As soon as Allison got back to school, she was called to the counselor Daniel Harris‘ office.

Before she even stepped inside, she heard a loud, arrogant woman’s voice from within. “She’s just a poor student, but she dares to hit someone in school! We should call the police! Look at Caroline. She almost got a concussion from that hit! If you don’t give me a proper solution, I won’t let this go!”
This woman was Aurora Turner, Caroline’s mom, all decked out in jewels and looking aggressive.
Caroline, sitting next to her, had a bandage on her forehead and looked a bit pitiful.
“It happened outside the school,” Daniel corrected with a smile.
Aurora shouted, “Is she not a student of New York University just because it happened outside? Isn’t it your business? Fine. I’ll call the police!”
“Don’t! Once the police get involved, things will blow up, hurting the school’s reputation and not being good for Caroline either,”
Daniel said.
Also present was Ethan Scott, a professor who held a certain academic standing in New York University’s chemistry department. He was the one who’d been saving a place for Allison at the school.

Allison was his most promising student, so he said, “Allison was

the school values her a lot. If there are no major character flaws, I hope you can go easy on her, give her a chance, and not be so ruthless. Besides, Caroline is also one of my students. I don’t want an irreconcilable conflict between them.”
Aurora’s expression changed slightly as she thought.
Caroline is our family’s hope. We want her to follow her aunt’s path, join Dominion Group, and become someone important.
If we offend Ethan over this, it will affect Caroline’s studies. I didn’t expect the school to value that poor student so much.
“Alright. Then let her apologize to Caroline. If her attitude satisfies me, I’ll consider forgiving her.” Aurora softened her
attitude.
There was a knock on the door, and Allison walked into the office. “Mr. Harris, Mr. Scott, what’s wrong?”
“Hitting someone is wrong. Caroline’s mother is reasonable and just wants an apology. Show some sincerity,” Daniel urged.
Allison looked at Caroline, whose face was full of reluctance and hatred, as if she wanted to devour Allison alive.
There was a thud as an expensive handbag dropped to the floor.
But Aurora didn’t seem to notice it. She stared at Allison’s face in shock, like she’d seen a ghost.
Everyone in the room noticed her strange behavior, especially Allison, who was puzzled.

Why is she looking at me like that? Could she know me?

No way. I have never had contact with people from New York.
“Mom, what’s wrong with you?” Caroline picked up the bag from the floor and asked.
Aurora returned to her senses and tried to control her emotions. “I think she must be expelled.”
“You just said she should apologize. Why are you going back on your word?” Ethan asked.
“Mr. Scott, just because you value talent, does that mean you can ignore the safety of other students? What kind of school would that be? Parents wouldn’t feel safe sending their kids here. My sister is the research director at Dominion Group. Should I ask her to talk to you?” Aurora was firm.
“If you offend my aunt, Dominion Group might just pull their projects. Then the school would be losing more than it gains,” Caroline said arrogantly.
While they were arguing nonstop inside, they didn’t notice a tall and cold figure passing by the window.
Behind him were his secretary, Jaxon, and New York
University’s principal, Cooper Roberts,
When Richard stopped, Cooper’s forehead broke out in a cold
sweat.

He is truly someone who can decide people’s fates.
Offending Dominion Group means she can say goodbye to a bright future. Even the school will be implicated and held accountable!
