Chapter 665: Chapter 661: Beautiful Counterattack

Anderson Kirby had barely finished speaking when the bathroom door was slammed open. Then Timmy Lewis and Timothy Dunn, brothers, barged in and began a one-sided assault on the three male students.

After watching the clear audio and unmistakable images from the surveillance footage, it was evident who was in the right and who was in the wrong.

The headmaster’s expression grew serious after watching the few minutes of surveillance footage.

He called the five children to his office, separately questioning Timmy Lewis and his brother as the “assailants” and the other three as “victims.”

At first, he considered this to be a minor conflict caused by gossip and hearsay among the children.

However, after watching the surveillance footage, the truth was undeniable.

This was a sinister provocation and assault planned and instigated by Anderson Kirby!

And the planner was not even ten years old!

His motives were undoubtedly vile and malicious.

And he had always believed that the thirty-two gifted children he had personally recruited were all virtuous and talented kids.

Mrs. Kirby and the other two moms were dumbfounded after watching the surveillance footage.

Nevertheless, Mrs. Kirby hurriedly defended her son to the headmaster and attempted to turn the tables.

“Headmaster, our children only said a few unkind words and didn’t cause any physical harm to them. However, the Dunn brothers rushed in and beat our children like punching bags. In my opinion, the brothers clearly have a violent tendency. And it’s evident that the parents have deliberately indulged them. Otherwise, look at their fighting skills, headmaster. They must have been trained. If it’s not their parents’ instigation, who would believe it?”

Richelle Dunn sneered coldly, “That’s right, my three children have indeed had training to defend themselves against assaults or entrapments from despicable people. But Mrs. Kirby, don’t you find it funny that your son was the one stirring up trouble, and now you’re blaming my children for not letting themselves be bullied by your child?”

Richelle’s words were sharp and stern, effectively silencing the other two parents.

It was Mrs. Kirby who figured that if she couldn’t argue any sense today, her precious son would probably be forced to leave the school.

“Oh, who doesn’t know that your children are arrogant at school? What did my son say? Wasn’t it also true that you and your assistant were having an affair…”

Richelle, standing not far from Mrs. Kirby, turned around and slapped her across the face, mid-sentence.

“Smack!”

The crisp sound of the slap interrupted Mrs. Kirby’s words.

“Mrs. Kirby, this slap is my response to your slander. Furthermore, I reserve the right to pursue legal action against you!”

Richelle had recently learned many ways to protect her legitimate rights and interests from her frequent interactions with the Lewis Group’s top lawyers.

Mrs. Kirby’s ear rang, and her face instantly swelled from the slap.

Seeing this, the headmaster stepped in to maintain order.

“Please calm down, parents. The sequence of events has been pieced together from the statements of both parties and the surveillance footage. It’s clear that Anderson Kirby maliciously incited the whole class to alienate the Lewis siblings and attempted to marginalize them – one form of school bullying. Then, in the restroom, Anderson purposely spread false rumors and maliciously slandered and insulted the other students’ parents and classmates. Timmy and Timothy first encountered bullying in the classroom and were then insulted in the restroom, prompting their actions. It’s understandable that they couldn’t control their emotions and ended up throwing a few punches.”

“Just now, I had the school doctor examine the injuries, and all of them are minor injuries that won’t damage muscles or bones. They will heal in a couple of days. However, the mental harm inflicted on the Lewis siblings by Anderson and the two other students may never heal.”

“So, I hereby rule that, in this incident, the principal offender, Anderson Kirby, bears full responsibility for the bullying. The other two students, as accomplices, bear fifty percent responsibility. Timmy and Timothy, as the real victims, were pushed to the brink of endurance before they had to fight back. They bear no responsibility for the injuries sustained by the three other students as a result of their resistance.”

The headmaster’s solemn announcement silenced Mrs. Kirby, whose face was ashen, and the other two trembling parents.

“In light of the agreement you parents just made, the school will hold a parent-teacher conference tomorrow morning, during which the entire class of parents and students will vote to decide whether to expel the three bullying students.”

At this point, Mrs. Kirby found her voice again.

“Headmaster, I retract my previous proposal and propose again that the school’s regular rules be applied for punishment.”

The other two students’ moms also came to their senses and hurriedly seconded her motion.

“Yes, we also propose that this matter be handled according to the school’s rules.”

These parents had backed down because they knew that under normal circumstances, their children would likely just receive a reprimand and some sanctions.

Yet, if put to a vote by the parents and students, the outcome could be uncertain.

“I disagree!”

Richelle Dunn rejected their proposal. “Headmaster, I have reason to suspect that this bullying incident is not an isolated one. I suggest the school conduct a thorough investigation of the entire class. If any problems are found, the corresponding surveillance footage should be extracted as evidence. I, along with other parents, will use legal means to protect our children!”
