He remarked, “Destinee, it seems you prefer Dulcie.


    You’ve left the principal with no hope at all.


    ”


    Arms crossed, Destinee responded gravely, her demeanor surprisingly mature, “It’s not about that, Kyson.


    Despite my age, I’m observant enough.


    Miss Burton truly cares for you.


    When we were in the infirmary, the principal noticed your handsome features and affluent status.


    That’s why she favors you.


    She and Phillis are in the same category.


    Your wealth and appearance are what captivates them, and they’re simply snobbish.


    I don’t appreciate their demeanor.


    ”


    Kyson was taken aback by her eloquence and precision in describing those women.


    Despite being a young girl, she disyed remarkable intelligence and maturity.


    Destinee looked outside the window to observe the scenery outside.


    “Are we heading home?”


    “Yes.


    ”


    “But I’m not ready to go home yet.


    Can we visit theb instead? Colby should still be receiving his treatment.


    I want to be there with him.


    ”


    Kyson’s expression turned rigid.


    Suddenly, he recalled Destinee’s usation in kindergarten that Myron had called Colby rubbish.


    He sensed herpassion toward Colby.


    Had she ever med him in her heart?


    What actions could he take to repay the debt he owed Colby?


    Without saying a word, Kyson redirected the car toward theb.


    Unaware of his expression, Destinee was preupied with strategizing how to conceal her mistake at the kindergarten.


    Her brow furrowed with concentration, almost wrinkling her face.All content ? N/.?vel/Dr/ama.Org.


    Concerned, she leaned toward Kyson, who steered with his left hand, and sped his right.


    “Can you promise not to divulge what happened today? Don’t tell Daddy! Please! Daddy can be so intimidating.


    If he finds out, he’ll scold me…”


    She pouted, her frustration evident toward Nathan.


    “He cautioned mest time.


    Advised against fighting or bullying other children.


    Instead, he expects me to emte Mommy’s quiet elegance.


    Daddy is so contradictory.


    He always uses violence to solve cases yet he wants me to behave.


    How absurd!”


    With her hands on her hips, she voiced herints.


    Kyson stifled a chuckle, shaking his head in amusement.


    “He’s just trying to protect you.


    He resorts to violence only when facing criminals.


    In our society, the one who initiates violence is at fault.


    Moreover, getting into fights can leave you vulnerable to ckmail.


    Destinee, you did slip up today.


    ”


    Despite her disdain for Myron, she should have refrained from fighting him in public, being seen by others.


    Yet, given her tender age, he refrained from saying these words, mindful of the potential impact on her mental development.


    Destinee sobbed.


    Indeed, she was acutely aware of her mistake, further prompting her reluctance to disclose it to Nathan.


    She pursed her lips and nervously twirled the fabric of her clothing between her fingers.


    “Myron spoke ill of Colby.


    I couldn’t resist defending him.
