Jimmy listened to Ashton's deep, profound words and was absolutely in awe.
Ashton really had that touch of a guiding light after years of teaching experience.
s
Every word he spoke seemed so loaded with philosophy, striking with a wisdom far beyond what ordinary people could understand.
It was genius-truly genius.
His words had a certain animalistic edge to them, carrying an undeniable persuasive power.
Jimmy thought to himself that he'd need to work even harder to someday reach Ashton's level-to really step into that realm beyond mere humanity. Ashton could feel the look of admiration Jimmy was giving him.
He pulled out his chest, looking down from his lofty position at Robin, Jonah, and the others.
A smirk crossed his face, with an air of smug generosity.
"Lilly's mother said it's no big deal if your kid's dead. She's willing to offer some cash.
"If you need it now, I can call her right this moment and have her transfer 20,000 to you.
"My point is, let's just settle this with some money.
"Why make a big scene and leave everyone unhappy?
"Take the cash. Let her throw you a bit of business later, What's there to lose?"
Robin pulled out a wet wipe and cleaned his hands, a hint of a mocking smile on his face. "Is that what you really think?"
Ashton thought Robin was about to accept his advice, so he nodded with a grin. "That's right, young man. Now you're thinking sensibly-
"Smack!" A loud slap echoed as Robin's hand connected with Ashton's pudgy face.
Ashton flew backward like a pig thrown into the air.
Gasps rang out around the campus.
No one had expected Robin to actually make a move after hearing Ashton's words.
They watched as Robin walked toward Ashton, step by step, speaking in a low voice. "Is he out of his mind?" someone whispered.
"Mr. Green already told him the other side's got serious connections, but he still won't back down?"
"When someone's pushed too far, they'll do anything, another murmured.

"But this probably won't end well for him, another said.
"Getting hot-headed now means paying a big price later."
s
"Yeah, and those bullies he's up against are all rich kids with connections, someone else muttered.
"And Mr. Green even said they have official backing too!"
"Oh my...
let's just see what that young guy does next.
Robin crouched down in front of Ashton, his voice cold. "You're the principal of this school, a role model for students, yet you're spouting words that are worse than what any animal would say. Don't you feel ashamed?" Ashton wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and spat out angrily, "Who the hell do you are? You actually dared to hit me?
you think
"I was... Lwas even thinking about negotiating with the Sloans to get you a little more compensation. But now... now you won't get a single cent!"
"Oh, is that what you think?" Robin chuckled, his teeth flashing white.
In an instant, the smile vanished from his face. He grabbed Ashton's thinning hair and slammed his head down onto the concrete.
"Ah!" Ashton screamed and passed out.
"It's not time for you to die yet. Hang in there a little longer, Robin muttered, tapping Ashton's back twice
Ashton came to, groggy but conscious.
Robin stood up and pointed at Jimmy. "Pick up this scumbag!"
Jimmy didn't dare disobey; he hurried to lift Ashton back up.
Ashton wiped the blood from his eye and sneered, "Fine, fine, you've got guts!
"I'm a civilized man, a teacher-I won't stoop to the level of an uneducated brute like you!
"But I'll say this: you idiots think you can take on the Sloans? That's just suicide!"
Then, trying to sound more reasonable, he asked, "What exactly do you people want?"
Robin raised an eyebrow, his tone icy. "Debts must be paid. Blood for blood."
Ashton shuddered, his whole body tensing up. He took a deep breath and said, "Lilly's father is a wealthy man from Brighton with official connections. Her mother is from one of the most powerful families in Brighton. And you you're nothing. "A bunch of reckless fools! I'm telling you, the Sloans are way out of your league!
Im a civilized man, so I'll let it go that you laid hands on me. But if you know what's good for you, you'll leave now and take that corpse to be cremated!"

Just then a gasp came from one of the parents watching nearby. "Wait. isn't that young woman standing next to him Ms. Wright from the Wright family?"noveldrama
The sudden exclamation made Ashton flinch.
Henry's daughter... Martin's granddaughter... Freya, the Colonel in the military?
Ashton stared, suddenly realizing his mistake. How could he have missed it?
"You... You... you're Old Mr. Wright's granddaughter
Freya gave a cold snort. "And what if I am?"
"Ms. Wright, are... are you associated with this young man?"
Freya pointed at Robin "He's a friend of my friend. Is that enough for you? He's a Major General from Zone Three of the Special Operations Military Region Think he can go head-to-head with the Sloans you keep talking about? "And if that's not enough, count the Wrights in too. Is that enough?
"And then there's her! Freya pointed at Talia. The daughter of Mr. Cross, the Lieutenant General and Director of Brighton's Investigation Division 7. Think adding her to the mix is enough to put the Sloans in their place?
"If you want to throw your weight around, you're looking at the wrong people!" Freya's voice was sharp with anger, her eyes blazing.
Ashton looked at the three of them, his face pale with terror as he took a few shaky steps back. Who the hell had he gotten himself involved with?
Any one of these people could crush him-and the Slons-without breaking a sweat!
The crowd of parents and reporters watching were equally stunned, all eyes on Robin and his companions
This was one hell of a power lineup!
Some people started recognizing Robin.
"Isn't that young man the owner of Villa One at Dawnspire Heights-the one who was all over the internet a while back?"
"I was there, right outside the villa, and I saw him in his military uniform. He looked so heroic!
"That day, he was surrounded by two lieutenant generals, four senior colonels, and five colonels. It was like a constellation of stars!"
"Oh my god, the school really picked the wrong person to mess with this time!"
"Let's see what that arrogant principal has to say now
"And the mighty Sloans-what are they gonna dol "They're finished, I bet!"

"If it were an ordinary family, they'd have no choice but to swallow this down. Their kid would just be dead, and that'd be it."
"It's time for someone with real power to put these heartless bastards in their place!"
They looked up at Robin, standing tall and imposing. hoping that in this bullying case, the troublemakers -starting with Lilly-would finally face justice.
Ashton, still shaking, stammered, 'General Ramsey, I... I'm sorry, I didn't recognize who I was dealing with
"I'll call the Sloans and the other kids' parents right now and have them come to the school to discuss this..."
Too late, Robin said coldly. "There's no discussion to be had."
"What do you mean, General Ramsey?" Ashton asked, confused.
"Debts must be paid. Blood for blood, Robin responded with a voice as cold as ice.
