Chapter 145
Mr. Beardsley shivered all over.
He felt that he was really unlucky today. He wanted to take the opportunity to build a relationship with
Mr. Bowles, but now even Mrs. Bowles had to kneel on the ground and beg for Crystal’s forgiveness…
“Mr. Beardsley.” The principal said seriously, “You have been shielding Leland before, and today you
slandered Bernard. I don’t think your behavior is worthy of being a teacher. I will fire you.”
Mr. Beardsley panicked and said, “Principal… I know I’m wrong…”
If he was fired, it would be difficult for him to find a proper job in the future. After all, this matter would
definitely become a stain in his life. No parents were willing to accept a teacher who slandered students
to teach their children.
“You don’t have to say anything more.” The principal said, “I have made up my mind.” “…”
Crystal said, “Mr. Beardsley.”

heard Crystal say, “You’ve gone too far when you talked to Bernard earlier on. Please apologize to
him.”
For many children, the teacher was a very sacred existence. They respected the teacher more than
their parents. What Mr. Beardsley said before was undoubtedly a blow to the child.
Mr. Beardsley froze.
Asking him, a teacher, to apologize to a child….
“What’s wrong?” Harold narrowed his eyes slightly and said in a cold tone, “Don’t you understand
human language?”
Mr. Beardsley trembled. He was so frightened by Harold that he almost burst into tears. Trembling, he
said, “Bernard… I’m sorry. It was my fault. I shouldn’t have said that…”
Bernard blinked and said, “Mr. Beardsley, I hope you don’t say such things to children in the future.”
He lowered his head. “Because they will really be very sad.”
There was a moment of silence.
Mr. Beardsley said with difficulty, “… Okay.”
“Let’s go.” Harold grabbed Crystal’s slender wrist and said, “We wasted too much time.”
“Oh.” Crystal made a gesture of saying goodbye to the principal and said, “Thank you.”
The principal was speechless.
No, I should be the one thanking you. Thank you for your forgiveness. Otherwise, I wouldn’t know how
this matter would end.
As soon as Crystal and others left, the comments of the surrounding parents could not be suppressed.
Some were blaming Mrs. Bowles, some were blaming Mr. Beardsley, and some were curious about
Crystal’s identity. It was very lively.
Mrs. Bowles had never been treated like this before. The people who used to worship her had
sarcasm on their faces. They looked at her as if they were looking at a piece of trash.
She had lost her value. Wasn’t she just a pile of rubbish?

Mrs. Bowles squatted down and burst into tears.
Crystal wanted to sit at the back with Bernard. Harold looked at her coldly and said, “In the passenger
seat.”
Crystal said, “Bernard is still young. He’ll be scared if he sits alone.”
Harold glanced at Bernard and said, “He’s four years old, not four months old.”
Crystal said, “You’re already so old. Why do you still want me to sit with you?”
“…” Harold pulled Crystal over and pressed her against the car door. He looked down at her and
asked, “I’m already so old?”
“!” Crystal looked around. “What are you doing? There are so many people here.”
Harold didn’t care. “Tell me, how old am I?”
He was so close that Crystal could even clearly feel his warm breath, burning the skin on her neck.
“…I was just talking nonsense.” Crystal blushed and said sincerely, “You’re my husband. Of course, I’m
sitting with you.”
