The Guardian's Sword

Chapter 51 “My son is so precious that no one has ever laid even a finger on him since he was born.

So, how dare a cripple’s daughter hit him? “I’ve gotta let all of you know that no one can even touch a

single hair on my son’s

body!”

Mr. Lowe huffed coldly, picked up his cup of tea, and took a sip.

Haughty disdain filled the faces of the little boy and his mother.

The few teachers that were in the office looked at how arrogant this family of three is and frowned.

They were displeased with the aggressive, unforgiving attitude displayed by them.

However, what could they dare say if Principal Leed herself was so polite and courteous to Mr. Lowe?

“No room for discussion?”

Sean Lennon looked at Mr. Lowe and spoke faintly. “Who are you to have any discussion with me?” Mr.

Lowe glanced at Sean’s wheelchair and snickered arrogantly, aggressively, unforgivingly.

“Okay.”

Sean nodded slightly. “Let’s… not discuss it then.” As soon as he finished speaking, he pulled Candy

gently before him.

“Candy, tell me. You and this little boy. Who started it?”

His tone was gentle and kind, effectively soothing the fear and anxiety in Candy.

Candy lowered her head, her face colored with inferiority as she said weakly, “He wanted my toy, I

didn’t give it to him, so he bit me. When I pushed him away, I accidentally scratched his face…”

Leah’s heart was throbbing with pain as she looked at the bite mark on her daughter’s

arin.

“Hah! It’s your fault since you refuse to pass the toy to my baby boy!

“At our home, if our boy wants the moon, we would definitely give him the stars as well!

“Just a stupid toy. Why won’t you give it to him?” That woman was unreasonable and aggressive.

“Yeah! I’ll bite you again if you don’t give me the toy next time.” That little boy’s eyes were filled with

malice as he threatened Candy.

Candy heard him and got increasingly afraid. She subconsciously took a few steps back and cowered.

“Don’t worry, I’m here.” Sean reached out and caressed Candy’s liead.

“Remember, you can be however you want at home,

“But if you’re out and about, no one is obliged to pamper you.”

Sean glanced at that woman and before she could say anything, he looked at Principal Leed and said,

“Principal Leed, everything is as clear as day now.

“He started it. How should we move on about the fact that he hurt Candy?”

Principal Leed was momentarily stunned as she paused. Then, she said with feigned righteousness.

“It’s his fault that he bit your child.

“However, your child retaliated. So, that’s her fault.”

Whatever Principal Leed said seemed to make so much sense that no one could find any fault with it.

The few teachers that were present were also nodding their heads in agreement. The way they taught

the kids was, ‘if someone hits you, you should tell the teacher, and not settle it amongst yourselves.’

Initially, the intention of the kindergarten teachers was good. However, it had become an excuse for

Principal Leed to suck up to Mr. Lowe.

Leah gritted her teeth and shook her head helplessly.

Candy looked at that family of three, and then at how cold Principal Leed’s face was and she felt the

injustice against her. Brimming tears were threatening to fall from her eyes. If this thing was not settled

properly, it would definitely leave an indelible trauma in Candy’s heart.

“You bring Candy out.

“I’ll have a chat with them.”

Sean looked at Candy’s mother and spoke softly.

“…Okay.”

Leah was temporarily stunned. When she came back to her senses, she nodded and brought Candy

out.

“Uncle Sean… I don’t wanna say sorry to him…”

Candy was still tugging onto Sean’s shirt, her face was filled with sadness.

“Okay, Uncle Sean understands.”

Sean smiled as he nodded. He watched them leave.

The moment the office door closes, the smile on Sean’s face was instantly gone.

Instead, it was replaced with icy coldness. “Principal Leed, what did you say just now? I didn’t hear you

clearly.

“Please, say it once more.”

Sean turned his wheelchair as he approached Principal Leed. His tone was casual as he asked.

“I said…” Principal Leed paused, then continued with a huff. “It’s his fault that he bit Candy, but for

Candy to retaliate, that’s her fault.”

Sean nodded. Abruptly, he reached out his hand, whirled it around, and threw a slap.

“Smack!”

A resounding slap, right smack on Principal Leed’s face.

Principal Leed stumbled backward as she cradled her face. A clear handprint was etched on her face.

Silence filled the room. Pin-drop silence.

Mr. Lowe and his family, and the few teachers that were present stared with bulging eyes of disbelief at

the scene that had unfolded.

Principal Leed was slapped out of her senses, and it took her a while to snap out of it.

When she finally did, her eyes were fuming with flames as she pounced towards Sean with rage. “How

dare you slap me? I’ll kill you!” Principal Leed was so mad her fingers were clawing at Sean.

“Smack!”

Sean was unfazed as he slapped another resounding slap on Principal Leed’s face once again.

This time, Principal Leed fell back and knocked onto the table painfully from the slap.

Blood began to trickle down from the corner of her mouth. “I hit you, that’s my fault.

“However, why did you retaliate?” Sean cocked his eyebrows slightly, his tone was indignant.
