Chapter 108: Spend Money to Avoid Disaster
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
In the past, Mei Mu used to do her own thing while enjoying the attention of her classmates, showcasing her charm.
But now, she didn’t need to turn around to know that the looks from those around her were probably filled with disgust and disdain.
In the end, Mei Mu was taken away by the grade director and the police.
An hour later, Mei Yun received a call from the school. As soon as he heard that Mei Mu was suspected of stealing money, he was so angry that he almost smashed the phone. After suppressing his emotions for a while, he finally managed to stabilize himself and immediately called Wang Yue.
He needed to sign an important document of the company at the moment, and he didn’t have time to deal with this extremely embarrassing matter, so he asked Wang Yue to handle it at the school and said that he would settle the score with Mei Mu when they returned home!
When Wang Yue hurriedly arrived at the school, Mei Mu was already crying miserably.
The police had intended to take Mei Mu away immediately, but considering that the college entrance examination was approaching, the grade director thought there might still be room for negotiation. He asked the police to wait for a while and tried to delay the time until Mei Mu’s parents arrived.
“My dear daughter, who framed you? Tell Mom quickly, and Mom will definitely help you!”
As soon as Wang Yue entered the office, she rushed to hug Mei Mu, crying even more miserably than Mei Mu.
The grade director felt a headache coming on and walked over helplessly, “Ms. Wang, please calm down first. The police have already investigated this matter thoroughly, and there is no question of someone framing her.”
“It’s impossible!” Wang Yue glared at him in anger, “Do you know how much pocket money my daughter gets in a month? Does she need to steal money from the school? Someone must be deliberately framing my Mumu!”
“Ms. Wang,” the police, seeing her attitude, had no patience to continue delaying, “as Mei Mu’s guardian, please come with her to the police station!”
“No! My daughter absolutely cannot go to such a place!” Wang Yue retreated in panic and blocked the door, refusing to let anyone take her daughter away.
After all, Mei Mu was going to inherit the Mei family’s company!
How could she let such a big stain stay on her?
The grade director regretted it immediately when he saw her hysterical appearance.
If he had known that Mei Mu’s mother was such a difficult person, he would have let the police take Mei Mu away directly, so as to avoid the bickering here.
But since it had come to this, the grade director couldn’t just let the police take Mei Mu away.
He coughed awkwardly and once again engaged with the police, saying, “Mei Mu’s mother must have been under great stress and might not be able to accept the situation for now. Please allow me to talk to her alone. I promise it won’t take up too much of your time.”
The police exchanged glances, sensing that there was something fishy going on. They furrowed their brows and nodded, saying, “Alright, but don’t take too long. We still have other cases to handle at the station.”
“Understood, understood!” The grade director got their approval and immediately put on a smile. He offered the police officers hot tea, then took hold of Wang Yue’s arm and led her to the corridor.
“Wang Madam, there’s something 1 need to remind you.” As soon as they left the office, the grade director’s expression turned serious.
Wang Yue was taken aback and instinctively asked, “W-What is it?”
The grade director fixed his gaze on her, his eyes filled with seriousness. “The amount Mei Mu stole is significant and constitutes a crime. According to the law, she should be taken to the police station and would definitely have a criminal record.”
Wang Yue hurriedly grasped the grade director’s hand and pleaded, “Please, spare my daughter. She must be innocent.”
The grade director impatiently shook off her hand. “The evidence is solid. No one would frame Mei Mu. If you continue to obstruct, even I won’t be able to help you.”
Upon hearing this, Wang Yue quickly composed herself and nervously asked, “Then how should we handle this matter?”
Seeing her cooperation, the grade director’s expression softened slightly. “I understand you parents, fearing that a minor mistake could affect your child’s future, especially since Mei Mu is about to take the college entrance examination. Her academic performance has always been excellent, and the school cherishes her greatly.”
The grade director’s words struck a chord with Wang Yue.
She nodded repeatedly in agreement.
The grade director continued, “But you also know that this incident has caused quite a big commotion. Even if the school wants to let it go, the police may not agree. It’s not easy to use the connections to resolve this matter. However, fundamentally, whether the school helps or not, it won’t have much impact on our school.”
“I understand!” Wang Yue understood the grade director’s meaning, her lips tightly bitten in anxiety. “Two hundred thousand, 1 can offer this money to compensate for the school’s loss. I just don’t know if it’s enough?”
The grade director sighed, “Our school has never done illegal deeds. Back then, Mr. Mei Zong donated a building to get Mei Shu into our school. But when it comes to Mei Mu’s future, why are you suddenly hesitant to take appropriate actions?”
Donate a building?
Where did she get so much money?
Two hundred thousand was already all the cash she could use!
