Maybe she really shouldn’t have let Emily come here.

Emily absorbed the principal’s anger in silence, her voice steady as she finally spoke. “So, what do you all think should happen here?”

The principal raised a hand and gestured at the dean. “You handle this. Just seeing her makes my blood boil.”

“Emily, you know this whole situation started because of you. We called you here to resolve it. Do you have any objection to that?”

Emily replied calmly, “I’ll do my best to cooperate with what you need.”
