I'm Sorry, But I Love You novel Chapter 50

Catherine panted and asked, “What happened to Lincoln?”

Anderson didn’t answer her question and simply headed towards the teacher’s office.

“Hey, your child beat up my child. I will definitely let him pay the price.” Just as Catherine arrived at the door of the teacher’s office, she heard the roar from inside.

As she was so anxious, she pushed open the door without knocking at it and walked in.

“Who are you?”

“I’m Sophia and Lincoln’s mother.” As soon as Catherine entered the office, she found Lincoln standing in front of the office desk holding Sophia’s hand and there was a fat middle-aged man by his side.

When hearing Catherine’s voice, Sophia let go of Lincoln’s hand and hugged Catherine’s leg, calling her name in a husky voice, “Mummy.”

Catherine squatted down, “It’s fine honey. Don’t be afraid. Mummy is here.”

Catherine anxiously checked whether there was any wound on Sophia’s body and then squat down again to have a check on Lincoln. Seeing that there was no wound on his body except a few scratches, she was relieved a little.

When seeing this scene, the fat man sat in a sharp tone, “Are you the mother of these two little bastards?”

Hearing the address, Catherine furrowed her brows subconsciously and looked up coldly at the man. She then turned around to gaze at the woman who was sitting behind the office desk, “Teacher, what happened?”

“If it was Lincoln’s fault, naturally we’ll bear the responsibility. But if it’s not his fault, I will not allow Lincoln to suffer grievance.” Lincoln had always been a reasonable boy and Catherine didn’t believe that he would fight against others for no reasons.

The middle-aged man pulled out a child that was much taller and fatter than Lincoln from behind and roared, “You child hit my child and now he’s bleeding. And you’re thinking of avoiding responsibility!”

Hannah Martinez, the class teacher, felt it unbearable and persuaded him, “Mr. Elliott, please be rational and keep your voice down. Other teachers in the office still need to work.”

“I can’t be rational. My child just said that he doesn’t have a mother. Is it necessary for him to beat up my child?”

The middle-aged man said confidently, “My wife is a director of the Clark Group. If you can’t give me a satisfying solution, I won’t let go of this matter easily.”

Gazing at the middle-aged man who didn’t give a shit to her persuasion, Hannah smiled at Catherine helpless, “Here’s what happened. When Sophia was playing with her classmates during the break of last class, Robinson cursed her, saying that she doesn’t have a mother. Sophia argued with him and Robinson lost and pushed Sophia down onto the ground. Lincoln saw the scene and hit Robinson.”

“This was what had happened. Although it was Robinson who started the fighting, his wound was more serious. So I call you guys here to negotiate about how to solve this matter.”

Hannah rummaged through the drawer and then took out a sheet of invoice, “Robinson’s wounds have been treated. And this is the invoice of the medical expense.”

Catherine took the invoice and took a glance at it. She then turned around to look at the man who still looked angry, “Mr. Elliott, my child should be blamed for hitting your child. But the cause of the matter is because your child cooked up a rumor and hit Sophia. What about this? Let the children apologize to each other and I will compensate the medical expense to you. Is this okay?”

“It’s only dozens of yuan. Are you trying to humiliate me?” The man pointed at Catherine arrogantly, “My wife is on the way to school. Do you know how much she will lose? She’s a C-level manager of the Clark Group!”

Catherine stole a glance at Anderson who was watching the show at a corner and said helplessly, “So, Mr. Elliott, how do you want to solve this matter?”
