Chapter 582
In the office, through the clamor, Dean Larson finally understood the situation and gave Sarah a meaningful look.
Sarah understood, stepping out briefly with her phone.
No matter what Henry's parents said, Amy remained silent, smiling at the dean while occasionally shooting
venomous glances at Henry.
"Professor Letito, is what Ms. Gabble said true?" Dean Larson frowned.
Henry didn't try to hide anything, nodding. "It's all my fault. Amy bears no responsibility."
"This appears to be a criminal matter. If Ms. Gabble agrees, we should involve the police. And of course, the
school cannot keep a professor like this - Professor Letito will be dismissed," Dean Larson said calmly.
Henry's parents froze, not expecting such serious consequences.
"No! This is all a misunderstanding. My son didn't break any laws. They were legally married - he's not some
criminal!" Henry's mother pleaded.

happened before they were married, didn't it?"
The woman turned on Sarah, pointing at her. "I know you! You're the one this witch tried to frame. After what she
did to you, you're defending her? Stop talking nonsense - my son is not a criminal!"
Amy seemed surprised that Sarah was speaking up for her. Her lips moved several times as if to speak, but she
remained silent.
Henry reflected for a moment, as if exhaling a long-held breath. "Call the police. It will finally let us both move
on."
For three years, every the opened his eyes and saw Amy, he saw those hateful eyes staring back.
Even knowing Amy wouldn't kill him, he still lived in fear of that sword hanging over his head.
More than that, his conscience tormented him. The guilt was almost unbearable.
Over these three years, he'd often lingered outside the police station, wanting to confess, but never found the
courage to walk in.
He couldn't let go. He'd finally married the woman he loved, and couldn't bear to let that happiness slip through
his fingers.
Sarah suddenly turned to Amy. "Do you want to press charges?"
Amy stared hard at Henry. Though
hatred still lingered in her eyes, she
seemed to deflate, {ett go. Ckhotw
