Wooing My Ex-Wife

Zendaya puffed out her cheeks in anger and pointed at the bandaged Johnnie. “He asked about my twin brother, so I told him about Benny. I even invited him to a playdate at our house next time. However, instead of being appreciative, he called Benny a useless invalid! He can insult me all he wants, but leave my brother alone! Hmph!”

With her hands on her hips and cheeks all rosy and puffy, Zendaya undoubtedly resembled a small, annoyed pufferfish.

“Even though Benny has never attended kindergarten, he’s still way smarter than me! I won’t let anyone bully him!” she added.

Needless to say, Hazel was shocked beyond words.

Wow! Zendaya may be young, but she already knows how to stand up for her brother. What a responsible child! Her family has taught her well…

With that, the principal cast an admiring glance at Charles, unable to take her eyes off his chiseled side profile.

Look how tall, handsome, and rich he is. He’s practically Prince Charming! Oh, if only he were single…

Johnnie’s mother, however, had a grim expression on her face. “So what if Johnnie said something inappropriate? What gives her the right to hit him? I can’t believe she’s already such a brute at this age. I wouldn’t be surprised if she ends up killing someone in the future.”

Charles immediately shot the woman a death glare, causing her to flinch and stop talking, albeit begrudgingly.

By then, Charles was so stern and solemn that the aura around him became frighteningly cold.

How dare they call Benny a useless invalid! Parents who fail to educate their children deserve to be taught a lesson.

The next second, Charles fished out his phone and texted his assistant when no one was looking.

“What now, Ms. Bardot? Not only does Zendaya’s family refuse to compensate, but they’re also unwilling to apologize. It’d be unfair to Johnnie if I let this slide! Tell me, then. How should we resolve this?” Johnnie’s mother snapped as she sat with her arms crossed.

From the looks of it, she was determined to hammer out a favorable dispute resolution before she’d let anyone leave the infirmary.

An apologetic smile crept across Hazel’s face. “There, there. It’s common for children to argue and fight. Since the parents of both kids are here, I’m sure we can resolve this.”

Johnnie’s mother snorted coldly in response.

Charles, on the other hand, remained silent. No matter how much the woman grumbled and scolded, he never said a word.

Ding!

Just then, a message notification from Charles’ phone broke the awkward silence.

Upon unlocking his phone and reading the text, Charles curled his lips into a half smile. Ha! It’s time to retaliate.
