Triple Blessings: Mr. Fu’s Passionate Pursuit

Chapter 670: Chapter 666: It’s Okay to Press People with Power, I’ll Cover for You

Richelle Dunn glared at him, “Dare to say that again, huh?”

Roy Lewis fell silent, only speaking again when they were back in the bedroom and she was bent over preparing for the treatment.

“Richelle, you’ve worked really hard these days!”

Richelle responded with a grunt, “Yeah, it has been tough. So, once you can show your face outside, I’m taking the three kids out for fun.”

Roy said with a tinge of surprise, “You guys are going out without me?”

Richelle chuckled at his pitiful tone.

“That’s why I wonder why you’re being so polite. As a family, shouldn’t we bear the burdens and enjoy the happy moments together?”

It was then that Roy realized that Richelle’s little act was designed to dispel his unnecessary guilt and unease.

Whether it was due to Richelle’s comfort or not, Roy’s headache that had persisted for two days seemed to have eased significantly.

And after Richelle administered the acupuncture treatment, his headache symptoms lightened even more.

Roy breathed a sigh of relief as if a heavy burden had been lifted.

Richelle looked at him curiously, “What’s going on? You seem like you’ve had a sudden epiphany.”

Roy was too embarrassed to admit that when his headache started yesterday, he thought it was a postoperative side effect.

The fact proved that one should always discuss any discomfort with a doctor.

Never conceal illness nor reject medical advice.

Since the acupuncture was only for a localized point, it was a simple process requiring just a few needles. ƒree𝑤ebnσvel.com

After finishing the treatment, Richelle sat cross-legged beside him, scrolling through her phone.

These needles didn’t seem to have any sleep-inducing properties; in fact, Roy felt even more awake than before.

He rested his hand on Richelle’s leg and asked her.

“Are you really planning to expose the whole story to the school tomorrow? Aren’t you afraid of the rumors?”

Richelle shrugged, “Rumors are just that, so there’s no need to fear them. I have a clear conscience, and I believe the parents will judge right from wrong and teach their children to discern the truth. This incident of mine can serve as a case to guide children when dealing with gossip and slander – don’t be afraid, stand up bravely and clear your name. The more you shrink back, the more the rumors will chase you.”

Roy felt sorry for her, but he also knew she rarely changed her mind once she made a decision.

“Alright, you be in charge of this matter, and if necessary, use your authority to pressure others. I’ve got your back no matter how big the problem is.”

“Tsk, Mr. Lewis, this isn’t the way to go. You’re going to spoil your child by indulging them like this.”

After teasing, Richelle laughed and asked him, “Didn’t I overpower Mrs. Kirby when I slapped her twice?”

Roy had always been very protective.

“That was just self-defense, not using authority to suppress others.”

Richelle laughed.

…

Early the next day, Richelle arrived at the school with several bodyguards, a lawyer, and the three kids.

The parent-teacher meeting proceeded as scheduled, presided over by the principal.

The principal first talked about the incident involving the five children, then played the relevant surveillance footage.

After listening and watching, the parents engaged in heated discussions.

“I can’t believe these kids could be so cunning at such a young age, forming cliques and bullying their classmates.”

“That online incident was cleared up by the person who posted it, who also apologized. Was it really the children or the parents with ulterior motives who fed them with such nonsense? Otherwise, how could these young children be so vicious?”

The principal allowed the parents to continue discussing for a while before raising his hand.

“Dear parents, we should have dealt with this issue yesterday, but Dr. Dunn, the parent of Timmy Lewis and Timothy Dunn, insisted that the school conduct a thorough investigation. As per Dr. Dunn’s suggestion, we reviewed the surveillance footage from the beginning of the school year and discovered some problems. We then also reviewed the footage from the month before vacation and found the problematic footage.”

Usually, the school’s surveillance cameras were treated as decorations, and no one bothered to review the footage.

As a result, when Richelle raised doubts and requested a thorough investigation, numerous issues were uncovered.

In early May, Anderson Kirby and Hizkia Kingston cornered a classmate on the staircase, exchanged a few harsh words, and the victim reluctantly handed over his lunch money and snacks from his bag.

In mid-May, Anderson grabbed a girl’s tennis racket in the gym and threatened to hit her with it, accompanied by another boy involved in the gossip.

In early, mid, and late June, as well as in the first few days of school, similar incidents occurred, but each time the targeted victim was different.

Clearly, they never targeted the same person twice.

This made their bullying less likely to be exposed.

As the children believed these incidents were isolated, once they survived one encounter, they would be on edge for a few days before thinking the matter had passed.

After the surveillance footage was played, the parents were outraged.

Just moments ago, they had been quietly discussing, but now they stood up and surrounded Anderson and the other students involved in the bullying, as well as their parents.
