Kevan, too, received a call from Violet at work and found out about the matter between the two kids.
Unlike Molet’s hesitation, he did not need to think too deeply into things to know that this altercation
was caused by Bethany.
Although he had not met Bethany all that much during these past few years, he knew her better than
Violet, who spent a lot of her time with the kid. At Violet’s request and urging, he rushed to the hospital
and saw Bethany walling non-stop on the hospital bed. Her right arm was bound in bandages, likely the
“scalded by hot water wound that Violet was talking about.
Violet and the nanny specifically hired to take care of Bethany were in the ward. However, no amount

She was afraid of him.

hated noisy kids, especially kids like Bethany, who was not the least bit adorable when crying.
The nanny moved away, and Kevan sat on the edge of the bed.
“What happened?” he asked Bethany, whose lips were trembling as she turned a pleading gaze toward
Violel.
Violet criticized him, saying. “Be gentler to Bethany.”

Kevan tumed back to Bethany and asked again, “What happened? When he saw that she was still
staring at Violet, his voice became colder at once. “Speak up.”
Sticking her lips out in a pout, Bethany nearly cried again. But as she was afraid of Kevan, she forced

However, Bethany’s sins would be paid for by her parents.
Violet called Kevan out of the ward.
