Come Into My Arms novel Chapter 298

In the principal's office.

As soon as she walked in the door, Amelia saw Patrick sitting on the couch with his dignified appearance.

He sat, but the principal stood, scowling and smiling.

Visibly relieved to see Andrew, the principal turned to Patrick and said, "Mr. Hopper, your nephew is here!"

Patrick laughed scornfully, "My nephew is hurt like this and you're laughing, is this how your school protects its students?"

The principal was not sure what to say.

Andrew was nervous from the moment he met Patrick. He admired him but was also afraid of him, wondering how Patrick would handle his fight...

"Where are Andrew's parents?" The woman didn't know who Patrick was yet, just assumed he was someone unimportant.

Owen liked to keep a low profile because of his work, and Nora was a gentle person who had never told anyone that she was from The Hopper Family.

Patrick stared at the woman, "I'm Andrew's uncle, and I've heard from the principal that the responsibility for what just happened is on our side, so tell me what you want to do about it."

The woman was surprised by Patrick's quickness, and after coughing said, "I'm not an unreasonable person, as long as you compensate the medical expenses..."

"Sure."

"Also, I want Andrew to apologize to Bache personally."

"Okay."

Everything Patrick said made Amelia uneasy, and she was sure Andrew did too, wasn't Patrick partial to his nephews and nieces?

The woman paused to make sure she hadn't missed anything, and then urged Patrick, "Now can I get your nephew to apologize?"

With his hands clasped in his lap, Patrick said in a low voice, "Andrew, come here."

Andrew remained motionless while holding Amelia's hand, which was shaking.

Patrick said in an unusually terrifying tone, "Come here, and don't make me say it a second time!"

Andrew broke away from Amelia's hand and reluctantly came to Patrick's side.

Before Patrick could say anything, Andrew yelled "I'm sorry" and then quickly turned around and ran out of the principal's office without looking back!

No one expected this to happen, and Patrick was the only one in the room who reacted.

As he went after Andrew, he said to Amelia, "I'll get him, you go get Ashley, and I'll see you in front of the school."

Amelia watched his back and wondered if he could calm Andrew down...

"Oh, it's good that things are settled..." said the principal nervously, then took out a handkerchief from his pocket and wiped the sweat from his face.

In fact, the principal was so shocked when he found out about Andrew's background that he even complained about Andrew's homeroom teacher not telling him this crucial information in time!

It was a good thing Patrick was a reasonable guy, or he would have been in big trouble!

In the classroom.

After all the children in the class had left, only two boys remained around a little girl, one holding a candy bar and the other a game console, coaxing the sullen little girl who was lying on the table.

"Ashley, just smile, just smile, and the candy is yours!"
