What is the last sentence in chapter 9 of To Kill a Mockingbird?

The last sentence in Chapter 9 of To Kill a Mockingbird is "But I never figured out how Atticus knew I was listening, and it was not until many years later that I realized he wanted me to hear every word he said".Atticus knows that Scout is a nosy child, and therefore purposely discussed the main points of why he chose to stand up for Tom. He figured she would understand in time what it means to do the right thing, and not judge someone by how they look. This is significant because it shows just how prejudice everyone is, as he knows he will not win the case, for the man he is standing up for is african american.The final sentence of chapter 9 in "To kill a mockingbird" means that Atticus allowed Scout to listen to the conversation with his brother Jack about his case to teach her a lesson that she should not be racism and not listen to others in town. Moreover, it is important to the story because it gives hint about what is going to happen in the story after and how racism is huge subject in the story."But I never figured out how Atticus knew I was listening, and it wasn't until many years later that I realized he wanted me to hear every word he said."
