Chapter 251: A Father’s Wrath.

An Hour ago...

Renn sat alone in the quiet cafeteria, waiting. Miss Valois had asked to meet him one last time. He already had a feeling about what she wanted to talk about. Maybe she would say it wasn’t her fault they were separated, or that he had been too harsh with her. Whatever it was, he wasn’t ready to listen.

He had been there for thirty long minutes, frustration growing inside him. He pulled out his phone from his jacket pocket to call her when he saw her walk in. The place was empty except for the two of them. All the students were in the hall, leaving the air still and heavy.

"You can’t keep me waiting this long when you’re the one who called me here," Renn said, his voice edged with anger.

"I’m sorry," Miss Valois said softly. She stood there with her hands behind her, her face pale and filled with sadness. Something about her eyes made his heart tighten, but before he could speak again, she pulled out a gun.

The sound of two gunshots broke the silence. Renn gasped, falling to the floor as pain tore through his legs. He looked at her in disbelief, his mind refusing to accept what had just happened.

Miss Valois walked closer, her eyes wet with tears. Her voice trembled as she whispered, "I have to do it for us. I can’t let them kill me for her. I will call your cousin, Dave to get you to the hospital."

Renn stared at her, confused and broken, feeling his world collapse right in front of him.

Kaito headed for the principal’s office and when he got there, he knocked, but no one answered. He pushed the door open and found Hiro sitting on one of the chairs inside. A wave of relief washed through him when he saw his brother.

"What’s up, man?" Hiro stood up as they shook hands and shared a quick hug. "You got an invitation too?"

"Yes, a few minutes ago," Kaito answered, looking around the office. He sat beside his brother and asked, "Where’s Principal Valois? Did you meet her?"
