Imposter Proprietor!

Azrael left the bathroom shortly after taking his bath and got dressed up after the usual towel cleaning and body creaming.

He got his bag and rushed out to the table to eat. It was a delicious meal of Yam and scrambled eggs. The aroma hit his nostrils as he dashed into the dining area, and his stomach grumbled in delight.

At this exact time, Alex Bayly got up and took her plate to the sink, indicating that she had finished her meal.

Azrael rushed and took his seat and started gulping down the enticing meal.

Alex came out and exit the house for the car. This placed more pressure on Azrael who kept rushing his meal.

"Azrael..., take it easy, don't choke on your breakfast.. she will wait for you..." Bianca Zul who couldn't stand him continually rushing his meals had to speak up from the side.

he managed to finish his meal and rushed to drink water, then he dashed out of the house to find Alex standing by the car, waiting for him.

Alex walked past him and locked the front door of the house, then she went back to the car. Azrael had already settled himself in the front passenger's seat and they both drove to school.

At exactly 8:55 am, the red Honda sped into the school premises to find everyone on the assembly ground, including the student, teachers, the Principal, and even the Proprietor.

Every eye was tailored on the red Honda of Alex Bayly and they kept staring at Alex Bayly and Azrael Herrington.

"Who is that?" The Proprietor asked the Principal.

"It's one of our teachers and a student. She usually comes early, I don't know why she is coming by this time...." Principal Rumbotum tried to defend her.

"Fire her immediately and suspend the student..." The Proprietor said dismissively...

"But sir... She..." Principal Rumbotum didn't know what to say to defend her.

The Proprietor ignored the Principal and walked to the front of the assembly of students, just shortly after, both Alex Bayly and Azrael Herrington dashed closer to the assembly line to join them.

However before they got any closer, the proprietor shouted at Alex Bayly while stretching his hands toward her. "Hey, you...Stop there..."

Alex Bayly was startled as she suddenly stopped in her tracks.

"You are a teacher of this institution, just look at the time you're coming and the example you are leaving for the student beside you." The Proprietor who goes by the name Chief Urgo Dean turned towards the other students and staff.

"This should be a lesson to all of you. If any of you is found coming late, you would be fired or expelled immediately without even severance pay. This is not a charity organization, this is a real business."

"This teacher and student would serve as scapegoats to bear witness of things to come, henceforth, her services here would be terminated and she would not be accepted as a part of this institution."

"The student would also be suspended until further notice. It seems the teachers and students seem to slack off in my absence, things are about to take a different turn..." The Principal barked.

The teachers gasped in shock. Alex Bayly is the most dedicated teacher they've ever had. She even utilizes her weekends sometimes to study and contribute to some functions of the school.

She has the best record when it comes to the outstanding results of students and she even set the pace and standard for other teachers to follow, but on a day like this when she made the first mistake ever, she was sent packing without even so much as a severance pay.

Some teachers mocked her silently and snickered. It was like all her records has been destroyed by this singular mistake.

The Proprietor had an unusual smile underneath the facade of solemnity. He appeared to be scowling but he was smiling inside.

The Proprietor that was present on that assembly ground wasn't the real proprietor. His face has been changed by witchcraft to resemble that of the original principal, while the original Principal has been in bondage for quite a while.

The real Chief Urgo Dean is in the custody of Zuck Danesworth's werewolf pack. This other proprietor was planted as an impostor to do the bidding of the alpha to force Alex Bayly into a situation where she would return for help.

The first step was to cut off her means of livelihood. Principal Jerry Rumbotum was unable to defend her. He felt helpless as he looked sadly in her direction.

Azrael saw Alex as she stood looking helplessly. He could very well blame himself for putting her in this predicament.

He came boldly towards the assembly ground and faced the 'imposter' Proprietor- "You might be the owner of this school, but under the human and legal working rights, you have no justification whatsoever to give your worker an outright termination without considering the terms of agreement and laws governing them."

"If you go ahead with this unreasonableness, I will sue you from here to your next 10 generations, and in case you're wondering what identity I might have to make such bold claims, let me give you a hint, My last name is Herrington..." Azrael said boldly as he challenged the proprietor without flinching.

Every student had their jaws dropping.

"This guy has some balls..."

"He is challenging the proprietor..."

"It's a good thing I came to school today, how could I miss such a good drama, they don't give you this quality in the movies..."

"Damn, he just served the Proprietor a hot plate of face slap..."

"Knight to D4, Proprietor, your turn..."

The students snickered at the proprietor as they enjoyed the showdown before them.

The teachers were stunned. They all were aware of the name Herrington, there is an entire state named after his father, and there is even an international school built in the Herrington Estate.

Herrington is one of the biggest names around and maybe the richest man in the entire country of Melbourne.

His words were final and packed with power, so what would it mean if the son of such a powerful man should sue you, isn't that like an entire State suing you?

The Proprietor realized this and discovered he had picked the wrong enemy. He also couldn't exonerate the student without exonerating the teacher.

"Shit..." He cursed inwardly.

Every eye was tailored on the proprietor waiting for his response. It was like a game of chess, and an unlikely chess piece (Azrael) has emerged unexpectedly and now the challenger (the Proprietor) seemed to be in a precarious situation.

"I didn't know there was such a brilliant student who knew the laws, I am impressed, because of your knowledgeable insight, I will grant both of you pardon this time, but next time if you come late you will be fired and expelled respectively." The Proprietor barked and walked away from the assembly without looking back.

"Such a p*ssy, he even backed away..."

"Too chicken to face the Herrington name.... eheheheh"

"Even the Proprietor knows that there are skies beyond the sky, and heavens beyond the heavens..."

The students mocked the Proprietor in whisper as they watched him walk away.

Alex Bayly tried to remain composed and she went to stand with the teachers as she tried to not cry, Azrael looked at her pitifully before walking to the assembly line of his classmates.
