Chapter 3

The day after the drama ended, I was teaching my students when the back door of the classroom suddenly erupted in commotion.

My hand writing on the blackboard paused. I nearly snapped the chalk.

This plot development was getting pretty melodramatic.

"Elara Voss! You shameless vixen, seducing my son-in-law, destroying my daughter's family—have you no conscience!"

Sera's mother, the current head of the Hale family,

the matriarch of an old-line werewolf family, stood at the classroom's back door and began her performance, completely disregarding her own dignity.

My teaching assistant rushed over:

"Professor Elara, Sera's mother says you seduced her daughter's husband Mr. Killian. Should we call campus security?"

I slowly put down the chalk. "Oh, let me go see."

As soon as I stepped outside the classroom, I saw a crowd surrounding Sera's mother as she wiped tears and denounced my evil deeds.

"Everyone judge for yourselves—Elara is jealous that my daughter married better than her, so she had to interfere and deliberately destroy my daughter's family."

I leaned against the window, smiling as I watched this good show.

Someone in the crowd spoke up. "Mrs. Hale, Professor Elara is here."

Sera's mother turned around. Seeing my relaxed demeanor made her even angrier. "Good, you still dare show your face!"

"Otherwise what?" I raised an eyebrow. "Should I hide like certain people who've done shameful things?"

Sera's mother's face flushed red with anger.

"Stop your nonsense. My daughter and son-in-law are fine. You're the one destroying their family."

I gave a contemptuous smile.

"Sera still loves lying to you? I thought she'd outgrown that childhood habit."

Sera's mother froze. "What are you talking about?"

"You don't know?

Your daughter Sera is Killian's wife,

but she wasn't faithful during marriage. She seduced Gideon, Killian's brother—also known as my husband."

The surrounding students all gasped.

Sera's mother's expression shifted. "You're talking nonsense!"

I pulled out my phone.

"Want to see the video? I recorded your daughter's spectacular performance with my husband."

Sera's mother panicked. "Don't you dare!"

I continued:

"If you really care about your daughter, go home and tell her to control herself.

The divorce papers have already been filed. What's the point of making a scene here now?"

Sera's mother became frantic. "My daughter can't get divorced!"

I laughed.

"What, can't bear to lose Killian's status? Or do you think Gideon the impotent one isn't good enough?

Don't worry, Sera's already cured Gideon's impotence."

"You!" Sera's mother pointed at my nose. "How can you be so vulgar!"

After saying this, she stamped her feet in anger, but knowing she couldn't gain anything here, she could only leave resentfully.

The students all looked at me with admiration.

My assistant came over. "Professor Elara, you were so cool!"

I smiled. "Cool? This is nothing."

Back in my office, I sent Killian a message:

Your Sera's mom just made a scene at my school.

Killian quickly replied: Need me to have someone handle it?

Me: No need, I already dealt with it.

Killian: Thanks for the trouble.

Looking at my phone screen, I just felt that life really was full of surprises.

Me: But I want Sera and Gideon, that pair of cheating scum, to pay the price.
