Nicole and June heard that sentence as they stood outside the office and looked at each other.
At this moment, Mr. Kennedy no longer had the usual gleeful smile on his face as he looked at Mr. Louis,
his tone sounding rather helpless. “I’m made up my mind. Please sign it off, Mr. Louis.”
He had a pained look on his face, but he also knew that he had humiliated himself so much that he could
no longer stay in this school.
Yet Mr. Louis could not help but curl his lips. “Mr. Kennedy, you’re resigning right after your leave. Why?
What if you regret it later?
Mr. Kennedy had a relative on the school board of directors, and Mr. Louis could be said to be trying to
save his face.
Yet, Mr. Kennedy said sullenly, “Don’t you worry, I will not regret it.”
With him humiliating himself like that, no relative would even talk to him any longer, no matter how close
they previously were. He knew very well that he could still do decently being a teacher in the Royal
Creek Institute with his ability, but he had just humiliated himself beyond redemption. Moreover, Mr. Louis
and Ms. Emerson, who he had deliberately bullied all this while, were now flourishing. Since he thought
his days there would be insufferable, he could only leave.
Seeing that he had made up his mind, Mr. Louis got up and smiled. “Then I’ll approve it.”
As he said that, he stamped the document without giving Mr. Kennedy any time to react. Mr. Kennedy
was taken aback. He did not know that Mr. Louis would stamp the document so quickly. He actually
regretted it a little in his heart, but it was too late now.
Mr. Kennedy sighed as he took the approved resignation letter and left.
However, the moment he turned around, he saw Nicole and June by the door.
Upon seeing Nicole, Mr. Kennedy’s pupils contracted as if he was afraid to see her. Nicole glanced at
him and smiled. “Mr. Kennedy, leaving again after you’ve just come back?” Mr. Kennedy looked
awkwardly at Nicole. “I’m here to resign. Why? Do you have an opinion about that?”
Nicole looked at him with an icy gaze. “I have no opinions, but it seems like you’ve not yet settled the bet
we made.”
Speaking of the bet, Mr. Kennedy’s expression changed.
Inside the office, the other teachers looked at one another.
Ms. Emerson looked a little unsettled as she sat on her seat. In fact, she had forgotten about the bet
after she got the excellent teacher award and did not expect Nicole to still remember it.
Sensing the depressing atmosphere, Ms. Emerson got up and came to Nicole’s side. “Nicole, let’s forget
about it…”
Nicole, however, shook her head. “The bet back then was brought up by him, and I did not force him to
make that bet. Mr. Kennedy, I’m sure you don’t want to be known as a person who isn’t a man of his
words, right?” “You!” Mr. Kennedy did not expect Nicole to corner him even at this stage! “L… I’m not a
teacher at this school already. You have no right to demand that I apologize publicly!”
“Is that so?” Nicole’s eyes turned icy. “Since you’re no longer a teacher of this school, then I’ve no need
to hold back against you any longer.” As she said that, Nicole’s hand stretched out and grabbed Mr.
Kennedy by the collar! Mr. Kennedy sweated profusely. As he struggled, he asked, “You! What are you
trying to do?!”
