A Lesson Upon hearing Jonathan’s admission, Elliot feared that Nathaniel would scold them, so he immediately pleaded, “I’m sorry, Dad, we promise not to misbehave again. Please don’t blame Jon.”

Nathaniel stared intently at the two individuals, his facial expression remained utterly unchanged.

“You guys don’t have to apologize to me.”

Both kids were taken aback upon hearing the remark.

“Both of you did the right thing. When someone tries to bully you, it’s only natural to fight back. However,” Nathaniel paused before continuing, “you’re too young. If something like this happens in the future, make sure to inform me first. Secondly, you’re all too careless in your actions, making it easy for others to see through your plans.”

After hearing all this, Jonathan couldn’t help but nod in agreement. “You’re right. We didn’t think it through earlier.”

“Be more careful in the future,” Nathaniel warned.
