Chapter 438

Larissa got a call from Aster’s homeroom teacher during work once again. She hurriedly made her way to the kindergarten and found Aster In the teacher’s office. He stood next to the homeroom teacher’s seat with his head down, his eyes red even as his teeth bit down hard into his lower lip. The look on his face was one of stubbomness.

Well, he did not look i Larissa released a little sigh of relief.

The homeroom teacher stood up immediately upon seeing her.

Maam-

Aster turned to look at her, and his eyes were a little watery. His stubbornness gradually faded into unhappiness. Her heart aching Larissa hastened forward to bring him into her arms “Ms. Gilmore.” She turned to look at the homeroom teacher. “What happened?”

In the phone call Ella Gilmore had only said that “something had happened” and that Larissa should “come over to the Academy quickly.” but she did not say what happened exactly. Looking at Aster, Ella sighed softly. “Aster pushed Bethany, causing her to fall and spill hot water on herself. Her arm has been scalded. She has now been sent to the hospital”

Larissa frowned-Bethany Rogers again, it seemed that whenever that brat was involved, nothing good could ever come out of it.

“I didn’t push her? Aster denied with agitation. “just pulled away from hert She fell down on her own He looked up at Larissa with hope. and Larissa gently rubbed his head, soothing him.

“I believe you.” She knew exactly what kind of person her son was, If he had truly done something wrong, he would not be afraid of admitting it.

Aster only let himself cry at this time. He hugged Larissa’s leg and buried his face into her waist, sobbing like a wounded animal, which made her feel sadder for him.

Calming hersell Larissa turned to Ella. “Ms. Gilmore, did anyone see Aster push Bethany? Or, perhaps, is there any surveillance footage to prove it?”

Ella was a little awkward. “Well, no one saw it and there’s no surveillance footage — It was Bethany who said that Aster pushed her. I don’t think Aster would push anyone on purpose, but since Bethany fell down and even got hurt. I’m worried that her guardians will not be happy.”

Ella’s concern was valid.

Aster was the one who fell down and got scalded by hot water today, Larissa would probably get angry at the student who had bodily contact with him too. But this sort of anger would be temporary. She believed that Aster would definitely tell her the truth and disavow that student However, Bethany would not be the same.

Aber Aster calmed down, Larissa asked him again, “Can you tell me what happened?”

Asternodded and said, “I was in charge of clearing the dishes while everyone else went to take their naps after lunch. Then Bethany came in. She had a thermos in hand, saying that she came over to drink some water. She poured a cup and left it on the table. Saying that she was waiting for it to cool down. Lignored her, and she came over to pull at my hand, refusing to let me lake the dishes, so I threw her hand aside-I swear that I didn’t push her, and then she fell down, spiling the water as she did. I went to find Ms. Gilmore, and then Bethany said that I was the one who pushed her, which was why she fell down
