As a teacher, being impartial and resolving conflicts were necessary.
But perhaps it was because Lilly was too obedient, or maybe it was because the old lady’s words were too infuriating.
Flora removed the bunny hair clip and said, “Ray pulled her hair very hard.”
The hair clip was tangled in a small strand of hair, indicating how forcefully it was pulled off.
Blake’s expression turned cold.
Bettany, Hugh, and Anthony also shivered from the cold atmosphere.
The principal was at a loss and reminded, “Ms. Flora…”
Flora took back the hair clip without expression and continued, “During breakfast, Lilly ate a little more than usual. But Ray teased her, calling her ‘Big Belly’ who eats everything and leaves nothing behind.”
Flora went on, “Lilly is a transfer student who just arrived today. During her self-introduction, Ray called her ‘Chubby Sweet Potato’.”
The old lady was left speechless. What’s wrong with calling someone ‘Big Belly’ or ‘Chubby Sweet Potato’? It is normal for children to say whatever they think. They are innocent and cute.
It was Lilly’s first day here, and she didn’t know anyone. No one liked her.
Why did Ray have to single her out instead of others? Why did he choose to argue with her instead of others?
That’s definitely because she also has some issues!
Upon hearing Flora’s words, Bettany was enraged. What made it even more infuriating was that Ray’s grandmother had a nonchalant expression and seemed indifferent.
Blake handed Lilly to Bettany and said coldly, “Tell me, how do you propose we resolve this?”
Ray’s grandmother was scared, her face stiffening, but she insisted, “What do you mean by ‘resolve it’? Haven’t you heard what the teacher said? Your child hit my grandson first! It’s absurd. Is there any justification for hitting someone?”
Ray’s grandmother snorted in anger and saw nothing wrong with her grandson’s actions.
Blake sneered, “Your grandson pulled my daughter’s hair first, and my daughter simply fought back.”
The old lady was impatient, “I’ve already said that pulling someone’s hair is not a big deal. Which boy doesn’t pull girls’ hair?”
“He doesn’t pull anyone else’s hair, only your child’s. You should reflect on yourselves for allowing your child to wear such a flashy hair clip. I even mentioned that it distracted my grandson in class!”
After speaking, she snorted and asked Ray if he was injured or in pain.
She even shouted that she wanted to go to the hospital for a check-up and demanded compensation for all medical expenses.
Bettany was trembling with anger. What kind of people are they?
Anthony was also furious. If an adult hit someone, he could call the police and teach them a lesson.
But now it was a child, and he couldn’t call the police. Even if he did, it would be pointless.
At most, the boy would be scolded and they would have to pay some money.
But did the Crawford family lack money?
No!
Anthony took out his phone with a cold expression.
Suddenly, there was the sound of a slap!
Blake had an emotionless look as he slapped the old lady with a loud smack.
This sudden slap stunned everyone, and even Flora was dumbfounded as she watched Blake.
Blake showed no emotion. He didn’t care what others thought about him hitting women, children, or older people.
He only cared about what he believed was right.
He wouldn’t hesitate to fight back if someone provoked him, even if it meant risking his life.
The old lady trembled with anger as she covered her face and said, “How dare you hit me!”
Blake looked numb and indifferent, “Why? Why did I hit you instead of someone else? Don’t you think you should reflect on yourself?”
He withdrew his hand and twisted his wrist, “I have to say, your face is too thick. It hurt my hand.”
Bettany, Hugh, and Anthony were all astonished. Anthony stopped just as he was about to make a phone call.
Blake had to be the one to do it.
This slap may not have been very moral, but it felt so satisfying.
Blake was cold as he said, “You need to go to the hospital for a check-up and compensate for the medical expenses, right?”
“Come on, Lilly. I’ll give you one million, and you can beat him up twice.”
Lilly was surprised. What are they talking about?
The old lady stuttered, “You… you…”
Blake stared at her with a sinister smile and said, “Otherwise, I’m afraid you won’t find anything wrong when you go to the hospital. It won’t be convenient for you to extort money from me.”
Anthony couldn’t help but laugh.
He never played by the rules!
The old lady was so angry that she almost spat out three pounds of blood.
“Just you wait, all of you just wait…” She was fuming. She had never been bullied like this before.
She claimed that the other child was hitting people over trivial matters. It turned out they had learned it from their parents!
To be taught like this, their child would be ruined sooner or later!
The old lady was furious, glaring at the principal and the teacher, “You’re not going to do anything about this, right? Fine, wait! I’m going to expose you. I’m going to post it online!”
The principal also wanted to take action. But did we even have a chance? Didn’t you keep blabbering and thoroughly annoy them?
Seeing the old lady almost losing her temper, Bettany felt relieved.
Anthony also put away his phone and said to Charlie, “Go and find out which family this is.”
The principal smiled and said, “Mr. Crawford, please have a seat. Let’s all calm down.”
Flora panicked and said, “Yes, it’s just a minor issue. Let’s talk it out.”
She regretted being too impulsive earlier.
She always felt that Ray’s grandmother had gone too far, and she was worried that Lilly’s parents wouldn’t be able to argue with them.
But now, Lilly’s father had proven to be ruthless.
Now she was worried about the old lady.
This incident wouldn’t benefit Ray’s family.
Flora didn’t want the children’s quarrels to escalate into adult grudges and end up harming the children again.
Unexpectedly, the old lady didn’t appreciate it and stared, saying, “What’s the matter? Are you threatening me?”
She often read celebrity magazines but had never seen Anthony and Blake in them!
What’s the big deal about being rich? Who doesn’t have money?
