Chapter 409


    Chapter 409


    Aster was an obedient child. He wouldn’t even hold another girl’s hand if there wasn’t any need to


    do so. That was why he felt very ufortable when Bethany kissed him against his will.


    In the eyes of other adults, childish interactions like these between children might seem


    harmless, and some might even find it adorable, but Larissa didn’t feel the same way


    Having said that, she didn’t think that Bethany was guilty of sexual harassment either.


    Based on what she knew about her personality, Bethany was probably a spoiled kid at home.


    Moreover, her family might not have paid much attention to interactions between boys and girls.


    Considering the girl’s personality, it seemed likely that she had been spoiled by her elders at


    home, and the family might not have given much importance to this issue


    The reason why Bethany kissed you is probably because she likes you. Don’t be angry with her,


    okay?” Larissa exined to Aster patiently, “But in the future, if she tries to kiss you again, you


    have to tell her clearly that girls should not randomly kiss boys, okay?”


    Aster nodded obediently, saying, “Okay.”


    The next day, Larissa hurried to the kindergarten and managed to pick Aster up before 7 pm.

    As soon as Aster saw her, he threw himself into Larissa’s arms, tears streaming down his face.


    “What’s wrong?” Larissa anxiously questioned as she squatted down and wiped the tears away


    from his face.


    Biting his lower lip, Aster remained silent.


    His homeroom teacher emerged behind him and spoke apologetically, “Aster was bitten by a


    ssmate, a young girl. I’ve already reprimanded her, but…‘


    The teacher pursed her lips, her gaze flickering with uncertainty as she hesitated.


    Larissa blurted out the first thought that came to her mind, “Is that ssmate a girl named


    Bethany?”


    Larissa couldn’t think of anyone else other than her.


    The homeroom teacher widened her eyes in surprise. “Yes, how did you know?”


    “Aster mentioned her to me yesterday.” Larissa didn’t go into details.


    The homeroom teacher let out a long sigh.


    “Bethany is quite a willful child. She’s been spoiled by her family, and her mother’s personality is


    no better. In her ss, she often bullies her ssmates. She ys mean tricks on them and even


    goes as far as to physically beat up the boys. The parents hadined about her, but no one


    could do anything because of her family’s influence and reputation Some of them couldn’t stand


    her anymore and requested to transfer sses or even change schools because of her. However,


    because so many students have transferred out of our ss. the principal made a rule that


    transferring sses is no longer allowed”


    Upon hearing herst sentence, Larissa found herself with no alternative but to keep Aster in the


    same ss, as transferring him was not an option.


    “Can you give me the contact information for Bethany’s parents? I wish to have a word with them.”


    Larissa could only try to solve the problem from another angle.


    The homeroom teacher smiled bitterly.


    “It’s not a problem to give you her mother’s contact information. To be honest with you, all the


    teachers in our ss and most of the parents have already tried talking to Bethany’s mother.


    However, she is very headstrong and refuses to admit that Bethany is at fault. She often puts the


    me on other children for her daughter’s misbehavior. Even if you called her, there is no use.”


    Despite this, Larissa insisted on getting Bethany’s mother’s phone number.


    Back home, Aster seemed to be in a depressed state.


    Although Larissa had bought him his favorite burger and fried chicken, her attempts to cheer him


    up failed.


    Finally, Larissa sat Aster on herp and hugged him tightly. In a soft voice, she asked. “Tell me,


    why did Bethany bite you?”


    Upon hearing this, Aster began to cry again


    “She wanted to kiss me.” he sniffled, “I didn’t let her, so she got angry and bit my arm.”


    He raised his right arm to show Larissa.


    There was a faint bite mark on the inner side of his arm, close to his wrist.


    The fact that the marks hadn’t faded after so long showed that it was quite a severe bite.


    Larissa could feel the anger welling up within her instantly.
