CHAPTER 510 THEO GOT BULLIED

"I don't know, the kindergarten didn't disclose that. Anna's teacher said that the child came from a foreign country with his parents," Joe replied.

This kindergarten was an upper-class kindergarten, and all the children were from respectable families so it was completely normal that the kindergarten would not disclose the parents’ identity so easily.

Henry pondered. "Then can you ask the teacher to contact the child's parents and inform them? If they are willing, I'll bring Anna to meet them and apologize in person." This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

"Okay," Joe responded.

After he hung up, Joe immediately went to the kindergarten teacher to pass Henry's message along.

The teacher nodded after listening. She then found the phone number Yvonne had left and made a call.

Yvonne was processing the documents Lisa had sent her at the hotel. When she heard the phone ring, she turned her head around and glanced at it.

When she saw that the call was from Theo’s teacher, she thought that something had happened to Theo. She quickly dropped the pen in her hand and grabbed the phone before putting it to her ear.

"Hello, is this Theo's mother?" the teacher asked

gently.

Yvonne anxiously replied, "Yes. Why did you call? Is there something wrong with Theo?"

The teacher glanced at Joe and looked apologetic. "No, no, Theo is fine. But..."

Joe noticed the teacher's embarrassment as she was scared that the child's parents would get angry. Joe sighed and waved, "Just be honest."

Anyway, if she didn't say it now, the child’s parents would find out sooner or later.

If the parents found out late, they might get even angrier.

So why not just be upfront now?

The teacher settled down after hearing Joe’s encouragement. She mustered the courage to speak u p again, "So, Theo was ostracised by a little girl in his class. That little girl has a somewhat strong personality, and she grew up spoiled since she was a child. She couldn’t accept it when Theo ignored her. She then got the other children to discriminate against Theo and called him..."

"Called him what?" Yvonne narrowed her eyes, and her voice was as cold as ice. She clenched her hand that was holding the phone tighter, almost crushing it.

The teacher noticed the change in her attitude and she was fuming. She smiled bitterly, bit the bullet, and continued, "They called Theo a mute and freak!"

Boom!

Yvonne flipped over the coffee cup on the table. Her tiny face was filled with anger.

"Mute? Freak?" She gritted her teeth and repeated. Her eyes reddened. "Was this how Theo was treated in school?"

She thought that Theo might not be able to make friends in kindergarten because of his autism and his lack of speech, and other children might not play with him.

But she never thought that Theo would get ostracised by the other children and be given such a terrible nickname!

"Theo's mom, please calm down." The teacher knew how angry the woman was, so she hurriedly said that t o calm her down.

However, all Yvonne thought about was how Theo was bullied, and she could not calm down at all.

Apart from the Smith family, Theo was the only other person she cared about and loved the most in this world.

She treated Theo like he was the only thing that mattered. She had never beaten or scolded Theo. She valued Theo more than anybody else, and if she could, she would give Theo everything in this world.

But this child that she carefully cared for and loved was bullied, and she did not even know about it. How could she possibly be calm!

"How long has it been since the bullying and namecalling started?" Yvonne asked coldly.

The teacher shivered when she heard the coldness in her voice. She quickly replied, "Um... it has been several days!"

"Several days?" Yvonne's pupils shrank and it was as i f something in her mind snapped. She said in a low voice, "Theo has been bullied for several days and what were you doing as a teacher? Why didn't you tell me in the first place? And why didn't you stop those kids?"

"Theo’s mom, it’s not what you think. I stopped them right away when I found out, but I didn't think much about it at the time. I thought they were just being children. Besides, I didn’t hear those children calling Theo names after that, so..."

"So you think it's over and you don’t need to tell me, is that right?" Yvonne interrupted her with a sneer.

The teacher lowered her head. She was so ashamed that she could not answer.

Yvonne closed her eyes. "What's the name of the little girl who got the other kids to ostracise Theo? Who are her parents?"

"Her name is Anna Lancaster, the daughter of the Lancaster Group's chairman. The reason why I called you was because Mr. Lancaster found out that Anna bullied Theo at school, so he wanted Anna to

apologize to Theo personally..."

It was his daughter!

Yvonne's eyes made her look like she was going to murder someone. The anger she tried so hard to hold i n rose up again at this moment, and she was even angrier than before.

Why?

Why did it turn out like that!

Because of the Lancasters, she was kidnapped by their enemy and was almost murdered by Jacqueline. Why should her son suffer because of the Lancaster family too?

Were they destined to never escape the catastrophe of the Lancaster family?

No, she doesn't believe it nor did she admit her fate!

She would never let go of anybody who bullied her son. Never!

Yvonne's eyes turned red as she thought about this. Her delicate face was filled with chilling determination. "Was it Henry Lancaster, Chairman of the Lancaster Group?"

"Yes." The teacher looked at Joe again and nodded in response. "Now Mr. Lancaster's assistant, Mr. Woods, i s here. He is here on behalf of Mr. Lancaster. He wanted to meet you and talk about Anna's apology."

Yvonne sneered, "Teacher, you haven't told them

anything about me, right?" "No, since you've explained it from the beginning, our kindergarten certainly will not disclose your information or Theo’s. I didn’t let Mr. Woods see Theo either," the teacher replied.

Yvonne was slightly satisfied.

After she returned to Canada, she went to the kindergarten, hoping that the kindergarten would not reveal her identity to the public. If someone looked for Theo, they would not let anybody see him either.

This was because Theo looked too much like Henry, and this kindergarten was an upper-class kindergarten. Most of the children there were from wealthy families in Vancouver.

If parents who came to pick up their child accidentally saw Theo and tried to guess Theo's relationship with Henry, they might tell Henry of Theo's existence. If that happened, it would be bad. Therefore, she had already instructed the kindergarten.

Fortunately, the kindergarten did a good job and listened to her, so Joe could not see Theo.

Without seeing Theo, Joe wouldn't be surprised by Theo's similarity with Henry, nor would he doubt Theo's identity.

But there was one thing that Yvonne couldn't figure out. Why was Jacqueline's daughter in the same kindergarten too?

She did ask Shane before this. He told her that Jacqueline's daughter was in another private kindergarten, so that was why she felt relieved to send Theo to this kindergarten so that they could avoid the Lancaster family.

However, now she found out that Jacqueline's daughter was in the same kindergarten and class as Theo. What exactly happened?

Yvonne pursed her lips as she could not understand the reason. She ignored it for the time being and said coldly, "You just said that Henry's assistant wanted to see me and discuss Anna's apology, right?"

"Yes!" The teacher nodded hurriedly, "Theo’s mom, do you want to see them?"

Yvonne smiled coldly, "No. Please tell him that I don't accept their apology. Not everything can be solved with just an apology. Since they’ve done something wrong, they have to pay the price!"
