“Do you think a simple apology is going to put an end to this matter?”

Kasie rolled her eyes as she murmured to herself, but she made her voice loud enough to be heard by everyone.

The astonished gasps of the other students echoed loudly.

“The punishment should fit the crime. Judging by what he has done, an oral apology seems too forgiving.”

“Yes, if it had been another student in his place, he would have gotten expelled from school.”

“Tut-tut, he has a powerful background. How can we compare with him?”

Brandon’s face became pale as death when he heard what the other students were saying. In an effort to stem the tide of the crowd’s anger, he gritted his teeth and said, “Of course, a simple apology is not enough. Terence Perez will be expelled from school and Gail Murphy will be given a warning!”

Gail collapsed to the ground, dumbfounded.

A warning?

This punishment would go on her academic record, permanently staining her future!

When Terence heard that he was going to be expelled from school, he shook his head in disbelief and yelled, “Dad! Why? I wasn’t serious about anything I said to Debbie. Those were just words of anger. You can’t expel me from school for something so negligible.”

Brandon’s fists were shaking in anger as he looked at his son and said,

“Unfortunately, actions have consequences and you need to pay for what you have done. The rule applies to everyone in this school!”

Then, he motioned Paul to take them away.

Terence didn’t dare to make a scene in front of Carlos, but before he left, he glared at Debbie with his eyes full of malice and resentment.

Gail followed him, gritting her teeth before she threw an angry glance back at Debbie.

As Terence and Gail were being taken away, Brandon ordered the security guards to evacuate the crowd.

Debbie and Kasie were about to Leave when a tall man suddenly blocked their way.

Debbie raised her head and saw that it was Carlos.

His cold gaze seemed to see right through her.

When their eyes met, the atmosphere grew a Little awkward.

Noticing the tension between the two, Kasie, Brandon, and the others around didn’t dare to make a sound.

Debbie Looked up at him unhappily. Carlos had just helped her. What did he want from her now?

“Er… What’s up?” Debbie asked seemingly casually.

“Are you pretending you don’t remember me?” Carlos looked her up and down and frowned.
