Never Late, Never Away Chapter 1920

The man ignored his wife and walked up to the homeroom teacher.

“Ms. Lee, why don’t you tell us the details?”

“Well, your son was indeed bad-mouthing Lucius’ mother in front of the other students. Lucius lost his cool and pushed him lightly. They didn’t get into a fight…”

The crying boy’s mother stared daggers at the homeroom teacher. She badly wanted to give the educator a tight slap.

“Ms. Lee, you mustn’t lie as an educator!” the woman threatened.

Larry immediately walked up to the homeroom teacher and patted her shoulders lightly to calm her nerves.

It was easy to tell who was having the upper hand here. She gave Larry a smile.

“So that’s what happened. Mr. Norton, I apologize on behalf of my son.” The man bowed once more in apology.

His wife was stunned.

Who the hell is this man? Why is my husband sucking up to him? She glared at Larry fiercely.

Larry trailed on, “But your wife wants us to compensate her for mental distress, medical fees, and…”

“No, no, no, you should be the one to receive compensation from us.” The man went flush in the face.

Larry smiled with satisfaction and nodded. “If you insist.”

After that, the two children apologized to one another and returned to class.

However, Joan was displeased with the outcome. It was uneventful inside the car en route. Larry looked at her curiously.

“Joan?” he called out tentatively.

She ignored him as she stared out of the window.

The car suddenly stopped by the roadside.

Larry couldn’t stand the awkward atmosphere anymore. “Joan, what happened? Talk to me!”

The woman turned to look at him with a steely glint in her eyes.

Does he really not realize what he has done?

She kept quiet.

Larry slowly crept up to Joan and leaned in toward her. They were so close they could hear each other’s heartbeats, making Joan stunned by their proximity.
