Chapter 406

Mr. Peterson watched as the little girl turned around and was about to leave. His heart was itching to tell the truth because the little girl deserved to know where her mother was now.

He clenched his fist as he was in a dilemma. 

Should he hide the fact that Mackenzie's mother must be suffering in the Principal's office right now…

Or should he tell her the location, with the risk of losing his job…

He wasn't a good man per se, but he did have a conscience for a little kid. Seeing how confused and worried Mackenzie looked as she searched for her mother, he couldn't hold it anymore.

So he opened his mouth, "Mackenzie…."

"Ah, yes, Mr. Peterson?" Mackie stopped on her track and spun back towards her drama teacher.

"I think I saw your Mommy going to the Principal's office, you should check there first," he said.

"Oh! Okay! Thank you, Mr. Peterson!" Mackie smiled wide. She looked so innocent, and that hurt his heart even more.
