How to Take Care a Bully

It just said a police officer was nearby when it happened, and he intervened and captured all the gang members.

'Seems Aiyden has some connection with the cops. Otherwise, I don't believe they would hide this news or is it the school?

But no, if it's the school, the action is too swift, except he called our headmistress and asked for help. But I doubt he would do that.'

While Rafael thought about this, a shadow suddenly covered him. Turning his gaze upward, he frowned as he saw Jeff and two of his friends staring at him.

"What? You have a problem?" he asked in a cold voice, his eyes filled with defiance.

He knew this would just trigger Jeff more. But since Rafael felt it was unavoidable, he decided to just go for it.

"You are nothing! You orphan! How dare you threaten me," Jeff said with a glare.

Yesterday, after class, he paid someone to look for information about Rafael, but he couldn't get much.

Both Rafael and Reina had almost nonexistent social media presence. But using his wealth and father's connections, he succeeded in getting their family registry.

Hearing the word orphan made Rafael's anger flare. His eyes looked at the clock, seeing he still had some time, and Rafael stood up.

"Jeff, is it? Let me guess, a second-generation rich kid born with everything but constantly belittled at home. 

You always fail to fulfill their expectations, resulting in your lack of confidence. 

So, you can only feel superior when you look for others who are weaker than you," Rafael said in a flat tone, but loud enough to be heard by everyone in the class.

While he was busy thinking about the bus incident, the other students had already come to the class, with the exception of Aiyden. He had not been called by the headmistress regarding the bus incident.

Rafael stood up from his seat and said, "If you dare, follow me alone, but of course, a wimp like you will only feel brave when you come at me with many people. I don't mind. Bring them, but none of you will be able to attend the class then."

Rafael crashed into their shoulders on purpose, pushing them back.

Jeff's face turned red, fuming with anger. He clenched his fist, then, without saying anything, followed Rafael.

Two of his goons looked at each other, confused about what they should do. With what Rafael said out loud, if they now followed, it would confirm Jeff was a wimp. But if they didn't follow, they felt Jeff would get beaten up badly.

"Does he even dare to do that?"

"He doesn't seem like someone stupid, but who knows if he becomes angry and decides to ignore all repercussions. Do you forget what he said yesterday?"

The other frowned. Rafael had dared to almost break Jeff's leg in the class, with all the witnesses. Who knows what he is capable of doing?

"If something happens to him, they will hold us responsible too. Let's just follow from a distance."

Meanwhile, Rafael had already left the hall and taken a turn into the emergency exit. He knew this was one of the areas without any cameras.

Walking down the stairs, he stopped and put his back against the wall. With crossed arms over his chest, he looked upward, waiting for Jeff to come.

He was sure people like Jeff would not be able to control their emotions after that provocation.

They acted all strong and mighty while, in reality, it was all just to hide their own insecurity. Based on Jeff's expression, Rafael felt calmer now. 

He was sure that as long as he didn't go overboard, Jeff wouldn't dare to tattle to his parents as it would just make them judge him more.

It didn't take long for Jeff to reach the stairs. The moment he saw Rafael, he raised his fist and dashed forward.

Seeing this, Rafael just chuckled; he didn't even move. He knew Jeff wouldn't even be able to pass the stairs without falling.

It's not like Rafael had set any trap, but based on Jeff's speed and motion, it was just a matter of time before he tripped.

And as Rafael suspected, he took two steps to the side, avoiding Jeff, who fell, rolling into the wall.

Rafael didn't try to help him, nor did he attack him further. He waited there patiently, looking at Jeff, who had an ugly expression on his face.

Jeff's anger flared even further as he realized he had made a fool of himself.

He threw a wild punch toward Rafael, but in Rafael's eyes, it was slow and had so many openings.

Rafael easily dodged it while baiting him to fall into another step of the stairs.

Swosh! Swosh!

None of Jeff's punches connected. Rafael didn't even bother to block the attacks. He just kept dodging while moving dangerously close toward another set of stairs.

Knowing his punches were useless, Jeff, in a fit of anger, decided to try tackling Rafael down. In his mind, since Rafael would be at the bottom, he would be the one who would be hurt the most.

His leg kicked the floor, pushing his body forward. But Rafael already reacts. 

Since the moment Jeff moved his leg, he had already taken action to dodge.

Without Rafael blocking the path, Jeff's tackle hit nothing but air. He almost fell when he suddenly felt a strong arm grip his neck from behind.

His foot barely touched the floor, while almost all his body was angled upward. If Rafael released his grip now, he knew he would fall.

At this moment, the emergency door opened again as his two goons arrived. Seeing Jeff's situation, one of them quickly screamed.

"Release our friend! Or we will report it to the school."

Rafael's lips curled into a cold smile while his eyes looked at them like a deadly predator.

"Are you sure you want me to do that? So you are telling me to let your boss fall down the stairs?"
