Chapter 706: Flirting with Girls
Alissa's got some serious experience under her belt, and she's a top-notch teacher. Plus, her daughter Laura is in her class. It just makes sense for me to look out for Alissa, both personally and professionally. The school really needs dedicated teachers like her to keep up appearances.
Meanwhile, Warren, the head of the English department, is getting up there in age and is about to retire soon. Even though Owen from the education bureau has been pushing for his nephew Quentin to take over as the head, Oliver isn't impressed with Quentin. The guy's a slacker, always flirting with the female teachers. If Quentin ends up leading the English department, it'll be a disaster for the school's reputation.
Owen has been pressuring Oliver to promote Quentin, but Oliver was only considering giving Quentin a deputy position in the department. However, things took a turn when Quentin was caught in the school's women's restroom, causing a big scandal. This gave Oliver the perfect excuse to shut Owen down and insist on having a capable teacher lead the English department.
The person Oliver really wants to support is Audrey. But Audrey lacks experience, and there's no guarantee she'll accept the role. After weighing his options, Oliver realizes that Alissa might be the most suitable candidate after all.
Oliver figures that if things don't work out, he can have Alissa temporarily replace Warren. Once Audrey gains more experience, she can take over as the department head. Audrey may be a bit naive now, but a little adversity will toughen her up. When the time comes, Oliver can swoop in and easily win Audrey over.
Suddenly, his phone rings. Oliver glances at the caller ID—it's his wife Daisy. With one hand still on his member, Oliver answers the call lazily, "Hey, what's up?"
"Are you coming home for lunch, honey?" Daisy asks.
"Oh, let me check. I have a lunch meeting, so you guys go ahead and eat," Oliver replies nonchalantly.
"Another meeting? You're busier than the director at the bureau. Laura aced her exam this time, and I was planning to celebrate with her at lunch. It's not right for a father to skip out. She's not just my child, you know. You can't just be an absentee dad," Daisy complains.
"Fine, I'll cancel the meeting and come home for lunch," Oliver concedes, feeling annoyed by Daisy's complaints but not showing it. He hangs up the phone, realizing his member has gone soft without him noticing. He sighs, lights a cigarette, and puffs away, feeling a mix of self-pity and amusement.
As the principal of the school, he finds it ironic that he's reduced to self-pleasure, despite having a wife as alluring as Daisy. Her once irresistible charm now holds no appeal for him. Perhaps this is the sad reality of a middle-aged couple—familiarity breeds contempt. Even the most beautiful woman can become mundane with constant proximity.
On the other hand, every interaction with Audrey ignites a strong desire in him. Oliver stands up, walks to the sofa, and crouches down, inhaling deeply where Audrey had sat earlier. The lingering scent of her body on the sofa excites him. He imagines undressing Audrey, revealing her voluptuous curves, and the thought arouses him once more.
"Audrey, you belong to me," Oliver whispers to himself. He sits back on the sofa, strokes himself, and indulges in a fantasy where he passionately makes love to Audrey.
"Ah, Principal, you're too big, I can't take it anymore," Audrey moans in his imagination, her body moving in rhythm with his.
Afterward, Oliver reflects on his waning stamina and recent encounters, realizing his age is catching up with him. Despite Vanessa's apparent satisfaction, he knows she's just acting. He doesn't want to pursue Audrey prematurely; he wants to impress her with his vigor, not as a premature ejaculator.
At noon, Kevin excitedly heads to Audrey's dorm, only to find Kimberly there studying. Kimberly blushes, remembering Kevin touching her breasts the day before, and asks about his exam.
"It went okay, Kimberly," Kevin replies, his gaze involuntarily drawn to her chest, recalling the sensation of touching her. He can't help but feel a bit flustered, wishing he could have more.
But wishes don't always come true. Even if they did, Kimberly probably wouldn't let Kevin touch her again.
Audrey enters the room, noticing Kevin's excitement. Blushing, she learns about Kevin's impressive results from Alissa—third in the class and ninth in the grade. This puts Audrey in a dilemma. She agrees to Kevin's request, feeling conflicted about getting closer to betraying her husband. But refusing Kevin doesn't sit right either.
"Kevin, I have something to attend to. Go home for now and come back tonight," Audrey decides to buy some time to think things over.
"Alright, sis. See you later, Kimberly," Kevin leaves the room, anticipating a passionate evening with Audrey.
Alone with Kimberly, Audrey senses her probing gaze. She quickly explains the situation with Kevin, trying to downplay any suspicions.
Kimberly nods in understanding, sharing a story about the challenges of teaching in today's world. Audrey reflects on the complexities of being a responsible teacher, knowing she must guide her students with care.
Kimberly compliments Audrey's rapport with Kevin, noting the importance of patience with students. Audrey appreciates the sentiment but feels uneasy about the implications. She decides to maintain her distance from Oliver to avoid further misunderstandings.
