Chapter 1013
Rosalie looked up and saw a man and a woman walking in with a little boy about the same height as Aiden. The wound on the child’s exposed head was obviously much lighter than that of Aiden’s. Compared to them, Aiden was the one who should go to the infirmary.
It was the man who spoke before. At that moment, the man looked at Rosalie arrogantly and disdainfully while the woman beside him said, “You want to use the law to suppress us? Fine. I’ll call our lawyer here to see who’s in the right.”
The homeroom teacher hurried forward and bootlicked the couple in a flattering manner.
And the little boy was still making a face at Aiden, looking completely arrogant.
Aiden clenched his hands tighter, his little face turning red.
Lillian was furious and immediately said, “Okay. It’s better to go to court. Let’s see who’s in the right. Aiden’s hearing aid is gone. We’re not planning to let this matter slide!”
“What? Do you still want to pin the blame for him losing his hearing aid on us?” the other party said. “It was Aiden who deliberately beat my son. My son kindly helped pick up the hearing aid, and yet he ended up getting beaten. Now, he’s not only not getting the apology he deserves, but he’s also getting criticized in this manner. Humph! I heard Aiden’s mother was imprisoned. It seems that she is lawless. Her son sure resembles her!”
Amelia’s face suddenly turned pale after she heard that.
Although Aiden couldn’t hear at that moment, he was able to tell what the others were saying by observing the movements of their lips. He immediately grew furious and wanted to rush forward. If Amelia hadn’t stopped her son, Aiden would have rushed over.
Rosalie turned to Aiden and said, “Aiden, let me ask you. What exactly happened? If it is really you who took the initiative to fight, then I’ll apologize to you. If you didn’t do it and are wronged, I will definitely seek justice for you!”
Aiden stared at Rosalie in front of him blankly. Since he was very young, Rosalie had always helped him. His dream was to become a lawyer like Rosalie so that fewer people like his mother would be wronged. Now, he was wronged by his classmates and their parents.
But Rosalie was willing to believe him. Taking in Rosalie’s sincere expression, Aiden was certain she would believe him if he were to tell her the truth.
He thought, “Rosalie is a lawyer. She can help me seek justice. However, if Mommy learns the truth, will she become more upset?”
Aiden hesitated.
The couple scoffed. “You’re expecting him to tell you something when a deaf kid like him has lost his hearing aid? It seems the kid taught by someone who has been imprisoned isn’t all that bright!”
“What are you talking about? What do you mean by imprisoned? It was a misjudgment of the court. If you speak like this, I can sue you for defamation!” Lillian snapped.
“What defamation? Didn’t she go to jail before? Even if the court misjudged her, it was her own fault. There were too many suspicious points that made the court misjudge her. Otherwise, why didn’t the court misjudge others?” the other party retorted.
Hearing that, Lillian was so angry that she almost rolled up her sleeves, prepared to fight.
your
Rosalie stopped Lillian and looked at Aiden again. “Aiden, do you really want to be wronged and let mommy bear the blame with you? You’re still a child, so you can’t bear so many responsibilities yet, but we can help you.”
Amelia also communicated with her son in sign language, asking him to tell the truth.
Aiden finally told Rosalie in sign language that the other kid deliberately bumped into him and took his. cochlear implant while he fell down. Then, the kid wanted to crush his cochlear implant, so he fought with the kid to take back his cochlear implant.
“Do they often do this to you?” Rosalie asked.
Aiden nodded.
“Why? “What’s the reason?” Rosalie asked.
Aiden continued to use sign language to communicate. After Rosalie looked at it, she couldn’t help but feel a lump in her throat. Amelia suddenly hugged her son and cried, “I’m sorry! I’m sorry!”
Lillian didn’t know much about sign language. She completely didn’t understand what Aiden was saying in sign language just now, so she could only ask Rosalie anxiously, “What is Aiden talking about? Why is Amelia crying like that?”
Rosalie said in a solemn tone, “Aiden said that the children who fought with him today often bullied him in class. They always said that his mother had been in jail and he was disabled, so he didn’t deserve to stay in the same classroom with them.”
Lillian’s eyes widened after she heard that. She thought, “This is unbelievable. I can’t believe that
third-grade elementary school students like them are behaving in this manner. I’ve always assumed kids at this age are innocent, but now… Because Amelia was once framed and imprisoned and Aiden is deaf, so Aiden deserves to be discriminated against in this manner?”
At that moment, Lillian’s phone rang. When she picked up the phone and heard Callum’s voice coming from the other end of the line, she immediately sobbed, “Callum…”
Callum, on the other end of his phone, heard Lillian crying and immediately said, “Lillian, what’s wrong? What happened?”
But for a moment, Lillian didn’t know how to explain the whole thing to him. So, Callum could only ask more directly, “Where are you now? I’ll go over!”
“I’m in the administrative office at Aiden’s school,” Lillian said.
Callum knew where Aiden’s school was. After all, it was right next to the Amelia concession stand.
So, Callum hurriedly ended the call. Meanwhile, after Lillian finished the call, the couple immediately mocked, “What? Are you calling for reinforcement? It’s useless even if you do that. Speaking of which, the disabled should go to a school for the disabled. Otherwise, others may think lowly of this school, assuming it’s a school for the disabled!”
Rosalie’s face darkened. “Sir, mind your manners. You are suspected of discrimination now!”
“What? I donated a lot of money to the school every year. Don’t I have the right to think that some students are not suitable for this school?” the man said arrogantly.
The woman next to him also said to the teacher, “I don’t want to see any more disabled students in the same classroom as my son. If your school insists on letting this child attend school, we will not donate money to the school this year. Anyway, I don’t think many parents would prefer their children sharing the same classroom as a disabled kid like him.”
