Chapter 1987

Violet turned pale at that.

Her husband, Jaeden, wanted to strangle her at that moment and scold her for whatever she did.

Yet, Jaeden and Violet still did not know who Nathan was, such that he demanded respect from even a man like Ya a cob.

Despite so, they were scared by how furious Yaacob seemed. As such, they could only put their ego aside and apologize to Nathan.

Jaeden spoke first, "Mr. Cross, my wife was out of the line, and for that, I sincerely apologize for her behavior."

Following that, Violet lowered her head and rolled her eyes before she casually remarked, "I was wrong. Sorry." Sensing her insincerity, Nathan demanded, "You need to apologize to my wife as well for slandering her." Without a choice, Violet spat, "Sorry!"

In response, Penny calmly advised, "I hope that you would not taint anyone's name anymore. Besides, you shouldn't say stuff like that in front of your child. You should set a good example."

Jaeden and Violet acknowledged it. Although it was hard to tell if Jaeden was sincere, it was clear that Violet only did it because Yaacob forced her. Not long after, Queenie and Marc were made to own up to their mistakes and apologize to each other in front of Nathan and the teachers.

Thinking that everything was over, Violet impatiently commented, "Are you happy now?

Can we leave?"

With that, Nathan could obviously tell that she didn't mean it when she apologized earlier.

Hence, Nathan's face darkened, and he warned, "Do you think you think you can erase your mistakes with one apology? If so, we don't need laws and jails in place anymore."

Those words made Violet widen her eyes as she frustratedly rebutted, "What did you say? We already said sorry, so what more do you want from us?"

Nathan challenged, "Is your apology

sincere? If Director Donnovan did not make you do it, would you still apologize to us? Furthermore, if I did not cathy Director Donnovan, and was any other parent, I'm afraid I would be on the losing end today."

Violet's silence meant that she admitted to it.

Nevertheless, Nathan continued with a straight fac

"Every other day, you can humiliate those who are weaker than you But once you meet someone of a higher status, you'd only apologize to get yourself off the hook. Do you really think that things would be so easy?"

With a flushed face, Violet screeched, "You-!"

But before she could say anything else, Jaeden clenched his fists and yelled, "Mr. Cross, what more do you want from us?"

"I have a simple request - that there must be a punishment after your apology," Nathan calmly stated.

Then, he pointed to Violet and

continued, "Previously, she

suggested for my family to kneel at the school field and publicly apologize. Well, my request is even simpler. I don't need you to kneel. You only have to wear an apology sign around your neck and stand under the flag pole for half a day."

What?

Jaeden was livid to hear that as it would be utter humiliation for them.

With similar sentiments, Violet hysterically yelped, "You want us to stand under the flag pole?"

Nathan gave them an indifferent look. "Compared to your earlier suggestion to kneel, I'm now simply allowing you to stand there instead. That is considered a kind act on my part. If you don't wish to accept the punishment, I will not force you.”

As Nathan finished, Yaacob sounded out, "Jaeden, if both of you are not Willing to accept the punishment, I will have to reconsider if Jaeden is suitable in this line of work."
