Chapter 177

At this hour, the building was filled with teachers, along with a few students who had come to drop off their

assignments.

The door to the room was ajar, and both teachers and students stood at the threshold, staring in shock and

confusion

Leila lay crumpled on the floor, her clothes in disarray, a shoulder exposed, as she cried out, “I’m sorry, Mr. Latham, please let me go! I can’t stand being the talk of the school anymore…”

Latham was frantic, waving his hands in denial, “Leila, what are you talking about?”

After his plea, he turned to the other teachers and students in a panic, insisting, “I didn’t do anything to her! You’ve got it all wrong!”

Leila’s sobs were breathless and desperate.

The building was the teachers‘ office block, and Latham sometimes napped in this office, which is why there were no security cameras installed.

Considering Leila’s current state, there’s no way Latham could talk his way out of this situation, no matter how eloquently he spoke!

One of the teachers quickly spoke up, “I’m going to call the principall”

The principal and the head of academic affairs arrived promptly. They hurriedly reached out to Leila’s parents and then the principal took Latham aside, asking in a low voice, “What happened here?”

Latham’s face flushed with embarrassment. He was a simple man who biked to work on an old bicycle, his face deeply lined and tanned from the sun, and now he stammered, “This student is framing me–I’ve been cautious, but I never expected her to set such a trap!”

cries grew louder and more pitiful, “Latham, you, you…” Her outburst brought tears to her eyes.
