"Are you Jack?" A man stepped forward, offering a business card. "I'm the principal of Hope Academy. Take this to your mother. If your family is truly in financial trouble and unable to pay for school, she can reach out to me—I'll make sure your tuition is covered." Jack narrowed his already tiny eyes, scrutinizing the man.

Don't tellyou're not pocketing a little extra on the side! Did you skim off the donations my family gave to Hope Academy?" The principal's face darkened with outrage at her accusation. Joyce smirked, tilting her chin up. “Listen closely. One day, Elite Lux will be Jack's. So don't even dream of taking advantage." Joyce stepped to the side, casting a glance at Jack, who was still kneeling on the ground. "Go ahead, keep crying!"
