So, Lauren followed them to the office.
They must have had specifically looked for an empty office. When they entered, Franklin was already inside.
The moment she saw Franklin, Lauren immediately pounced on him.
“Franklin!”
Franklin caressed Lauren’s head and asked, “Why are you here too?”
“I saw that...Bryce is facing some problem, so I followed him here.”
Franklin nodded, then he picked up Lauren to sit on the sofa next to him.
Seth pointed to the chair. “Bryce, don’t just stand there. Come and sit down. Let’s talk about this internally.”
“What exactly happened, Mr. Hill?” Franklin asked the teacher politely. “Bryce is my younger brother. I know him best. He never fights, let alone bullies his classmates.”
Seth Hill was a 40-year-old male teacher, he wore a pair of black glasses, which gave him a naive and innocent look.
He looked at Franklin and said, “Mr. Torres, I have taken care of Bryce for two years. I know he won’t cause trouble for no reason, but the child who was beaten up has already brought his parents here to complain, so we have no choice but to invite you here to resolve this matter.”
“Is it him?! Is it him who injured my child?!”
Suddenly, there was a fierce knock on the door.
Because the office door was partly made of transparent glass, one could see inside from the outside.
Seth quickly got up to open the door. A woman and a man were standing at the door angrily. Behind them was a relatively thin boy. The boy looked bruised and swollen. His right hand seemed to have a fracture and was in a cast. He looked very disheveled.
“Please, don’t be so agitated. Our school is also investigating this matter.”
“What investigation? My son said that it was that person who hit him. How could there be a mistake?! Why would he lie for no reason?!”
The middle-aged woman pointed at Bryce as she cursed.
Seth had no choice but to invite them into the office.
Bryce looked up at Jaxxon, but he had no impression of this person.
Jaxxon seemed to be very afraid of Bryce. Bryce only took a glance at him before Jaxxon retreated a few steps and leaned against the corner of the wall as if he was afraid that Bryce would beat him up again.
When the couple saw their son’s reaction, they were even more certain that Bryce was the one who bullied their son.
“Jaxxon, don’t be afraid. We are here, and we certainly won’t let you get hurt!”
The woman had a high-pitched voice, and even Lauren found it ear-piercing.
Seth could only comfort both sides until everyone calmed down.
They then moved to a larger reception room. Franklin and Jaxxon’s parents sat opposite each other, while Seth sat in the middle.
“Bryce, Jaxxon from Grade 12 Class 3 said that you stopped him when he went to the cafeteria at noon. You mocked him and beat him up. Is that true?”
Bryce shook his head. “No! I don’t know this Jaxxon at all and I don’t remember hitting anyone. After I finished eating, I...”
Bryce patted his head. He suddenly could not remember where he had gone after class.
It was the last class. He had originally planned to wait for Lauren to have lunch with her at noon, but why didn’t he wait? Where had he gone during that period?
Jaxxon, who was curled up in the corner, said, “It’s him! I didn’t know him before, but after school today, I was going to find a quieter place to eat, but he suddenly grabbed my collar and started laughing at me!”
Bryce listened to Jaxxon’s nonsense and almost laughed out of anger.
He looked up at Jaxxon. “I laughed at you? What was I laughing at? I don’t know you at all.”
Jaxxon seemed a little embarrassed at the mention of this, and his face turned red.
“You...you said that I came from the countryside, and I am poor and that I didn’t deserve to study here. Then you punched and kicked me, and you even broke my arm!”
Bryce felt that he had been accused wrongly. Jaxxon was from the countryside? ! How would he know such a thing?!
The middle-aged woman sitting on the sofa listened to her son’s grievance, she could not help but say, “Our family may be poor, but so what? Our Jaxxon is well-behaved and has good grades.. Why should we be discriminated This school has never encountered such a situation before. You must deal with it properly, or else we will go to the Education Bureau!”
