Amidst the surrounding discussion, Jimmy slowly regained his composure, looking up at Robin, who had an indifferent expression. 

Knowing that this young man was not going to be easy to deal with, Jimmy quickly took out his phone and called the principal, Ashton Green. 

“What’s the matter? Jimmy, why are you calling me at this time?” Ashton asked impatiently. He was currently on his lunch break, and he yawned, patting the face of the woman lying in his arms. 

Jimmy wiped off the blood at the corner of his mouth and said, “Mr. Green, something has happened! Isla’s father brought a few people to cause trouble, and they’re insisting that we cannot move her body. They’re demanding an explanation from the school and the parents of the other girls.” 

There was a moment of silence before Ashton spoke lazily. “Call the school’s security guards and get them to deal with the body! Tell them that it was a suicide and that we’re already being kind by not asking them to pay for damages!” 

Jimmy lowered his voice as he answered, “Mr. Green, these people are a little stubborn. Can you come to take care of this? There are also many parents and reporters here. I’m afraid the situation will escalate even further.” 

Jimmy, what can I even say about you? Can’t you even handle such a small matter?” Ashton complained. He pushed the woman away and continued impatiently. “Tm on my way now!” 

Before long, a middle–aged chubby man who was in his forties made his way slowly over to the principal’s .office, yawning. 

Ashton looked at the parents and reporters around and frowned slightly. 

Then he glanced at Robin, who was standing among the crowd. He was sure this was the man Jimmy had mentioned over the phone earlier. 

Ashton shook his head, sneering. Young men are indeed arrogant and ignorant. 

As the principal, Ashton had already known that Isla was being bullied. 

Isla’s homeroom teacher had reported the incident to him. 

However, the student who was targeting Isla was Lilly Sloan, who came from a well–off–background. 

Lilly’s father was Tyson Sloan, a wealthy businessman who was investing in projects in Harmonfield. Tyson also owned Globaltube International. 

Tyson was originally from Brighton and had close ties with the officials there. 

Upon hearing about this matter, Ashton thought of an idea. 

Ashton had used this situation with Isla to gain favor with the Sloans. 

Despite Isla’s homeroom teacher reporting this matter several times, Ashton had chosen not to do

anything. 

He had not expected Isla to actually commit suicide. 

After the incident. Ashton immediately privately contacted Lilly’s mother, Madison Sloan. 

Madison had told Ashton directly that Isla’s suicide was none of their business.

If Isla’s father caused a scene, they didn’t mind making a private compensation of 30,000 to 50,000 dollars. 

However, Madison had made it clear that they would not meet with Isla’s parents. 

Ashton had not expected Isla’s father to call others and cause a scene. 

Ashton had looked into Isla’s background as well. 

Isla’s father, Jonah, was merely the general manager of a company in Southvale that had some business dealing with the Dunn group. 

In terms of wealth and background, Jonah could not compare to Tyson. 

Jonah had no strong background and was nothing compared to the Sloans. 

The plan was to give Jonah some money and send him away. 

If they were to mention the Sloans, Ashton was sure that Jonah would accept the compensation proposal. After all, someone like Jonah would not dare to go up against the Sloans. 

As such, after Isla had committed suicide, Ashton immediately instructed Jimmy to deal with her body as soon as possible. 

However, Jonah demanded an explanation from the school and the Sloans. 

Under the protection of two security guards, Ashton approached the group and said impatiently, “Who are you? Are you trying to cause trouble here? I’m warning you! Your actions are already against the law! Step aside immediately and allow them to clear the body! Why do you want to leave her here? Can’t you tell that her body is already starting to smell?” 

Jonah shouted at the staff furiously. “I’ll have it out with whoever tries to touch my daughter!” 

Ashton retorted angrily. “What are you trying to do? If you want to cause trouble, we will call the police!” 

“Are you blind?” Robin raised an eyebrow, his voice cold. “Haven’t you seen the video online? This girl was treated with such cruelty in your school. Is this the attitude a princi 

should have?” 

Ashton was stunned: 

He had not expected the young man to insult him so directly. 

Ashton studied Robin and realized that he did not recognize him. 

“Fine, as a teacher and a civilized person, I won’t hold against you, Ashton shook his head disdainfully

“Are you after compensation? Fine! It’s normal for there to be scuffles between students. You can’t blame the death of your child on a single incident. A child’s background plays an important part in their development. You should be reflecting on yourselves. Anyway, there’s no point talking about this anymore!” 

Ashton continued. “She committed suicide here, so we’ll just consider this our bad luck. Once they take her body away. I promise to compensate you with 20,000 dollars for the mental stress. Happy now?” 

Talia could no longer hold back her anger and questioned Ashton directly, “As the principal, is this how you’re dealing with a case of bullying that directly led to a student’s suicide? Is this the process of handling such a big matter? Is this in line with the national regulations? The children are entrusted to you, yet you’re not taking any responsibility! Now that she has killed herself, you try to gloss everything over and avoid responsibility? You even say such horrible thing! Are you even human?” 

Ashton sneered. You can insult me. I’m a civilized and educated teacher. I won’t lower myself to your level. As for how I handle things here. I’m the principal and I will do as I see fit. I have the final say here! So what if you’re unhappy with it? You can’t do anything about it!” 

Listening to Ashton’s domineering words, Jimmy’s eyes shone with admiration. 

After all, he used to be a teacher, so he knows all the right things to say! 

Jimmy smiled at Ashton, “Mr. Green, you are absolutely right.” 

Freya spoke now, her voice cold. “Mr. Green, is this the kind of thing a principal should say: 

Ashton raised an eyebrow, studying Freya before smirking, “What did I say? As if I need you to tell me how to behave? I have been a teacher for nearly 20 years and have taught many students. When I started teaching, you were probably not even born.” 

As he said this, Ashton took a deep breath and continued, “Since you’re all young, I’ll say a little more. After all, this is my occupational hazard as a teacher. You need to know how to be sensible and read the room. Otherwise, the only one who will suffer is you. Listen, the girl who led the group in bullying Isla is Lilly Sloan. Her father is a wealthy businessman from Brighton who is investing in projects in Harmonfield. Lilly’s mother is the daughter of a wealthy family in Brighton as well. Need I say more? It’s just the death of one child. What’s the big deal? Why are you causing unnecessary trouble for yourselves?”
