Chapter 738: Dirt
The classmates explained earnestly, speaking in support of Summer Monroe.
Mio Osborne couldn’t maintain his composure and directly asked the police, "Officers, do you really have to arrest them?"
The policeman nodded and said, "These two students in your class made a false report and are also suspected of severe defamation. We have sufficient evidence to arrest them. It has nothing to do with that female student; in fact, she’s the victim."
Another policeman patted Mio Osborne on the shoulder and said, "As a teacher, it’s right to protect your students. But you also need to distinguish between public and private matters, don’t just favor one side."
These earnest words from the policeman left Mio Osborne utterly embarrassed.
Disregarding Mio Osborne’s expression, the policeman became stern and said, "We’ll take them away according to the law. If you obstruct us again, we’ll have to treat it as hindering public duty and arrest you too."
Mio Osborne’s face turned from blue to white, and he had to step back, watching helplessly as the police took away two promising students from his class.
Following Mio Osborne, Willow Grant saw his expression and feared he would turn around and scold her.
However, Mio Osborne didn’t even look at her; he just stared intently at Summer Monroe, full of displeasure.
Willow Grant secretly breathed a sigh of relief, thankful that Mio Osborne never liked Summer Monroe; otherwise, after losing face like this, he would surely blame her for not explaining clearly.
However, although Mio Osborne didn’t blame her, Willow Grant clearly felt the sarcastic glances from her classmates directed at her.
Her face turned dark, and she returned to her seat somewhat embarrassed.
Holly Holloway glanced at Willow Grant, leaned close to Summer Monroe, and whispered, "Professor Osborne’s stare just now was terrifying. It must be Willow Grant adding fuel to the fire behind his back for him to look at you that way. Do you want to explain to Professor Osborne?"
Summer Monroe shook her head, "No need, it’s a waste of effort."
It’s best to ignore someone like Mio Osborne. If she really got provoked, she wouldn’t hesitate to release the dirt she had on him.
That dirt, once exposed, would lead to a punishment far heavier than those two girls faced.
On the podium.
Mio Osborne, slightly irritated, opened his teaching materials and prepared to start the class.
The past weekend was the most tormenting two days he had ever spent at home.
Ever since Claire Woodward moved in, there had been constant conflicts and disputes at home, leaving him sleepless for two days.
This was no marriage; it was a living hell!
Thankfully, the school had dormitories. As soon as Monday arrived, he immediately moved all his belongings to the classroom dormitory, deciding not to return home until he divorced Claire Woodward.
Mio Osborne pinched the bridge of his nose and wearily began, "Turn to page 121 in your textbooks..."
Meanwhile, at Stanton Manor.
After the incident with Mio Osborne, Henry Stanton hardly slept at night, fearing Summer Monroe would speak ill of him to Damian Knight.
But after waiting anxiously for two days with nothing happening, his hanging heart finally settled.
"Leah Lowell!" Henry Stanton, while having breakfast, instructed Leah Lowell, "Don’t forget to prepare the fetus-preserving medicine for Madam."
"Yes," Leah Lowell bowed and returned to the kitchen.
Henry Stanton had recently dismissed many servants, leaving only one chef at home. After preparing breakfast for Henry Stanton, the chef went to rest.
Leah Lowell glanced around, ensuring no one would enter the kitchen, and then placed a piece of black medicine from her pocket into the simmering fetus-preserving medicine.
This was the second day she secretly added the medicine Summer Monroe gave her, all quietly without anyone knowing.
Once the time was right, Leah Lowell poured the "fetus-preserving medicine" and delivered it to Stella Monroe’s room.
