Please Take Me Home Daddy (by Mona Surrey) novel Chapter 187

Laura skillfully ran to the third floor, peeking out into the hallway, only to see a line of students from Class One in sixth grade standing there.

They looked unhappy, discussing with annoyance. “Leroy’s parents won’t listen to us at all. They’re completely biased towards Leroy.”

“Yeah, Leroy clearly didn’t have any real issues. He pretended to faint and staged the whole thing. He just had a nosebleed, but he insisted he was dying. Why does our school have people like this?” the other pupil echoed.

As they were discussing, the homeroom teacher walked out of the office with a serious expression. “All students, back to your classrooms, no more noise, no spreading rumors, go.”

The students grumbled indignantly, but they couldn’t say much more. They descended the stairs from the other side of the hallway.

Laura sneakily approached the principal’s office door, hearing a familiar female voice from inside. “Everett indiscriminately beat up my adopted child. Now this child has suffered serious physical and emotional trauma. Everett must be expelled.”

Laura bit her lip, feeling anxious.

Favian’s cold voice came from the inside, “It was Leroy who first laid hands on Laura, and he even left bruises all over her arms. Everett, as her brother, was justified in protecting his sister. He can write a self–criticism, but expulsion is out of the

question. On the contrary, Leroy is suspected of child abuse, even threatening Laura’s eyes with a whisk. If Everett is to be

expelled, Leroy must also be expelled with a major demerit.”

Carol smirked coldly. “Favian, you want to drive away both of these children today, and you even want to give them severe punishments. It seems both incidents are related to Laura. Don’t you think you’re being unfair?”

Favian retorted, “If parents feel that I am unfair, they should discipline their own children, instead of letting them behave like a pack of trained dogs and bite people directly.”

Carol didn’t back down, “Leroy claims he was just touching Laura, not pinching her. The surveillance footage only shows their hands and arms making contact, with no direct evidence that Laura’s arms were bruised by him. She’s just lying. Unless you provide direct evidence that Leroy laid hands on her, I’ll sue the school and prevent Leroy from being expelled.”

Favian remained silent for a long time, seemingly pondering.

Laura furrowed her brows.

Henry glanced through the crack in the door and sniffed, “Tsk, I’ve long known that Everett’s grandmother has no affection for them, but I never expected her to be so heartless. She’d rather let her own biological grandson be expelled than her adopted son. It’s ridiculous.

Others were anxious. “But if we can’t find direct evidence to prove that Leroy is lying, even if Lala and her classmates try to prove it, it won’t work. Everett will still be expelled.”

Laura’s brain was working quickly, and she looked at Henry. “Do you know where Everett is being kept?”

Henry said, “If nothing goes wrong, he should be in the counseling room.”

Laura turned her head and saw the counseling room next to the principal’s office, so she immediately walked in.

Everett was lying on the bed. When he heard the door open, he grabbed a pillow and threw it towards the door, saying, “Don’t expect me to apologize to Leroy.”

Laura reacted quickly, squatting down to dodge.

Henry, who was behind her, was hit in the face by the pillow.

When Everett saw them, his anger suddenly disappeared, and he said awkwardly, “Why are you here?”

Laura ran up to him with concern, carefully examining him, “Are you okay, Everett? I heard you’re going to be expelled.”

Everett hesitated for a moment before lying down on the bed, not in a good mood. “So what? Am I afraid of him?”

Laura felt uneasy, “But you’re going to be expelled for helping me. I don’t want you to be expelled… You clearly saved me; you should be rewarded.”

Everett choked up, turning his head to look at her.

Her eyes were filled with sincerity.

His heart trembled, and he turned his head away in anger. “The surveillance footage is unclear, and there’s no direct evidence to prove that Leroy laid a hand on you. I’ll definitely be expelled. But I don’t care. What do you care about?”

Laura felt regretful, “Of course, I care. You got hurt because you were protecting me. I can’t let you get hurt.”

Everett was confused. “I’m not hurt.”

Laura said, “You’re hurt inside.”

Everett was even more puzzled. “I’m not hurt inside either.”

Laura was anxious, “But my heart is hurt. I feel sorry for you.”

After saying that, the room fell silent.

Several teenagers looked at her in astonishment.

Everett sat up suddenly, dumbfounded. “What did you say?”

Laura bit her lip, tears welling up in her eyes, looking pitiful. “I didn’t do anything wrong, but Leroy saw me and called me a stinky bug.

“He hit my hand with the back of a knife, he even pinched me, and he said he wanted to blind me.”

She wiped her face, crying, “Although I’m brave, I’m really scared of him blinding me. I don’t want to be blind.

“So, you saved me. I am very grateful to you.”

Tears welled up in Laura’s eyes, unwillingly shaking her head, “You’re clearly a good person, why are you being expelled? It’s unfair. I want to protect you.”

Everett listened blankly, feeling his blood boiling all over his body.

‘This guy…

‘He’s gone too far!

‘Is she bound by a system or something.’

He awkwardly bit his lip, pretending to reject her. “How can you protect me? You’re just a kid.”

Laura was stunned and said firmly, “It’s true that I’m just a kid, but I know that as long as there’s evidence of him hurting me, it can prove your innocence, and I’ll find it.”

With that, she turned and rushed toward the door, then turned back to Everett with determination.

“Wait for me, brother, this time, I’ll save you,” Laura said.

Everett was confused. ‘What could she possibly do to save me?

‘Isn’t she still a child?‘

Laura dashed into the corridor, coincidentally encountering Leroy, who was being supported by two people.

Beside him were a young girl and a young boy, not much older than Leroy. When they saw her, they immediately looked hostile. “Laura? How dare you show up in front of my brother?”

She rolled her eyes and ran to the stairs to face them, “Leroy, you’re Elaine’s brother, right?”

Everett and Henry peeked out from the counseling room, looking puzzled at her.

Leroy was sandwiched between the two, looking a bit embarrassed, but his gaze remained fierce. “So what?”

Laura suddenly bowed to him, hands clasped in front of her, and spoke every word firmly, “Your sister is the most

worthless, trashiest, worst girl I’ve ever seen, there’s no girl worse than her in the whole world. So, she deserves to be expelled.”

Leroy’s breath caught, raising his hand to push her. “What did you say?”

Laura was pushed by him and suddenly fell to the ground, her body slipping rhythmically down the stairs. “Ahhh!”

Everett ran to the staircase, absurdly looking at Laura.

Favian and Carol also came out of the office. “What’s going on?”

Leroy and his siblings were even more bewildered.

On the rest platform of the stairs, Laura was sitting on the ground awkwardly with her hair messed up. She seemed to be

confused.

She looked up at Favian, and her grievance gradually turned into tears, one after another falling onto her cheeks.

Xander, Jasper, and Zayn happened to arrive at the staircase platform in a hurry.

3A)

Laura was brewing her emotions, unaware that three more people had joined her side, then suddenly, she raised her head

and cried out.

“Wah. Leroy wants to kill me. I am going to tell Mommy. Wah.”

Zayn’s face suddenly darkened, and he looked up at Leroy.

Jasper also slowly raised his head and looked up the stairs.

Xander pushed up his glasses and glanced over coldly.

Leroy couldn’t believe it, “No, you intentionally slid down. You’re trying to scam me. And you insulted my sister to provoke

me.”

Laura cried out, “No, I was begging you.”

She pointed her chubby finger at the surveillance camera. “I even bowed and apologized to you, and you still pushed me. If you don’t believe me, watch the surveillance footage.”

Leroy’s mind buzzed as he recalled everything that just happened.

Laura deliberately provoked him in a begging posture.

However…

The surveillance footage had no sound, so it couldn’t hear what Laura said.

Therefore, the surveillance could only see him pushing the bowing Laura.

She first provoked him, then made herself slip on the stairs, framing him.

Henry suddenly figured it out, almost exposing his voice, he grabbed the stunned Everett and muttered excitedly, “Everett, Lala has just created evidence for you. We’re going to win this round. Leroy has laid a hand on Laura again; he won’t be able to justify himself this time.”

Everett was dumbfounded and had not reacted. ‘We’re going to win?

‘Laura just said she would save me, and now she made it?‘

Laura on the platform cried her eyes out.

Suddenly, she looked at Everett with tears in her eyes and winked playfully.

Everett was confused.

Laura continued to cry and glanced at Leroy’s pale face. ‘Acting innocent, huh?

‘But how could you outdo me in acting?

‘I’m an actress.‘

But when she was complacent, Zayn suddenly showed up out of nowhere and rolled up his sleeves to rush towards Leroy.

“You are the one who bullied Laura, aren’t you?”

Laura was left dumbfounded.
