Gregory's mother was the same parent driving the BMW that morning. Inside the office, seeing the bruise on her son's face, her heart ached for him.
"Baby, stop crying. Mommy's here."
"Mommy, it was him! It was Caleb! He hit me, and it hurts so much!"
Seeing her son beaten up, his face bruised in multiple spots, Mrs. Hall pointed at Caleb and began to scream abusively.
"Was it you, you little brat, who hurt my son? If you don't get on your knees and apologize to him right now, this isn't over!"
The moment Quinn walked in and saw this, she rushed over and shielded her son.
"Mrs. Hall, we don't even know the whole story yet. Why are you yelling at a child?"
She crouched down and noticed a few bruises on her own son's face. Her eyes filled with worry and heartache.
"Caleb, does it hurt? Tell Mommy..."
Caleb shook his head. He was a brave boy, not like Gregory, who cried over every little scratch.
"Mommy, Gregory pushed me first. My brother told him to apologize, but he refused and charged at him instead. My brother had to fight back."
Luna's eyes were red, her soft voice trembling with sheer grievance. The ferocious way Gregory's mother had been yelling earlier was still etched in her mind.
Sensing how deeply wronged her two precious children felt, Quinn pulled them into a hug before turning to face the furious Mrs. Hall.
Her tone was biting. "Did you hear that, Mrs. Hall? Your child attacked first. My child was simply acting in self-defense!"
"Furthermore, my child's injuries are worse than yours, yet you want to force my son to apologize? What kind of twisted logic is that?"
Ms. Sullivan stood by, wanting to intervene, but she was afraid of provoking either parent. She didn't know how to mediate the situation.
Mrs. Hall was a woman in her thirties, dressed very fashionably. Even when picking up her child, she never forgot to style herself.
She wasn't as tall as Quinn, but she was noticeably heavier.
Hands on her hips, her eyebrows raised in fury, she glared at Quinn. "Who the hell do you think you are? How did my son get those injuries? Your son hit him! If you don't give me a satisfactory explanation today, don't even think about stepping foot in this school tomorrow."

Lol.. this guy is a complete fool , I dont know how he is the top predator , he rather believes Jade than Doctor's diagnosis 🙄 he is rich , if he didn't believe that particular doc ,he cud take her to another doctor. N he says he thinks of her as sis I mean no brother is this obsessed with his sis ,he does have a bio sis, he doesnt behave with her like that....
Whats wrong with grandparents in this kind of stories? They force the wife to stay even if she is miserable bcos they believe their grandson loves her but never tell how a married guy shud behave just enabling his behavior. 😏...
He can be friends with Jade with no boundaries but she cant be friends with Ethan? Such hypocrisy. So he does know the way he is being with Jade is wrong and still does it...
This guy brought the kid against her mom's wishes and he doesn't even respect her n when her kids are hurt she can't even fight? What gives him the right? He is just plain disgusting...
Why does he have authority over other kids? Why wud he send his assistant to bring the kids over against their mom's wishes? This guy is just stupid ,it's like a mad n stupid dog sitting on money n just doing whatever he feels like without an ounce of respect for others....
You are just a snob and holier than thou person....
His aristocratic upbringing stopped him from losing composure? Seriously , his aristocratic upbringing is not that great , he got no morals , only using underhanded tactics on a helpless individual . He got money ,so it's a viable sophistry when his heart is rotten. When the winter's family is in the wrong ,why is he scared of them attacking his wife and the winter's family doesn't even give him a shot n he still acts like a dog for them. Please don't make him the endgame for her....
It's for her own good . He is afraid of Arthur Quinn ? I mean what use is he as a husband when he's afraid of someone will ruin his wife's career n already had done once and he still doesn't have the guts to stand up for her? He can only show his power n abuse on innocent ones with no background like his wife? How disgusting is he? N he thinks he's above everyone and even when he looks down upon someone bcos she is a maid's daughter , when he is this spineless?...
Why only one episode uploading for the last 2 days?...
I would have accepted the jerk husband ending up with the heroine if he’s only powerful, intelligent but he’s so powerless and so stupid....
