The Triplets My Ex Never Knew About novel Chapter 273

Chapter 273: Chapter 273: Aunt York, Apologize

Thea York subconsciously wanted to stop him.

Christian had already stepped forward and warmly taken Scott York’s arm.

He had a child’s innocence on his face, but a flash of cunning glinted in his eyes.

"What do you mean, ’stealing a room’? I invited Scott to come play in my room. Aunt York, are you mistaken?"

At this, all the other parents turned to look at Thea York.

Thea York’s expression stiffened. She forced an awkward laugh. "What?"

Christian tilted his head. "Scott and I are classmates, so I invited him to play in my room. Zachery and Mia heard me just now, too. So why did Aunt York say Scott was trying to steal my room?"

Thea York never imagined that her usual trick would fail today.

Usually, whenever she blamed Scott York, someone would feel sorry for her. ’What a tragedy. The original wife’s grandson, and now Thea York has to take care of him.’

Seeing the other parents’ expressions grow stranger and stranger, Thea York immediately took a deep breath. "Oh, so that’s how it is. Christian, I didn’t realize you and Scott were friends."

"We are." Christian looked calmly at Thea York. "That’s why I find it strange. His friend here didn’t misunderstand, but his own relative, Aunt York, ignored the truth and immediately started blaming Scott."

"Logically, shouldn’t you be happy to see us standing together, happy that Scott made a new friend? Why did you start scolding Scott without even asking what happened?"

"You’re Scott’s aunt. How can you have so little faith in him?"

The corner of Thea York’s eye twitched.

"I’m sorry, it’s because Scott has previously..."

Christian stared at her coldly. "Is that so? Now that you know you were wrong, Aunt York, aren’t you going to apologize?"

Thea York’s face flushed red, then went pale.

’Apologize to that idiot Scott?!’

One of the parents frowned slightly. "Miss York, you misunderstood the child. What’s so hard about saying you’re sorry?"

"From what I’ve seen, Scott York doesn’t seem as terrible as you described, Miss York... He’s been quiet for the entire two-hour trip, hasn’t he?"

"That’s right. He hasn’t been loud or disruptive, and he doesn’t seem to be deliberately bullying his classmates either."

"The past is the past. Even if Scott York bullied classmates before, today, you’re the one who misunderstood, Miss York."

Christian shielded Scott York behind him and said flatly, "Aunt York, apologize."

Thea York clenched her fists tightly. In her heart, she added another mark against Scott York, but her face showed nothing but helplessness.

"I’m sorry, Scott. Your aunt was mistaken. It’s all my fault..."

Scott York gave Thea York a strange look before Christian pulled him aside with a smile.

"Scott must be very upset after being wrongly accused like that. He can have lunch with us today. You wouldn’t mind, would you, Aunt York?"

Thea York gritted her teeth and forced a stiff smile. "Of course not."

Without even glancing at Thea York, Christian led Scott York directly into his room.

Estelle Lockwood sensed something was off. She gently stroked Mia’s head and asked in a low voice, "Does Scott York usually bully you guys?"

Before Mia could speak, Zachery had already clenched his fists. "He does!"

Estelle Lockwood remembered how Scott York had charged straight at Mia at the kindergarten entrance two hours ago.

He had looked like a malicious, fierce, and savage brat.

But his eyes had been filled with confusion and panic.
