The Billionaire's True Heiress: From Fake Jewel to Real Crown novel Chapter 222

“If you ask me, Claire actually went easy on him. If she wanted to make it serious, she could have just called the police,” Adolph said, his words sharp and unfiltered. “Let him cool off in a holding cell for a few days, go home in shame, and forget about winter camp. Maybe even make him apologize in public.”

Adolph’s comments left Sean red-faced and embarrassed. He’d only listened to Carr’s version and got upset about how his student was treated, but what if things didn’t happen the way Carr said they did?

Norris turned to Fletcher. “Let’s bring Claire and Carr here. They need to talk it out, face to face.”

“I’ll get Claire, you get Carr,” Norris said, already heading out the door. Fletcher quickly followed after him.

Watching the two teachers leave so quickly, Sean started to realize he might have jumped to conclusions. But Adolph wasn’t about to let him off easy. “Sean, you can’t just speak up without knowing the facts. If judges decided cases based on their feelings like you, just imagine how many innocent people would be in jail. It’s bad enough that you see people through your own bias, but you also assume everyone else does too…”

Sean had nothing left to say. Swallowing his pride, he mumbled an apology.

The other teachers stayed quiet. Even Sammie sat perfectly still, but the look in his eyes said he wasn’t impressed with Sean either.

Norris made his way to the girls’ dorm. When he arrived, the dorm supervisor’s eyes lit up. “Norris, what brings you here?” Ms. Opal might have been in her fifties, but she still liked seeing a good-looking young man around. The pay for her job wasn’t great, but the view sometimes made up for it.

“Opal, could you help me call Claire?” Norris asked.
