My Stand-In Groom Is A Secret Tycoon (Audrey) novel Chapter 377

As soon as Leo said he would handle the matter seriously, Lucas and Maxwell's mothers panicked.

At first, they had been acting tough and intimidating, assuming their sons hadn't done anything wrong. But now that the surveillance footage had been pulled up, it was clear their sons had indeed been involved in the fight.

They wondered, 'How can we defend our sons?'

Lucas's mother quickly shifted her focus and said eagerly to Leo, "Mr. Harrington, it's really not Lucas's fault. He's just a loyal friend who got misled by his so-called good buddy. Please be lenient this time and give him another chance."

Maxwell's mother wasn't willing to back down either. She quickly chimed in, "That's right, Mr. Harrington. Please give the kids another chance. Maxwell has always been the best-behaved.

"In his three years at school, he's never caused any major trouble. This was just an exception. If you could go easy on him, I promise I'll make sure he learns from this."

The two women had completely lost their previous arrogance. They both knew Leo's temperament well and understood that he was famous for being strict and impartial.

Moreover, Leo had a powerful mentor backing him, someone with an extraordinary position in the education field. No one would dare question his decisions.

If Lucas and Maxwell were really expelled by Leo, it was likely that no other reputable high school in Riverdale would accept them.

Thinking of this, Lucas's mother broke into a cold sweat and continued pleading, "Mr. Harrington, please be lenient."

Leo snorted coldly. "If I hadn't come today, Miles would have been expelled because of the pressure you placed on Jasper.

"Since you know that making a big fuss would ruin the students' futures, why did you just now pressure Miles so aggressively?"

The more Leo spoke, the angrier he became. Disappointment filled his voice as he asked, "Do you think only your children's futures matter? Is the future of other kids just a joke to you?"

His words left the two mothers speechless. They couldn't argue with Leo, so they could only turn their anger toward their own children.

For a moment, the office was filled with Lucas and Maxwell's pleas for mercy. The two were beaten and had nowhere to turn, so they could only ask Nathan for help.

"Nathan, please help us!" one of the boys pleaded.

"Nathan, you have to plead for us!" the other boy said.
