The Prince Who Cannot Fall In Love & The Missing Heiress

Chapter 10 - I Can Forgive This Brat On One Condition

Ron and Charles Gilbert narrowed their eyes. Now, they were really sure that Nicolae is Altair's father. Their faces were very similar, even their hair was equally long, and both have similar deep blue eyes.

"Sit down, Altair. Mr. Gilbert came here with Charles because of yesterday's fight," Miss Haney explained. She invited Altair to sit beside her.

The teenager seemed laidback when he heard his homeroom teacher's words. He knew he was innocent and didn't feel the need to worry about anything. He knew Nicolae would defend him if he was innocent.

"Are you the father of this brat???" asked Ron Gilbert angrily. His face immediately flushed with anger. "He beat up my son and injured him. I will make sure your son is expelled from school and sent to jail for assault!!"

"What? Are you nuts?" Nicolae asked angrily. "It was one on one, and it was your son who started the fight."

"Charles is the victim here. He was beaten up, and your son was the culprit. I only came here to tell you that I will report your son to the police. This brat has gotten into a lot of fights, but the school brushed it off to protect its reputation..." Ron Gilbert gritted his teeth. "Do you know who I am???"

"Wow, Mr. Gilbert ... please don't be emotional. This is just a fight between boys. We can solve this problem between us, no need to involve the police here," said Miss Haney hastily. "I borrowed the principal's office so we can discuss this matter privately. I beg of you to be cool-headed. There seems to be a misunderstanding here."

"What misunderstanding? Don't you see my son's eyes bruised like this?" Ron Gilbert was getting emotional. He turned to his son. "Charles, you want that bastard to go to jail, right?"

Charles was filled with grudges, and he nodded. "He beat me up, even though I only talked to him nicely. That boy is dangerous. He has beaten up many other boys before. Dad, you can find other witnesses, I'm sure many will be willing to testify."

Altair chuckled impatiently. He was upset because he was accused of being the scoundrel, even though he wasn't the one who started the fight.

"You liar! You didn't even talk to me. I also did nothing wrong to you! You stop me on the schoolyard and wanted to beat me ... but I was too strong for you. Don't be a coward, please!" he said impatiently and tried to stand up to hit Charles, who deliberately puffed out his chest to challenge him.

Fortunately, Nicolae hurriedly grabbed Altair's hand and calmed him down.

"Sssh ... if you lost your temper, then he could really involve the police. If that happened, your father would hear all this," Nicolae whispered immediately into Altair's ear.

He was also upset, but he could still hold himself well. He was the same as Altair, he did not want this problem to reach his brother's ears. He could not imagine what Elios would do if he knew his son was threatened to be sent to jail by a lowly lawyer.

Nicolae was more worried that Altair and Vega's identity in this school would be exposed and they would not be able to live like regular teenagers, like what they both wanted. That's why he kept his cool and not get provoked by the Gilberts.

"Hmm ... how about we just consider this a misunderstanding? Altair can apologize, and we will consider this problem over? Please, Sir ... this is between two teenage boys. There is no need to involve the police. We, the parents, would be deemed unfit to educate our sons if this thing escalates," persuaded Nicolae. He then turned to Altair, "Altair, just apologize to Charles. Let's settle this now."

Altair was clearly at war with himself. He actually didn't want to apologize, but he also understood what Nicolae was thinking. He took a deep breath and finally grunted softly. "I am sorry."

"See ... my son has apologized. Hopefully, Charles and you can accept his apology, and we can all make peace. I'm sure your time is precious and not worth spending on boys' fight." Nicolae looked at the father and son pair in front of him.

"My son has suffered injuries. This must be resolved before the law ..." said Ron Gilbert stubbornly. He was about to take out his cellphone and call the police station when suddenly Charles touched his hand.

"Dad... I can forgive this brat... on one condition," Charles said suddenly.

"What did you say?" asked Ron Gilbert with a glare.

Nicolae and Altair exchanged glances. What did Charles want to stop this unnecessary argument?
