Fabian's sharp eyes and determined tone made the little boy's father feel a hint of chill, but when he remembered that it was his son who was beaten up, confidence surged within him once more.โYouโre so strange, pretty boy. Since youโre not the father of this little thing, what are you doing here? Why are you so righteous now that the little thing has beaten my son up?โThe man rolled up his sleeves, looking arrogant and domineering.โSay, Miss Charles, I spent so much money to send my son to school here, and is this how you take care of him? Now that my son was beaten by this little thing, you must expel her immediately. Otherwise, Iโll even report you!โโWhat did you say? Who are you calling a little thing? Say it again if you have the galls.โ Fabian's heart was already ignited by this man, but at this moment, his gaze was like a cold arrow. The man was instantly flustered.โMiss Charles, don't worry. I won't let you lose your job because of this. There should be surveillance c
Meanwhile, Fabian came to Lillian's side, reached out, and caressed her cute little head to comfort her.โDon't be afraid, Lily. Iโm here. Iโll never let anyone bully you.โWith Fabian by his side, Lillian would never be afraid.Although she was still a very young girl, she had never been afraid of such villains even when they bullied her.Even when she faced the she-devil Lana and was thrown into the pool, she never once begged Lana to spare her. It could be said that she had completely inherited Madeline's genes.Even in the face of criticism and accusations, she was silent because she could not speak. Even so, her eyes were bright and confident.Seeing this, Julie immediately went to mediate.โMr. Johnson, how could youโโโYes, I hit someone, but itโs because he deserves it.โ Fabianโs expression never changed. His sharp eyes fell on Julie's face as he asked, โDid you get the footage?โโYes, please go to the office to check,โ Julie said and glanced at the man who got up fr
โUmโฆโLooking at Fabian's sullen eyes, the man immediately admitted defeat.โYou punk, this is all your fault! Hurry up and apologize to her!โ the man scolded his son who was standing beside him and pushed his son in front of Lillian. โHurry up and apologize!โThe man was scared, let alone the manโs son.โI-I'm sorry, Lillian.โ The man's son apologized tremblingly, not having the courage to look directly at Lillian.Seeing this, the man immediately smiled flatteringly. โLook, my son has apologized. Are you satisfied?โFabian raised his eyes coldly. โDo you think this is enough? Do you think youโre not at fault at all?โโUmโฆโโParents are the best teachers for children. You, as his father, have an inescapable responsibility for how your son turned out.โโ...Yes, yes,โ the man answered repeatedly. He did not dare to talk back to Fabian at all. โYouโre right. I, as the father, have a great responsibility.โHe submissively looked at Fabian with a smiling face that looked even ugl
On the way back, Julie sent Fabian to the door of the kindergarten and thanked him.โThank you for speaking up for me just now, Mr. Johnson.โFabian did not take it to heart, but when he saw Julie expressing her gratitude, he spoke calmly.โIt's nothing. You donโt need to thank me, Miss Charles. I still need to trouble you to take care of Lily on weekdays. If anything happens to Lily, Iโll need you to tell me as soon as possible.โJulie nodded with a smile. โMr. Johnson, don't worry. Iโll pay more attention to Lily.โโThanks.โAfter Fabian thanked her, he was about to leave. However, when he turned around, he saw the man whom he punched just now angrily walking toward him with two policemen.The man quickened his pace when he saw that Fabian seemed to be leaving and pointed to Fabian before telling the police beside him.โOfficers, it's this pretty boy. This pretty boy was the one who hit me just now. Look at my face. It's swollen now! You must arrest him!โWhen Fabian saw thi
The police were pretty courteous.Fabian glanced at the man who was arrogant just now and nodded calmly.โAlright,โ he replied indifferently. He then turned his head to look at Julie, who appeared worried. โMiss Charles, go back to the classroom and please look after Lily. Thank you.โJulie was worried and wanted to say something, but she felt like she had no right to. Hence, she just nodded.โMr. Johnson, you can rest assured that Iโll take care of every student in the class.โFabian lightly pulled the corner of his lips into a smile. He did not say anything else. Then, he took the lead and walked forward.The two policemen followed behind Fabian, then they called the man along.โMr. Martinez, please follow us to the police station again to assist in the investigation.โThe man cowered as he glanced at Fabian's tall and lean figure. Suddenly, he wanted to back out of this.โW-Why donโt we just forget this?โ The man wanted to give up on pursuing the matter. He felt that he had
The police frowned suspiciously. โDid Fabian hit your son?โโI-Itโs even more serious than hitting my son,โ the man said without exaggeration.The two police officers looked at each other and felt that it was necessary to pay attention to this matter.After a while, the police officer who interrogated Fabian came out of the interrogation room with a solemn expression.The man named Mr. Martinez rushed over at once to ask about the situation.โOfficer, how did it go? Are you going to arrest Fabian and lock him up?โThe police officer looked at the man with a serious look in his eyes. โFabian readily admitted from the beginning that he hit you, and he didn't try to explain it, butโฆโThe man's heart twitched. โBut what?โโMr. Martinez, Fabian is going to sue you and your son now.โโ...What? He wants to counter-sue me and my son?โโThat's right.โ The policeman nodded affirmatively. โAnd he also summoned his lawyer whoโll be arriving soon.โโ...โโMr. Martinez, did your son bull
When Julie heard what Fabian said, she was surprised but did not show it. On the surface, she maintained her gentle and reserved demeanor. "Iโm free tonight, but would that be too much trouble?""No. As long as you feel okay with it, it's fine.""Alright then." Julie nodded and agreed. Deep down, she was already planning what gifts she would bring to Fabian's house.Then, it was evening and kindergarten was over.Fabian arrived at the kindergartenโs entrance right on time. Julie took Lillian by her hand and brought her to Fabian."Mr. Johnson, I have other business to attend to. Here, you can take Lily back first.""Okay, go ahead," Fabian did not say much. He just turned around and walked away with Lillian in his hand.Julie was at a loss as she looked at Fabian's back, but the work in front of her was fighting for her attention.She sent the children back to their parents in an orderly manner before she returned to the office to deal with other matters.By the time she was a
While they were driving, Fabian did not say a word, so Julie kept silent.When the car stopped, Julie silently sighed in relief as she had felt as if she were about to die from suffocation.When she got out of the car, Julie took the initiative and tried to carry Lillian out of the car, but Fabian was one step faster."Allow me." Fabian very decisively stepped forward and carefully carried Lillian into his arms as he led the way. "Please follow me, Miss Charles."Julie froze for a moment before catching up behind him.She looked around the place and noticed that although the house Fabian lived in was not a particularly luxurious or grand villa, it still seemed like an expensive place.Fabian's background popped up in Julieโs mind. His brother, Yorick, used to be a powerful big shot in F Country, but it was later found out that he was involved in illegal business dealings. Since Fabian was still unscathed and he was doing his own business now in F Country, it would mean that he ha
Gina, who was standing at the door, saw this scene and was about to walk in when she was stopped by her husband.โStop causing more trouble. Do you really want your son to be a bachelor for the rest of his life?โโWho said I'm going to make trouble? Iโm going to tell them that I agree to this marriage now, okay?โHer husband was startled. โYouโre agreeing to this?โGina was about to answer when out of the corners of her eyes, she suddenly caught a glimpse of the lights in the room. It was followed by cheers and applause from inside.Ava pulled herself out of Daniel's embrace. She was surprised to find Madeline and Jeremy, her parents, and even Tom and Maisie slowly approaching them with smiles on their faces.Ava stared blankly at Madeline. Then, she finally understood that they had all worked together to arrange this.Only she and Danielโs parents were kept in the dark.Daniel had never thought of leaving her at all. He just used a different approach to let her know that she w
Upon hearing this, Gina slowly stopped.She never thought that Ava still had some respect for her in her heart.This really surprised her.However, she soon heard Madeline stand up for Ava. โAva, you respect them, but have they ever respected you? Respect should be mutual.โโBut Danny will always be their son. If Dan and I insist on getting married, his parents wonโt be happy about it for the rest of their lives,โ Ava said with a helpless sigh. โI really don't want Dan to be caught in the middle of this matter.โโBut AvaโฆโโMaddie, don't persuade me. You should know best that when you truly love someone, you don't have to stay with them. As long as theyโre safe, healthy, and happy, that's enough, isn't it?โThere was a smile of relief on Ava's face as if she had already made a final decision in her heart.Madeline wanted to persuade her a little more, but nothing seemed appropriate at this moment.โAva, are you leaving, then? Are you going to stop looking for him now?โโI've
Daniel's parents, who were secretly observing Ava in the distance, gradually became more and more restless in the car.โHmph, how dare she say that she has a deep relationship with Dan? It's been so long and she still doesn't know where Dan has gone,โ Gina rolled her eyes and complained.Daniel's father glanced at Gina. โStop being so mean. Right now, the most important thing is to find Dan. Ava isnโt a bad person. In the beginning, you disliked her because she didnโt have parents, money, and power. Now, her parents are alive and well, her mother is extremely rich, and her father is a specialist doctor and professor. What else are you dissatisfied with? Do you really want your son to stay single his entire life?โGina was not happy when her husband was complaining about her. โDidn't you object at the beginning as well? I agreed with the relationship after that, but your father refused to agree to save his reputation. Why are you blaming me now?โโStop talking.โ Daniel's father in
After Old Master Graham read Daniel's message, he was so angry that his eyes were wide open.โHe just got out of the hospital and he ran away for a woman?โHe even said that if he can't marry that woman, he won't get married in the future?โOld Master Graham would never allow such a thing to happen.However, when he thought about it, he still felt a little nervous.If Daniel really did not get married because of this, would this not be the end of the Graham family?โI canโt let this happen.โAfter Ava ran out, she went to find Daniel in all the places she could think of. However, after spending the entire morning, she still could not find Daniel.She tried to call Daniel, and although the call was connected, it was always unanswered.As time passed, Ava felt very tired. She sat down on the chair by the roadside and watched the street where people came and went. Then, a deep sense of loss welled up from the bottom of her heart.โDan, have you decided to just give up?โAre we
โI'll be right back!โGina hurriedly ran back. Suddenly, she turned back and stopped Ava, who was about to follow her.โDonโt follow me! Youโre not welcomed at our house.โDespite Gina's warning, Ava could not stop herself from looking for Daniel.She did not know what was going on. How could Daniel suddenly be discharged by himself? He had obviously been in a coma on the hospital bed. He did not wake up this whole time.On the way there, Ava called Daniel, but Daniel did not answer.Ava did not know if Daniel had his phone with him, but in short, she could not get into contact with him.She wanted so badly to stand in front of Daniel right now, but there was traffic on the way.When Ava followed Gina into the door of Graham Manor, she heard Gina's sharp voice. โWhat? Danโs gone? Where did he go? D-Didn't he just wake up? What the hell is going on?โโLook at this and you'll know what's going on." Daniel's father sounded like he was reproaching someone, then he seemed to hand s
Ava stared at the empty ward for a while. Then, she returned to her senses and immediately went to look for Daniel.However, after looking around for a while, Ava could not find Daniel, which made her feel a little nervous.At this time, Gina also came in.She saw that the ward was empty, and Daniel, who was supposed to be lying on the hospital bed, had disappeared.โWhatโs going on? Whereโs Dan? Did the doctor take Dan away?โ Gina looked at Ava and asked with an unfriendly expression on her face.Ava was used to Gina's attitude, so she did not bother to argue with Gina. Instead, she replied, โI want to know as well.โโHow could you not know? You came before me.โโDan wasn't in the ward when I came,โ Ava said and turned around. โI'll go to the nurse's station and ask.โโWait.โGina grabbed Ava, her face was dark.โAva, let me tell you this. Dan has suffered a lot and gotten a lot of injuries because of you. Because of you, both Naya and her mother have been sent to prison. It
Since Julie was about to think that way, it showed that she was a reasonable person.โLily.โ Julie walked up to Lillian and squatted down, giving her a friendly blessing. โLily, I really like you. I hope you can be happy every day, and I hope youโll be able to speak soon.โLillian was a sensible child. She raised a sweet smile and nodded vigorously, indicating that she acknowledged Julie's blessing.Julie stood up and faced Fabian. Right now, there was a little more admiration in her eyes and a little less of her unwilling persistence before.If one liked someone, one did not necessarily have to stubbornly fight for it.Julie did not say anything and just smiled at Fabian.Fabian did not say anything more either. He bent over and picked Lillian up in his arms. Before turning around, he gave Julie a friendly smile.โMiss Charles, you can still come to me if you need help in the future. After all, I still owe you a favor.โJulie smiled and shook her head. โYou stopped owing me an
โI did,โ Fabian admitted frankly.Julie thought she would feel embarrassed because of this, but she did not know why she still felt very relaxed. Even so, she still felt a little embarrassed.In order to not make Julie feel embarrassed, Fabian smiled and said, โI wanted to help you get out of that situation, Miss Charles, but I didn't want to cross the line. I also didnโt expect someone to have taken a video and put it on the internet. Lily and I have caused you much trouble. I'm really sorry about that.โFabian paused as he spoke, then, he glanced at Lillian softly.โBut Miss Charles, rest assured, thereโll be no such trouble in the future.โJulie was stunned for a moment when she heard the words, and she inexplicably felt a strong sense of loss coming up from the bottom of her heart.She looked at Fabian suspiciously, and sure enough, the words she heard next made her feel remorseful.โMiss Charles, Iโve found a more suitable school for Lily, and itโs closer to where I work so
The scene of Mr. Martinez causing a ruckus and Fabian coming to the rescue with Lillian at the end was all recorded and posted on the internet.This person was still a little conscientious and had censored Lillian's appearance, but Fabian's figure and face were clearly visible in the video.Patty recognized the person in the video as Fabian at a glance.After seeing the comments below, Patty was even more anxious.โJulie, how could you fall in love with a single father?โJulie frowned. โYes, I won't deny it. I do have a crush on Mr. Johnson.โโWhat?โโTsk tskโฆ Julie, do you really like this single father?โ The look in Mrs. Gill's eyes was very subtle. โSomeone dug up all his information, and it turns out that this man is Yorick's younger brother. Back then, Yorick stirred up all kinds of troubles and did whatever he wanted in F Country. His sister, Lana, was also notorious in our circle.โโWhat? He's Yorick and Lana's younger brother?โ Patty was even more nervous, for fear that
