Chapter 167 Industry Scum

Chapter 167 Industry Scum

"Uncle, it's... it's nothing! Just a misunderstanding..." Sterling wasn't stupid, he could tell that Philipneeded something from Lachlan at this moment.

"Yes, just a misunderstanding! It's all good... all good..." Molly also chimed in with a flicker in hereyes.

"It was just kids being kids." Lily, the principal, also looked flustered.

"Nothing happened? Weren't you two trying to kick my daughter out of school and make me unableto survive in Edoland?"

"This principal said my daughter was a troublemaker and wanted to expel her?"

"And now everything is fine?"

Lachlan asked with a calm face. As soon as he finished speaking, Philip's expression changed andanger flashed across his face.

Slap! Slap!

Two consecutive slaps landed heavily on Sterling and Molly's faces. "You bastards! How dare youthreaten Mr. Willis?"

Sterling and Molly covered their faces with an anxious look on their faces. "Uncle... I-I was justjoking," Sterling stammered.

Molly covered her face as tears streamed down her cheeks. Their son pouted as he saw his parentsbeing hit, scared but not daring to cry out loud.

The principal and Alicia shuddered at the same time. Although the slaps didn't land on them, theirfaces turned red nonetheless.

"Mr. Willis, what exactly happened? You tell me today and I will definitely help your child get justice,"Philip said sternly.

"In fact, there wasn't much going on; it was just kids playing around! This chubby kid pulled mydaughter's skirt so she beat him up for it. These two wouldn't let it go though; they even broughtschool security guards over here wanting to beat me up too."novelbin

"As for this principal and teacher here," Lachlan continued while pointing at them both, "they sawyour nephew getting hurt so they helped bite into me too; even wanting to expel my daughter!"

"That's all there is to it! I heard that you are the director of this kindergarten? Can you handle thismatter?"

If it were about himself personally, then Lachlan would naturally disdain making complaints, butwhen Nora was involved, no matter what he couldn't let his daughter be wronged like that again.

Yes indeed if this kindergarten didn't accept Nora, then he could always find another one for herinstead.

But Nora couldn't shake off the shadow in her heart, always remembering that she was expelledfrom school and had to transfer. In the future, when she changed to a new school, she might noteven be able to hold her head up high and might even develop an inferiority complex!

Lachlan would never allow this situation to happen!

So he briefly explained what happened.

After listening, Philip glared fiercely at Sterling and Molly. "You two apologize to Mr. Willis! If Mr.Willis doesn't forgive you today, Sterling, you and your wife can get out of the company!"

"And Jamie should also apologize to Mr. Willis's daughter!"

Sterling and Molly were scared pale when they heard they would be kicked out of the company.

What would they do if they couldn't work for Mclaughlin's Real Estate in the future? How could theycontinue living their extravagant lifestyle?

They were just distant relatives of Philip's family; not even his nephews! The relationship wasneither close nor far away.

Given Philip's attitude towards Lachlan - respectful and eager-to-please - there was no doubt thathe would really kick them out of the company for Lachlan!

"Mr. Willis, I'm sorry! I was blindfolded by my own eyesight! Please forgive me!" Sterling walked upto Lachlan with a very low waist.

"Mr. Willis, I won't dare anymore! You're a big man with great generosity; please forgive us!"

"We were wrong! You must forgive us... wah wah wah..." Molly pleaded pitifully while wiping awaytears.

The chubby Jamie also came over with a face full of grievances mixed with fear wanting toapologize to Nora.

Lachlan remained expressionless but waved his hand impatiently, "Let it go for children like him! Ifhe doesn't behave himself again then my daughter will just beat him herself!"

Although angry at what happened earlier on but Lachlan wouldn't stoop down so low as comparedwith dealing with such small kids!

"Yes sir thank you sir!"

"Jamie why don't you thank Mr. Willis?"

Sterling and Molly nodded their heads obsequiously while bowing down repeatedly before saying,"Yes sir thank you sir!"

The chubby boy obediently bowed down too, "Thank you Mr. Willis! Nora... I'm sorry..."

"It's okay..." Nora who had been looking sad in Lachlan's arms earlier now shook her head smilingly.

"Mr. Willis, how do you want me handle these two?" At this point Philip pointed at Lily and Aliciaasking solemnly.

The two of them shuddered, looking at Lachlan with fear and trepidation. "Mr. Willis, I'm sorry! Ipromise Nora will receive the best care at school!"

"Yes, yes! There won't be any other children bullying Nora in her class!" The principal and Aliciaboth assured him.

But Lachlan just sneered and didn't even look at the two women who were supposed to beeducators. "I don't want my daughter's school to have a principal and teachers who are so eager toplease others and discriminate against the poor. Keeping people like that in a school will onlycorrupt its atmosphere. What do you think, Mr. Mclaughlin?"

Lachlan was now returning Lily's words from earlier.

Philip nodded at his words before coldly addressing Lily and Alicia, "You're fired! Go get your payfrom accounting and get out of here! My kindergarten doesn't need scums like you in the teachingprofession."

As soon as he finished speaking, Lily and Alicia turned pale.

Eastview Kindergarten was one of Edoland's top schools with excellent treatment for its staffmembers.

Moreover, their salaries as principals were quite substantial.

The most important thing was that they were fired, rather than resigning or transferring to anotherjob! This was equivalent to completely killing their future prospects in this field!

These incidents would remain on their resumes! How can they aspire to be principals or classteachers in the future? Not even as ordinary teachers!

"No! Mr. Mclaughlin please don't do this! I'll work hard from now on!"

"Mr. Mclaughlin give me another chance please!" The principal knelt down directly before Philipcrying out for mercy.

In the next second she crawled over to Lachlan using every limb she had left; her glasses falling offalong with her dignity as she begged him pitifully, "Mr. Willis, I apologize to you sincerely. It was mymistake for not seeing your worth properly... Please help me plead with Mr. Mclaughlin forforgiveness. I know what I did wrong..."

"Even if you won't let me continue being a principal - just demote me if necessary but don't fire meplease!"

"I promise that from now on I'll definitely become a good teacher..." Lily knelt there sobbinguncontrollably while wiping snot all over herself trying desperately not lose everything she'd workedso hard for up until this point…

"Get lost," Lachlan said disgustedly as he watched tears fall onto his pants after kicking her awayunceremoniously.

Lily slumped there, sobbing uncontrollably as she glared at Lachlan with resentment and frustrationin her eyes.

"Why? Why did you fire me? Don't you have any faults of your own?" she demanded.
