The Ex-Wife's Burning Elegance novel Chapter 367

Stella knew Marvin would never start a fight for no reason.

Her gaze shifted to Sheldon, who stood quietly in the corner.

“Sheldon,” she said gently, “tell everyone what made you two argue.”

Sheldon opened his mouth as if to speak, but when his eyes met Marvin’s, he lowered his head and fell silent, unable to say a word.

Mrs. Ayers immediately stepped protectively in front of her son.

“Don’t you dare try to intimidate my boy!”

Haynes, having picked up on the tension in the room, spoke in a deep, steady voice.

“Maybe we should rewind the security footage a little further.”

Stella glanced at the preschool teachers. “That’s all the footage we have.”

The teachers’ faces paled.

They had witnessed how everything had unfolded, but they didn’t dare show the full video. That’s why only part of it was handed over.

If Haynes were to discover that his son had been deliberately targeted at preschool—

There would be serious consequences for them all.

Neville read the fear on the teachers’ faces and immediately understood.

His lips curled into a cold, mocking smile.

“You’re afraid of upsetting Haynes, but you have no problem throwing my son under the bus? As educators, as the principal and teachers of this school, is this really the lesson you want to teach—rewarding the powerful, sacrificing the innocent?”

He paused, his tone icy.

“Looks like this preschool is due for a complete overhaul.”

Neville pulled out his phone and dialed a number.

“I need a copy of a security video—from my son’s preschool. Full recording, no edits.”

He added, almost as an afterthought, “And while you’re at it, make sure the entire staff, including the principal, is replaced. They’re all hopelessly biased.”

The principal and teachers, hearing these words, all looked stricken.

But as soon as they glanced at Haynes standing nearby, their panic faded and they straightened up, as if emboldened by his presence.

Neville’s eyes narrowed. His smile was razor-thin.
