A Second Life, A New Power novel Chapter 204

At the principal's office, Jacob carefully reviewed the surveillance footage from inside and outside the classroom, confirming that Gerald and Joseph had placed trash on Demi's desk and chair.

"Pack up your things and leave. You're expelled!" Jacob said firmly.

Even if Charles, the heir of the Fuller family—one of the four major shareholders and the school's biggest investor—hadn't ordered it, Jacob still wouldn't tolerate such students in his school.

These kinds of students would only bring shame to the school. Plus, tthe board would hold him accountable if they found out!

"Wait, Mr. Stronghold, this is their first offense! They only acted out because Demi provoked them yesterday! After all, she was the one who shoved them into the trash can! Please, show them some mercy and give them another chance," Rebecca pleaded.

She had gone through so much trouble to get her nephew into the International Program, yet he was being kicked out—not just from the program but from Moran Academy.

"What do you mean, their first offense? They caused trouble yesterday and did it again today! Do you think the school rules are just for show?" Jacob frowned.

Rebecca wanted to argue, but Jacob stopped her.

"Were you three involved?" Jacob turned to Rowena, Seraphina, and Xendaya.

The three girls quickly shook their heads.

"I think they were the ones who instigated this!" Rebecca glared at the three girls.

"If you were involved, confess now. Don't make me call the police," Jacob warned.

"We weren't!" The three girls shook their heads in unison.

"Did they participate?" Jacob asked Joseph and Gerald.

The two hesitated before shaking their heads.

"Alright, you three, return to class. As for you two, call your parents, pack up your things, and leave," Jacob ordered.

Demi was extremely grateful and thanked them profusely.

After sitting in her new chair, she opened her textbooks on the clean desk. Beside her, Charles also pulled out a book to read.

Moments later, Rowena, Seraphina, and Xendaya returned to class. As soon as they entered, their eyes subconsciously drifted toward Demi.

Demi lifted her head and gave them an indifferent look.

The three girls quickly averted their gazes.

"I heard you shoved Joseph and Gerald into a trash can yesterday! How did you manage that? They're both guys!" Charles glanced at the three girls before turning to Demi.

Demi turned. "I learned martial arts."

She suddenly froze. She noticed the book in Charles' hands from the corner of her eye. It was "Brotherhood of the Iron Palm"!
