Bruce mercilessly grabbed both girls by the hair and dragged them out of the office.
The two of them were still dizzy from the slaps and didn't even have time to react before their hair was yanked so hard it felt like it might be ripped off.
"Mom, help me!"
"Help! Please, save me!"
The two girls were screaming hysterically at their mothers for help while being dragged out by the burly Bruce.
This scene stunned everyone in the office. When Linda and Paula finally collected themselves, they rushed forward to try and save their daughters, only to be stopped by the bodyguards.
"What are you doing? This is illegal! Let go of my daughter right now!" Linda's voice trembled as she clenched her fists, trying to stay calm.
Just then, Ryan rushed in, drenched in sweat, followed by several other school management staff. They were all panting from running. As they arrived, they saw a bodyguard dragging two students out by their hair, while the parents in the office were yelling at the bodyguards surrounding them.
"Mr. Langley, what's going on?" Ryan asked.
Kaden wiped the sweat off his forehead, feeling utterly defeated. He didn't know what he had done to deserve to deal with these aggressive parents.
"Mr. Tucker, it all started because Danielle hit Ava and Nancy in the cafeteria. She dumped a tray full of food on their heads and then beat them up.
The two came to my office to complain and demanded Danielle be expelled. So, I called Danielle in and contacted both sides' parents.
"But when Nancy's mom arrived, she immediately started berating Danielle. Then Ava's mom joined in, blaming Danielle as well. After that, Danielle's family showed up and things escalated to this," explained Kaden.
Kaden rubbed the few strands of hair left on his head, completely baffled by how intense this university fight had become.
"Mr. Tucker, please save my daughter!" Paula begged. "This family is violent, and they even brought all these bodyguards. What are they trying to do? Intimidate us? If you don't stop them, my daughter will die at your school! I'm calling the police!" With that, Paula pulled out her phone.
Although Linda was afraid of the Darling family, nothing was more important than her daughter's safety. She glared at them and shouted, "How dare you attack my daughter! I won't let you get away with this!"
âYou won't let us get away? I won't let you off either. You think you can bluff us?" Vivian retorted coldly, her eyes icy with fury.
"You're still defending Danielle, huh? Do you even know she has cheated on you, or do you have a thing for humiliation? If I were you, I'd have dumped that disgusting tramp. You're really tolerating a lot just to stay connected to the Darling family. What a pathetic boy toy," Linda scoffed, turning her anger toward David. Her eyes were full of contempt.
She wouldn't dare openly insult the Darling family but had no qualms about lashing out at David, whom she assumed was just some leech. After all, how could anyone be so calm after being cheated on?
"What Linda didn't realize was that David was no ordinary man. His identity was so mysterious that even the Darling family rarely saw him, as he usually avoided public events.
"Who the hell are you calling pathetic? Ava and Nancy spread lies about me all over the school forums, claiming I was seducing men. Do you think the boys at this school are even worthy of my attention? I wanted to let it slide since we're classmates, but they kept pushing their luck and provoking me, so I had to teach them a lesson!" Danielle exploded with anger at Linda's words. She struggled to free herself from David's arms, ready to fight back.
David's mood lifted as he saw Danielle fiercely defending him. His lips curved into a pleased smile as he pulled her back into his embrace. "With me here, you don't need to get your hands dirty."
The bodyguards received David's instructions and kicked Linda in the chest, sending her flying several dozen feet. Her back slammed hard against a desk.
The pain was so intense that she clutched her chest with both hands, and her face was pale.
The school management staff and the Darling family froze in shock, not expecting such violence in the office.
The bodyguards strode up to Linda, who was too scared to feel the pain, tears streaming down her face. "Don't come closer. I'm from the Stuart family. How dare you do this to me!"
"Let my mom go!" Ava, barely able to speak after being beaten, cried desperately when she saw her mother also being attacked.
Ignoring Linda's pleas, the bodyguard grabbed one of her arms and broke it in a swift motion.
He then grabbed the other arm and did the same, breaking it just as easily.
Everyone in the office heard the chilling sound of bones snapping and gasped in horror.
Even the Darling family hadn't expected David's men to act with such ruthlessness.
"Linda's arms were both broken, leaving her drenched in cold sweat and unable to speak from the pain.
âYou... you guys hurt my mom like this? I'll call the police and sue you all!" Ava was trembling with pain and fury. Her eyes were filled with hatred as she looked at her mother lying on the ground, barely conscious.
Bruce slapped Ava across the face. "You'd better shut up, or I'll make sure you donât live to see another day."
Ava was terrified and instantly fell silent, not even daring to cry out loud.
"Ryan was also petrified. After snapping out of his daze, he swallowed hard and nervously addressed David, "Mr. Charrington, this is a school. Such actions don't look good."
"David had repeatedly warned him not to let Danielle be mistreated at school. Now David was angry. Ryan didn't know what to do.
"Mr. Tucker, would you like to know what it feels like to have your arms broken?" David said coldly.
Ryan's face turned pale with fear, and cold sweat drenched him. He glanced toward Danielle for help.
"Don't scare Mr. Tucker," Danielle spoke up, realizing David was venting his anger for her. Still, the president hadn't done anything wrong, and she felt bad seeing him so terrified.
David shot a glance at Danielle and said, "Okay."
"Ryan breathed a sigh of relief. He had no doubt David was capable of breaking his arms.
"David's gaze shifted to Paula. The bodyguard instantly understood and turned toward her.
"Frightened, Paula quickly pulled out her phone and threatened, "I'm on the phone with the police! Try touching me!"
"The bodyguard remained expressionless and punched Paula squarely in the mouth. When his fist dropped, she spat out blood, teeth scattering across the floor.
"My... my teeth... my teeth..." Paula sobbed incoherently.
"Just then, several police officers walked in. They paused in shock at the scene before them and sternly asked, "Who called the police?"
âMe," Paula mumbled through her toothless mouth.
Not A Small Town Girl (Danielle and David)
ï¤Chapter 153 The officers stared at her, bewildered by her condition, then scanned the room, taking in the sight of four people lying on the floor, badly beaten. "Who did this?"
âI did it," David said calmly, still seated, holding Danielle in his arms as if nothing had happened.
"The officer didn't know David. When he saw the scene and David's nonchalant demeanor, his already serious expression grew graver.
"Handcuff them and take them away," the officer directed the others.
