is going on here?
“Noah, is there some kind of massive misunderstanding between you and Hannah?”
Isaac simply couldn’t map the logic.
Noah and Isabella were supposed to be incredibly tight.
Why on earth would he suddenly launch a brutal assault against Hannah?
There had to be some sort of colossal mix-up.
Hearing his questions, Noah let out a harsh, freezing scoff, “No mix-up at all.
“I thrashed her on purpose.”
Noah’s voice dropped to a deadly register as he added, “Why don’t you ask me why I put her in the dirt?”
Before he could finish, the principal barked out coldly, “Shut your mouth, Noah!
“Your big brother is on his way, and you’re gonna face the music!”
Right as the threat left his lips, Ethan’s commanding voice cut straight through the open doorway.

“Who’s shutting whose mouth?
“Noah, what kind of disaster did you trigger this time?”
Ethan’s expression was solid ice as he stepped across the threshold the exact second the sentence ended.
He had rushed straight over from the federal cyber-division headquarters.

His desk was overflowing with active operations, yet his reckless little brother just had to cause a major scene.
God knows Ethan was practically boiling with rage the moment he left his office.
This absolute brat was begging for a total beatdown.
But as Ethan marched inside with a dark, threatening aura, Noah looked like he had just spotted his ultimate savior, shouting out loud, “Man, Ethan, thank god you’re here!
