Chapter 807 Jane lowered her gaze, a flicker of resentment in her eyes. She would never allow herself to be overshadowed by Nyla forever "Alright, Grandpa, I know what I need to do,” he replied.
"I'm tired now. You take Wil to play for a bit, and stay for dinner tonight," Pedro said.
Once he left, Jane got up and headed to the garden.

Wilhelm looked up, his small face showing impatience as he barked, "You can't even pick an orange? I'll have Great-grandpa fire you!" With his urging and threats, the servant gritted his teeth and climbed a bit higher until he finally managed to grab the orange.
Unexpectedly, the moment he touched it, a loud crack echoed as a branch snapped beneath him.
He fell to the ground, screaming in pain upon impact. "Ah! It hurts so much!" He clutched his broken leg, his face contorted in agony as cold sweat dripped from his forehead.
Wilhelm showed no remorse. Instead, he watched the injured servant with glee, even clapping his hands. "Useless! Serves you right! You should've fallen harder!" Wilhelm's little face was filled with malice as he regarded the servant like an insect, displaying no sympathy whatsoever.
Jane approached Wilhelm, glanced at the injured servant, then coldly looked away and pulled Wilhelm along as they left.
Only after they disappeared around the corner did another servant cout to help the injured man. Wilhelm held Jane's hand and, sensing her silence, scratched his head. "Mommy... why aren't you talking?" Jane looked down at Wilhelm, her heart aching as her gaze landed on the bandage on his forehead. “I was just thinking. Wil, does your forehead still hurt?" Wilhelm wanted to say it did, but after a moment, he shook his head instead. "Not anymore, Mommy." +25 BONUS "That's good," Jane replied.
Seeing Jane fall silent again without mentioning how to deal with Mason, Wilhelm felt anxious and asked, "Mommy, Mason pushedand hurt me! He's a bad person. Can you make the principal expel him? I don't want to see him again!"

A flash of guilt crossed Wilhelm's eyes. "Why are you asking that? Do you think it's my fault?" "No, Wil.... I'm just asking..." Jane replied.
Hearing this, Wilhelm relaxed a bit. He raised his voice deliberately and began to whine it was Mason who pushed me... Mommy, you have to make the principal expel him!" Seeing him throw a tantrum, Jane felt a headache coming on.
There was no way to expel Mason. Moreover, Wilhelm would have to find a way to please him in the future. Given Wilhelm's personality, it would be tough to get him to do that. "Wil, you and Mason both made mistakes today. Let him apologize to you, and you two can get along in the future, okay?" Jane suggested.
