Chapter 486: 486. Directly pierce_1

"Mrs. Campbell, I’m truly sorry, I wasn’t watching Elly when he got into a fight with his classmate, and he got hurt—it’s my oversight at work, I’m so very sorry."

She began to apologize, but the reason she gave was trivializing the main issue, merely saying she had been inattentive.

After all, a teacher manages over twenty children in a class. Occasional negligence is inevitable, and she felt that Mrs. Campbell would surely understand her.

However, Elly just looked at her with a smile that was not quite a smile, her eyes showing a chill that was somewhat reminiscent of Adam Jones.

Miss Davis’s heart skipped a beat, and before she could brace herself, Elly spoke, "Does Miss Davis truly not know, or are you pretending not to know? We both understand very well what’s going on."

"Mrs. Campbell..."

Miss Davis’s face paled a few shades as she hurried to explain but was interrupted by Elly raising her hand, "Miss Davis, I understand your intention to please the parents of the children. The call you made to me yesterday, was it at the instigation of Xiao Ming’s parents?"

Elly didn’t beat around the bush but went straight to the point.

Shock flashed across Miss Davis’s eyes, but it quickly dissipated, and she hastily clarified, "No... not at all..."

"Miss Davis, I understand your thoughts, but that does not mean I agree with your actions, especially when your behavior has already hurt my son. I am not a generous person, and I hold grudges quite strongly."

She looked at Miss Davis’s face turning paler still without a hint of pity and continued, "I’m also quite aware of the mockery and defamation that William and I would face today if his father had not come along."

She didn’t care about herself, but the thought of everything Elly had to endure made the fire in Elly’s heart uncontrollable.

"As a model for students, Miss Davis does not even have the basic intent to protect children. If there’s another child in a similar situation to Elly, I wonder how Miss Davis would treat them."

Elly spoke in an even tone, without any excessive harshness or anger, yet the calm manner of speaking made every word she said deeply unsettling.

Miss Davis had thought that because Elly had stood quietly beside Adam Jones without saying a word before, she would be easy to talk to. That’s why she’d taken the chance to apologize while William’s father was not around, thinking that if Elly forgave her, she could be at peace with herself.

But the result was that she realized she had been too naive. This woman who seemed easy to talk to was actually not much better than Adam Jones.

At this moment, Miss Davis deeply regretted trying to please Xiao Ming’s parents by offending a couple she should not have crossed.

She knew that teachers at this kindergarten earned twice as much as those at other kindergartens, and she had fought hard to get in.

The parents who sent their children here were all wealthy or noble, and because she was the children’s teacher, the parents were all very polite to her. She had truly been blinded by her own folly to make such a stupid mistake.

If she were to be dismissed from the kindergarten by President Drago because of this incident, she would truly despise Xiao Ming’s parents.

Miss Davis looked at Elly, her lips dry, knowing that further excuses would be pointless. It was better to admit her mistake frankly.

"Mrs. Jones, I am really sorry, I made a mistake this time. I shouldn’t have done something so foolish that hurt little Elly. I’m truly sorry, and I hope you and Mr. Jones can forgive me just this once, I really am very sorry..."
