He Looked ferocious, as though he was about to rip Betty to shreds at any given moment.
I stepped in front of Betty to protect her.
âWhy are you scolding a Little girl who was brave enough to tell the truth? You can ask the other kids for confirmation!â I sneered, glaring at James coldly.
âArenât honest children supposed to be rewarded? Why are you doing the opposite, even going so far as to threaten her? You donât deserve to be an educator at all!â
Stunned, James was rendered speechless.
I ignored the stupid look on his face and ushered Betty to her parents.
Bettyâs parents looked both grateful and guilty.
They sincerely apologized to me, saying, âMiss Clarkson, weâre really sorry.
Betty played a role in hurting your child.
We came to apologize on her behalf.
â
I shook my head and smiled at them kindly.
âNo need.
In fact, I should be thanking you for making your daughter come here to tell the truth
Otherwise, I donât know what I wouldâve done if we had to release
Jayla.

To my surprise, Bettyâs mother said, âYouâve misunderstood.
Betty was the one who wanted to come forward.

âWhat?â I looked at her in confusion.
Bettyâs mother explained, âLast night, Betty cried all night in her room.
Finally, she decided to come clean.
Sheâs allowed to make mistakes, but she also has to face the consequences of her actions.
As her parents, all we could do is support her.
â
Bettyâs father added, âWeâve made a decision.
Even if the headmaster expels Betty from the kindergarten because of this matter, weâre okay with it.

Tears welled up in my eyes.
No wonder Betty was so kind and righteous; it was because she was raised by such reasonable people.
They might not have had a Lot of money, but they were definitely richer than most people in terms of values.
Caleb turned to face James and demanded, âWe have more than enough evidence.
What else do you want to say?â
âTrâ¦â

With Bettyâs testimony, James faltered and lost his previous arrogance.
He knew that he couldnât protect Jayla any longer.
With an angry expression, he turned his head away and said reluctantly, âIn that case, then itâs indeed Jaylaâs fault.
You should deal with it however you see fit.
â
Then he stood up to leave.
âWait!â With raised eyebrows, Caleb stopped him.
âDidnât you say that you wanted to justice from my father? Rest assured, justice will be served.
â
A few seconds Later, Jamesâ eyes widened, trembling, and he suddenly fell to his knees in front of Caleb.
âPlease forgive me!â He begged Caleb for mercy.
âI swear I wonât do something like this again! Please donât punish me!â
âNo,â Caleb replied indifferently.
