Chapter 75 The One Behind the Scenes When Emily heard this, she sighed. She opened her mouth and asked, âPrincipal, can you really guarantee that my children will not encounter any campus violence when they are at school? They have already had a shadow in their hearts and are afraid that they will encounter that kind of thing again.â On the other side, the principalâs tone was serious, and he promised her, âNo, absolutely not! We have already expelled the students who caused trouble. I have held a meeting for all the teachers about it.
You and your children can rest assured!â He spoke with conviction. Seeing that his attitude was good, Emily was also embarrassed to blame him again. âAlright, but my children felt hurt. They might need a few days before going to school.â The principal was very tolerant. He smiled and said gently. âItâs fine. They can come whenever they want.â Emily smiled politely and said, âOkay, thank you.â Hanging up the phone, she did not expect that this principal was so reasonable.
It was really out of her expectations. She thought for a moment and walked back into Ethan and Sofiaâs room. Ethan sat on the bed with a depressed look on his face. Sofia lay down and covered her head with a quilt. Only her eyes were exposed, and her big eyes were filled with worry. Emily pursed her lips and said to them, âEthan, Sofia, the principal just called me.â Ethan did not say a word. Sofia pursed her lips and asked her, âMommy, did the principal ask us to go to school?â She answered honestly, âHe said that if you donât want to go, you can rest at home for a few days. Itâs not too late to go when you want to go.â Sofia lowered her head and said in a muffled voice, âHe is quite good.â Emily was a little helpless. She looked at the silent Ethan and comforted him, âThe principal has already gathered all the teachers for a meeting. That kind of thing will never happen again. Moreover, Jacob has also been expelled. Ethan, donât be sad.â
Hearing that Jacob was expelled, Ethan looked up in surprise. âReally? We wonât be bullied in the future?â His eyes were bright.
Emily nodded gently. âYou wonât.â After a pause, she continued, âSo, Mommy hopes that you can get better soon. You still have to go to school.â
Sofia did not speak and turned her head away, obviously somewhat resistant.
Ethan heaved a sigh of relief and said to her with a well-behaved face, âOkay, Mommy. I will be good in the future and never cause trouble for you again.â Seeing him like this, Sofia also said softly, âAlright.â
The two children were so sensible that it made oneâs heart ache. Emilyâs eyes were filled with pity. She kissed her children and said softly, âMommy doesnât blame you. I know you are the most sensible. These few days, you can stay at home and recuperate. You can go back to class next week.â
Ethan and Sofia nodded in agreement.
In the afternoon, Emily went to the herbal garden to pick medicine, took it home, and put it on the balcony to bask in the sun.
After dinner, she took the herbs to Lucasâ house and gave him the medicine.
She held the medicine in her left hand and held Sofia in her right hand.
The little girl insisted on going with her, so she agreed. When they arrived at Lucasâ home, it was the first time that Sofia saw such a luxurious villa. Her eyes lit up and she looked around. She exclaimed, âUncle Lucasâ house is so big, so beautiful!â Her voice was soft.
Emily poked her face with her hand and gently taught her, âSofia, donât look around. Do you understand?â The little girl blinked and nodded obediently, no longer looking around.
They entered the main door. At this time, Lucas was handling documents in the main hall.
Uncle Jack walked in and reported respectfully. âYoung Master, Doctor Armstrong is here. She even brought her daughter.â
Lucas didnât even raise his head as he said indifferently, âLet them in.â Uncle Jack responded and welcomed them into the room.
Just as Emily and Sofia entered, Sofia immediately called out obediently, âHello, Uncle.â Lucas replied gently, âHello.â The two of them sat down. Lucas looked at Emily and asked, âIs Ethan better?â
Emily answered honestly, âItâs nothing. Itâs just a small injury. Heâll be fine after two days of recuperation.â Lucas hesitated for a while and said, âThe kindergarten they are in is under the Greens Group. I have already asked them to clean it up. I believe that there will not be that kind of thing again.â The implication was that he hoped that the two children would no longer have to worry about it. Emily suddenly realized that it was no wonder that the principal was so humble. It was because of Lucas. He helped her again. She was in a complicated mood and thanked him, âThank you for your help, Mr. Greens.â
Lucas said lightly, âThereâs no need. The kindergarten has to be responsible for this matter. Itâs my duty to discipline the people under me.â He changed the topic and said, âThere is something that I still feel like I should tell you. I have investigated and found out that it was Charles Johnson who instigated this matter.â
When Emily heard this, her expression immediately became extremely ugly. Her beautiful eyes were filled with anger. To actually aim at a child was simply despicable and shameless! She suppressed her anger and said to Lucas again, âI still have to thank Mr. Greens.â She handed the medicinal herbs over and instructed, âThis medicinal herb is fresh. I just picked it. When they boil the medicine tonight, make them put one down. Also, it will take half an hour for acupuncture today. Mr. Greens, when will you be free?â Lucas thought about it and said, âI have an important phone call meeting later. I wonât until nine oâclock.â Emily glanced at the time. There were still two hours left. âAlright, Iâll wait for you.â Lucas nodded and ordered Uncle Jack to bring some fruits and pastries, placing them on the table. He said to Emily and Sofia, âYou guys sit for a while, and help yourself.â After that, he went straight to the study.
