It wasn't until his mouth tasted metallic that Ian let go.
......
Four in the afternoon.
Violette got a call from the school saying Ian had bitten someone and she needed to come to the school immediately.
This left Violette puzzled, b
ecause Ian was supposed to be in a one-person classroom.
He didn't have any classmates, so who did he bite?
Could it be that he bit a teacher?
With that possibility in mind, Violette immediately switched off her computer, grabbed her car keys and headed out.
How could he bite a teacher?
Even if there was some conflict with the teacher, that was no way to solve it!
She knew Ian wasn't that kind of kid.
How did he turn out like this?
Had she been too busy lately and neglected her two children?
She decided she needed to have a serious talk with her children tonight.
Upon arriving at the school, Ian's teacher said apologetically, "Ms. Dennis, your son has been taken away."
Violette's eyebrows knit together in shock.
"But don't worry. Ian was taken away by Mr. Elijah. You must have heard of Mr. Bourne, right? I can give you his address. You can pick up Ian there," the teacher said.
Violette's face turned red with anger. "Why did you let him take Ian away? Doesn't your school have any regulations? Why didn't you call me when he took Ian? I'm really disappointed in you guys!"
The teacher immediately explained, "Ma'am, let me explain. Mr. Bourne didn't take Ian away long before I was going to call you, but I figured you'd be here soon, so I didn't. As for why Mr. Bourne took Ian, it's because Ian got into a fierce argument with Makayla today. Makayla cried all afternoon. After Mr. Bourne came, he asked Ian why they were arguing, but Ian wouldn't say. When Makayla woke up just now and said she wanted to go home, Mr. Bourne took Ian home too. He wants to find out why they were arguing."
The teacher explained very clearly, b
ut Violette was still angry.
She gripped her car keys and stormed off.
The teacher followed her, saying, "Ms. Dennis, don't be angry! I can go with you to pick up Ian! You might not know the way to Mr. Bourne's house, I can go with you..."
Violette, who had a massive headache, said, "Stop talking to me! I'll go myself!"
