The situation is quite simple.

It's just a dispute between two children.

But as soon as Chelsea Carter finished speaking.

Eberhard Ross's mom flew into a rage.

She put down the child in her arms, stood up abruptly, pointed at Chelsea Carter, and shouted, "Nonsense, there's no way our Juniors would lie; it's definitely your little brat who lied. Speak up, how exactly did you scratch our Juniors, or else I'll tear your mouth apart."

In her outburst.

Dirk Carter was somewhat displeased.

Not to mention the filthy language from her mouth.

This kind of attitude would scare the children, too.

Sure enough.

Under Eberhard Ross's mom's intimidation.

Chelsea Carter's face turned pale.

Frightened, she hid behind Dirk Carter.

Unexpectedly, this made Eberhard Ross's mom even more excited.

She sneered, "See? Still won't admit it, feeling guilty? Dirk Carter, let me tell you, your child at such a young age has already learned to lie; when she grows up, she'll definitely be a fraud."

"Enough!"

Dirk Carter finally couldn't hold back.

He shouted loudly, "Eberhard Ross's mom, please keep your mouth clean. I wasn't holding it against you because I understand you're just protective of your child. This matter is not complicated; isn't there surveillance in the classroom? We can check to understand who's responsible. If it's our Chelsea Carter's fault, I'll apologize and compensate accordingly. But if it's your child who's at fault, then you should apologize to my child."

"Ha, an apology. Wishful thinking. Teacher, tell me, how exactly did our Juniors get hurt?"

Eberhard Ross's mom looked at the teacher and asked.

A trace of panic flashed across the teacher's face.

However, she quickly calmed down.

She turned to Dirk Carter and said, "Dirk Carter, since I brought you here, the matter has been cleared up. Your child, this isn't the first time such things have happened. You couldn't possibly think I would wrong her?"

"Dad, I didn't. I really didn't…"

Shaking Dirk Carter's leg.

Chelsea Carter said, feeling aggrieved.

Dirk Carter nodded at her.

Then said, "I believe my daughter. Since you say you've cleared it up, bring out the surveillance footage for us to see."

"There's no surveillance; the cameras are broken."

The teacher said without a second thought.

Dirk Carter paused for a moment and said, "Alright, since there's no surveillance and both sides can't reach an agreement, I think we should call the police."

After saying that.

He took out his phone.

This action.

Made the teacher more nervous.

She sighed and said, "Dirk Carter, please step out for a moment, I have something to say to you."

Dirk Carter considered briefly.

Told Chelsea Carter, "Wait for a minute, Daddy will be right back."

Following that.

He walked out into the corridor with the teacher.

The teacher spoke frankly, "Dirk Carter, regarding this incident, I advise you not to call the police; otherwise, things will escalate, and it won't look good for anyone."

"What do you mean?"

Dirk Carter asked in confusion.

The teacher glanced back at the office.

And said, "Juniors is not like your children; his father, Jasper Ross, is the deputy director of the Saguenay Street Sub-district Office. If you want your child to continue studying here, listen to me."

Suddenly.

Dirk Carter realized things.

He asked, "Teacher, from what you're saying, the injury on the other child's arm has nothing to do with our Chelsea Carter, right?"

No guilt showed on the teacher's face.

She said, "I'm in a predicament myself. Juniors hurt himself by falling; as a teacher, I'd be held more accountable. If the child was scratched by another child, then they naturally wouldn't be able to make it a big deal. You accept this situation, and in the future, I'll take good care of Chelsea Carter. I suppose you don't want to create trouble for yourself, right?"

He understood.

Completely understood.

Juniors indeed hurt himself by falling.

He didn't get his snacks, so he framed Chelsea Carter.

The teacher was fearful of being implicated and falsely accused Chelsea, despite knowing Juniors lied.

Dirk Carter took a deep breath.

Just as he was about to refuse.

A cry suddenly came from the office.

He felt a chill inside.

It was Chelsea's sobbing.

Unable to consider reasoning with the teacher, he rushed back inside.

He saw Juniors pulling Chelsea's hair and pressing her to the ground.

"What are you doing?"

Dirk Carter shouted furiously.

He pulled Juniors away from Chelsea.

And picked Chelsea up.

Chelsea was already crying in heartbreak by then.

Eberhard Ross's mom, with her arms crossed and legs cocked, sat with a cynical tone, "Oh, feeling the pain? When your daughter hurt our Juniors, why didn't you feel the pain then? Serves you right! Juniors, let me tell you, whenever you see Chelsea Carter, hit her hard, just like today. Do you understand?"

"Understood."

Juniors nodded and said.

He was a little chubby.

In terms of strength, Chelsea Carter was no match.

"Is this how you teach children?"

Dirk Carter questioned.

Eberhard Ross's mom coldly replied, "Yes, that's exactly how I teach. Our Juniors does whatever he wants. If you can't bear it, you can withdraw, but I guarantee you, from now on, no school in Ronan City will accept your child."

This remark infuriated Dirk Carter completely.

He turned to the teacher beside him.

And asked, "Ms. Sutton, you heard what Eberhard Ross's mom said, can you assure my daughter's safety?"

"No."

The teacher shook her head indifferently and said.

This statement.

Made Eberhard Ross's mom even more smug.

She looked at Dirk Carter with disdain.

As if asking, what can you do to me?

"Fine, given that situation, my child will transfer."

After saying this.

Dirk Carter stood up with Chelsea in his arms.

Just about to leave.

Eberhard Ross's mom blocked his way.

Asked, "Leaving just like that?"

"What more do you want?"

"Regarding my son's injury, aren't you going to give an explanation?"

Eberhard Ross's mom asked.

"What kind of explanation do you want?"

"First, apologize to my son, second, compensation. I need to take my son for a full check-up; what if there's a lasting injury?"

Eberhard Ross's mom arrogantly commanded.

Dirk Carter retorted, "What if I don't pay?"

"Then I'll have your daughter taken to the police station. If the trauma affects her psychologically, it won't be my responsibility."

The woman said confidently.

Upon hearing this, Dirk Carter decided not to leave.

He put Chelsea down.

Grabbed a chair and sat down.

Said, "Alright, I'll humor you. You go ahead and call the police right now; I'd like to see who dares to take my daughter away."

"You refuse a toast, but accept a penalty."

Eberhard Ross's mom murmured.

She took out her phone.

And stepped out of the office.

About two minutes passed.

She returned.

And told Dirk Carter, "The police are already on their way. We'll just wait here. I want to see how stubborn you'll be then…"
