After that, the teacher pushed Amy forcefully.
….
The little girl stumbled and was about to fall.
Keira hurried forward and picked up Amy, gently patting her back to soothe her. “Amy, don’t cry, don’t cry…”
Amy clung to her neck. “Mommy, Amy is obedient, Amy is good. Did Amy do something wrong? Amy can apologize; Amy wants to go to school…”
Her words made Keira sad.
She looked at the teacher. “I need an explanation!”
Upon hearing this, the teacher glanced at the people around her and scoffed. “What explanation? She’s been crying in school, disrupting the other children in class. I told her not to come tomorrow. Is there a problem?”
Keira then asked, “Why was she crying?”
When Amy was mistreated by Howard’s mother, she was too scared to cry, and she wasn’t a crybaby in general, so how could she be crying all day today?
The teacher sneered. “How would I know? That’s your child, not mine! I think she might have some illness. If so, get her to a hospital! Don’t disturb other students!”
Keira frowned at once, her eyes turning sharp.
Amy was only two years old and couldn’t articulate what had happened… Just as she was puzzled, a child’s voice rang out. “She didn’t let Amy eat. That’s why she cried.”
After that, Keira saw a mother who had also come to pick up her child standing nearby.
A little boy stood by her side.
The boy was a year older than Amy and would be in kindergarten next year, so he spoke clearly and logically. “She also scolded Amy, made her stand as punishment, and didn’t let her take a nap!”
Upon hearing this, Keira immediately glared at the teacher.
The teacher’s eyes flickered, showing some guilt, but she still said, “That’s impossible! Brandon, don’t talk nonsense!”
The little boy named Brandon looked to his mother upon hearing this.
The elegant lady immediately said, “My son never lies.”
Keira also looked at Amy. “Is that so?”
Amy nodded while crying. “Amy was hungry, but tried hard not to cry, also sleepy… not crying…”
The teacher then glared at her. “What nonsense are you spouting? You’re telling lies at the drop of a hat! What a lowborn! Who can trust what these two- or three-year-olds say?!”
The elegant lady, upon hearing this, looked slightly displeased.
Keira frowned and said, “In that case, let’s check the surveillance.”
The teacher was outrageously defiant. “You aren’t qualified to check the surveillance, and we don’t randomly show our school’s surveillance to others, to prevent invading the privacy of other children!”
Keira was shocked.
She scoffed and picked up her phone. “I might not have the right, but the police certainly do, right? I’m calling them right now!”
The teacher wasn’t scared at all.
The police arrived quickly, and when they went to check the surveillance footage in the monitor room, they discovered that the footage from the camera in the classroom had vanished!
With her arms crossed, the teacher was extremely arrogant. “I apologize, I forgot to remind you that the surveillance was under maintenance today.”
Keira didn’t know what to say.
No wonder the teacher was so arrogant. She had gone as far as to destroy the evidence.
Keira scoffed, about to say something when a small voice came from beside her. “Officers, I can testify for Amy!”
Brandon held up his hands and shouted loudly, “The teacher is abusing Amy!”
As soon as these words came out, the teacher immediately frowned.
The police then turned to Mrs. Jones, the boy’s mother. “May I ask if the child can cooperate with our investigation?”
Mrs. Jones was about to speak when a voice came from the door. “Mrs. Jones, I advise you not to meddle in others’ business!”
Everyone turned their heads and saw Christina walking in with a woman two or three years younger than herself.
Keira let out a sneer. She had thought it odd why Amy suddenly became a target, and as it turned out, it was Christina who was stirring up trouble!
Mrs. Jones, hearing this, turned to look at the two women, slightly frowning.
Christina had already walked up to her. “Mrs. Jones, your son must be very busy, right? He doesn’t have time to cooperate with the investigation, does he?”
Mrs. Jones, seeing this and glancing at Keira, then looking at Amy she held in her arms, slowly said, “He’s not that busy.”
Christina was surprised. Her gaze sharpened instantly, and then she stepped forward, confronting Mrs. Jones. “Today’s matter doesn’t concern you. Are you sure you want to wade into this mess?”
Mrs. Jones’s gaze swept over Keira again, and then she smiled. “I just can’t stand seeing a teacher abusing a child. I wouldn’t feel secure with such a teacher educating my son.”
Christina immediately frowned. “If that’s the case, I can help your son transfer to another class.”
“And what about this teacher?” Mrs. Jones didn’t back down. “She has abused a child and that’s it? Miss Olsen, you have a son too. If your son were mistreated, would you let it go so easily?”
Christina glared at her. “Of course not!”
“So…” Mrs. Jones shrugged. “Do unto others as you would have them do unto you. I empathize with this little girl’s plight. My son is friends with her, and I’ll respect my son’s choice.”
“You’re doing this even at the risk of the Olsen family’s reprisal?!” Christina was frantic. “Are you really not afraid of offending us?!”
Mrs. Jones sighed. “My family doesn’t have much business with the Olsen family…”
“You!” Christina was so angry she was at a loss for words, but just then, the woman beside her stepped forward, smiling. “Mrs. Jones, I’ve heard your husband has been looking to partner with the Horton family that recently moved into Clance, right?”
As soon as these words came out, Keira and Lewis exchanged a glance.
When Mrs. Jones heard this, she indeed hesitated for a moment. “That’s correct.”
At that, Christina immediately laughed. “So, having climbed up to the Horton family, you’re not afraid of the Olsen family anymore… but do you know that my sister is about to marry into the Horton family?!”
Mrs. Jones was slightly taken aback by these words.
Christina pointed to the woman beside her, “This is my sister, Victoria. The Horton and Olsen families are preparing to join in matrimony. My sister is about to marry Lewis Horton, the family head. It’s true that you have no business cooperation with the Olsen family, but you still want the cooperation with the Horton family, right?!”
Mrs. Jones frowned.
Christina said, “Do you believe that with just one word from my sister, the cooperation between your family and the Horton family could be canceled?”
At these words, Keira, who was listening on the side, said coldly, “That might be a bit difficult!”
