Chapter 509 I'm Sorry
Quinn hadn't initially realized that Michael was there to pick up the little boy until the child spotted Michael and darted towards him, exclaiming, "They both bullied me!"
Facing this scene, Michael wore a puzzled expression.
As Charlie pointed towards Chloe and Quinn, Michael furrowed his brows and questioned, "What are you talking about?"
"I'm saying this woman pushed me in the cake shop, causing me to fall, and she even insisted on snatching the strawberry cake. The last two pieces were bought by her, knowing well that I wanted the strawberry cake!" Charlie accused. Chloe was taken aback by how the brat twisted the truth upon seeing his family.
Standing up from her chair, Chloe retorted, "You little brat, stop spouting nonsense. There are cameras in the cake shop. If you lie, I'll take you to the police station!"This material belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
Chloe's tone was stern, causing Charlie to hide behind Michael instantly.
With Michael as his backer now, he feared no one else.
"So what? You took my cake, and you made me crash into the glass. It's all your fault, you old witch!" Charlie retorted.
Charlie expected Michael to unhesitatingly take his side, but the next moment, he received a slap from Michael.
"Ow!" he exclaimed, clutching his head. It was the second time today he had injured his head.
He raised his hands to cover his head. This was the second time he had suffered a head injury today.
"What are you doing, Uncle!" Charlie protested, looking at Michael with a face full of grievance.
This revelation left Chloe and Quinn stunned.
Chloe thought, "Uncle?
He's actually Michael's... nephew?
Well... they do bear some resemblance..."
Chloe instinctively touched her belly.
Realizing her thoughts had strayed too far, Chloe quickly reined them back in.
With a cold gaze, Michael instructed Charlie, "Apologize."
Charlie couldn't believe what he had heard. "I won't apologize!"
He thought, "Why should I apologize? It was me who got hurt. I'm even in the hospital. The one who should apologize is that old witch!" "I'll say it again. Apologize," Michael said
His patience was wearing thin, especially in the face of Charlie.
He thought, "If Cathy didn't have something urgent come up today, I wouldn't have to come pick up this little troublemaker.
I wonder if Cathy is out of her mind, willingly taking care of the Swift family's child and having me deal with every issue."
Charlie cautiously watched Michael, genuinely afraid of his uncle. Michael's expressionless face resembled an ancient iceberg. Sensing Charlie's gaze, Michael shot him another cold look.
Charlie shivered all over. Reluctantly, he took small steps towards Chloe.
"Sorry, okay?"
This "okay" was directed at Michael.
However, Michael frowned. "What 'okay'? No apology? Apologize properly. You need their forgiveness."
Chloe thought, "I've never seen Michael be so stern with a child.
But... he seems to have the right mindset when it comes to educating children."
Just as she had that thought, Chloe mentally scolded herself, "How could I think Michael has the right mindset? If he does, then there will be no twisted people in the world!"
Pouting, Charlie stared at Chloe, unable to bring himself to apologize.
Not wanting to push the child too hard, Chloe smiled awkwardly and said, "It's okay if you don't want to apologize, you know!" Charlie's eyes lit up. "Really?"
Chloe nodded with a smile. "Of course it's true. But it just means take you to the police station. It's fine if you don't apologize to me!"
Dealing with bratty kids, Chloe had plenty of tricks up her sleeve.
Charlie was taken aback, genuinely not wanting to end up at the police station. If his parents found out, he
would definitely be in deep,
Under Chloe's coercion, he could only reluctantly hang his head low and mumble, "I'm sorry, I know I was wrong."
"Wrong about what?"
Chloe still had her friendly smile, but it sent a chill down the spines of Michael and Quinn behind her.
"I... I shouldn't have cut in line."
"What else?"
"I shouldn't have called you an old witch."
"And then?"
Chloe couldn't believe she had this much patience, especially in making a child apologize for his actions.
"An... and... Oh! I really don't know anymore. I've already said sorry, can't that be enough?"
Charlie looked at Chloe's expression and couldn't hold back his tears any longer.
