Chapter 1193 - 1232: Power
Mabel Quinn’s brow furrowed. When kids fight, regardless of who was initially right or wrong, in the end, it’s the more severely injured child who feels more aggrieved. She didn’t want her daughter to form the notion of resolving issues through fighting. Originally, she planned to have her daughter apologize to Bella Field. However, at this moment, after listening to Mrs. Field’s words, Mabel showed no sign of backing down and said, "I don’t believe there’s necessarily a problem with the education received in a single-parent family. On the contrary, Mrs. Field, what you’re saying is not something a well-mannered person would say."
"Are you saying I lack manners?" Mrs. Field glared angrily. "Do you know who my husband is? With just a word from him at the education bureau, your daughter can forget about staying in this kindergarten!"
Looking at the arrogant woman in front of her, Mabel found it amusing. "Whether or not you have manners has nothing to do with who your husband is or what he does for a living. Even if your husband is the director of the education bureau, does it mean officials can abuse their power to oppress ordinary people? Moreover, as far as I remember, the current director of the education bureau doesn’t have the surname Field. Is he the deputy director? Below them, it must be the head or section chief then."
"You..." Mrs. Field’s face turned bright red, feeling that her dignity had taken a severe hit. She turned and said to the homeroom teacher beside her, "Ms. Lee, I don’t want my daughter to be in the same class as children from such families. Have your principal expel this child, or else, this kindergarten can forget about receiving the city’s subsidy this year!"
At this moment, Ms. Lee looked extremely uncomfortable, but not towards Mabel Quinn; rather towards Mrs. Field. This lady didn’t have a good reputation in their kindergarten. Everyone knew she only flaunted her husband’s position, enjoyed flattery, and liked others to hold her in high regard. She was the one who insisted on bringing the other parent over here, although she knew the other parent had an injured leg.
The homeroom teacher initially thought that by calling Mabel Quinn over and saying a few nice words, this matter would be resolved. But who could have imagined Mrs. Field would say such things right from the start? Who could tolerate that!
Especially now, when she even suggested expelling Katherine Quinn. Did she really think the kindergarten was run by her family?
Inwardly, the homeroom teacher criticized furiously but outwardly had no choice but to calm things down, "Mrs. Field, there’s no need to escalate this situation. It’s merely a matter of kids’ fighting. Let’s turn big issues into small, and small issues into none."
"What do you mean? My daughter was beaten like this, and I’m supposed to swallow my anger?" Mrs. Field said with an unyielding expression. "Get your principal over here and expel her at once!"
Mabel sneered, "Authority isn’t meant to be used like that. You use your authority to expel other children, so what if one day, someone else uses their authority to expel your child?"
"Ha! Just you?" Mrs. Field said unkindly, "You’re a single mother, and as I’ve heard from Ms. Lee, you’re nothing more than a third-rate screenwriter writing at home every day. What authority could you possibly have to expel my child?"
"So do I have the authority?" Another voice suddenly rang out, and as Mabel turned her head, a person in a suit instantly came into view.
