Contract Marriage: The Replacement Groom

Chapter 229

229 Parent–teacher meeting

However, when she suddenly saw a cute side to Valen, she was mesmerized and immediately wanted to talk to him. As she stood up, Valen got up and left the cafeteria. 1

He did that on purpose, wanting her to keep chasing him around for his plan to work. 1

In class, on that same day, Valen started to display intelligence that was beyond their age. All the girls in class couldn’t help loving him and Mia wasn’t an exception, which was why, on the second day, she brought a cake for Valen but was coldly rejected.

Mia had never tasted rejection before, which was why, after Valen publicly rejected her, she made it her goal to befriend him by all means. So when Lu Zack who liked Mia and had been running around her like a fly saw this, he was furious and it gave birth to the idea of bullying Valen until he quit school.

Presently, Jeslyn reckoned the stubborn Valen must have abandoned his food, so she asked: “You didn’t eat, did you?”

“The idiot ruined my mooncake.”

“Oh, and you’ve been craving that for some days now… alright, I’ll make you some, on the condition that you’ll tell the boy you are sorry and shouldn’t have injured his hand.”

“But it was fine that I beat his face, right?” He curled his lips when he saw her face changing.

Jeslyn gasped. The principal didn’t tell her that. “Y- you beat his face and still stabbed his hand?!” That was someone’s child ah!1

“Mhm. I wanted to beat his body but he was too thick. It felt like I was hitting slime and it was annoying, and he wasn’t feeling the amount of pain I wanted to see, so I beat his face. I’m sure he won’t be talking or eating for a long time. And a few teeth must have fallen off… mum, he’s the first person I’ve ever beaten and it was satisfying.” He beamed with squinted eyes.

Annoying Jeslyn is too interesting. Didn’t he tell her he didn’t want to go to school?

“Valen!!” Jeslyn screamed when she saw how unapologetic he was.

“Hehe… I’ll be in my room. Inform me when the mooncakes are ready. That should serve as a lesson to all of them both now and in the future. As for that girl trying to catch my attention, I’m sure she would see me as a monster now. Good riddance. hmph!” He walked away after that, leaving Jeslyn in utter shock. 1

“This child… This child shall be a big trouble in the future! God help me! Jeslyn cried in her heart as she watched his small frame slowly walk the stairs with pride and arrogance hovering above his head. (2

The next morning at school…

Inside the Principal’s office, the higher–ups were standing behind the Principal while an elegantly dressed

woman with flawless skin was seen sitting on a chair across from the Principal’s table. With how hard her face was, it needed no dissection to know she had said some nasty words to the Principal and was taking a deep breath, while waiting for the parents of the child who hurt her son.

Four guards were standing gallantly behind her with their broad chests puffed out.Material © NôvelDrama.Org.

“When are they coming?! Do you expect me to wait another thirty minutes for them? Give me the damn address to their home, they need to be taught a lesson on how to raise that violent wolf they call a son!!” She thundered.

“If

my son is a wolf, then yours is a dog with a wolf tag, so he should have watched well before leaping at its master.” Jeslyn’s cold voice drifted into the office before she did.

She was wearing a knee–length black glittering gown with a nude jacket on top. A black purse, a black hat, and shades, with half of her face covered with a black mask.

As she stepped into the office in her six–inch heels making clicking sounds, Lu Zack’s mother couldn’t help but admire the glamorous young lady in front of her. Even though her face was concealed, there was no denying it that she was filthy rich… but who is this woman? What family is she from? Those questions took over the rage that had been building up inside her since yesterday. Code 5 pulled out a chair for Jeslyn and she sat on it before crossing her leg and turning her head to look at the woman who called her wonderful son a wolf.

The Principal wanted to stand up and say his greetings, but without turning, Jeslyn motioned with her hand for him to sit down. It wouldn’t be good if he addressed her as Madam Lu… Just yet.

“Did you not feel ashamed when you opened that mouth of yours to call my son a violent wolf?” She slowly took off the shades and the hat, revealing half of her face and letting her hair that was made into a messy bun to frame her gorgeous forehead.

Talking to a woman like this requires action and not mere words, so she didn’t want anything to get in the

way, in case a need arises that she wants to beat some senses into this woman. Thought Jeslyn.

“So

you are his mother?… Ha, no wonder you gave birth to such an atrocious child. You should be the one ashamed for spoiling your child so much and-”

“Hahahaha…” Jeslyn suddenly laughed. Her laughter was rich to the ears and made those who heard it want more. “Says the woman who never taught her son that bullying is not acceptable, no matter the age.”

Lu Zack’s mother didn’t fail to hear the sarcasm in her tone. She turned to the principal, she didn’t want to battle words with this troublesome woman. Her family has all the money and power she needs, so instead of demeaning herself to such an extent as wasting time talking too much, she’d rather make this woman know why the Lu family is feared around the world. “Principal, what do you have to say about this?”

“Madam Lu, I…” he glanced passively at Jeslyn who was drumming the desk with her fingers, and sighed. “It was the fault of the school for not paying special attention to the children. The school apologizes and promises to take responsibility. The Principal and a few higher–ups bowed in apology.

What does this mean? You are taking all the blame? And the kid?…” She chuckled dryly. “Don’t make a mistake, Mr. Principal. You’ll pay for It too, but not just you. The kid and his parents would also pay the price for not raising their son well.”
