Matt's mother supported her husband. "Yes!"
Corinne smirked and turned to the principal. "We should review the surveillance footage before coming to a decision. May I know where I can access that footage?"
The principal glanced embarrassedly at Corinne, and then at Matt's parents. "I..."
Matt's father snorted. "Just show us the surveillance footage, then! I'm appalled at her claims that our children were fighting when her boy was completely unharmed. Let's see if she'll come up with some other excuse after watching the footage."
Seeing as both sides had agreed to check the surveillance footage, he escorted them to the surveillance room together.
Matt had been crying anxiously in his mother's arms, and he timidly reached out to tug at the hem of his father's clothes when he heard that his father was going to see the surveillance recordings.
Thinking that Matt was still traumatized by what happened, the man patted his son's head and comforted him, "Don't be afraid, Matt. We'll get justice for you. I'll make sure that bully will kneel to you and say sorry!"
He took Matt from his wife's embrace and strode to the surveillance room with the principal. Meanwhile, his wife followed right behind him.
The principal nodded and asked Matt's parents to sit in front of the monitor. He did not even bother to show Corinne the courtesy of inviting her to watch the video. With a click of a button, the video began to play.
A teacher was initially present inside the classroom, but the teacher went out to investigate a noise she heard outside. After that, the teacher returned to the classroom and instructed Joey to come to the front row and sit on a small chair to face the entire class. The teacher told the class she had to step out for a while, and she tasked Joey with reading a storybook to the class while she was out. The children all agreed obediently.
With the classroom door securely closed, the teacher left and Joey opened the storybook to begin reading. After barely one paragraph in, a large boy in the last row left his seat and snatched a butterfly hairpin from the head of a little girl in the front row. The little girl's hair was disheveled, and she burst into tears as she demanded the boy to return the hairpin.

The readers' comments on the novel: The Day I Kissed An Older Man
This book is a good book, but it’s too short. I hope it has a part two👍🏾...
This book is getting boring now. I loved Jeremy, Corinne, Sonny and Lucas. The story needs to end. or bring back more of Jeremy, etc....
I haven't skipped any chapter at all. Though the story is good, it keeps going back to base one. I think this has no ending at all and somehow after reading more than 2500 chapters it's kinda tiring already. They have drained all the thrills....
Great writing! I almost cried when Helen hit Melody! So sad! 😭 can’t wait to see how the relationship with her and Lucas develops though. So tired of the repetitive problems with different people....
Yikes my body tenses so much, my moods change as the scenes change. It leaves me wanting to continue reading....
my heart breaks for melody, so many ups and downs, i shed a few tears when lucas walked by melody carrying thalia, and melody stayed quiet while watching them leave. i find myself getting into character as if im one. i dont remember ever feeling like that in any other books. im thankful the 10 chapters/day. waiting for the next 10...
We have updated progress from 7 chapters/day to 10 chapters/day.<3...
i love grandma Beatrice, there needs to me more people like her in the world straight forward and to the point, no beating around the bush and worrying about offending anyone, why pretend to be someone your not....
looking forward to more chapters, The same thing is happening to Melody as what happened to Luna, if Luna was back maybe she would set Lucas straight, can't wait to see how Lucas handles the situations that will arrive. Poor Melody....
ya Lucas pay more attention to Melody lets see what happens waiting for more chapters thanks...
