Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1208
Yazmin wasnât just jealous of Naomiâs capabilities either. In fact, she was even more irked by the fact that Naomi had been chosen to be the top beauty in the school!
The moment she found out about that, Yazmin nearly went mad with rage. As long as Naomi existed, Yazmin felt that she would always remain in her shadow.
ââ¦Humph! Donât you know how late you are? You almost had me wondering whether you were too frightened to come for fear youâd get tossed into jail immediately! You even brought some guy with you!
Are you planning to scare me with him or something? Just look at how shabby he looks!â said Yazmin right off the bat.
Simply choosing to ignore her, Naomi then began explaining her point of view to the officers and the principal.
In the end, they werenât able to arrive at an immediate conclusion. With that said, the officers then told them that they would probably return again the day after. They also told Naomi to be prepared at all times, stating that as long as they could contact her at all times, she should be fine.
The moment the officers left after saying that, Yazmin immediately turned to look at Naomi before shouting coldly, âHumph! Even if there isnât an immediate conclusion, I assure you that the incident wonât end until the culprit is caught! And here I was thinking that you were a woman with good temperament before this⦠To think that youâd actually steal the scholarship money! Donât you have a guilty conscience at all? Itâs truly a wonder how you were chosen to be the most exceptional teacher in the first place!â
âHonestly, you of all people should know what exactly took place⦠Best be careful now⦠Donât get into too much trouble or youâll end up hurting yourself instead!â sneered Gerald as he glared icily at Yazmin.
Suddenly being stared at like that, Yazmin felt herself go pale as she gulped slightly.
Naomi herself turned to look at Gerald in bewilderment.
ââ¦Why would he say such a thingâ¦? Is he assuming that Yazmin stole the money and placed the blame on me insteadâ¦? But thatâs impossible! Yazmin was out on a business trip when the incident happened⦠Besides, she wasnât even aware that I had taken the scholarship out at that point in timeâ¦
Heck, not even my mom knew back then! With that in mind, Iâm the only possible person to know about this⦠Itâs the reason why Yazmin immediately placed the blame on meâ¦â Naomi thought to herself.
ââ¦What⦠What do you mean by that? Donât get into too much trouble or Iâll end up hurting myself?
Listen, youâd better tell me what you mean by that, or Iâm not letting you leave the school alive!â replied Yazmin, her anxiety evident in her voice.
âOh, Iâm sure you know exactly what I mean⦠Either way, letâs just wait till tomorrow. Iâll share the truth behind all this and I hope someone wonât end up crying then!â said Gerald as he led Naomi out of the office.
Once they had left, Yazminâs eyes grew fierce as she left the office and instantly began making a phone call.
ââ¦Hubby? Iâm facing some issues⦠Naomi called over some guy and he seems to be targeting me!
What should I doâ¦?â asked Yazmin.
âWorry not. Iâll investigate his background right this instant!â
âThatâs great to hear! Hah! Iâll definitely ruin Naomi this time⦠As for the student, think of a way to keep her quiet and obedient! Iâm glad that everything is still under controlâ replied Yazmin in a vicious voice before hanging up.
Meanwhile, Gerald and Naomi were already in his car. However, it wasnât long before Naomi realized that they werenât heading back to her home.
ââ¦Geraldâ¦? Where are we headed to?â asked Naomi.
âWell, about that student of yours⦠Sherry, was it? Could you tell me where she lives?â asked Gerald in return.
ââ¦Huh? You want to meet Sherry? For what reasonâ¦? Sheâs an obedient child and sheâs already given her part of the testimony⦠I assure you that sheâs only told them the truth, and I truly hope that she did so rather than choose to lie just to defend me⦠That way, she wonât have too much to weigh on her mind!â replied Naomi.
âOh, I could tell that sheâs obedient. However, I could also tell that she was facing another issue, a very troubling one at that. If we donât act fast she could end up falling into an endless abyss⦠So again, where does she live?â
