Chapter 149 Children Could Cook
Jazmine was annoyed with Yoselin. Yoselin didn’t behave herself at all. Was there anything good to her by bullying a five–year child? She was going too far.
Originally, Jazmine didn’t want to have a conflict with Yoselin in front of Cosima, but now Jazmine wouldn’t care about it. She glared coldly at Yoselin and said, “Ms. Larsen, I want to ask you. Why do you think that a child can’t cook? There are many things that a child can do. It’s just that you don’t know.”
How could Yoselin show the white feather? In front of Cosima, as long as Yoselin could beat Jazmine down, Jazmine would be finished. “Ms. Gardner, I’m not the only one who thinks this way. You can ask everyone here. Have they ever seen a five–year–old child cook? We all knew you were lying. You took the five–year–old children away from the school and didn’t tell their parents. It’s wrong from the beginning. Now, you are making up lies to cover up your mistake. I suspect whether you have the qualifications as a teacher.”
This was Yoselin’s purpose.
She wanted to cause trouble for Jazmine. Didn’t Jazmine want to be a teacher? Yoselin made Jazmine notorious so that Jazmine would not be hired no matter where she went. Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
Jazmine knew it clearly, but she didn’t get nervous.
On the other side, the children were anxious, especially Alice.
Lunchtime in Jazmine’s home was the most comfortable time she had felt since she was born. Alice used to wonder why no one liked her and why she should exist in this world.
During the time she was cooking with Nina. She felt great satisfaction.
It turned out that there were so many beautiful and surprising things in the world.
If Jazmine was misunderstood by everyone because of her, Alice would be very sad and feel sorry for Nina.
Therefore, Alice hurriedly raised her head and said to everyone, “Who said that I can’t cook? I can. I learned it in Ms. Gardner’s house this morning.”
Cosima was shocked.
Her child used to keep her head down and refuse to speak, but now she refuted loudly.
From an unknown time, Cosima had lost confidence in Alice, feeling that Alice was terrible. Alice was born into a powerful family but she was too cowardly. Cosima was disappointed, and so was her husband. Therefore, the couple did not pay much attention to Alice.
As time went on, they already believed that Alice was mediocre. Even inside, they had admitted the saying
that Alice was mentally disabled.
However, at this moment, Cosima saw the courage of Alice. Cosima’s heart was greatly impacted.
Yoselin was also shocked after being refuted by Alice. She did not expect that in just one morning, this self- shut Alice would have the courage to refute her for defending Jazmine.
Suddenly, Yoselin was furious and could not help but glare at Alice. “Alice, children can’t lie. If I ask you to cook in front of everyone but you can’t do it, you are lying.”
Cosima was disgusted with Yoselin’s behavior of threatening her child. She retorted, “Ms. Larsen, do you think that I don’t participate in the parent–teacher interaction so I don’t care about everything?”
Cosima was unhappy. Yoselin sensed this message, which shocked her a lot, and cold sweat covered her back.
Yoselin discovered that she shouldn’t have behaved so rudely and offended Cosima. She had wanted to rope in Cosima, but now it nearly crushed. Yoselin quickly smiled apologetically, “Mrs. Tudor, you misunderstood. I just think that the child is so young that she would be easily deceived by others. I don’t mean to bully her.”
“How can my child be used for no reason?”
Jazmine couldn’t bear to see these people discussing the child. Didn’t they see that Alice was nervous? Alice was trembling all the time.
But on second thought, this should be also a good opportunity. If Alice could prove her ability in front of everyone, she would be much more confident.
Thinking of this, Jazmine said again, “You are all adults. Why don’t you praise the child? Instead, you keep suspecting whether Alice can do it. Besides, you haven’t seen it yet. How do you know she can’t?”
Yoselin was waiting for this.
She quickly echoed, “That’s right. You’ve been saying that Alice can cook. Since you think she can, why don’t we make a bet?”
“Why not? I’m just thinking, if you lose, wouldn’t it be too difficult for you to apologize to Alice?” Jazmine
asked.
What was difficult about apologizing to Alice? The problem was that Jazmine had such a confident look, which made Yoselin extremely disgusted.
Yoselin nodded and said, “Not at all. Then, if you lose, I think you should leave this school. A teacher who lied and took children away from the school without telling anyone is too dangerous.”
Other parents also agreed with Yoselin’s request.
Even Cosima was hesitating.
On one hand, she disliked Jazmine taking Alice away and disliked it when Alice was cold to her but smiled at Jazmine. On the other hand, Cosima hoped that what Jazmine said was true. Then Alice could become a
normal child.
After weighing the pros and cons, Jazmine felt that it was necessary to give it a chance to Jazmine.
Compared with chasing away Jazmine, Cosima hoped that Alice became a normal child.
Jazmine walked to Alice and squatted down. She looked into Alice’s eyes and asked, “Alice, are you willing to accept this challenge? Make a meal for your mother.”
Alice subconsciously looked at her mother.
She had not looked at Cosima for a long time. Not only because she was afraid, but also because of many other factors.
But regardless of it, deep in her heart, Alice hoped to be close to Cosima. The interactions between Nina and Jazmine made her envious.
At this time, Cosima saw Alice’s eyes.
She was surprised by the way Jazmine talked to Alice. She was touched. Cosima could not help but think. If she squatted in front of Alice like Jazmine, would she be able to see Alice’s expression clearly?
Just when Cosima was lost in thought, she heard Alice say in a very firm tone, “I can give it a try, but the cooker in our school is too big. I can’t use it.”
Jazmine was surprised. “Oh my God, Alice, you remember this detail. This is not a problem. Ms. Boone will solve it. Right, Ms. Boone?”
The headmaster, Valerie, who had just rushed over, was panting. She did not know what Jazmine was asking and replied, “Yes, I will solve it.”
