Chapter 900

“Yes, boss. So did Principal Dunbar .”
As it turned out, Wynter had been on the phone all along.
On the other end of the call was the principal of Lavend International School, Sally Dunbar, whom Wynter had long since had her people escort into the police car.
Earlier, Sally had been abruptly summoned for questioning , but there was no interrogation like before. Instead, they simply put a phone in front of her, on speaker.
At first, Sally didn’t understand what they were up to. She didn’t say a word. She had her own techniques for dealing with this sort of thing–she’d just walt for her lawyer.
Nevertheless, when she heard Wynter mention her daughter’s name, she couldn’t sit still anymore. She struggled to leave, but the car doors were locked.
“Principal Dunbar, our Special Operations Team operates independently. Your connections mean nothing to us. If you interfere and harm yourself, we won’t take responsibility.”
At this moment, Sally truly regretted her decision. She should have gotten out of the car earlier instead of sitting there idly!
“You’re coercing a confession!” Sally yelled madly. “Hailey, don’t listen to her! Hailey!”
She screamed until her face turned red, but what good would it do? They couldn’t hear her on the other end.
Wynter wanted to let these lowlives taste their own medicine and to see their own daughter being threatened and feel powerless.
Sometimes the most satisfying way to punish the bad guys was to let them linger in fear and uncertainty.
As expected, Sally let out a shriek. Her usually elegant demeanor as a principal disappeared as she clung to the front seat. “Who’s talking to my daughter on the phone? Who is it?
“Why are you picking on her and not me? Don’t involve my daughter!”
Expressionlessly, Wynter listened to the commotion coming from the phone and uttered, “Sorry, Halley is just too adorable. I want to chat with her a bit more.”
“Who are you talking to?” Hailey sensed something amiss. “I warn you, you better not be illegally recording. It won’t work for my family.”
Surprisingly, Wynter agreed with her. “Indeed, your grandfather is quite powerful. Not only did he arrange for his son to enter the Department of Education, but he also made his daughter–in–law a school principal.
“Of course, his granddaughter is the most impressive of all. Ordering teachers around and bullying students is normal for you, isn’t it?” Wynter strode closer to Hailey. “After all, you have your family covering for you, right?”

Hailey wasn’t stupid. She immediately denied Wynter’s claims, saying, “Don’t slander me! Do you have any evidence for saying all this?”
“Not a moment ago. But now…” Wynter glanced at the phone on the desk in front of her.
Catching this, Hailey suddenly turned pale. She hadn’t had time to delete the chat logs from earlier! The next second, she picked up her phone and swiftly deleted all the messages.
“Phew, that should do it,” she thought. Now, they wouldn’t have any hard evidence.
Wynter quietly watched her actions before saying, “Well done. Your reaction confirms my thoughts, and I
found the evidence I needed.”
“Say what you like.” Hailey shrugged as she was convinced she was in the clear.
Wynter continued leisurely, “The police found your mother earlier and asked some questions, including some about your lost phone and a replacement SIM card.
“She was smart to know to dispose of your old phone, especially since it had a lot of evidence on it. Do you know why your mother threw away your phone?”
Wynter drawled, “Because we can recover deleted chat records.”
