Jay was even more sure that Robbie was lying.
"Baby Robbie, good children don't lie," he said.
Robbie blinked innocently. He did not argue for himself, because he indeed had done something wrong.
He only wanted to teach Jenson martial arts, but he accidentally kicked the ball onto the antique shelf which had caused it to collapse. Then, a chain reaction happened and one shelf fell onto another, which resulted in the current scene.
Anything that was breakable on those shelves was in pieces.
Robbie had once accidentally broken a vase back in his previous kindergarten. Mommy had to perform cleaning duties for three months to settle the issue. Now that Robbie had broken so many expensive antiques, what should Mommy do if Daddy asked her t o pay up?
Robbie did not know what to do.
"Baby Robbie, your punishment is to clean up the room," Jay said angrily.
Robbie did not hesitate. He found the broom and dustpan and started to sweep up the broken pieces.
Jenson's eyes were transfixed on the Elephant's Eye i
n his fortress. It was a window built in the shape of an elephant, and in the middle of the window was an eye. Right now, the Elephant's Eye was blinking.
Jenson buried his head into Jay's lap in sheer terror.
