Chapter 50
Catherine panted and asked, “What happened to Lincoln?” Anderson didn’t answer her question and simply headed towards the teacher’s office.
“Hey, your child beat up my child. I will definitely let him pay the price.” Just as Catherine arrived at the door of the teacher’s office, she heard the roar from inside.
As she was so anxious, she pushed open the door without knocking at it and walked in. “Who are you?”
“lm Sophia and Lincoln’s mother.” As soon as Catherine entered the office, she found Lincoln standing in front of the office desk holding Sophia’s hand and there was a fat middle-aged man by his side.
When hearing Catherine’s voice, Sophia let go of Lincoln’s hand and hugged Catherine’s leg, calling her name in a husky voice, “Mummy.”
Catherine squatted down, ‘It’s fine honey. Don’t be afraid. Mummy is here.”
Catherine anxiously checked whether there was any wound on Sophia’s body and then squat down again to have a check on Lincoln. Seeing that there was no wound on his body except a few scratches, she was relieved a little.
When seeing this scene, the fat man sat in a sharp tone, “Are you the mother of these two little bastards?”
Hearing the address, Catherine furrowed her brows subconsciously and looked up coldly at the man. She then turned around to gaze at the woman who was sitting behind the office desk, “Teacher, what happened?”
“If it was Lincoln’s fault, naturally we’ll bear the responsibility. But if it’s not his fault, I will not allow Lincoln to suffer grievance.” Lincoln had always been a reasonable boy and Catherine didn’t believe that he
would fight against others for no reasons.
The middle-aged man pulled out a child that was much taller and fatter than Lincoln from behind and roared, “You child hit my child and now he’s bleeding. And you’re thinking of avoiding responsibility!”
Hannah Martinez, the class teacher, felt it unbearable and persuaded him, “Mr. Elliott, please be rational and keep your voice down. Other teachers in the office still need to work.”
“I can’t be rational. My child just said that he doesn’t have a mother. Is it necessary for him to beat up my child?”
The middle-aged man said confidently, “My wife is a director of the Clark Group. If you can’t give me a satisfying solution, I won’t let go of this matter easily.”
Gazing at the middle-aged man who didn’t give a shit to her persuasion, Hannah smiled at Catherine helpless, “Here’s what happened. When Sophia was playing with her classmates during the break of last class, Robinson cursed her, saying that she doesn’t have a mother. Sophia argued with him and Robinson lost and pushed Sophia down onto the ground. Lincoln saw the scene and hit Robinson.”
“This was what had happened. Although it was Robinson who started the fighting, his wound was more serious. So I call you guys here to negotiate about how to solve this matter.”
Hannah rummaged through the drawer and then took out a sheet of invoice, “Robinson’s wounds have been treated. And this is the invoice of the medical expense.”
Catherine took the invoice and took a glance at it. She then turned around to look at the man who still looked angry, “Mr. Elliott, my child should be blamed for hitting your child. But the cause of the matter is because your child cooked up a rumor and hit Sophia. What about this? Let the children apologize to each other and I will compensate the medical expense to you. Is this okay?”
‘It’s only dozens of yuan. Are you trying to humiliate me?” The man pointed at Catherine arrogantly, “My wife is on the way to school. Do you know how much she will lose? She’s a C-level manager of the Clark Group!”
Catherine stole a glance at Anderson who was watching the show at a corner and said helplessly, “So, Mr. Elliott, how do you want to solve this matter?”
“The medical expense, I and my wife’s lost wages, my child’s mental damage compensation, I and my wife’s mental damage compensation. I’ll give you a discount and you just need to give me 500 thousand.” The man said in a justifying tone. Catherine was amused.
“What are you laughing at? If you don’t give me the compensation, I will arrange my child to be hospitalized now. Let’s see whose time is more precious. Antonio Elliot is my acquaintance and his hospital is not cheap.”
The man’s surname was also Elliot, so maybe he was really Antonio’s relative.
But he must not a immediate relative of the Elliot family because she could recognize every immediate relative of the Elliot family even if she was not acquainted with everyone.
“Mr. Elliott, you shouldn’t work in a company. You should bring your child together with you to blackmail or swindle others. You’ll definitely earn more than your wife’s wage in the Clark Group.”
Just as Catherine had finished her words, a woman in high heels stoke into the office and rushed over when seeing Robinson, “My honey, are you alright?”
Robinson replied with grievance, “Mummy, my head aches.”
The woman comforted him for a while and then stood up and gazed at Catherine with her brows knitted, “I thought my husband must have told you about our conditions. My time is precious so I hope we can
solve this matter as soon as possible. You should compensate for what you should. I don’t trust the doctors in the school and I must bring my child to the other hospital to have a check-up.”
Judging from her aura, the woman looked like a woman who had been in a high position for a long time. “Your husband said that I should compensate for you lost wages, mental damage compensations, etc. Urm… 500 thousand in total. Of course I can give you the money.”
Hearing that Catherine could afford the compensation, the man said impatiently, “If you want to compensate us, then hurry up. My child is precious and we must go to the hospital as soon as possible.”
Catherine chuckled, holding Sophia and Lincoln with each hand, “But it was your child who started the strife and I had to come here to solve this matter. So shouldn’t you compensate for my lost wage?”
The man was a bit stunned when hearing her words. He studied Catherine from top to tow and found that what she was wearing were clothes from some fast fashion brands. He then studied Sophia and Lincoln and found that although the two children were good-looking, the clothes they wore were of some infamous brands. He had heard that the two children had good performance in study, and therefore he guessed that they must have been specially recruited by Jiaye School.
The man said with distain, “What’s your monthly wage? I will compensate you.” “My wage is not high and you just need to give me several hundreds.” Catherine chuckled. Content © provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
The man felt that there was something wrong with Catherine’s reaction, but he had been dizzy with money and said resolutely, “Okay. I will be generous to you and you just need to transfer 490 thousand to my account.”
After finishing the words, he opened his QR code and handed his phone to Catherine.
“Don’t hurry. The children’s father is also present, but I’m not clear of his wage. Please ask him how much you should compensate him.” After finishing the words, Catherine pointed at Anderson who was standing at a corner.
The man looked towards Anderson and felt that he was familiar with him. Nevertheless, after pondering for a long while, he still failed to recall who he was. He studied Anderson’s business suit from top to down and failed to recognize its brand. He was emboldened and said, “I will also compensate you with 10 thousand. It’s not a low compensation. People like you can’t even earn 10 thousand per month. Except for a good appearance, you’re good for nothing.”
When hearing his taunted, Catherine felt a bit happy as the gloominess in her heart was relieved.
Anderson walked to Catherine’s side and said with a cold look, “I’m not clear of my yearly wage either. How about this? I will call my attorney here and he’ll tell you how much you should compensate me.”
The elite woman who was coaxing her child was stunned when hearing Anderson’s voice. When she looked up and saw Anderson, she fell down onto the ground in horror, her face ghastly.
