The Wife You Buried Is Back from Hell novel Chapter 43

Danielle almost laughed.

Of course she knew exactly what was going on.

But did that mean she was supposed to tiptoe around Millie and her son at every turn?

"Your mess has nothing to do with me."

She took Niki's hand and turned to leave without another word.

A moment earlier, Gian had texted to say there was an emergency meeting at the university—he couldn't make it, so he'd asked if a junior colleague could come in his place. Not wanting to trouble anyone, she simply declined.

She'd originally invited Gian to join in the parent-student activities, but with him out, the rest of the day's events would probably fall apart anyway.

No point wasting any more time getting tangled up with these people.

She'd barely taken a few steps when a group appeared at the door.

Danielle narrowed her eyes at the man leading them.

The school board had arrived.

The teachers, startled, rushed to greet them. "Principal—"

His sudden appearance made their hearts skip a beat.

With a stony face, the principal cut right to the chase. "Do school rules mean nothing just because someone has a powerful family?"

"The superintendent has already called me about this."

One teacher's back went cold. "We… we didn't approve everything Bianca wanted."

"You did the right thing."

The principal's gaze landed on Bianca. "This isn't a school that bows to influence. Rafferty slandered Monica in front of everyone, accusing her of cheating. He'll receive a formal warning."

"One more incident of bullying like this, and he's expelled."

Bianca's face darkened. "What are you suggesting? My grandson hasn't done anything of the sort. Siblings bicker—it's not the school's business!"

"Will you only admit you're wrong after the school's name gets dragged through the mud online?" the principal said, his tone sharp. "Power doesn't make you right."

Bianca hesitated.

She didn't think this was a big deal—just some online gossip. Even if it did make the rounds, she could always call in a few favors and have it drowned out by celebrity news.

"This is a family matter. My grandson should've been first, not my granddaughter. And since she pushed him, I want her to apologize. That's between us."
