Chapter 508 My Sister Needs to Go Home and Change
The next day, Tina was already awake and ready to go to school. Even though Courtney wanted to persuade her to rest for a few more days, she was afraid that her daughter might recall unwanted memories, so she did not stop Tina either.
After the family had their breakfast, Alexander silently waited for Tina to grab her bag while Courtney suddenly understood his intentions and felt a lot more relieved.
Just before she went out, Alexander took Tina’s bag as his voice echoed in the living room. “From now on, I will send Tina to school and Jordan will be responsible for picking her up.”
After that, Jordan and Alexander walked beside her and entered the car.
Jordan’s car had already been waiting for a long time at the entrance of the school by the time evening came. When the bell rang, a bunch of teenagers wearing uniforms ran out at the same time. As he was playing sudoku on his laptop, he still did not hear the sound of the door opening even after two rounds.
Jordan’s driver, Malcolm Gorn, had half of his body stuck out of the window as he looked for Tina before asking in worry, “Little Master, the students have all almost gone home now, so why isn’t the Little Miss coming out? Could it be that something has happened to her?”
This sentence made Jordan frown as he had already opened the door while keeping his laptop away. Stepping out, he wore a dark expression. “I’ll take a look.”
While walking in the main hallway to the direction of where Tina’s classroom was, Jordan caught a lot of girls taking a second look at him on the way. If he was still in school, he would be in middle school by now, but as he had been following Alexander for these few years, it resulted in an aura that did not match his age.
As Jordan walked past the girls, he could hear a loud commotion outside the hallway of the classroom from far away. He unknowingly quickened his footsteps when he heard foul language.
Standing at the entrance of the classroom, he saw Tina curled up in the corner and drenched with a patch of water surrounding her. In front of her was a chubby boy who threw the red bucket on the floor and bellowed, “Since you’re always acting so high and mighty, why don’t you just die there?”
Then, a lanky girl appeared in front of Tina with her arms spread open as her face was red with anger. Even though she was still moving backward against her own will, she still mustered up the courage to protect Tina.
“Fetty Link, don’t think that you can bully the opposite gender just because your family is a bit rich. Who doesn’t know that you failed to court Tina and are exacting your petty revenge right now?”
Fetty snorted at this.
“Sherlane Dunn, I really see you everywhere. Why are you butting into our conversation? Do you think that I would like such a girl with such a shameless mother? You stupid b*tch, you must be dreaming!”
After he said that, he laughed loudly, making the boys following him laugh out loud too.
Sherlane was on the verge of crying after his words, but she did not have the guts to make a move. Looking back, she found Tina trembling and grinding her teeth as if she was about to explode.
“Calm down, Tina. Don’t listen to his nonsense.”
When she saw that the situation was heating up, Sherlane quickly hugged Tina with the fear that she would rush straight at Fetty. If that happened, then Tina would lose for sure.
Just as Sherlane was about to lose control of Tina, she heard a clunk coming from behind her followed by a shout from Fetty.
When she had discovered what happened, he was already drenched in water with the red bucket covering his head. However, before Fetty could remove it, Jordan had already sent him flying with a kick.
A dumbfounded Sherlane saw a handsome boy kicking Fetty, making him cry out in pain for his mother, as he rolled on the floor. At that moment, her heart was beating wildly with her eyes shooting love signs.
Rubbing his somewhat reddened fist, Jordan glared at those boys without a word, causing them to scamper out of the classroom.
Turning around, he then looked at Tina with pain in his heart.
Her brash personality before meant that she was not one that would be easily bullied. but today was different as the thing that defeated her was not the bucket of cold water or Fetty’s fat fists. It was a thing that she had not encountered for the twelve years of her life—a human’s cruelty.
Tina, who was still twelve, could not digest those toxic comments that stemmed from a person’s darkest desires.
“Tina Hunter.” Jordan had a glacial tone as he looked at her.
Looking up with bloodshot eyes, Tina slightly relaxed upon meeting with her brother’s gaze.
“Let’s go home.”
Taking off the light blue suit jacket, he held it in one hand while extending his other hand to Tina.
Tina managed to stand up with Sherlane’s help, but a wave of warmth traveled from her fingertips to the rest of her body when her cold fingers touched Jordan’s palm.
“What are you all doing?”
Jordan had covered Tina with his suit jacket and was planning to leave the classroom with her when a person with a round body blocked the door all of a sudden.
It was a fifty-year-old man with a beer belly in question. Wearing a blue shirt that seemed to almost burst at his belly button, he placed his hands behind his back and looked very imposing.
A frightened Sherlane hid behind Jordan while mumbling quietly, “We’re done. It’s the head of discipline.”
While peering at the man, Jordan had no change in his expression as he was not familiar with the school rules, so naturally, he did not know the fear this person instilled in the students. “The head of discipline?”
Before Jordan could ask any further, he felt a chubby person rush past him toward an older chubby adult.
By the time he looked closer, Fetty had already hugged the rotund teacher and started crying. “Someone hit me!”
At that moment, Sherlane mumbled again, “Oh god, we’re done. The head is Fetty’s uncle.”
“Who amongst you hit Fetty?”
“I did.”
The livid teacher was made angrier at Jordan’s nonchalant gaze. “Which class are you from? Call your parents here now!”
Tightening his grip on Tina’s hand, Jordan said impatiently, “My sister needs to go home and change now, so if you have anything, just tell me. I can deal with my sister’s matters.”
The head of discipline nearly fainted from anger. “This isn’t concerning your sister. It’s concerning you right now. Is this how you talk to your teachers?”
“Then, how should I talk to you?”
Sherlane felt her heart almost leaping from her mouth, but this time it was not because of love, as she tugged on Jordan’s shirt from behind.
“Speak more respectfully. The head of discipline likes people praising him.”
Jordan paused before he replied, “I heard you like people kissing your *ss, right? I apologize, but kissing *ss is something that I don’t know how to do.”
She almost fainted upon hearing this as it was without surprise that the teacher would shout the sentence that every student feared. “Hand over your parents’ phone number!”
A thought then flashed across Jordan’s mind before he smiled and nodded. “If you really want my parents to come, then I have nothing to say, but I think you should also call that brat’s parents too.”
Now that Fetty had the teacher’s backing, he obviously became a lot braver as he spoke with a jiggly jaw, “You all can wait to be expelled now!”
Not caring about any of this, Jordan turned and called Alexander while reminding to be faster after a short conversation. “Also, bring a new set of clothes for Tina.”
“Okay.”
Through this short reply, one could already hear Jordan’s unexposed anger. Hanging up, Alexander seemed to have an almost unnoticeable smirk.
