Unfinished Business with You
Chapter 62
Although the quality of education, the environment, and the safety measures of Imperial Kindergarten
are among the best within the industry, they arenât the only kindergarten available, right? So, whatâs
with their indifferent attitude in addressing this matter?
Then, the female teacher smiled. In the beginning, she had no idea how she was going to broach the
topic, but this made things much easier for her. âWe are very sorry that an incident like this occurred on
school premises. Therefore, the school will pay for the childrenâs medical fees. As for taking
responsibility, we find it a little far-fetched to blame it on the children. On the other hand, as parents,
you have raised your hand against one of our students. No matter what you say, that was unacceptable
behavior! If you donât want to send your children to the Imperial Kindergarten, you can send them to
another kindergarten. We wonât force you!â
When Florence heard those words, she found it hard to believe. âWhat did you say? Are you asking us
to go to another kindergarten?â
She thought she could threaten the teacher. To her surprise, the teacher wasnât afraid at all.
âYes. These are the childrenâs tuition fees; the school will reimburse you for them. Also, this 1,000 is for
the medical fees of the three children.â As the female teacher spoke, she pushed the money into
Florenceâs hands.
Then, Florence asked in astonishment, âA-Are you expelling our children?!â
In response, the female teacher smiled gently. âThe school is simply complying with your wishes and
giving you the freedom of choice!â
The two others tagging along with Florence became anxious and hurriedly spoke up, âPlease donât do
this, teacher! We donât have any intentions of transferring our children to a different school! The
children only have one more year left before they graduate from kindergarten! If they transfer out now,
they will have to familiarize themselves with a new environment and get to know new friends all over
again! We donât want them to be transferred out!â
âThatâs right, teacher. I understand that our children were a little out of line in this incident. So, we will
discipline them properly at home.â
Following that, Florence yelled at the two of them angrily, âWill you grow a spine?! Arenât they clearly
expelling our children from the school? So, why are you shamelessly begging them for mercy? Itâs not
like there arenât any other good kindergartens out there!â Glaring at the female teacher, she continued,
âItâs just a rotten kindergarten! We donât need to come here! Whatâs so amazing about this place
anyway? Iâm going to report this school to the Bureau of Education!â
Then, the female teacher smiled and nodded. âPlease do!â
Those words of hers were casually mentioned, but they sounded extremely arrogantâalmost as if she
were telling them to go ahead and try.
As a result, Florence and the two others with her were so shocked that they were utterly speechless. In
the end, they left in a huff of fury, dragging their children with them as they left.
On the other hand, Eugene came out of the principalâs office and immediately headed to the school
infirmary to meet Olivia and her son.
The mother and son pair were talking about something among themselves and laughing away happily.
âWhy are you laughing?â he asked.
Thus, Olivia lifted her gaze and looked at him. The man was big and tall. Moreover, he seemed to be
covered in a golden glow. Although his face remained as impassive as usual, he made her feel safe.
Then, she laughed. âNorth is bragging. He claims that if he didnât rip his pants, the three other children
would have been in worse condition.â
On the other hand, Eugene didnât smile. Instead, he was like a father educating his son, saying, âThere
will always be somebody better than you out there. So, everything you do must be within your limits.
There are many ways to deal with a person; you donât always need to fight them head-on.â
Olivia was slightly surprised. I canât believe the little guyâs careless words made him so serious.
North looked like he didnât quite understand. âYou mean I canât even fight back even if they hit me?â
Eugene put his hands in his pockets as he looked North in the eye and said, âOf course, not. When that
happens, you need to defend yourself. Still, you need to have a clear understanding of your own
abilities. Do you have the strength to defeat them? If not, then youâll have to bear with it for the time
being. Blindly charging forward will only get you hurt! Besides, enduring it doesnât mean that youâre
admitting defeat; you just need to find another way to deal with them. Make yourself strongerâso
strong that nobody can pick on you; so strong that you can protect whoever you want to protect!â
