"Do you want me to help you get sick leave tomorrow?"
"Sick leave?" She raised her arm. "Because of this?"
"Otherwise, if you work like this, what if you get infected?"
She replied, "It's not like I'm going to do hard labor. My job is not to touch water. Besides, there's a friendly basketball match between departments these past few days. As a coach, how can I be absent?"
William Walton still wanted to say something, but he immediately said in a Laura tone: "Benjamin is also participating in basketball games, if I feel uncomfortable, I will tell him. Benjamin is your spy that was planted by my side, you shouldn't trust your own little brother, right?"
Spy... William Walton smirked: "You can go to school, I'll take care of you during the day, and I'll take care of you at night."
As he spoke, he headed for the door. "I'm going to take a bath. I'll be with you in a bit."
"I'm going to sleep soon. Don't come over later."
She was getting more and more anxious. Who would sleep with an unfamiliar man everyday? It was clear that this wasn't the right thing to do.
"You think your objection is valid?"
"It works," she nodded. "You're not an unreasonable person."
William Walton returned to his side. "Then tell me about the reason why you don't want me to come in and sleep."
She said, "Firstly, I am an unmarried young lady. Is it appropriate for me to sleep with a man everyday?"
"I'm your man."
"That's not appropriate either. We're not married."
William Walton raised his eyebrows, "So, when do you plan to marry me?"
"It's hard to say."
"And the second?"
"Secondly, I'm used to sleeping by myself. You always sleep by my side. I feel uncomfortable and can't rest well at night."
William Walton's face was already somewhat dark. "There's still a third?"
"Third ..."
He interrupted her, sounding annoyed. "Really?"
"Sigh, then these two."
William Walton bit his lips: "Give me a good night kiss, I'll grant your wish."
No one could be so shameless.
Seeing that she did not move, William Walton said: "Then I will have to go to bed and lie down."
She stood on tiptoe and kissed him lightly on the lips.
In any case, kissing once was a kiss, kissing ten times was also a kiss.
Just as she was about to leave, William Walton grabbed her waist, pressed on her head, and kissed her deeply.
She tightly shut her eyes, feeling nervous. His kissing skill had actually managed to hook her into a trap.
William Walton released her, smiled, and rubbed her head, then turned and walked to the door: "Good night."
She took a deep breath and said with a slightly trembling voice, "Good night."
William Walton went out and closed the door casually.
When she came to school the next day, other than the Sabrina and the Mia, there were also two female teachers in the office next door.
The moment she entered, the Sabrina waved her over, then said with a face full of gossip: "Miss Green, have you heard, our principal has been hospitalized."
"Is that so?" she asked, pretending not to know. "Is she sick?"
"I don't know the specifics, but it must be very serious because the principal issued a statement overnight saying that she is not in good health and can no longer serve as the principal of Philadelphia University. She is now taking the initiative to resign her position and waiting for the newly appointed principal to finish transferring her. She will leave her job as soon as possible and focus on recuperating."
She was shocked. The principal actually wanted to resign?
William Walton pursed his lips. He knew this little girl was testing him: "You actually believe things like rumors? Since your principal has said that she wants to recuperate, it must be due to some serious illness. For matters like these, one must still believe the person involved. "
She heaved a sigh of relief.
William Walton asked again: "She's about to resign, what do you think? How are you feeling?"
"If I say I'm happy, would you laugh at my schadenfreude?"
"With her strong character, if she resigns, there will probably be many people secretly laughing behind her back. You can't be considered to be taking pleasure in her misfortune. For God's sake, let's go out for dinner tonight and celebrate."
"Is there anyone who would celebrate such a thing?"
"Anything can become a reason to celebrate. It depends on the mood."
She smiled, "Alright then. Let's go celebrate."
"You treat."
"I choose that location."
"OK."
After hanging up, she returned to her office in a good mood.
In the afternoon, the competition on the sports field was in full swing.
Because Benjamin Walton had played ball with students of the same faculty a few times, he understood each other's strengths and weaknesses. He very well led the freshmen in the department through this trial.
Her instructors told her that Benjamin Walton was a very capable student.
She felt a sense of pride in her heart. How could a son of the Walton family not have some skills?
But wait, why should she be proud?
Benjamin called her Laura, but she really thought of herself as his Laura?
Really ... She was speechless.
