I Kissed My Professor And He Liked It

Chapter 240

Lila’s POV

The finality of his tone made me realize that there was no point in arguing with him any further. His point was made, and his decision was final. I stayed silent, feeling all sorts of defeated while Tiffany Prescott bowed her head to him and apologized for the hundredth time.

I felt small and I wanted to sink into the seat and disappear.

“With that being said, I’d like to be more involved in this school. I do own it after all, and I believe that’s only fair. Don’t you think, Miss Prescott?” Alpha Jonathan asked her, much to her surprise.

She nodded quickly.

“Of course, Alpha,” she said, trying hard not to look at me knowing how upset I was about this mural project.

“Great, I’m going to be building a house of my own here. That way I’ll have a place to live whenever I’m on campus,” he continued to say making my heart. weigh heavily in my chest. I didn’t like where this was going. “I was planning on doing some renovations around campus and I’m thinking about opening a coffee shop near the cafeteria. Just a small café that’ll be run by students.”

“That’s a wonderful idea, Alpha,” Headmaster Prescott agreed.

“Which is why I wanted my daughter here; Sarah, get in here,” he ordered without even looking at the doorway.

I heard Sarah’s slow and uncertain movements as she stood from her seat and made her way into the office. She didn’t bother looking at me, but she did glance up at her father with worry clear in her eyes.

“I’ve already discussed this previously with her,” Alpha Jonathan continued. “But now I’m formally putting Sarah in charge of this Café. Of course, I still own it. But it will be her responsibility.”

Headmaster Prescott looked at Sarah with a questioning look in her eyes.

“Is that something you want to do?” She asked Sarah.

Sarah looked at her like she wanted to protest; she opened her mouth, but one look at her father and she closed her mouth, giving a small nod.

“I’ve already connected with contractors, and they will be here first thing in the morning to take measurements,” Alpha Jonathan continued.

“That sounds wonderful, Alpha,” Headmaster Prescott said, giving a very obviously forced smile in return. She then looked at me, and her smile softened. “How about you get to class before you are late? I’m sorry I couldn’t be much help to you, Lila. But I’m sure you can understand why your request isn’t plausible.”

I nodded, though I didn’t like it. But I really just wanted to get out of there.

“Thank you for your time,” I managed to say as I stood to my feet.

“What request would that be?” Alpha Jonathan asked before I could walk away. “We have a new student, Kayla, who just transferred from Emmerson. Unfortunately, there aren’t any rooms available for her to live on campus, so she commutes from home,” Headmaster Prescott explained.

“A student is commuting?” Jonathan asked, raising his brows. “What do you mean there’s no room for her? We have plenty of students that don’t have roommates. My daughter included.”

“No one wants to room with her, Dad,” Sarah muttered, folding her arms across her chest. “She’s a fairy.”

“A fairy you say?” Alpha Jonathan asked, his eyes widening.

“This school has always welcomed all who would like to learn, including fairies. Though, she is the first fairy we’ve had at this school and the other students have concerns about rooming with her.”
