Fine, you know better, the boy thought, finally convinced.

Quinlyn wanted to find him a lawyer to solve the problem professionally. Just as she was looking through her contacts, she received a call from Claude.

Knowing that she was at the hospital, he came right away with Mandy.

“I had a bad feeling when Mandy told me about it, but I didn’t expect it to really happen. Since Mandy has got involved, I’ll handle the lawyer thing,” Claude said.

Mandy saw the woman in the ward through the glass, her eyes slowly turning red.

Quinlyn went over and took Mandy’s hand. “I agreed to give money, too, she whispered, suggesting that she had a responsibility, and they were in this together.

Claude finished the phone call in a few seconds. Seeing that the two children were in low spirits, he patted them on the shoulders and called them aside.

He began, “Mandy, I didn’t bring you here today to blame you. Helping others is a good thing, and you did nothing wrong. You and Quinlyn are both good kids–you can see the suffering of others and have kind hearts.

“But today I want to tell you that sometimes good intentions can lead to bad results. So you have to analyze specific problems.

“The poorer the family is, the more likely it is that giving money will not resolve the conflict but will instead exacerbate it. You have to observe what they really need and then take action.

“If you really don’t understand, just ask the adults. It’s our duty to teach you children.”

Although Claude was a vulgar businessman, he had climbed up from the bottom and knew the world better. He had tried to keep his daughter sheltered. But after a lesson, he now taught her more carefully, hoping that she could be independent.

He continued, “Quinlyn was right–we need a lawyer. What the boy and his mom need is freedom, a clean break from his father’s family’s grip. It’s best to use the law to restrain those vultures.”

Quinlyn blushed a little at the compliment. After all, it wasn’t an idea she came up with on the spot, but one she had been thinking about for two days.

Still, Claude sighed. Every family had its own problems. The kind ones always got trampled on Sometimes, it was family members who could hurt one the most.

Two days later, the boy’s mother finally woke up, and a wave of relief washed over Quinlyn.

Mandy diligently followed up with the lawyer every day, which put a lot of pressure on him. Within weeks, he’d dragged the boy’s dad’s family to court and won. Just like that, the boy and his mother were free.

As for the old woman’s amputated leg, since the surveillance camera didn’t capture it, it was treated as an accident. During the winter break, this little incident served as a lesson.
