Chapter 1627
“Well…” Maisie hesitated on how to proceed.
The children were very young but already had a clear sense of right and wrong. As their teacher, if she
couldn’t measure up to the children, how could she be a role model for them?
Maisie bit her lip and first checked on James’ injuries before taking him to the school infirmary. Then,
she returned to take Persephone by the hand and headed to the office for a private conversation.
She ced Persephone in a chair in the office and squatted down in front of her.
“Sephy, I wasn’t ming you for what happened.” Maisie smiled and whispered in her ear, “A girl
doesn’t have the physical advantage to fight with a boy.”
In an instant, the little princess’ eyes lit up, filled with a mixture of surprise and emotions. Then her
tears fell.
“It’s alright, it’s alright!” She raised her chubby little hand, trying to reassure her teacher. “I’m not hurt,
and I’m really good at fighting! Ms. Maisie, don’t worry about me!”
“Alright.” Maisie patted her head and tidied up her disheveled hair. “Now, can you tell me the whole
story of what happened?”
Persephone perked up and began exining in detail how James had been bullying their ssmates,
even lifting a girl’s skirt. She ended by proudly saying, “Ms. Maisie, don’t you worry. This little matter
wouldn’t even be a blip in the underworld!”
Maisie couldn’t help but chuckle. She knew Persephone was close to her grandfather, and her
grandfather was none other than the famous Nichs Thompson. Under such guidance, it was easy to
imagine what kind of person she would grow into.
“So, besides fighting with him, have you used other ways to support your ssmates?” Maisie asked.
“Of course!” Persephone said honestly. “I made all of them ignore him!”
“You… isted him?”Books Chapters Are Daily Updated Join & Stay Updated For All Books Updates…
Persephone pouted, furrowing her brow in confusion. She didn’t quite understand what ‘isting’
meant. However, since the teacher said so, it must be right!

“Yes, I isted him. Is that a problem? My grandpa said that we shouldn’t y with little rascals like
him!”
Maisie was at a loss for words and didn’t know whether to cry orugh. While James had certainly
been misbehaving, Persephone’s recent physical altercation with him wasn’t exactly justifiable. She
had lost the moral high ground she previously held by fighting with him.
This was exactly what Maisie was most worried about. She took a deep breath and decided to send
Persephone home and then discuss how to deal with James with Ruth.
However, Zuko was currently apanying Lina for a prenatal check-up and couldn’t pick up the child.
Zephyr and Cordelia had gone on vacation to Southeast Aciatic, leaving Centrolis.
Maisie had no choice but to contact Daniel, and together, they took Persephone to the Thompson
residence.
As soon as they entered, they saw Nichs running over, nervously inquiring whether his precious
granddaughter had been hurt and whether the opponent was powerful or used any special martial arts
techniques.
Linda gave a heavy cough, and Nichs stopped his prattling.
She looked up at Maisie and Daniel. These two already gave her enough headaches, and now they
were apanied by Persephone. She couldn’t help but wonder about James’ background and the
support behind him.
Linda rubbed her temples and politely asked Maisie to briefly exin the situation.
Maisie recounted it while Daniel couldn’t hold back hisughter.
Linda coughed again to ensure her blood pressure was still within normal range.
“Sephy, a girl shouldn’t be fighting outside. It’s not proper,” she tried to counsel her granddaughter.
Persephone was quick to respond. “Grandpa said women can also have a ce in the underworld!”
Linda was baffled. “But… it’s not right for you to insult someone. You shouldn’t call your ssmate a
little rascal.”
“I haven’t even called him a mongrel yet!”
“Who taught you that?!”
