Izumi's confession caused a stir inside the room.
Teacher Goda scratched his head. He didn't expect this to be the reason for the fight. The discipline teacher exchanged glances with Teacher Ayase while the two mothers were filled with incredulity.
Himari unconsciously held the hem of her blouse. A conflicted look flitted across her eyes.
Kazuya felt a pang in his heart as he looked at his crying nephew. He repeatedly rubbed his head, trying to offer comfort to the boy.
"I'm sorry, President Kasai," Kazuya moved his eyes from Izumi to the man, "I might sound bias because Izumi is my nephew but, I know his character. He won't lie about such a thing. Even so, I suggest we ask your son more."
Izumi's weeping turned quieter as he heard his uncle's words.
Uncle... was clearly defending him in front of Yuuto's father, wasn't he?
