Creek High School finally announced the disciplinary action for Lily’s assault on her classmates.

The Head of Student Affairs announced over the intercom, “Heather, Alexis, and ten other students were engaged in bullying, which is despicable and reflects poorly on their character. As a consequence, the school has issued the following punishments

“Heather and Alexis will get major disciplinary marks on their records, while the other students involved will receive minor marks. We hope all students will learn from this.”

The entire school was in an uproar.

In Class 1, Shannon gripped her pen tightly, scribbling forcefully in her notebook. She tore the pages apart with her strong grip. Her eyes were cold and glaring, her teeth grinding audibly

Why? Lily had committed a serious offense, but the school didn’t punish her.

Shannon didn’t believe the principal’s actions were out of respect for Lily. She suspected Laid was intervening on Lily’s behalf.

She was furious. She couldn’t understand what was so special about Lily. Plus, why would Loid go to such lengths for her?

Despite her poor academic performance, her tendency to start tights, her arrogance, and her cruel methods, Lold didn’t seem to care. Did he really like Lily that much?

Shannon ripped pages out of her notebook angrily, and the hatred in her eyes grew stronger.

“I won’t let you take Loid from me! I definitely won’t!” She was determined.

Class 18.

At noon, Lily didn’t join Anya and the others for lunch. She put on a baseball cap and went to a restaurant outside of school.

La Luna Rossa was a relatively high–end restaurant in Lagersfield City. Lily went in and quoted a room number. Then, a walter escorted her to the private room.

When the door was pushed open, a man in his fifties saw her and stood up. He greeted her with a gentle smile.

“Ms. Brooks

“Marwell, just call me Lily, Lily said, sitting across from the man. She placed her baseball cap on the table.

She glanced at the well–dressed man in front of her. He had handsome features and a charming demeanor. Despite being in his fifties, he showed no signs of aging However, his eyes had a sharp edge. He excoded authority, though he toned it down in front of Lily. He was the true power holder in Lagersfield City, Maxwell Lane.

In terms of assets, the Lane family could not compare to the Fletcher or Martinez familles, but Maxwell Lane was still the boss of Lagersfield City. Even Anthony didn’t dare to underestimate them.

Lily looked away and leaned back in her chair. She spoke slowly, “I’m here to discuss Bobby and Poppy”

Maxwell filled Lily’s cup with tea and assured her, “Don’t worry, they are safe and well taken care of at my place.”

Lily glanced at him and handed her phone to Maxwell “Take a look at this first”

As Maxwell took the phone, his face changed dramatically. He stood up abruptly, shocked. “How could this happen?””

“Maxwell, you’re busy with your business, and you might not have time for family matters” Lily said, tapping the table with one hand. Her tone was indifferent, but there was a hint of hostility in her eyes.

“Beatrice suspects they are your illegitimate children and has caused them a lot of trouble. This is not the first time this has happened.”

Lily lifted her eyelids slightly, her voice somewhat cold. “I’ve handled everyone involved in this matter. As for Beatrice, I’m leaving her to you, Maxwell

Tentrusted them to you because I believed you would care for them. But now, I can’t let them stay in the Lane family with peace of mind”
