Tina laughed. “Obviously. If my mom wasn’t meeting with you every day, someone else would’ve gotten this.”
The video ended. I cleared my throat.
“Finley’s affair is one thing–that’s between us. But as a teacher, doing something like this? He’s betrayed every single student here.”
Now Finley had pissed off the entire student body.
For seniors, grades were everything..
But because of Finley’s selfishness, it was all a joke.
And that wasn’t even counting the regular exams. Finley had probably been leaking questions the whole time.
A teacher like that was a cancer in the school!
The hall erupted. Students shouted, cursed, demanded justice.
But I’d prepared for this. I’d already contacted the school administration.
The principal stepped forward, calming the crowd, promising swift punishment for this serious breach of conduct.
With Asher–a major university investor–backing me, no one dared argue. They just resumed the retreat schedule.
The students obeyed, but their fingers flew across their phones.
Meanwhile, I’d already edited and uploaded all the videos online.
Public outrage was the best catalyst.
The police showed up to verify the situation. When they heard it was a domestic affair, they didn’t take it too seriously.
But before leaving, they told me that if I filed for divorce, the Phoenix PD could testify to the infidelity.
Talia had everything arranged. She even graciously invited Finley’s lawyer buddy, Hayes, to join.
In the conference room, Talia spread the divorce agreement in front of Finley and gestured for him to sign.
Finley flipped through a few pages, chest heaving. “Why should I leave with nothing? Even in a divorce, I’m entitled to half the
assets!”
He glared at me. “You bitch. You cost me my job. You think you can just walk away?!“.
Hayes, sitting beside him, spoke carefully. “Even if the husband cheated, he’s still entitled to half the marital assets.”
falia’s eyes went cold. “Sign it. Trust me, you don’t want to see what happens if you don’t.”
‘After the divorce, you disappear. She moves on. No contact. Understood?”

Ho Thought I’d car
Chapter 8
Finley laughed bitterly. “You think I’m that stupid? I’ve got no job, no money. How am I supposed to survive in Phoenix?”
Talia pulled out her phone and played a video.
An elderly man in a nursing home–Finley’s grandfather. His only living relative.
“Finley, what do you think would happen if your grandfather found out you cheated and helped students cheat? How do you think
he’d take it?”
That was Finley’s only weak spot. Elderly people couldn’t handle shocks like that.
So, I got my divorce.
Finley voluntarily gave up all assets.
His only demand? A job.
At my request, Tina was given a major disciplinary mark. All her grades were voided. The other students received compensation.
But when parents found out Finley was still employed at the school, they weren’t having it. Complaints flooded in, demanding he be kicked out for good.
Finally, Finley’s teaching license was revoked.
He was reassigned to clean toilets.
