Chapter 6 Apologize to Ms. Ellis on Your Knees!
The students turned everything upside down.
The vice principal let out a sigh of relief and angrily exclaimed, “Hedy, you hit and insulted your classmate and a trustee, and now you want to lie to us? As the vice principal, I’m expelling you. Any problem with that?”
“No problem at all!” Jack was the first to chime in.
Lisa’s face twisted with a sinister expression as she stared at Hedy. “If you don’t apologize to me and my son, don’t you even think about leaving Lowell High School on your feet!”
The vicious tone sent shivers down the spines of many in the square.
It was hard for them to describe their current mood.
They knew that Lisa and Jack were lying, they knew that the students from Class 12-2 were lying, and they knew that the vice principal was favoring Trustee Jones.
But there was nothing they could do.
They felt a surge of anger within them.
They were angry that someone who was a victim was labeled as the perpetrator.
They were angry that a student who was in the right was expelled by the vice principal.
They were angry that a girl who had done nothing wrong was being Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

forced to apologize.
They felt as if a dark cloud loomed over their heads, enveloping the school in its seamless grasp.
The morals from the textbooks were eroded, and the principles on the blackboard were erased, leaving only the crimson laughter of Lisa and Jack, along with the flattering smile on the vice principal’s face.
Was this… reality?
In the somber atmosphere, Hedy let out a cold laugh, like the first ray of golden light that pierced through the boundless darkness of the early morning.
She said, “Lisa, I admire your confidence, but you’d better go discuss with your husband how to respond to the investigation into your family’s products being reported for cutting corners.”
The viciousness on Lisa’s face faded away as she heard it, replaced by guilt and shock.
How did Hedy know about this?
But even if she knew, what could she do?
Lisa maintained her tough demeanor and retorted, “What does that have to do with you? That’s none of your business. We can handle it!”
“It indeed has nothing to do with me. I just happened to have my phone in my pocket, and I recorded everything that has happened to me since I entered Lowell High School until now. And by the way, I’ve uploaded it to the backend of the largest video platform in this country, and I’m ready to release it.”
Hedy took out her phone and played the recorded video.

The video had low resolution because Hedy was using a knockoff phone, but it captured the entire process.
Through the small and square screen, one could see Jack insulting Hedy, Hedy retaliating with a brutal beating, and then calling for his mother to intervene, only to get beaten up as well.
All the lies were exposed.
Jack and Lisa felt embarrassed.
The vice principal’s lips trembled.
The students from Class 12-2 wished they could disappear underground!
Who would have thought that Hedy, this supposedly foolish underachiever, had been recording the whole time?
“What kind of reaction do you think my video will receive if I release it?”
Hedy walked past the vice principal and Lisa one by one, exuding a chilling and formidable aura, as if she were scolding a misbehaving child:
“At Lowell High School, the best elite private school in San Francisco, an entire class of students collectively lied and bullied a girl from the countryside, while the vice principal sided with the wrongdoers and turned a blind eye.”
“Will this absurd incident immediately make the headlines?”
“People will know that Smith Group cuts corners in their products and that its boss’s wife has teamed up with her son for campus bullying.”
“Will Smith Family’s competitors make a big fuss out of this?”

“No!” Lisa couldn’t contain her anxiety.
Her face turned pale, devoid of the previous arrogance and ruthlessness.
Smith Family’s recent trouble was caused by their competitors, and their stocks had taken a considerable hit.
In the past couple of years, campus bullying had become a hot topic. If this video fell into the hands of their rivals, it would spell disaster for Smith Family.
Under the pressure of public opinion from multiple fronts, Smith Family would suffer severe damage, if not a complete downfall.
“Fine,” Hedy said casually as if it were no big deal. “Get down on your knees and beg me.”
“What?” Lisa stood frozen in place, thinking she must have misheard.
“On your knees! Beg me!” Hedy raised her voice, elongating the last syllable, and a sinister aura began to emanate from her eyes.
“I….. I’m a trustee, a San Francisco socialite, and my husband is the president of the Smith Group. How could I possibly kneel before you? How could I…” Lisa shook her head repeatedly, showing strong resistance.
“Then prepare to end up in the streets,” Hedy dismissed Lisa, turning away sharply.
Before Hedy could take another step, Lisa dropped to her knees with a thud, pleading desperately.
“Hedy, please forgive us. It was our fault. We shouldn’t have messed with you. Please forgive us!”

Compared to their future prosperity and wealth, what did a little dignity matter? Lisa didn’t want to become a beggar burdened with debts on the streets.
“Mom, what are you doing? Get up quickly. Don’t be fooled by Hedy!”
Jack was completely bewildered. He just wanted to pull his mother up and avoid further embarrassment.
He had no idea what was happening at home, nor did he understand the severity of the consequences that would follow once the video was released.
“You disrespectful brat! So, it was you who insulted Ms. Ellis, huh? Get down on your knees and apologize to Ms. Ellis!” Lisa grabbed her son and delivered a slap to his face, something she had never been willing to do no matter the circumstances.
With a fake smile on her face, Lisa knelt and kowtowed, pressing her son’s head down as she forced him to apologize to Hedy.
The stark contrast between her lowly posture and her previous arrogance left everyone stunned and unable to digest the scene.
Hedy didn’t rely on the Johnson Family. With her strength alone, she managed to deal with Lisa and Jack.
Was this still the foolish and timid country bumpkin they knew?
They looked at Hedy, expecting to see a satisfied or happy expression on her face.
But what did they see?
Hedy’s face showed no emotion.
She gazed calmly, indifferently ahead, paying no attention to Lisa and

her son kneeling behind her feet.
Just like an emperor facing an ant, she wouldn’t care about what the ant had done or said!
In fact, for the Queen of the Assassin world, Lisa’s existence was indeed no different from that of an ant.
Hedy had killed nobles of higher status and had encountered underground organizations with greater power.
The knowledge of Smith Group’s subpar products was also a result of her previous identity:
There was a website for assassins to receive and assign tasks
It brought assassins from all over the world. From assassinating a country’s president to stealing highly confidential formulas from corporations, all kinds of missions could be found there.
Coincidentally, some time ago, she happened to come across a task that involved finding evidence of the Smith Group’s shoddy practices in San Francisco.
Recording the video in advance was a plan she had made while on the bus.
The original host had suffered from bullying at school, and she needed an opportunity to show the others a lesson.
Lisa and Jack brought it upon themselves.
Now that Lisa and Jack had been dealt with, it was time to deal with Lowell High School.
Hedy approached the middle–aged vice principal with graying temples.

She didn’t necessarily have to stay at Lowell High School, but this trial mission required her to secure first place in the upcoming monthly
exams.
She couldn’t afford to be expelled.
Before she could speak, a round of applause echoed from outside the
square.
Everyone turned to look and saw a young boy with a baby face, appearing to be around ten years old. He was dressed in a black suit, adorable, cute, cool, and a bit arrogant. One couldn’t help but want to embrace him and show affection.
“The… the principal!” the students exclaimed.
He was Kelly Thomas, the principal of Lowell High School
He was a legend with a cute baby face and dwarfism, a man of action
“Isn’t that Childe King behind the principal? Why is he here too?” the students were shocked.
Preston King.
The only grandson of the founding father, the heir of the millennia–old King Family.
Nine years ago, the King Family faced a catastrophic disaster, and their family business was on the verge of destruction. When everyone was helpless, the eighteen–year–old Preston stepped forward.
The details of how he turned things around remained unknown to the outside world. All they knew was that after Preston took control, the King Family not only reversed their fortunes but also became the number one family in the USA, with their industries spread across the globe!
Even the president of the USA treated Childe King with respect and dared not neglect him.
What was even more astonishing was his appearance!
