Chapter 369
The principal’s status in the school had never been high.

….
Because the rules of the school were monopolized by these second-generation rich heirs, she was merely a figurehead.

Last time, when it came to expelling Amy, she felt it was too much and had even spoken a few words on Amy’s behalf.

This time, she couldn’t help but pull aside Mrs. Jones and Keira, whispering, “Stop causing a scene. The Olsen family became the new school trustees all because of you two. Christina is fighting for this triumph. Keeping up this fuss is pointless; you might as well hurry up and find a good school for the kids.”

At this, she sighed again. “However, as far as I know, Miss Olsen is taking this seriously this time. Not only has she expelled you, but she has also spread the news in the circle. You won’t find a good school in Clance; I think going abroad could be another path.”

Her well-meaning advice was overheard by Miss Kelly, who instantly let out a cold laugh. “Why do you talk so much? If you are really siding with them, I might as well tell Miss Olsen about it. Let’s see if she decides to transfer you to a school that will take those kids. How about that?”

Upon hearing this, the principal frowned and said, “I was merely offering them a suggestion, Miss Kelly. I advise you not to go too far. You should know when to stop. No matter what, you shouldn’t take your anger out on the children. They are innocent.”

“Innocent? Their parents offended Miss Olsen, so they’re not innocent!”

The principal couldn’t stand to listen anymore. “Enough is enough. Besides, strictly speaking, Christina isn’t a trustee yet. She currently doesn’t have the authority to expel any students.”

With her arms crossed, Miss Kelly looked every inch the villain with her arrogant demeanor. “See? The appointment decree from the Olsen family has arrived. Miss Olsen will soon take her position.”

After saying that, she nodded in another direction.

Following her gaze, everyone turned to see Uncle Olsen’s secretary and were suddenly stunned.

The principal gave a bitter smile, looking toward Mrs. Jones and Keira.

She sighed and looked back at Miss Kelly. “I can’t stand this anymore. First, you expelled Amy, and after that, it’s Brandon. What’s next? Will Christina’s son become the tyrant of the school? This is not good for the kids! I must speak up about this matter!”

Miss Kelly stepped forward, pushing her a little. “You old thing, what do you have to say? Go ahead and say it. I’ll call Miss Christina right now and let you say as much as you want. It’d be perfect—once you’re fired, I might even get a promotion.”

Chest heaving with anger, the principal said, “You…you’re a disgrace to all teachers! How can the teaching profession have someone like you who’s only concerned about climbing up the ladder? You’re completely disregarding the most basic principles of being human!”

“The most basic principles? In the face of absolute power, all that is useless! You old thing, you’ve been in early childhood education for so many years, and sure, you’ve been good to the children, but what’s the result?”

Miss Kelly stepped forward, looking directly at her. “A few years ago, you had the chance to be promoted and transferred, right? But because you didn’t know how to please Miss Olsen, you’ve been stuck here, hogging the principal position and preventing the rest of us from advancing. It’d be best if you talked it out with Miss Olsen, then leave and let me have a shot at being principal!”

Mrs. Jones frowned. “Miss Kelly, you need to have a conscience. If you keep this up, you’ll eventually destroy yourself!”

Miss Kelly spoke with arms folded. “Am I going to be struck by lightning? Do you think this is a TV drama? You’re from a wealthy family. Don’t you understand? Good and evil don’t always get their just desserts in this world!”

Her chin lifted slightly as she turned to Mrs. Jones and Keira. “You two had better kneel and beg Miss Olsen now to cool off. Maybe she’ll leave a way out for your children.”

Keira sneered softly. “What, the master hasn’t spoken yet, and the dog starts barking already?”

Upon hearing this, Miss Kelly flew into a rage. “Who are you calling a dog?”

“Whoever speaks first.”

“You… you…”

Miss Kelly pointed at her, furious, and then turned to George. “George, do you see that? Remember, if you can’t attend school in the future, it’s all because of this person. It’s her who offended me!”

George looked blankly at Keira, then at Mrs. Jones, before finally leaning into Mrs. Jones’s embrace.

Mrs. Jones said angrily, “Why are you suddenly picking on the child again? A teacher like you is nothing but a disgrace to civility! One rotten apple spoils the whole barrel!”

Miss Kelly lifted her chin. “Even if that’s the case, I still stay here. And you? You can only beg around for your child to get into a good school!”

She huffed and turned to the principal. “And you, I’ll remember you! You’re helping these two, and I’ll definitely tell Miss Olsen!”

The principal took a deep breath. “Go ahead and tell her. I’ve wanted to resign for a long time! I’m done with this job!” Tears welled up in her eyes.

When she first started in this profession, it was out of genuine love for children. For so many years, she had strived to be a good teacher, eager to educate every student well. But her nightmare began three years ago when Christina’s son enrolled.

Because Christina’s son was overweight, which was unhealthy for his physical development, she tried to control his diet a bit. However, after the little guy went home and cried, Christina immediately charged into the school and filled the classroom with snacks. The children, used to eating snacks all the time, no longer enjoyed their meals.

She wanted to intervene, but after bringing it up a few times, Christina scolded her, telling her to mind her own business. Later on, her son became the school’s bully, leading other children to torment the weaker ones. Countless children had been bullied. But as soon as the parents realized it was the Olsen family’s doing, they could only coax their children to appease the bully, thus making him increasingly audacious.

Indeed, no one can fight against money.

The Olsen family was now on the board of directors, and Christina had become even more unbridled. Amy and George were such good children, but she expelled them on a whim.

Hearing the principal’s words, Miss Kelly suddenly laughed. “You’ll resign? Miss Olsen won’t give you that chance. You’ll definitely be fired!”

Keira laughed sarcastically upon hearing this. “I actually offer you the opportunity to resign. Will you take it?”

Miss Kelly looked stunned for a moment, then laughed. “What kind of nonsense are you talking about here? Offering me a chance? Miss Olsen’s appointment decree has already arrived. What chance can you give me? If one didn’t know better, they might think you are our board director!”

No sooner had she finished speaking than Uncle Olsen’s secretary, having had enough of the spectacle and Miss Kelly’s insolence, spoke up, “Well, she is.”
