Chapter: 1305
The boy hesitated, stammering, "I... I didn't mean to."
"You may not have intended it but what did you do after she fell?"
Sabrina inquired, her tone resolute.
“Come down and offer an apology.”
The boy hesitated momentarily, then slid down the slide's steps and approached Jennie, head lowered.
“I'm sorry, I..."
Before he could complete his apology, a woman abruptly arrived on the scene, yanking the boy behind her. She glared at Sabrina with an intensity that spoke of indignation. In a firm voice, she accused, "What on earth are you doing? How could you bully a child in my absence? You're an adult and your behavior is utterly disgraceful!"
Sabrina found herself taken aback, her eyes traveling up and down the woman's figure before she posed the question, "Are you his parent?"
With a touch of urgency, she continued, "Your timely appearance is rather fortunate. It seems your child has inadvertently sent mine tumbling from the slide. Might I kindly request an apology?"
In response, the woman shot Sabrina a skeptical glance and retorted.
“Why should I take your word for it? There are so many children here."
Sabrina didn't miss a beat and firmly stated, "He's already admitted.
The woman turned to her son, a condescending air in her voice as she remarked, “Well, he's just a child. He might be saying it out of fear."
Sabrina, undeterred, suggested, “If you doubt my word, we can head to the monitoring room and check the surveillance video."
The woman responded with exasperation, "You're being unreasonable.
Even if my child did bump into yours, it was unintentional. Besides, your daughter seems fine. Are you trying to blackmail me?" The woman concluded her argument, leaving Sabrina perplexed.
While the boy was decked out in designer clothing, Sabrina and Jennie were no less well-dressed. The woman's comments seemed unfounded.
Irrespective of their social backgrounds, Sabrina believed that common decency should guide one's actions, especially when it came to acknowledging unintended harm caused to others.
Sabrina realized that reasoning with this woman was a futile endeavor, and there was no hope for resolution in sight.
Swiftly, she retrieved her phone and placed a call to the authorities.
