The Kiss that Sparked it All novel Chapter 1748

The man still seemed determined to create a fuss. His jaw was clenched in anger as he said, "I don't care what provoked this! Your son has injured my son, and he needs to apologize and take responsibility! If you don't get your son to apologize to mine, not only will he have to leave this preschool, but I'll make sure you have a tough time in Greenhaven. Do you understand me?"

The mother, heartbroken, gently caressed her son's battered, pudgy face. "Yes! Absolutely! My son has never been treated like this! And furthermore, he was just being a little playful with a female classmate. It wasn’t your son's place to interfere!"

Ellinor was taken aback by the couple's remarks, and they glanced at each other in silence.

The director, stuck in the middle, was in a difficult position. On one hand, she realized that this couple was truly unreasonable, but on the other, she didn't want to offend them.

This couple was well-known in Greenhaven for their wealth, and compared to them, Ellinor, a single mother raising her three children, didn't stand a chance.

With this in mind, the director tried to calm the couple down, then pulled Ellinor aside to speak in hushed tones.

"Ellinor, I know your son, Baber, is a good, honest child, and I know this isn't his fault. But this couple isn't easy to deal with. You're a single mother raising three kids, so it must not be easy. Sometimes it's better to swallow your pride and just apologize. Why not just let it go?"

Ellinor squinted at the director, who seemed to have no backbone at all. Although she understood her intentions, she still felt disdain.

"Why should my son apologize when he didn't do anything wrong? Director, I send my children to your school to earn knowledge, not to learn how to back down when bullied. I'll consider transferring all my children to another school."

The director was speechless, and her face was flushed with embarrassment.

The father, seeing Ellinor's refusal to back down, became even more aggressive. "Don't think you can just transfer your son, and this will all be over! Unless your son apologizes to mine, I'll make sure you can't live peacefully in Greenhaven or anywhere else in the country! By then, it will be too late for you to beg me for mercy!"
