Chapter 292 It’s Because Of Batman

On the way to the school, Sarah had a worried expression on her face thinking about Raphael.

She knew that this was not the first time her son had fought. The twins are fighting almost every day, either because of the toys or are playing together and suddenly want to disturb their sibling.

However, It never crossed Sarah's mind that Raphael would be fighting on his third day of school. Was his eldest son bullied by his friends so that he retaliated?

Just as Sarah was thinking about what had caused her son to fight, the cab that had brought her arrived at her kids' school.

After paying the cab fare, Sarah went straight to the teacher's room. Once there, Sarah glanced around, looking for the teacher who had called her earlier. Sarah's gaze then turned to a small little boy who was standing there.

Even though Sarah could only see the side face, she knew that it was her baby.

"Raphael!" Sarah called then immediately went to her son while running.

Raphael, who had been wearing an expression ready for war, turned his head when someone called his name. The little boy's face looked surprised when he saw his Mommy coming and now she has hugged him.

To be honest, he felt awkward because suddenly his Mommy came. It's better if Mommy doesn't come. However, when he felt that familiar warm embrace, it made Raphael grateful that his Mommy had come here.

"Are you alright?" asked Sarah letting go of her arms and holding her son's cheek to look closely at his face. Is there something different in his adorable face or not.

Sarah's eyes widened when she found a scar like a scratch on Raphael's right cheek. The wound wasn't deep enough to bleed, but she could see that the scratch was red.

"Are you the mother of this brat?"

Sarah's face, which had a worried look, immediately lifted her head and looked at the woman who was currently looking at her with a condescending look.

Sarah, who had been kneeling to match her son's height, immediately stood up.

"I am the mother, but please take back your words that called my son a brat!" said Sarah firmly.

Her kids may often make her head hurt because of their naughty behavior, but that doesn't mean other people can call them brat!

The woman, who was equipped with jewelry and holding a bag with the Collins brand, snorted when she heard Sarah's words. Her arms were crossed on her chest.

"He's delinquent, so it's only natural that I call him brat!" said the woman angrily.

"Mrs. White, we should..." The female teacher's words were cut short when the woman who seemed to be Sarah's age gave her a stern look.

"You want to make me forget about this?!" the woman asked in a raised voice. She then opened her hand and pointed at Raphael.

"Didn't you see what this brat did to my son?!" she asked in a rising voice.

Sarah's expression looked displeased when she saw the woman pointing at her son. However, Sarah soon realized that she had not seen the child who fought with Raphael.

It didn't take long for Sarah to find him because the boy was standing next to his mother while sobbing. The boy's stature looks plump, and his cheeks look so adorable to pinch.

It's just that now his cheeks look bruised, and his nose is clogged with tissue because it looks like he's bleeding.

Sarah's eyes widened when she saw the wound, she then reflexively looked at Raphael who looked at his friend with an annoyed look on his face.

From the shape of his body, that chubby little boy is clearly bigger than her son. However, Raphael gave such a wound to that kid?!

She knew that Raphael and Gabriel had used their tiny fists several times when they were fighting, but she didn't expect that her son would inflict such a fatal wound on that chubby little boy.

It's because of Batman! She knew that Michael had secretly shown Batman films to the twins. Seems like she should have to discuss this with Michael to not do that again.

"Raphael!" Sarah called in a firm voice.

If indeed what happened to the chubby little boy's face was because of Raphael, then Sarah would scold him! But for now, Sarah wanted to confirm that first.

"What happened? Why did you hit your friend like that?" Sarah asked sternly.

"...," Raphael pressed his lips when he heard his Mommy's voice which was clearly angry.

"Raphael!" Sarah called, still sounding firm. Her voice didn't rise because they weren't at home right now, but it was clear that she was angry.

"..."

The woman snorted when she saw that the brat didn't say anything.

"I'm really curious, how do you educate your son?!" she asked with an expression of disbelief on his face.

"What did you say?!" Sarah asked, turning to the woman fiercely.

The woman snorted at Sarah's expression.

"Why are you looking at me like that?! My son is the victim, but the culprit looks more fierce. Wow... I really can't believe this!" she said as she opened her eyes in disbelief.

"My Baby... try to explain what happened, it seems that brat doesn't want to tell his mother!" said the woman then turned to her son.

"Rapa... suddenly hit me in the face, I was screaming in pain and crying, but he kept hitting me!" said the chubby little boy while sobbing.

Sarah opened her eyes in disbelief when she heard that.

"Is that true, Raphael?!" asked Sarah looking at her son sharply.

However, once again Raphael was still keeping his mouth shut.

Sarah sighed when she saw her son's refusal to say anything. Even though she still didn't want to admit it, it seemed that this time it was indeed the fault of her son.

"I apologize for my son's behavior," Sarah said, now changing her facial expression.

"It looks like your son needs to be examined by a doctor because he has a nosebleed, and the bruising is close to the eye area. Although that shouldn't be a problem, it's better to get checked out. As an apology, I'll pay the hospital bill," Sarah continued politely.

"Isn't that obvious for you to pay for it?" asked the woman still looking arrogant.

"I know as a parent, you should apologize, but shouldn't that brat first apologize for hitting my son?" continued the woman while pointing again at Raphael who was still wearing an annoying facial expression.

Sarah took a breath not to get angry because that woman was calling her son like that again. She then turned to look at Raphael whose facial expression never changed.

"Raphael!" Sarah called, crouching down and sounding gentle. "Let's apologize for hitting your friend," he continued as gently as possible.

It didn't seem like assertiveness would work, so Sarah tried to change her tactics.

"No! I won't apologize!" said Raphael firmly.

Sarah opened her eyes in disbelief when she heard those words. She knew that her son was stubborn, but when he was fighting with his brother and being asked to apologize, he apologized.

"Why?" Sarah asked trying to be patient and still sounding gentle.

Raphael opened his mouth, then closed it again, deciding not to say anything.

"Hah! Look at this brat! Did you even educate him properly?" asked the woman with a snort.

Sarah turned and stood up immediately when she heard that. The expression on her face looked genuinely angry at what the woman had just said.

"Actually, I'm going to let this go because I heard you're a single mom. I mean, this brat doesn't even have a father to teach him. Maybe that's why he became like this," the woman continued.

"Mrs. White! It seems your words are inappropriate. There are kids listening," said the female teacher. who had been silent for a long time because she chose to let the two mothers try to reach an agreement first.

If not, it would just be mediation between them.

However, she couldn't keep quiet when she heard the woman's insulting words. He didn't want to defend Sarah, but right now there were kids listening in.

"I'm just telling the facts!" said the woman stubbornly.

While Sarah chose to remain silent, her hands were already clenched into fists, trying to keep her emotions from escaping. Right now her main focus was on solving this problem and not prolonging it.

"But..."

"Shush!" said the woman interrupting the female teacher.

"Since this brat doesn't want to apologize, we should wait for my husband who is on his way here. Your chance to apologize is over and we just wait for my husband!" she said arrogantly then turned around and walked to the seat that was there with her son.

Sarah just sighed when she heard that. She hopes that the woman's husband can be a little more rational than his wife. She then looked at her son whose facial expression never changed, even now his hands are clenched into fists again.

Sarah sighed again. It seems that because she was too busy thinking about going back to work, she had forgotten about her time with her kids. After this she had to talk to them again.

"Raphael, let's sit there first," Sarah said then held her son's hand which was still tightly clenched.

Raphael's fist immediately opened when his Mommy touched it. He just nodded and followed his Mommy without saying anything.

"What did you just say?" asked Michael looking at James in disbelief.

"Young master Raphael was involved in a fight at his school and right now Mrs. Smith is there because the school has called her."
