Chapter 763 Mark Is Bullied (Part Three) (1/2)

Brian couldn't take his eyes off Mark. His clothes had become dirty when he had fallen down on the damp ground. He keeled down next to him and patted the dust off his clothes. Mark's lips curled into a bright smile at his dad's gesture. Brian looked at the children and said, ”It's not right for kids to fight like this. You should behave yourself and play together, okay?”

The chubby little boy showed no arrogance in front of him. He lowered his head and said apologetically, ”Okay. Mark, I'm so sorry.”

”It's all right,” said Mark, with the smile spreading all over his face now. He then looked at Brian and asked, ”Dad, what are you doing here?”

Just after Brian's car had left, the teacher came out from an alley nearby with a beaming smile and said to the children, ”You guys are the best actors I have ever seen! And as for today's reward for the acting class, everyone gets a beautiful red flower for their amazing performance!”

The children cheered together. ”Teacher, is that man really Mark's dad?” asked the little girl, with a worried expression.

Vincent came out from his hiding spot, and answered her question, ”Yes, he is. But he lost his memories in an accident. So he doesn't remember Mark.” The children gasped and some of them shook their heads in disbelief. Vincent continued, ”
