Hearts on Hire (Completed)

Wrath of Love

Next day, Mew was a little apprehensive to go to college but he trusted Gulf to handle it so he walked to his first lecture avoiding eye contact with Lewis and his gang. As the lunch time neared, Lewis along with his friends and Mew were called in principal's office. When they reached the office, Gulf was already seating there looking every bit in control while the principal and teachers looked worried.

"What is this man doing here?" Lewis asked.

"Lewis I think you should apologize to Mew." Principal said.

"Me apologize to this fag? Never."

Mew could feel Gulf tense up at the insult.

"Lewis don't use such language." The teacher reprimanded.

"My father will hear about this." (Gave me totally Draco Malfoy vibes.🤭🤭)

"Lewis-"

Gulf cut him off in middle, "I don't have time to waste, Mr. Parkinson. My time is money I'm sure you're aware of that. I want these boys expelled."

"What? But Mr. Kanawut their future-"

"Future? What sort of future do criminals have?"

"I think it's a stretch calling them criminals. They were just playing around. You know how kids are at this age."

"Are you for real? Did you see those bruises Mew had? Yet you've audacity to say it was just a joke. Physically and mentally assaulting someone isn't playing around. It's a criminal offense and they aren't kids anymore. They are adults so they should face the consequences of their actions."

"Sir, boys are like that at this age-"

"I was that age too. But I didn't go around beating people, degrading and abusing them."

Lewis shouted, "Who the hell do you think you are? This fag deserved it. We just showed him his place."

Gulf stood up immediately and strode towards Lewis. Lewis took a step back in fear because when Gulf is angry, he looks dangerous.

"Listen to me carefully, you say another word about Mew and I'll see to it personally that getting expelled is least of your worries."

"You can't do a-anything."

"Oh, is that a challenge? I love challenges. It'll be such a shame if your father was investigated by the audit team? Let's see if he can get out of that."

"What are you talking about?"

"Call him and ask."

Before Lewis could, his father called him. He quickly picked the call, "Dad wh-"

"What the hell did you do Lewis? Why the hell is Gulf Kanawut angry with you?"

"Dad-"

"That man is a ruthless business tycoon. You better apologize right now. On your knees if you have to. Deal with it immediately."

"But wh-"

"I don't want to hear your nonsense. You don't mess with him. He can have us on streets if he wants."

Lewis was shocked at this turn of events. He couldn't believe Gulf was more powerful than his father. He decided apologizing would be smart choice right now.

"I'm sorry Mew."

Gulf commanded, "On your knees."

"What?"

"Are you deaf? All of you on your knees."

So all the bullies kneeled down and apologized to Mew.

Principal said, "I think that's more than enough, right? They apologized."

"So? An insincere apology means nothing. They aren't feeling any guilt or remorse."

"Then why did you ask them to apologize?"

"Because I could."

"Sir-"

"You expel them or I'll have you investigated. You know my friend Porche works as prosecutor and you had some run in with him already. It wouldn't be difficult getting you behind bars since you have notorious habit of being involved in illegal schemes. I did my research on you."

"I'll expel them. All of you leave the office right now."

"I want the teacher gone too."

"But that's too much."

"Too much? What sort of teacher just watches his student getting bullied? How could he not do anything to stop them? How dare he threaten the victim?"

Teacher moved forward and apologized, "I'm sorry, Sir. I didn't know the matter was serious. I thought it was just fight among kids."

"Serious? When does it get serious for you? When someone dies? That's the problem with people, they don't care until someone's dead. What are you teaching your students? You're teaching them it's okay to hurt others as long as you've money and power. You are creating monsters."

"Sir, I didn't know it was this serious."

"You should have known. You're a freaking teacher and those students depend on you and they watch you and learn. The culprit is learning that it's okay to trample on weak and the victim is learning that no one is ever gonna help them and it's their fault."

"It won't happen again."

"What about the damage that's already done? Abuse leaves such deep scars of soul that even after 10 years, 20 years, 30 years it's still there. They don't grow from that, they remain that abused child for so long, only changing physically."

"I'm sorry."

"Who going to take responsibility for this? How are you going to compensate Mew?"

"Is it about money-"

"Money? You think money can make it all right? You know what's going to make it okay? Justice but then again there's no such thing like justice in today's society. But you know what? I'm Gulf Kanawut and for my boy I'll create justice if I have to."

Gulf fished out his phone and opened gallery and passed the phone to the principal. The man paled immediately as soon as he saw the pictures of him and a woman in compromising positions.

He stuttered, "How d-did you-"

"I'm sure you don't want your wife getting hold of them. She's heiress of Oberoi Groups and this college is working on their funding. Would be such a shame if these photos became public."

"I'll do as you say."

"Good. I'll take my leave now."

Soon enough the teacher and bullies were kicked out of the college and so was the principal. Gulf had forwarded those pics to his wife as soon as he had expelled the students. He needed to pay for his part too.
