Spoiled by Eight Uncles (Lily) novel Chapter 75

Ms. Watson got indignant but remained steadfast that the problem wasn’t as big as it made itself out to be.

She was, after all, the best foreign language teacher in the school!

Animaux Private Academy relied on her to beat their rival, the North City Public School.

Mr. Lane, the headmaster, was going to keep her around even if he agreed with Anthony. It was all just a show after all.

Mr. Lane, who had tried to blend into the background, finally had no choice but to step up. “Ms. Watson was also in the wrong for having punished a student without a proper reason. She’ll be disciplined for it.”

Ms. Watson could barely believe her ears. “I’m just doing my duty as a teacher! I dole out punishments because I have a responsibility to see them better.!”

“Your students are punished without reason and treated differently based on your segregation of their grades,” Anthony started coldly.

“Posting students’ grades on the blackboard to blatantly discriminate and discourage students.”

“Is that what you mean by taking responsibility?”

“What students grow to be outstanding without a bit of a teacher’s scolding? This is all for their sake! Frankly speaking, aren’t you doing this to me because of Lilly? You’re all terrible people!” Ms. Watson had grown greatly agitated.

“Oh, really?” Anthony smirked.

He already had Charlie look into the foreign language teacher.

Charlie began to read the details of the investigation out loud, “Ms. Watson tried to bribe the head of department with gifts two years ago and received disciplinary action.”

“Since September of last year, Ms. Watson has taken advantage of her position to refer students to off-campus tutoring classes, from which she receives referral fees from.”

Anthony kept his steely gaze on the teacher.

“It’s fine even if Mr. Lane doesn’t take action against a teacher like you. I’ll just have to take it up elsewhere.”

“I’ll also be reconsidering my investment in the school.”

Why would he be so generous as to donate to the school? It was charity, yes, but realistically, he wanted the Crawford children to receive the best at school.

The headmaster fell silent. “…”

What was he supposed to do? He was at a loss for words as he watched Anthony walk away.

Ms. Watson was indignant. “These people are going too far, Mr. Lane!”

The headmaster immediately silenced her. “Shut up! Pack up your things and leave!”

That stunned her. Was this for real?

“You can’t do this, Mr. Lane! We’re preparing for the midterm exams right now…”

Mr. Lane turned to leave.

Half an hour later, she was kicked out of school.

Every parent stared at her. She suddenly felt like a student that had been singled out…

Embarrassment, humiliation, unsettled…

“Corporal punishment… Hah, I can’t even bear to raise my voice at my daughter… And here she is…”

“I never liked her… I was wondering what connections she had the entire time…”

“Referring students to off-campus tutoring institutions and collecting referral fees… Tsk. What a great teacher.”

Ms. Watson fled from the scene!

She hadn’t just been fired.

Her teaching qualifications had also been revoked.

How was she going to make a living now?!

Anthony held Lilly firmly in his arms. His pace was neither quick nor slow.

Both Josh and Drake trailed behind him. The former was still carrying Lilly’s school bag with a long face.

Lilly hesitated to speak.

“Uncle…”

“I wasn’t in timeout for very long!”

She had left with her brother to get food too!

Anthony eased his tone. “It has nothing to do with you, Lilly.”

He was trying to comfort the girl.

It was true that Ms. Watson deserved to be punished but how could it have nothing to do with Lilly?

Charlie had inquired a few students on the ins and outs of Ms. Watson dolling out punishments to Lilly and also vilifying her in class.
