I have no problem with the ejection as it is described. It is worded factually and no tone words are used which could indicate that the conversation went straight forward with no emotional outbursts or unruly, etc behaviour.
Points of interest are how to handle the phrase I gotta a hundred ... and the umps' reply. You already probably know the two camps' thoughts on this way of handling a challenge so you will have to go with the one you promote.
On the overhearing of his partner's mistaken rules knowledge, this is one of those situations that umpires have to make sure no one is listening. So you can point this out to him and how to do it.
After the first that is enough, he could have moved away from the area of the coach and ignored the second statement by the assistan head coach. he did not and it went to the next level.
