Sweetheart, Do You Still Love Me?

Chapter 742 Side Story: Childhood Sweetheart 2

Damian knew his actions might have seemed intimidating earlier, but he only acted that way because his temper had been triggered. "Alright. I promise never to act like that in front of you again," he offered. Alice simply nodded with a dumbfounded look on her face. She still saw him as her precious elder brother regardless of how Damian was.

"What a good girl. I'll bring you home for a meal tonight," Damian offered. "You can come over to mine," he added. Even though this was just a tiny incident, the effects of it had yet to die down. Caleb Smith, the kid who got beaten up, told his parents about the entire incident after he got home. When his parents heard about how their child had been bullied at school, they were furious. They rushed over to the school and demanded justice for their son.

After multiple questions and searches for evidence, the school concluded that Damian was the one who had beaten Caleb up. Damian was summoned to the principal's office, but he stood there with an indifferent and nonchalant look on his face.

Caleb's face turned pale upon hearing Damian's words. Caleb's parents hadn't expected their son to engage in such behavior. All that they knew was how their son was beaten up—they didn't know that he was beaten up for such reasons. So, Eliza Craker turned around to glare at her own son. "Is he telling the truth? Did you send a love letter to some other girl?"

Caleb nodded bashfully. Eliza sighed when she realized that her son had been the first to spark conflict in this situation. "Well, since Caleb was the one who started this, then… How about this? Since you were the one who injured my son, why don't you just apologize to him, and we call it quits, okay? You don't need to pay for any medical bills, either. We have the money," Eliza offered.
