Billionaire's Regret Finding Her (Caitlin and Sebastian) novel Chapter 46

Chapter 46

Caitlin had lost all trust in these people. After all, Howard had attended this school for some time, and it was clear they had already formed fired attitudes and ways of treating him.

Sometimes, emotional neglect was far more destructive than physical punishment. It could shatter the pure, fragile heart of a child.

Before long, Quincy and Rowan returned, bringing Bruce and three other children with them.

Caitlin smiled at the children, taking a few adorable plush toys out of her bag. “Are you all Howard’s classmates? I have three little gifts here. I’ll give them to whoever tells the truth. Can you tell me why Howard was sitting on the little toilet in the corner today?”

The three children were instantly excited, eager to raise their hands and answer.

One little girl spoke first. “It’s because the teacher wouldn’t let him join the class.”

Hearing this, Valeria broke out in a cold sweat, wishing she could stop the children from speaking.

“Why not?” Caitlin continued.

“Valeria told Howard to take a nap, but he didn’t listen, so she got mad and made him sit on the toilet,” another boy answered.

The last little girl quickly added, “Valeria also said Howard is a mute who can’t sing, so he wasn’t allowed to sing with us.”

Hearing these answers was like a knife stabbing Caitlin’s heart. The pain was unbearable.

Her son’s suffering wasn’t just from his classmates–it came from the teacher too. How horrifying and hateful was this?

Parents entrust their children to schools and teachers, hoping they will educate and care for them, not subject them to this kind of emotional abuse.

How could they?

“You three are very honest. These gifts are for you. Go back to class now!” Caitlin handed out the toys and watched the children leave. Then she turned to Bruce.

“Howard, tell me, are the things your classmates said true?” Caitlin asked gently.

Bruce nodded.

“You all heard that, didn’t you? Children are the most truthful. I believe what they said!” Caitlin’s expression turned icy as she looked at Valeria.

“Has Valeria been married?” she asked Rowan.

“Yes.”

“Does she have children?”

“She does…”

Valeria’s head dropped further in shame, unable to meet Caitlin’s eyes.

“If you have children, don’t you understand how much a child means to their family and parents?

“How would you feel if your child was isolated and made to sit on a toilet for nearly an hour at school?

“Do you also think our Howard is mute and mentally deficient? Is that it?” Caitlin’s voice trembled with fury, her eyes welling up with tears.

“I… I’m sorry…” Valeria stammered, bowing her head in shame.

“I don’t need your apology!” Callin shouted before raising her hand and slapping Valeria hard across the face–once, twice three, four times.

“You think 1 like hitting people? Now you know how it feels! This is the consequence of abusing Howard!” Caitlin glared at her.

Valeria’s cheeks swelled red and bruised, tears streaming down her face as she cried. She dared not fight back.

Could a child thrive in such an environment?

“Yes, it is indeed a failure of your school,” Caitlin retorted. “Your teaching staff’s professionalism needs to be reassessed. All teachers must undergo comprehensive evaluations!

“As for Valeria and the two other teachers in Howard’s class, they are to be fired immediately. I will report them to the education authorities and have

“It’s too late now! Do you think you can undo the harm you’ve caused our Howard?” Caitlin kicked her aside without mercy. She turned to Rowan and said coldly, “Rowan, as of today, Howard is officially withdrawn from your school. A school like this doesn’t deserve the title of ‘elite‘–and it certainly
