The sudden commotion caught everyone’s attention.
The noisy crowd fell into an eerie silence.
The parents who had been holding me down immediately let go, straightened up, and turned their toward the scene.
Luna withdrew her foot, her gaze fixed on the convoy of luxury cars.
I quickly stood up and helped my daughter off the ground.
Under everyone’s watchful eyes, a man in a suit walked to the lead car and respectfully opened the
door.

Out stepped David, dressed in a tailored suit, exuding a charisma that instantly drew the attention of the crowd.
His handsome appearance and distinguished aura caught everyone’s eye.
“Isn’t that Mr. Jones?”
“Yes, it’s him! Wow, even his entrance is so grand!”
“And he’s so handsome too! No wonder that shameless woman was trying so hard to cozy up to him.” As the envious murmurs grew louder, Luna proudly approached David, linking her arm through his. “Honey, what are you doing here?” she asked, smiling sweetly.
David gave her a loving smile and replied, “Didn’t you mention you had a little run–in at the preschool? “Of course, I came to back you and our son up.”
Luna batted her eyes at him, clearly enjoying the attention. “Really?
“So no matter who messes with me, you’ll always be on my side?”
David didn’t hesitate. “Of course. You and our son are my treasures.
“Anyone who dares to hurt you will have to deal with me.”
Seeing that David was fully prepared to stand up for her, Luna beamed with pride.
The other parents were green with envy.
“I’ve always heard that Mr. Jones spoils his wife. Now, it’s clear he really does.”
“Look at them. A perfect couple if I’ve ever seen one!”
“Exactly. I don’t understand how some people have the nerve to try to wreck their marriage.”
“And she dared to mess with Mrs. Jones? She’s way out of her league. Mr. Jones is about to handle this. Let’s see how that homewrecker holds up now!”
Amid the gossiping crowd, Mason suddenly ran up to David and threw his arms around him. “Dad!”
David knelt and scooped Mason up in his arms.
“Hey buddy, your mom tells me someone gave you trouble at school?”
Mason smirked, his eyes narrowing into slits.
“Yeah, there was this little brat. When I hit her, she almost pushed me down.
“But I really gave her a lesson! I even cut her toe!”
David pinched Mason’s chubby cheeks and smiled approvingly.
“Good job, my boy! You’re really something!
“If anyone dares to fight back in the future, you hit them as hard as you want. Don’t worry about it. I will handle everything afterward. Got it?”
Mason nodded firmly. “Got it, Dad.”
“Good boy!”
After praising Mason, David turned to Luna.
“Now show me who had the nerve to mess with our son!”
Hearing this, Luna immediately led David through the crowd and pointed at me and my daughter, shouting, “Honey, it’s that shameless mother and daughter over there!”
