Chapter 158


    “What?” Anne’s face immediately turned pale. “Is it bad?”


    “About the size of a thumb, I had already gotten the paramedics to treat her. I apologize on behalf of the


    school. This was our negligence. She is now ying in my office. What time will you be here?” Lucas


    apologized sincerely.


    Anne touched her forehead. It was slightly cold from the shock. “Don’t worry, I will go as soon as I finish


    lunch.”


    “Okay.”


    Lilian returned to her seat quickly after eavesdropping, pretending nothing had happened.


    Anne came back.


    Lilian asked, “What’s the matter?”


    “My colleague was looking for me, nothing big.”


    Anne and Lilian were about to make a move after the meal.


    Lilian offered to send her back but it was declined.


    It was mainly because she was not going back to the clinic; instead, she drove to the school.


    She was not aware that she was being followed all the way to the school.


    Lilian’s car was parked at a junction not far from the school. She was confused to see Anne entering the


    schoolpound.


    Was she here to see the principal?


    However, Anne’s tone on the phone call did not really sound like it. It sounded like she was there for


    another reason.


    Then, what was the reason that got Anne so panicked?


    Anne arrived at Lucas’s office and saw Chloe on the couch. In front of her was a tea table. She was


    holding a ‘running‘ unicorn in her hands, ying with it.


    N?velDrama.Org holds ? this.


    “Mama!” Chloe’s eyes lit up as soon as she saw her mama.


    Anne strode across and saw Chloe’s fleshy thighs exposed. The blisters on her thigh popped and were


    covered in ointment.


    It was like what Lucas described, just the size of a thumb.


    “Based on the rules, the school needs to paypensation,” Lucas said.


    Anne stood up. “No need for that. The blister isn’t that bad. She will be fine in no time.”


    “This is not a matter of serious injury or not. It was the school’s negligence, we need topensate for


    it.” Lucas insisted and pushed his smart–looking spectacles. “The medical consultation plus the


    medications was less than a hundred, plus the mental distress that the kid has to go through, plus the


    cost to regain the parent’s confidence in the school…”


    Anneughed dryly.


    “In total, six to seven hundred dors.” Lucas calcted it using his mental arithmetic. Anne waved her


    hands. “Really, there is no need for it!”


    Lucas said earnestly, “The parents chose our school, and it means their confidence in our school. The


    school has the responsibility and ountability to protect the kids from all kinds of danger, no matter


    physically or emotionally. This is bad for the school if you do not ept this.”


    Anne was speechless.


    What he said made alot of sense. She could not rebut.


    Chloe wanted to stay in school with her brothers, so Anne went back to the clinic first.


    In the car not too far away, Lilian did not budge. She grew more dubious about Anne now, but she could


    not enter the school.


    These two days, Sarah had made a few phone calls to Anne, but she did not pick up.


    She was wary that Sarah would suddenly show up, so she was always careful whenever she sent her


    kids to and fro the school bus.


    The three kids were smart and intelligent, and they would not usually roam around uninformed, so Anne


    was less worried about them.


    As for Anthony, he never appeared after the day that Anne went to see him at Archduke Group.


    Anne understood something.


    It must be rted to the woman.


    However, she could not have Sarah calling her all the time!


    Therefore, when she got off work, she pulled out her phone again and saw that Anthony was at the


    Royal Mansion.


    That way, they could discuss things face–to–face,


    As long as Anthony did not pick on her about the divorce again, she was willing to do just anything.
