Evelyn Clayton was inexplicably furious at what was said. What do you mean, pity her? She pities her, but who will pity her own child? Thinking about what Yvette Warren had told her, Evelyn felt a chill down her spine. If this matter was indeed Arthur Chandler scheming behind the scenes, attempting to use Sharon to threaten her, it would prove that there are already Arthur Chandler’s informants at Genesis Academy. And this informant is a very prestigious person. Otherwise, they wouldn’t be involved in deciding on the construction of the gymnasium. Genesis Academy being infiltrated by such a person, and now knowing some clues, sending Sharon back there would be like pushing her daughter back into the fire. Evelyn Clayton could never do that. But seeing Teacher He in despair, her teary face, Evelyn felt that this matter couldn’t just be brushed off. Otherwise, the one who suffers in the end might not be Arthur Chandler, nor the person from Genesis Academy. But this class teacher, Teacher He. So Evelyn Clayton thought for a while and then said in a deep voice, "How much is the penalty fee you mentioned?" Teacher He was stunned for a moment, then cautiously said, "Fifty, fifty thousand..." Evelyn Clayton nodded, "Alright, I understand. I will talk this over with Principal Shaw. If it comes to it, I will cover the money for you." However, after listening to Evelyn Clayton, Teacher He didn’t show any sign of joy. She bit her lip, looking as if she found it hard to speak. ɪꜰ ʏᴏᴜ ᴡᴀɴᴛ ᴛᴏ ʀᴇᴀᴅ ᴍᴏʀᴇ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs, ᴘʟᴇᴀsᴇ ᴠɪsɪᴛ NoveI[F]ire.net Evelyn Clayton frowned, "What, is that not enough?" "No..." Teacher He panicked for a moment, "I really appreciate your kindness. But, but... Genesis Academy is the best job I could find! If I’m fired by Genesis Academy, I might never find a job as suitable again..." Evelyn Clayton was truly annoyed now. She couldn’t help but let out a cold laugh, "Teacher He, I believe I have already gone to great lengths. What now, not only do I have to pay this compensation, but I also need to find you a job? This doesn’t seem like a mistake on your part that led to my daughter getting injured and hospitalized; rather, it seems as if I have wronged you?" "No, no, Sharon’s mom, that’s not what I meant!" Teacher He was flustered, "I just wanted to say, if possible, could Sharon return to Genesis Academy? I promise, I promise this time I will protect her well, and she will never be harmed again!" Evelyn Clayton’s patience was tested to its limit. She stood up and said coldly, "Teacher He, my offer is singular, I will speak to Principal Shaw. If he insists on terminating your employment, I will pay the fifty thousand penalty fee for you. Beyond this, there is no other option." After speaking, Evelyn Clayton glanced at the servant and said coldly, "Show the guest out." Evelyn Clayton ignored Teacher He and went straight upstairs. Not long after, the servant returned to tell her that Teacher He had been seen out. "What did she say when she left?" Evelyn paused and asked one more question. The servant sighed, "She cried a lot, didn’t say much as she left, just said thank you." Evelyn Clayton pondered for a moment and sighed inwardly. Her willingness to pay that fifty thousand was not just to completely eliminate future troubles for Sharon, but also because she didn’t want such a young girl to truly fall into desperation. Fifty thousand may not be much to the Sinclair Family, but for some ordinary people working nine to five, it could almost change their lives. After much consideration, Evelyn Clayton dialed the phone number for Principal Shaw’s office. If she could persuade Principal Shaw to keep Teacher He, that would be the best outcome. The phone rang for a while before it was finally answered, and a gentle, formulaic feminine voice came from the other side — "Hello, this is the principal’s office." Evelyn Clayton slightly frowned. "I am looking for Principal Shaw." "I’m sorry, ma’am, but Principal Shaw resigned this morning."
