Chapter 372
As soon as Keira said those words, Christinaâs voice spiked into a shrill scream, interrupting Keira. âKeera, what are you doing?! No matter what, children are innocent!!â
âŠ.
Upon hearing these words, Keira narrowed her eyes.
Christina immediately rushed to Bobbyâs side.
Bobby then wrapped his arms around her waist. âThey wouldnât let me eat or tear up pictures⊠They made me stand there. Mommy, beat her up for me!â
Christina immediately glared at Keira with venomous eyes. âKeera, Iâm going to report you for child abuse!â
Seeing her overreact like this, Keira hesitated for a moment, then scoffed. âWhen Amy and Brandon were slandered before, why didnât you show such a strong sense of justice? As expected, one doesnât feel the pain until theyâre hit with the stick themselves!â
âYouâŠâ
Christinaâs eyes had tears in them. âYou viperous witch!â
Keira shrugged. âSay whatever you want, but unlike you, I have a bottom line. I called you over to suggest that you take your son to the hospital for a check-up.â
At these words, Christinaâs eyes widened even further. âWhat have you done to my son?â
She immediately began checking Bobby, starting from the head. âSon, where does it hurt? Did the teacher hit you?â
Bobby, feeling uncomfortable being turned this way and that, squirmed and yelled, âNoâŠâ
âReally? Are they not letting you talk?!â Christina glared at the principal. âDid you use some kind of evil trick on Bobby? I know you people can abuse children and then brainwash them!â
She was truly frantic.
Upon hearing this, the principal sneered. âDonât worry. Iâm not as cruel as you!â
Christina was taken aback.
Keira then said, âThereâs something not right with him. I suspect he might have an issue with his brain. You should take him to the hospital promptly to check it out!â
When Christina heard this, she burst into an angry laugh. âI think itâs your brain that has a problem! Keera, if you want revenge, just say it straight. Thereâs no need to beat around the bush! I lost the competition, and I accept the result. Itâs not like I canât handle defeat. Iâll just send my son abroad!
âIf you want to expel him, at least come up with a better excuse. Your reason is lame and laughable! Itâs just a lousy kindergarten, right? If you donât want us here, weâll leave!â
Christina said this, then grabbed Bobbyâs hand. âSon, letâs go!â
Bobby followed behind her.
Seeing this, Keira took a couple of steps forward and said gently, âChristina, Iâm not some saint or a blindly nice person. Itâs just that your son is only five years old, and I couldnât bear to see him have an episode, which is why I made that suggestion. Youâd better take him to the hospital. I suspect he has a tumor in his brain, which is why he canât control his appetite and has a violent temperamentâŠâ
âItâs you who have a violent temperament! My son is chubby and eats a lot because he digests well! Look at how sturdy he is! Not like your Amy, who looks like a thin rat. Iâve heard it all before. Sheâs abused by your mother-in-law, right? You canât even take care of your own child, yet you have the time to point fingers at mine!â
Christina was completely ungrateful and thought that Keira was mocking her, so she went on. âNow that youâve become the director, you think youâre so great. I wonât let my son be mistreated here!â
Keira squinted her eyes, feeling that Christina really didnât know what was good for her.
But when she looked at Bobby, she felt a human life was at stake, so she added, âYou donât have to believe me, but if he starts throwing up, you must take it seriouslyâŠâ
Christina sneered. âThrowing up? My son can never get enough food. How could he possibly throw up? Let me tell you, I wonât let you get away with expelling my son that easily!â
She suddenly stepped forward, closing in on Keira. âDo you think youâre so great just because you are my third uncleâs daughter? Let me tell you. He never intended to acknowledge you as his daughter because of your tarnished reputation! This job here is probably just to compensate you! You just stay here and play your little kindergarten director role; I donât care for it! Take it!â
She stood up and took a step back. âAs for me, Iâll still be the pampered adopted daughter of the Olsen family and a hundred times better than you!â
Having said that, she turned around, held her sonâs hand, and left.
Keira watched them leave but said nothing more.
The principal frowned. âDirector South, are we really going to let them go?â
Keira scoffed. âI just said Iâm no saint. Iâve already been more than kind and righteous to warn her after how she treated Amy. Believe it or not, thatâs up to her!â
The principal sighed. âAlright then.â
âŠ
Christina brought Bobby out of the school, growing angrier the more she thought about it.
She drove straight home with the child.
As soon as they reached the front door, they were met by her mother-in-law and husband. On seeing Bobby, the mother-in-law immediately exclaimed in surprise, âWhy are you bringing him home at this hour?â
Christina was about to say something when Bobby started crying. âThere are bad teachers at school who bully me!â
This made his grandmother anxious, âWhat happened? Christina, arenât you the director? How can Bobby be bullied?â
When Christina heard this, her eyes flickered. She frowned and let out a cold laugh. âI donât know what tricks Keira has used, but she has seduced my third uncle. He appointed her as the school director, and now sheâs expelled Bobby to get back at me!â
Her mother-in-lawâs face darkened immediately. âHow could they do this? After all, heâs your son! I wonât stand for this! Iâm going to confront them! We canât just swallow this injustice silently! What reason did they give for expelling my grandson?â
Christina, finding what Keira told her ridiculous, said, âShe actually said Bobby has a tumor in his brain and told me to take him to the hospital. Mom, isnât that laughable?!â
Her mother-in-law snorted coldly. âThis is just an insult to us! If thereâs a problem, shouldnât they take it out on the adults instead of the child? Christina, letâs go to your house right now and clear things up with your third uncle! It doesnât matter who this Keira is to him, even if she were his biological daughter, she canât be so unreasonable!!â
Christinaâs husband, Richard, agreed. âYes, the Murphy family might not be among the five powerful families, but weâre not to be trampled on like this! Letâs go! Take our son to confront them!â
They took their bodyguards and were about to set out when suddenly, Bobby stopped crying, his face turning uneasyâŠ
Christina immediately asked, âSon, whatâs wrong?â
No sooner had the words left her mouth than Bobby suddenly began to vomit violently!!
