The teachers nearby rushed forward to stop them after seeing how hard the two slaps landed.

Even the sound alone could make one feel the soreness.

"Now do you know why I hit you?" Andrew Wilson roared,

"As a role model, you don't know how to educate your students properly. You even used such brutal force on a five-year-old child who knows nothing. Look at the injuries on his body!"

The other teachers helped her up.

The teacher covered half of her face with her right hand and said grievously, "I didn't do it. I was just a substitute teacher who had just arrived. It was Nathan, the supervisor of the Academic Affairs Office, who did it. I have nothing to do with it."

"Nathan, the supervisor?" Andrew Wilson frowned and said,

"Why would a supervisor have a problem with a child?"

"I don't know. On the first day that Ryan Wilson came here, Nathan the supervisor of the Academic Affairs Office, called me over and asked me to be stricter with this child. He didn't tell me the reason," the teacher explained hastily, afraid of getting another slap if she didn't answer quickly enough.

Could it be that this matter really had nothing to do with this guardian teacher? Andrew Wilson still didn't believe that this teacher was completely unaware.

"So, according to what you said, the scars on Ryan Wilson's body were not caused by you?"

"Yes, as a new teacher, I don't have the courage to do that. The scars on his body were caused by Nathan, the supervisor of the Academic Affairs Office."

As soon as these words came out, the other teachers around were shocked.

They didn't expect this teacher to speak like this because they all dared not offend Nathan, the supervisor.

Nathan had a lot of authority when he spoke, and they would rather offend the principal than make him unhappy.

"Okay, I got it. The two slaps just now were a lesson for you. As a guardian teacher, you did not fulfill your responsibilities. You were completely unaware of the serious injuries on the child's body. I hope you can be a good teacher in the future."

"Nathan, the supervisor!!! "

Andrew Wilson muttered to himself.

"Smack!"

With a loud sound, Andrew Wilson slapped the table, and the table leg broke and collapsed in front of everyone.

The people present stared at the scene with their mouths open, and the teacher who was slapped suddenly became alert.

If that slap had landed on her, she would have either died or spent the rest of her life in a wheelchair from the concussion.

Upon seeing this, a thin female teacher took a slow step forward and timidly asked, "Can you help us with something?"

Help?

Hearing this, Andrew Wilson turned his head and looked at the female teacher who couldn't even raise her head, and asked, "You educate students like this, and you want me to help you? Do you think that's possible?"

"You should trust Ryan Wilson's guardian teacher. She doesn't want this either. It's just that the head of the education department, Supervisor Nathan, is pressuring us to do things we don't want to do, and even using this to force us to do even more outrageous things," the teacher's voice suddenly choked up.

"Yes, Supervisor Nathan is always like this."

"The substitute teacher for Ryan Wilson has just arrived. The previous one left because Supervisor Nathan harassed her. So you must teach Supervisor Nathan a lesson for us." Other teachers quickly nodded in agreement.

Andrew Wilson glanced at the teacher who had just been slapped twice by him, standing there calmly and said, "Okay, I promise you. Indeed, as you said, I won't let him off just for bullying Ryan Wilson."

"Where is Supervisor Nathan now?"

"He's not in school. He clocks in and leaves during work hours, and he comes back to clock out at 5 pm. You can't see him in person all day."

"Isn't anyone controlling him?"

"Who dares to provoke him? His father is the dean of education, and even the principal greets him with respect."

"Okay, I got it. Remember to notify me in the clinic at 5 pm." After speaking, Andrew Wilson turned and walked towards the door.

A few minutes later, Andrew Wilson arrived at the school clinic and lifted Ryan Wilson's clothes, revealing bruises of purple and blue.

It deeply pierced his heart and ignited a raging anger within him.

He took out his phone and dialed a number he hadn't contacted in a long time.

After the call was connected, Andrew Wilson lowered his voice and said, "Do you know who l am?"

On the other end of the phone, there was a moment of silence before the voice said, "You're Mr. Andrew, why have you come back?"

"Do I need to report to you when I come back?"

"No, no, no, how could I dare to ask about Mr. Andrew's whereabouts? I spoke out of turn. It's just that I haven't followed you for a long time and forgot my manners."

"Alright, I'm currently at the Bright Mind's Kindergarten School in Los Angeles City. I want to take care of someone here who has a certain status in the area."

"Understood."

After speaking, Andrew Wilson hung up the phone and picked up the alcohol that the doctor had handed him, gently rubbing it on Ryan's body.

In the military compound, Robert White was perplexed by this matter.

When did a nobleman like him become so hesitant? Even if it was to take care of one person, let alone ten or even a hundred, it would be a piece of cake.

Forget it, don't think too much about it. Since the king has returned, it's better to go and pay respects early.

At the entrance to the Crown Hotel, Camila stumbled out, clutching the railing.

Her eyes were hazy as she looked around, feeling a numbness in her brain.

"Mr. Joe, can we sign the contract now? This cooperation will be very beneficial for you, and your family will look up to you if you sign it."

A middle-aged man in his forties followed her out and lit a cigar, taking a deep breath as he looked Camila up and down.

"Camila, this contract is worth a lot. If you sign it, your family will definitely be impressed. No matter who signs this project, it will be of great value to them. Of course, I would prefer to work with you."

A gust of wind blew, and Camila's cheeks became even redder from the alcohol.

She had a unique charm.

Camila smiled and said, "Since Mr. Joe is so confident in this cooperation and is willing to help me, let's sign the contract now."

"Hey, things shouldn't progress so quickly. When things go too smoothly, people tend to take them for granted," Joe exhaled a puff of smoke and flashed a wicked smile.

Camila's face changed, she pursed her lips and forced a smile. "We've had dinner and drinks, Mr. Joe. I don't understand why you still won't sign this Contract." Joe burst out laughing.

"Whether or not we sign this contract is entirely up to you, not me."

"What do you mean?" Camila asked.

"What do you think?" Joe replied.

Before Camila could react, Joe reached out and wrapped his arm around her slender waist.

"We can sign the contract as early as tomorrow morning." The close contact, coupled with the smell of smoke, made Camila feel sick.

She instinctively took a step back and pushed away Joe's wandering hand. "Mr. Joe, please respect yourself. I am not that kind of person."

Joe's face changed dramatically, and he angrily threw away his cigarette.

"Camila, let me be clear. There are many people who want to sign this contract with me. If you don't accompany me tonight, I won't sign this contract with you. You should know the importance of this contract to you. Whether or not you can return to your family depends on your decision tonight."

Camila's face turned pale, and the redness on her cheeks disappeared.

She understood that this was her family's last hope for her. If she couldn't secure this contract, she would never be able to return to her family and would have to find a new path in life.

She would no longer have any relationship with the Smith family.

She looked up at the sky, tears welling up in her eyes.

Joe saw this scene and immediately comforted her, "I know you are raising your child alone, and the father has never taken responsibility. It's not easy for you, and you are constantly being neglected at home. If you didn't sign this contract, you would be kicked out and lose all your sources of income." Camila remained silent.

Joe quickly added, "If you agree to accompany me today, I will take care of all your expenses in the future, and I am willing to support your child until they are grown up and independent."

After speaking, Joe put his hand on Camila's shoulder. If she remained silent for five seconds without dodging, he would have hugged her and satisfied his evil desires.

As for his promise to take care of her and her child's expenses, that was something for the future, and no one could predict the future.

Joe was secretly pleased with himself.

However, what Joe didn't expect was that before his hand could touch Camila's shoulder, she took a step back and clearly showed resistance.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Joe, l'm not that kind of person." After speaking, she walked to the side of the road, hailed a taxi, and left Joe alone at the hotel entrance.

Looking at Camila's departing figure, all of Joe's plans were ruined.

He cursed, "What are you pretending to be so high and mighty for? One day, you will kneel in front of me and beg for my forgiveness."

In the taxi, Camila couldn't hold back her tears any longer.

The tears fell like a dam bursting. She wasn't crying because of Joe's harassment, but because of his words about her fatherless child.

After all this time, have you really disappeared, or have you forgotten about me?

Tears continued to fall as she looked out the window at the tall buildings.

She murmured, "When will you come back? I really can't hold on anymore."

    "This is what Ethan, James Smith's father, said. James Smith is currently in the same office as Ethan. Ethan overheard Camila's phone call, where she mentioned that Mercy was hospitalized and needed money. He snatched the phone from James Smith hand and said, " Mercy doesn't deserve to be a daughter-in-law of our Smith family. She's sick now and wants us to pay for her treatment? No way. I won't give a penny to her. "James, listen to me. If you dare to secretly give money to Mercy for her treatment, you won't be able to stay in this Smith family anymore. You can leave with her." Ethan's voice on the phone was cold and heartless, without any trace of affection as before. After he finished speaking, he handed the phone back to James Smith. Disappointed, James Smith said, "Camila, it's not that Dad doesn't want to help you. You heard your grandfather's attitude just now. If I help your mother get treatment, I will also be kicked out of the Smith family." "Is money and socia

    Camila quickly found the pill from Mercy's pocket and put it into Mercy's mouth, thinking that she would feel better after taking the medicine, but it didn't work. "Mom's illness is serious this time, and the pill doesn't have much effect. Andrew Wilson, call 911 and let the ambulance come quickly. Mom needs to be taken to the hospital for treatment," Camila said anxiously. Andrew Wilson immediately took out his phone and called for an ambulance to take Mercy to the hospital. Mercy's condition was a bit serious this time and she was taken directly to the intensive care unit. "It's all my fault. If it weren't for me, Mom wouldn't have been so angry that she had to go to the hospital," Camila kept walking outside the emergency room, blaming herself. Andrew Wilson stood by Camila's side without saying a Word. He knew that silence was the best attitude for him now. If he said one more word, Camila might vent her anger on him. But Andrew Wilson couldn't bear to see Camila

    "This is absolutely impossible. If you still have me as your mother in your eyes, then you need to stay far away from Andrew Wilson. If you insist on marrying him, then consider me dead. I won't be your mother anymore since I became a doctor." Mercy's eyes glanced at Andrew Wilson with disdain. In her eyes, he was still the same pathetic person as five years ago. Inside the house, Ryan heard the commotion in the living room and ran out crying in fear. She ran to Camila, who immediately hugged her and comforted him. Mercy, who was originally fierce and menacing, suddenly saw Ryan in front of her and her face changed drastically. Ryan was crying even harder, so Mercy quickly took her from Camila's arms. "I'm sorry, Ryan. Grandma was too harsh and Scared you. Grandma will take you out to buy some delicious food. Don't cry anymore," Mercy said gently, holding Ryan. "What's going on, Mom? Why are you suddenly so gentle? It's like you're a completely different person from

  • CHAPTER 91

    After Mercy hung up Camila's phone call, Camila's tone immediately became low. Andrew Wilson went up to comfort her. Camila's mother was named Mercy, which sounded a bit rustic, but her background was extraordinary. In the provincial capital, the Newton family was considered a first-class aristocratic family, ranking among the top of the wealthy families. With Mercy's background, it was impossible for her to be interested in someone from a second-rate family like the Smith's. However, when James' Smith was young, he was very handsome and talented. Mercy was attracted to him at first sight. Ignoring the opposition of her family, Mercy got pregnant before marriage and forced herself to marry into the Smith family. This caused a rift between her and her family. But one time, James' Smith accompanied a client to dinner for work and hired a singing companion. When Mercy found out, she was angry and left the Smith family, never to return. Originally, James Smith

    The phone rang a few times before it was answered. "Amelia, what's up? You actually remembered to call me. Is it that womanizer James Smith who asked you to call me? After all these years, he finally remembers me," came an impatient voice from the other end. Amelia's eyes lit up and a cold smile appeared on her face as she said, "Sister-in-law, I'm calling you today because there's something urgent I need to tell you about your woman, Camila. It's not because of my brother. He's changed now." "What's going on?" Mercy's voice suddenly became heavy. "Amelia, tell me what's been happening with Camila lately." Ever since Camila decided to give birth to Ryan, Mercy had decided to sever ties with her daughter. But like Camila, Mercy had a soft heart. When she heard that her daughter was in trouble, she couldn't help but worry. "Amelia, you have to tell me everything you know. Camila is my only daughter, and I don't want her to suffer," Mercy said anxiously. As she liste

    Upon hearing his father's words, James Smith felt relieved. Now, all he could think about was how to take responsibility for the contracted project and restore his position in the Smith family. Meanwhile, Camila walked out of the Smith Group building with a big smile on her face. Downstairs, Andrew Wilson was still sitting on a rock, smoking. When he saw Camila approaching, he put out his cigarette and walked over to her. "Did your grandfather and father give you a hard time?" he asked. Camila happily shook her head and said, "No, and I have some good news to tell you. Guess what it is." "I have no idea what it could be. There are so many things that could make me happy. I don't even know where to start," Andrew Wilson replied, shaking his head. It wasn't that he didn't want to guess, but he was easily satisfied as long as Camila and Andrew Wilson were happy. Seeing that Andrew Wilson had no intention of guessing, Camila became frustrated and walked away, with
