Adrian Zhekova’s gaze grew heavy.
Children have tender skin, so even a small injury can look serious.
At this moment, Morgan Clarke’s body was covered in bruises and scratches!
That Arthur Woods had deliberately attacked him, avoiding his face so the injuries were hidden from view.
“This is outrageous!” Sheldon Rowland couldn’t help but exclaim angrily.
Although medicine had been applied, these wounds were not going to heal easily.
It would take some time.
Morgan put down his T-shirt.
Cindy Clarke then said, “I chose this nursery because it has a good reputation in Belfard and charges high fees. But yesterday, my child was beaten, humiliated, and even got lost. And you knew nothing about it. And now you have the nerve to come looking for Morgan to take responsibility?”
Cindy took a deep breath and said coldly, “Morgan was wrong to fight. But why did he fight? Does the nursery ignore this because Arthur Woods’ family sponsors the nursery? I don’t want to doubt that you are biased.”
“His family might be the sponsors, but we have paid all the nursery fees in full. My son shouldn’t have to suffer at your nursery. If that’s the case, then your nursery isn’t even worth it!”
That was quite an accusation from Cindy.
Although it was true, Teacher Linda couldn’t admit it!
“Morgan’s mother, you misunderstand. Our nursery treats every child equally. How could this happen? I was just neglectful earlier.” Teacher Linda quickly said.
Cindy didn’t make a sound. Was this matter going to be resolved with a simple claim of negligence?
“So? Does Arthur Woods’ family want us to take responsibility?” Cindy asked coldly.
Teacher Linda didn’t dare to admit it. This was now a matter between parents.
Therefore, Teacher Linda said, “Morgan’s mother, Arthur Woods’ mother will be at the nursery at half-past one. So we hope you can come too. If Morgan can come, that would be even better. If there are any misunderstandings, let’s clear them up.”
“Alright,” Cindy agreed readily.
Teacher Linda didn’t expect Cindy to agree so easily. She originally planned to persuade her further.
Hearing that, Teacher Linda immediately said happily, “Then we will wait for you at the nursery.”
The word “we” made Cindy smirk.
After hanging up the phone, Cindy told Adrian Zhekova and Sheldon Rowland,
“Mr. Zhekova, Mr. Rowland, I’m really sorry for the trouble today. I have to take Morgan to the nursery now…”
As Cindy spoke, she paused for a moment and took an insulated food container from her bag.
“I made these beef strips myself,” Cindy placed the container of beef strips on Sheldon Rowland’s desk. This was originally intended to be a snack for Morgan.
“You can try them. If you like them, I can make more, along with other snacks. I think it’s quite convenient to have something to eat when you’re hungry at work.”
She didn’t have anything more suitable as a token of appreciation at hand and could only give a container of beef strips.
Cindy felt quite embarrassed.
However, Sheldon didn’t feel that way at all and accepted it with surprise, “I really didn’t do much. This is too kind.”
“No, you helped a lot,” Cindy insisted.
Adrian Zhekova, standing nearby, narrowed his eyes.
How did it turn out that Sheldon Rowland got all the credit?
Without his approval, Sheldon’s words would have been useless!
This woman didn’t thank him, the one making the final decision, and instead ignored him to thank Sheldon Rowland?
Was she blind?!
