Chapter 1683 No One Can Get Away
Using their power to arbitrarily assign jobs-this behavior had become ingrained within the educational institutions. Carlos' attitude exposed all the underlying issues in an instant.
Wynter's voice was slow but filled with a chilling tone. "From the cafeteria to the scholarship committee incident, you've never once reflected on your actions.
"You claim that students who went abroad didn't want to come back and that you have no authority to intervene. But let's focus on what you can control-personnel arrangements and the level of supervision.
"An uneducated wife can become a professor. A morally questionable student who thinks she's above everyone else can become a teacher. Isn't that what Mr. Bach was implying, Mr. Hollis?"
At that moment, everyone in the room had only one reaction. They were trembling as they wiped the sweat off their faces.
None of them dared to provoke Wynter. Her authority as 001 had gone beyond their ability to make excuses.
"I know that these accusations may seem like nothing to you. You've never once considered that a single decision made on a whim could destroy someone else's life.
"How many good teachers, who deserved to be in their positions, were pushed aside? How many young people with dreams want to study abroad?
"Some of them left, hoping to reshape their lives and one day take care of their parents. Others dreamed of returning home after their education, to repay their school and serve their country.NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.
"They may have been chosen because of other factors, but all of you know for a fact they had good grades."
Wynter looked down at the Soul Commanding Badge hidden at her waist. "These people who worked hard and deserved the opportunities you stole from them... Since they were nothing to you, I will make all of you feel something."
Wynter was indeed different than usual, the tip of her eyes turning red due to the Soul Commanding Badge.
"Mr. Hollis, if you can't explain how that painting came into your possession, then I will treat you as Cascadia's enemy and deal with you accordingly," Wynter said coldly.
Whether it was Dominic or Carlos, both of them didn't dare utter more nonsense.
"Mr. Hollis, can't you just explain already? How did the painting come into your hands?" one of them asked urgently. Everyone was anxiously waiting for his explanation.
Olivian gritted his teeth. "I got it from a friend in Colifernia, who asked me to sign some
documents regarding school qualifications. I truly didn't know that the painting had previously appeared in Foplya. If I had known, I would never have accepted it!"
"So, the qualifications for those schools were given with your endorsement." Wynter quickly got straight to the point. "Write down those schools' names. As for the teachers at Mindcrest High School, the problems may not only lie with those you arranged."
Olivian was skilled at blurring the lines and leaving things unsaid.
"Besides the ones you arranged, which other schools have had teachers suddenly resigning without explanation?
"Get the school to release the information. If they refuse, I'm sure you know how to handle it better than I do. After all, you people are the experts in managing schools, aren't you?" Wynter said sarcastically.
Carlos and Dominic suddenly became tense. "We'll call them immediately!"
This direct approach was the most efficient way to get answers. If they waited for the resignation process to be completed, the people responsible would already be long gone by the time they acted.
Lucas watched Wynter's actions, and memories from their time in Riverburg came rushing back. It was just as Jackson had said-some of her talents were even beyond his own.
But Wynter didn't seem to be focused on that. She walked over to Olivian, her voice steady and sharp. "Tell me more about your friend from Colifernia."
Colifernia...
A sudden, terrible premonition struck Wynter. The team she had sent to investigate the plague had gone to Halsbury and Colifernia.
