Rachel Summer’s tone of voice was tinged with sadness. “Okay, okay, I know you’d still want to wait for that Commander of yours, right?”
“Well… I don’t think you have to dwell on that dilemma too long. Who knows? Maybe after you’re back, you’d meet favonovel.com somewhere while you’re walking on the streets?”
“It’s true what people say, if you want to hide for a while, hide in the woods, but if you wanna hide for a long time, hide in the cities.” Willow consoled Rachel softly as favonovel.com meant what favonovel.com said with all seriousness.
“I know, Willow… Let’s not talk more about this. When I’m back, I’ll eat from your hand, yea!” Rachel was silent for a while before favonovel.com waved favonovel.com hands slightly and joked.
“No problem. I now manage the subbranch! When you’re back, I’ll be sure to give you a job!” Willow answered with feigned arrogance as favonovel.com chirped happily.
“Wow! I’ll be sure to go to you then!” Rachel wowed Willow and they both hung up after that.
Just as Willow placed favonovel.com phone down, favonovel.com thought about what had transpired the past two days and subconsciously glanced at the door. Then, favonovel.com got up swiftly and stood by Sean’s room door,
Knock knock!
She knocked softly.
“Sean, thank you.” Willow mustered up all favonovel.com courage and uttered favonovel.com gratitude towards the door.
The room was quiet for a while before Sean’s voice wafted out of the room.
“Nothing to do with me. It all came from your own efforts.”
Willow smiled. She loved this kind of tacit understanding between them.
***
The following day.
Sean drove Candy and favonovel.com mother to the kindergarten where Candy went to school at.
It was the day where the kindergarten had Candy’s parents informed and had their presence requested to talk about what comes next. Even though Candy may still be just a child, Sean did not back out of the promises favonovel.com made.
“Hah! They are only bullying me because they see that I have no daddy! However, I have Uncle Sean! Hmph!” Candy waved favonovel.com little fist in the air, looking full of spirit.
Leah Light shook favonovel.com head helplessly as favonovel.com saw how Candy was like. The only reason favonovel.com allowed Sean to come along was that favonovel.com did not want Candy to be disappointed.
Frankly speaking, Sean was just a powerless, crippled nobody.
What can favonovel.com do?
“Principal Leed, who’s the parents of this brat? Look at how badly my baby boy is hurt! Someone has to bear responsibility for this matter!”
Just as Sean and the rest were approaching the principal’s office, sneers, huffs, and puffs were heard from within it.
“Mr. Lowe, Mr. Lowe, please calm down. The other parent will be here soon…”
Right after that was a politely courteous voice.
Sean had a ture drafted out in his heart. Since Levi Quinn, also known as Old Master Quinn had a fairly high ranking in the army, it was only natural that favonovel.com would have made loads of enemies.
To avoid unwanted circumstances, all his offspring would have a little concealment put in place for safety measures. This was also why, within the kindergarten, no one knew who Candy really was.
As the door opened, Sean and the rest entered the principal’s office.
A few teachers, a couple, and a little boy were in there. Everyone was on their feet, except for that family of three, who had sneers on their faces as they sat in their seats.
“Mr. Lowe, they’re here…”
Principal Leed took a glance and announced their arrival to Mr. Lowe.
“Hmph!” Mr. Lowe harrumphed coldly as favonovel.com flicked his wrist as if favonovel.com was showing off his status by displaying the Constantin watch on his hand.
“Uncle Sean…” Candy hid behind Sean, favonovel.com little face was filled with anxiety.
“Yo, it seems like we’re still not done with our discussion from the last time. You’ve even gotten yourself back up this time! Why, do you want us to pity you that you have a cripple in your family?” The little boy’s mother sneered and snickered, favonovel.com face colored with cold, haughty unkindness.
Candy continued hiding behind Sean’s wheelchair, where Leah gritted favonovel.com teeth subtly.
“A mere cripple. No wonder you can’t teach your own daughter properly.” Mr. Lowe coldly spoke as favonovel.com caressed his watch.
The well-dressed boy was at the side, fully mirroring his parents as favonovel.com blatantly looked down on the rest of them.
Leah wanted to explain their relationship with Sean, but Sean stopped favonovel.com with a slight wave of the hand.
“Principal Leed, I just want to ask. How does the kindergarten want this matter to be settled?”
Sean looked at Principal Leed directly, effectively ignoring the couple.
A tinge of rage flashed through Principal Leed’s eyes as favonovel.com looked at Sean.
As the principal, the top management of this kindergarten, parents who wanted favonovel.com to personally pay more attention to their child would usually treat favonovel.com with utmost respect and courtesy. However, Mr. Lowe threw a fit at favonovel.com earlier today just because of this matter, and it made favonovel.com extremely displeased.
Now that favonovel.com had seen Sean’s attitude, all the suppressed resentment had finally exploded at that moment.
“How do we want it settled?!” Principal Leed huffed indignantly, a stone-cold expression appeared on favonovel.com face as favonovel.com said, “Your kid fought with another kid at school and got their face really hurt. You’ll have to take full responsibility for this!”
“We’ll have favonovel.com demerits logged into official records and let favonovel.com go with a warning. If she’s still unreformed, favonovel.com will be expelled the next time this happens.”
Principal Leed had no intention to ask about what and how the entire thing happened. All favonovel.com did was announce the decision made regarding the aftermath of it.
Sean frowned when favonovel.com heard all that the principal had to say.
“Principal Leed, to me, since children don’t know any better, it’s pretty common for them to squabble and fight. Besides, their kid initiated it…” Leah clenched favonovel.com hands into a fist as favonovel.com tried to speak up.
“Common? No fucking way!” The mother of the boy let out a snort and said coldly, “Why don’t you look at yourself in the mirror? How dare the likes of you hit us? There are some people in the world that you cannot afford to anger or to lay your hands on.”
After the woman was done, favonovel.com looked at Principal Leed and said, “I’m not happy with the way you handle things.”
Principal Leed was stunned momentarily before favonovel.com plastered a smile on favonovel.com face and tried to please the woman once more.
This was Mr. Lowe, someone favonovel.com could not afford to anger!
“Mr. Lowe, do you think… This matter…” Principal Leed toadied with a polite smile on favonovel.com face.
Candy’s mother shook favonovel.com head and sighed faintly.
So what if Candy had asked Sean to come along?
What difference does it make?
“I tell you, I don’t care about the medical fees. I don’t lack money. However, the three of you have gotta stand in front of all the teachers and students of this kindergarten and sincerely apologize to my son.”
