Chapter 186: Perhaps, that will keep you alive.
[Bennet Mansion]
Standing in the great hall, Charles and Haines engaged in talk while Allison was seated on the couch.
"Well, let him be." Charles massaged his nape. "It’s a good thing this is the only thing I did after what their family did to my son."
Haines sighed and shrugged. When his eyes fell on Allison, his face twitched. "Allison, don’t tell me you’re not appeased with this yet?"
"How could I feel appeased?" Allison huffed. "Slater suffered for a year and cutting them off feels lacking."
"Well, it can’t be helped." Charles threw himself beside his wife. "Even I don’t feel satisfied, but we have to take it slowly. Otherwise, our company will just look like we’re bullies."
"We still have to think of the company’s reputation," Haines nodded, and the three of them sighed in unison.
Deep in their hearts, they knew they still had to report the bullying incident to the headmaster. Allison even wants to sue the school for it. However, they wanted to respect Slater’s request. No matter how wrong it felt, Slater didn’t want to make it a big deal anymore.
They didn’t want to put Slater in the spotlight again and make him relive the nightmare he endured and survived.
"Anyway, are you leaving with Penny today?" Haines changed the subject.
"Yes. She wants to visit Grace and her mother. I heard Grace’s mother woke up last night." Charles grinned happily. "I’m so glad she’s fine."
"I heard what happened," Haines remarked, giving Charles a knowing look. "That’s dangerous."
