Chapter 1322 I Did Not Do Anything
âTake a closer look at it. You can make some suggestions if thereâs anything youâre dissatisfied with. They can then revise the plan.â
âAh, okay.â
Nicole snapped out of her thoughts and focused back on the floor plan.
Her phone rang suddenly three minutes later. She glanced at the screen, which showed that it was Sophia calling, so she immediately picked up.
The voice that came out, however, was Joyâs.
âMommy, what are you doing right now?â
âMommy is at work, Joy. Were you a good girl with Grandma? Did you make trouble?â
On the screen, Joy was silent for a while before looking at Davin and answering with, âMommy, I was a good girl and didnât make any trouble.â
The little girlâs voice was a little faint and unsure. Next, Davinâs voice rang out. âOh, you didnât make trouble, huh? You were a good girl, you say? You caused plenty of trouble already, you precocious kid.â
âWhatâs the matter? What did Joy do?â Nicole asked curiously.
âMommy, I didnât do anything!â Joy insisted.
âYour daughter is really something, Nicole. Mom took her and Zayden to a wedding in the morning, and you know what she did? She took our Zayden to compete on the stage and said that the one who won would be the boss.â Davin continued, âBut after that, she refused to fight and had Zayden do it. You know Zayden; thereâs no way he could win the fight. So Joy called up Luke for help. In the end, the three of them joined forces and beat up all the children attending the banquet, who then started crying. They made the wedding feel like a funeral with all the sobbing going on. Needless to say, the kidsâ parents were not happy either and tried to argue with Mom.
âYou know Mom. She didnât get angry with these brats, but instead, she stood by their side and said that it was normal for kids to fight. She also bragged that her granddaughter and grandsons won the fight. So understandably, the kidsâ parents were even more unhappy and had a dispute with Mom. As soon as these brats saw those people arguing with Mom, they promptly played pranks on those parents. You can imagine how the wedding turned out⦠The sound of kids crying alone was enough, and now there were additional noises from the adults. A nice wedding turned into such a mess. The hosts were furious and finally called me over, so I went there to pick Mom and those little devils up. Alas, these children are really out of control!â
Joy stared at Davin with a stubborn expression while he explained.
âWhatâs with that look? Was I wrong?â Davin asked when he noticed Joyâs stare.
Joy rolled her eyes and said, âWhat you said was wrong. They willingly agreed to participate in the fight and should have admitted their defeat after their loss, not started crying. They really are just a bunch of gutless crybabies.â
After seeing the proud expression on Joyâs round face, Davin said, âThey wouldnât have participated in the challenge if you didnât start it. To put it simply, you are the initiator, little troublemaker.â
Joy wasnât happy with Davinâs words, so she rolled her eyes again and began to argue with him.
âI started the challenge because I wanted to seek justice for Zayden. A kid bullied him before, but Zayden didnât dare to fight back. A man shouldnât take that lying down, so I started the challenge. I wanted Zayden to avenge himself.â
Davin was quite surprised to hear Joyâs reason. He then turned to Zayden and asked, âIs what she said true?â
Zayden just fidgeted with his fingers without saying anything.
âIs it true?â Davin repeated.
The boy looked at him before lowering his head.
âHey, why are you so timid? Why donât you fight back when others bully you? Youâre like a tennis ball, so easily smacked aroundâ¦â
Zayden looked at him again with an aggrieved expression on his small face. It wasnât like he didnât want to fight back, but his mother always told him not to fight and to be brave. She told him that people should use their brains to solve their problems and win, not their fists.
Davin became angrier when he saw his aggrieved and pitiful expression. âKid, Iâm telling you now, you better hit the people who hit you from now on. If they hit you once, you pay them back double. And if they hit you twice, then make them cry! Youâre not my son if you let people hurt you so casually in the future, you got me?â
