Chapter 259 Stigma

• I gulped nervously while Miss Evergreen’s eyes widened with shock at Edward’s harsh and direct comment. I guess in her years of being a teacher, she had never experienced a situation like this with her student’s parents before. One glance at Edward confirmed that he was truly upset and offended by what the teacher had just said. If I don’t try to halt this now, this whole parent-teacher conference will blow up. 
• “Umm…sorry about that. I’m sure that Edward is happy to learn that his children are…very smart…” I replied vaguely as I plastered a diplomatic smile on my face. Very smart…not geniuses. They are just very smart. 
• I grabbed Edward’s hand under the table and squeezed it tightly. I hope he understands how weird and rude his comment was just now. However, Edward didn’t seem to get my message at all or if he did, he didn’t care too much for it. He didn’t look at me or acknowledge my attempt to stop him. His eyes were glued on Miss Evergreen and those were not friendly eyes.
