Chapter 313
After getting off, Vivian said, "I'll go alone. That parent is probably more sensitive. I'm afraid he'll overthink and cause unnecessary misunderstandings if I bring a friend over." Grace nodded. "Alright, you go in first. I'll come in later and find a place to sit down."
"Yeah."
Walking into the restaurant, Vivian made a call to the parent. She then saw a burly man not far ahead pick up the phone with a toothpick in his mouth.
When he saw Vivian at the door, he was stunned for a moment and his eyes
widened slightly.
Vivian hung up the phone and walked over. She asked, "Are you Bradley's father?"
That parent had never seen her before. Today was the first time he met Vivian in person. Upon seeing her beauty, his face immediately lit up with a smile, totally devoid of his anger on the phone. "Are you Ms. Vivian?"
Vivian felt uneasy under his smile and nodded. "Yes, I am. Please have a seat."
However, the parent did not sit down. Instead, he warmly reached out both hands and grasped hers. "Hi, Ms. Vivian. This should be the first time we met. Previously, Bradley's mother was the one who brought him for registration. I'm busy with work and don't have time to care about his matters."
Vivian looked at her hand and instinctively flinched. Her movement was slight to maintain politeness, but the parent tightened his grip slightly.
When Grace walked in, she saw the scene. It was obvious that the man was taking advantage of Vivian. Enduring the disgust, Vivian smiled and said, "Please have a seat. Let's talk it out if there are any issues." She forcefully pulled out her hand.
The
parent sat
down in front of her and stared at her with his face full of smiles.
Vivian took a sip of water and initiated to ask, "How was Bradley bullied lately?"
The parent smiled awkwardly. "Lately, he's been getting beaten up by a classmate. He had a big bruise on his shoulder when he came home yesterday, and he also doesn't seem as lively as before.

Vivian pursed her lips and asked, "Did Bradley tell you which classmate?"
""His name is Lucas Walton."
Vivian was silent for a while. Lucas was the sports committee member of the class. He was physically fit and tall. If any student in the class got into a fight with him, the outcome for the other student would not be favorable.

What kind of person was Bradley? Although his father was burly, he was a picky eater with yellowish hair and relatively small and thin build.
However, although he had a small and thin build, he liked to cause trouble.
He particularly liked to bully those who were smaller than him. He was not really bad but just wanted to cause trouble, and

typical of those who bully the weak and fear the strong.
Vivian thought for a moment and said, "Mr. Martyn, during this period, children are going through a rebellious phase, so the likelihood of fighting is indeed higher. Of course, as a teacher, I will definitely emphasize this issue more in future guidance and supervision. "In fact, I know Bradley quite well. He's quite mischievous and indeed often gets into conflicts with his classmates. However, these are actually harmless. I'll guide Lucas this time, and I hope you can also talk to Bradley when you get home."
