Cutie, Please Marry Me Again (Jenna and Hansen) novel Chapter 1840

When the time came, Raeleigh enrolled Carsten into a kindergarten. On the first day of school, Carsten was bullied.

Raeleigh felt sorry for him as she gently touched his swollen face. He had been beaten because he could not speak.

She wanted to confront the bully, but Jepherson stopped her.

He told her that Carsten should resolve this matter by himself.

That year, Raeleigh could not sleep well at night. Hair loss became an issue, and she was exhausted all the time.

But after half a month, the children stopped bullying Carsten. Instead, their parents came to Raeleigh's home.

"Just take a look at your child..."

The parents pointed to their child, and Raeleigh was confused when she saw a boy about the same height as Carsten.

The boy seemed to have taken a serious beating, but when Carsten had gotten beaten up like this, Raeleigh hadn't gone to look for trouble with the bully's parents, did she?

Raeleigh retorted, "And? It's normal for children to fight. My son can't speak; he's autistic, but your son can talk. What do you want me to say? My son has never fought with other children before. In fact, he has always been bullied."

"No, Carsten is harsh when he's violent. He even told me that he beat me as revenge. He does talk."

After that, the boy burst into tears.

Raeleigh said, "You shouldn't lie, boy. My son has never spoken a word since he was a baby."

"Ah..."

The boy cried even louder, and Raeleigh said, "You can do whatever you want. It's not good for children to fight, but my son has never laid a hand on another child! Besides, it takes two to tango, doesn't it?"

The boy's parents were furious. "Though my son likes to get into fights, he never lies. Your son is obviously a lively child, yet you insist that he can't talk. I wasn't going to ask for anything from you, but if you keep denying, I'm going to sue you."

"You may do as you wish."

Raeleigh seethed.

With a bang, she closed the door and turned around to look at Carsten as he stood in the room.

Raeleigh had never laid a hand on him. She stepped forward and held him into his arms. Although he was only four years old, he was already a heavy child.

Raeleigh sat on the sofa and said to Carsten, "Don't worry. I'll protect you. If they come back, I'll chase them away."

Carsten looked up at her and fell asleep in her arms.

The next day, another child came to their house with complaints of their own, and this continued for a week. Raeleigh was truly exhausted by the time the weekend rolled around. She thought about how everyone was saying that Carsten could talk, and how it didn't make sense for all the children to lie.

Raeleigh drove Carsten to the kindergarten. After Carsten got out of the car and waved goodbye to Raeleigh, she pulled away but turned back shortly after. She had already made an appointment with the teacher, so she went right into the kindergarten.

She hid in a corner and watched as everyone listened to their classes. However, Carsten was nowhere in sight.

Raeleigh felt this odd, and thought that someone must have secretly instructed Carsten to do so.

Since the teachers seemed to be in on this, it could only mean that this was Jepherson's doing.

Raeleigh began to look for Carsten. Eventually, she stopped when she heard clapping noises and the sound of someone blowing a whistle on the soccer field.

She walked into the soccer field and noticed several children playing soccer there; Carsten was amongst them.

Their game was somewhat different from the usual soccer game. It seemed like they were training to play soccer. Usually, the goalkeeper would lead the training by blowing the whistle if he were dissatisfied.

But apart from the goalkeeper, everyone else seemed to be trying their best to kick the soccer ball.
