Chapter 5 Engagement Canceled

As Hedy looked at Ms. Lee standing in her way, her eyes narrowed, and she said, “Go away.”

Ms. Lee was taken aback and immediately exclaimed in anger, “How dare you speak to a teacher like that!”

She couldn’t afford to provoke trustee Jones, and now Hedy was acting this way?

Did she think that having the Johnson Family backing her meant she wasn’t just a country bumpkin anymore?

“I don’t think someone who immediately demands an apology from a student deserves to be called a teacher,” Hedy said coldly.

“You…” Ms. Lee was at a loss for words.

Oliver, standing beside her, had a stern expression and said angrily, “That’s enough, Hedy.”

Hedy turned to look at Oliver, and her eyes were filled with coldness. “With what identity are you commanding me?”

She had thought that Oliver, who was renowned throughout the school, would stand up for her against Lisa. But when Lisa brought up business matters, he became as submissive as a dog, as if he wanted to offer her head to Lisa as an apology.

“Not anymore!” Hedy’s voice grew louder, and her presence became more dominant and powerful.

“From now on, the engagement between the Ellis Family and the Johnson Family is canceled, and you, go away!”

As her words fell, a terrifying silence enveloped the surroundings.

What happened to Hedy?

Beating up Lisa and her son and having a disrespectful attitude toward her teacher was one thing, but why did she cancel the engagement?

very much?

Moreover, even a ten–year–old would understand that the Johnson Family was Hedy’s capital to establish herself at Lowell High School.

Without the Johnson Family, how would she be able to compete against Lisa and her son?

Oliver’s expression turned unpleasant.

In his mind, even if this marriage was canceled, Hedy should have exited with a lower–class attitude of “blessing and resignation.”

Instead, she looked at him with a face full of disgust and contempt, as if he wasn’t worthy of her!
