    Ste was momentarily confused but quickly grasped David’s intention.

    She patiently exined. “Dad, it’s all because Ang is heartless. She even reported her own brother


    to the police, and 1 heard he now has a criminal record.”


    David finally understood and felt somewhat relieved. No one would support such a heartless person.


    Not only could Ste retaliate against Ang today, but he could also witness Ang’s mother


    disciplining her.


    Good, let her understand the consequences of bullying his precious daughter!


    Scarlett was furious with Ang.


    Seeing that there were still people around, Scarlett restrained her urge to have Samuel hold Ang


    down for her to hit and sternly ordered, “Ang, yourck of manners is my fault as a mother, but today


    you must apologize to this ssmate. Otherwise, you’remitting intentional assault. Do you want to


    go to the police station too?”


    Ang nced at her but remained silent.


    For some reason, Scarlett felt an inexplicable unease from her gaze.


    It was as if she felt that Ang waspletely disappointed in her, treating her like a stranger.


    But what surged up in her heart was nameless anger.


    Why did she look at her like that? She was her biological mother, who had carried her for ten months..


    Asking her to apologize was like asking her to harm herself.


    David timely interjected, “Madam, I must make it clear to you that an apology from Ang is not


    enough today. I can’t bear toy a finger on my daughter on normal days, but this wild girl hit her! She


    must let my daughter p her back three times, or she can go to the police station.”


    Scarlett was taken aback, and when she looked at Ste, she noticed her swollen face.


    Was it appropriate to return the ps directly?


    “Aunt Scarlett, it’s me, Ste, Fanny’s friend. Today, I was trying to stop Ang from disrupting Fanny’s


    speechpetition, and that’s why she hit me,”


    Ste cried out in grievance. She had been to the Kins Family before, and although she didn’t visit


    often, Scarlett should still recognize her.


    “What?” Scarlett was surprised, and only then did she recognize the swollen–faced Ste. She quickly


    became furious. “Ang, you dared to disrupt Fay’spetition! And you hit Fanny’s friend!”


    Before Ang could say anything, Scarlett red at her. “Mr. Johnston, I think we should resolve this


    matter privately today. It wouldn’t be wise for our family to face public scrutiny.”


    The family had spent a lot of money and effort trying to clear Samuel’s criminal record, and it was still


    unresolved.

    Ang was registered under their family. If she got a criminal record, it would be aplete disaster. If


    they wanted Fanny to have an easy job as a civil servant in the future, it would be impossible.


    Resolving it meant allowing Ste to p her back.


    And Ste was already flexing her wrist, proudly approaching Ang.


    Btch. She still had to obediently let herself be pped back. She was going to scratch her face when


    she pped herter and see how she could attract men in the future.


    Jessica watched these people’s malicious expressions towards Ang, feeling extremely anxious. Why


    hadn’t her father arrived yet?


    She wanted to step forward to help, but Samuel nced at her and blocked her with his arm. “She


    brought this upon herself.”


    Seeing that no one was stopping her, Ste’s eyes gleamed as she walked up to Ang.


    Ang instinctively protected herself but heard Scarlettining on the side. “You’re always


    causing trouble at home and now causing trouble for Donald. Samuel, you go and exin to Uncle


    Donald what happened. I don’t want to see them!”


    Ang’s eyes drooped slightly, and the hand she had raised dropped again.


    If she went to the police station, even if it was eventually proven that Ste was at fault, she probably


    wouldn’t be able to get out for a while, and Donald’s family would have to go through a lot for her.


    Ste red maliciously at the silent Ang, her sharp nails hooked, and she raised her hand high..


    Squeak!


    The office door swung open abruptly, causing Ste to pause and turn her attention towards the


    entrance. To her surprise, it was an elderly man who had entered,


    Was it Jessica’s father? Or Uncle Donald?


    Before she could react, a sound resembling the rolling of a wheelchair reached her ears from outside


    the door.


    A man in a wheelchair was being pushed into the room.


    Ste was taken aback.


    Could there truly be such a handsome man in existence?


    The man had a cold demeanor and a stern face, with features that appeared as if they were chiseled


    by a skilled artist. Despite being confined to a wheelchair, his posture remained upright and


    commanding. emitting an aura of authority that sent a chilling and intimidating vibe without any visible


    signs of anger.


    Such an individual would undoubtedly capture one’s attention in a crowd, making it impossible to divert


    one’s gaze elsewhere.


    Ste was so astonished that she momentarily forgot what she was doing with her hands.

    However, as the man observed her actions and the person in front of her, his brows furrowed


    imperceptibly.


    “What is happening here?” Sebastian had not anticipated stumbling upon someone about to harm


    Ang. In his haste, he disregarded everything else and rushed over to shield her. “Ang, are you


    alright?”


    Ang was also taken aback.


    Why was Jonathan here as well?


    Every time something urred, Jonathan seemed to be present. Ang felt a mix of reassurance and


    anxiety,


    Would Jonathan think she was a troublemaker, always causing problems?


    Thomas assumed that these two individuals were also Ang’s rtives and hesitated. After all, it


    would not reflect well if it became known that a student was being assaulted under his supervision.


    But how was he supposed to pacify David’s anger?


    Just as Thomas grappled with this predicament, he noticed a change in David’s expression. David


    immediately became obsequious, retrieving a cigarette from his jacket pocket and scurrying over to


    Jonathan. “Mr. Lawson, what a pleasant surprise! I was nning to visit your home in a few days.”


    Upon reaching him, the previously arrogant David became as submissive as a eunuch, bowing so low


    that it seemed as if he wanted to bow even lower than Jonathan.


    Jonathan cast him a cold nce. “Is this how your school handles conflicts between children?”


    Ang’s heart skipped a beat, and she recoiled, appearing particrly pitiful.


    “I understand.” David nced between Ang and Jessica, suddenlyprehending. He chuckled


    ingratiatingly. “So this is Mr. Lawson’s child. What a coincidence!”


    With that, he turned to Jessica, assuming the role of a benevolent elder. “So, you are the daughter of


    the Lawson Family. I must admit, I was unaware.”


    Jessica blinked, her mind going nk. Was he referring to her?


    David attempted to win favor with Jessica in an attempt to make amends for his earlier unpleasantness.


    However, he failed to notice the perplexed expressions on the faces of Scarlett, Samuel, and Jessica


    herself.


    Just as David was about to approach Jessica, Jonathan suddenly looked up, his gaze directly falling


    upon Ang.


    “Was there a fight?”


    His tone was casual, making it impossible to discern whether he was pleased or displeased.


    Ang’s heart tightened, and she felt as if Jonathan was unexpectedly supporting her. This thought


    caused her face to flush. “Yes, there was a fight.
