Chapter 172 Turning Tables

In ran an old man who was out of breath. His glasses were slightly askew, and there was something

affable in the way his large belly moved with his every breath.

It had been a while since Victor last dropped by the school, and his visit today was an impromptu as

well.

Even though the school had one of the worst academic performances in Southdale, he still had a few

students he needed to keep an eye on.

Victor had been delighted when he walked by the cafeteria earlier and overheard the

students saying Wynter had come.

With such a rare opportunity at hand, he decided he must have Wynter give a talk during the school

assembly:

However, when Victor heard the students say that Wynter was bound to be expelled after Karina had

demanded to meet her parents or guardians, he panicked.

Paying no mind to the heads of departments behind him, Victor immediately ran toward the school

office block.

The heads of departments exchanged a baffled look. None of them knew what had just happened.

Despite running as fast as he could, Victor still couldn’t make it in time. Regret filled him as he

questioned his decision to hire someone like Karina in the first place.

Karina did not sense Victor’s regret as she gaped at the man. Hurrying up to him, she asked, “Mr.

Lopez! What are you doing here?”

“Oh,” Wynter mused indifferently as enlightenment dawned upon her. “I see that Ms. Greene got her

job through connections.”

Horrified to hear this, Victor quickly shook off Karina’s hold as if to draw boundaries.

He stared at Wynter pleadingly and said, “There’s been a mistake, Wynter. You know I would never

allow this to happen. You are always welcome at our school.”

Karina’s eyes widened in disbelief. “Mr. Lopez! S–She refuses to learn and never scores well in her

exams. Not to mention, she has a horrible attendance. We can’t have a student like her in our school!”

“You could’ve been more accommodating of her,” Victor snapped. “You call yourself a teacher when

you don’t even know your own student’s aptitude?”

At this point, the school’s heads of departments had arrived at the scene. Students swarmed the office

block and were whispering among themselves.

Seeing this, Karina feigned resentment as she said tearfully, “If you’re here to defend Mrs. Yates and

give her a second chance, then I have nothing to say.

“However, letting Wynter stay here will bring shame to the medical industry! She can’t even set up an

IV drip properly! She’ll only embarrass us when she goes out into the workforce.”

“Ms. Greene has a point,” a student said.

“Our school may be average, but at least we’re working hard together. Wynter will only drag us down.”

Margaret squeezed Wynter’s hand when she heard this. She was worried that the girl would be

affected.

However, Wynter smiled nonchalantly and eased Margaret into a seat.

“Ignore them,” she said in an unbothered voice.

“Do you see how insubordinate she is, Mr. Lopez?” Karina pointed at Wynter. “She has no remorse!

She’s a lousy student, and she’s too arrogant to apologize for her mistakes!”

A loud thud sounded through the room as Victor slammed his palm against the table. His chest was

heaving as he snapped icily at Karina, “You should be the one apologizing!”

As he said this, he turned and pointed at the students who had gathered to watch. “That goes for all of

you too!”

Gone was Victor’s affable demeanor as he glowered at the crowd. “I set up this school to help you, not

to provide you a place for gossip! I don’t have to tell you more about Wynter’s accomplishments.

“Did none of you youngsters ever come across her livestreams? Go search up Empathy Clinic on your

social media and see for yourself!”

He looked grave as he added, “Let me make something clear. As long as I’m here, don’t any of you

dare to pick on Wynter. It is our honor that she decided to come to school here.”

Having heard this, the heads of departments and students immediately searched “Empathy Clinic” on

their social media. They were stunned when they watched a few of the recordings that came up with

the search.
