Chapter 26: A Birthday Banquet or a Trap?
At Pinkwater Alley, Tina arrived home just as Hugo and Jennie were stepping through the door. She greeted them and asked, "Mr. Reed, is everything going alright?"
Hugo and Jennie had taken Zackary to enroll at Royal Oaks Kindergarten that morning. Hugo nodded, "It went well; Zackary really likes the school." There was a hint of bitterness on his face as he sat on the sofa, looking exhausted. Tina sat down beside him, glanced at him, and inquired, "Ran into some trouble?"
"Ah," Hugo sighed, "It's nothing, just the usual."
Seeing him sigh without elaborating, Tina turned to Jennie, "What happened?"
Tina wasn't one to pry, but having grown comfortable with Hugo's family over time, she was naturally willing to help. However, Hugo seemed reluctant to trouble her, never speaking up about his problems.
"Don't mind him; he's just being idle," Jennie said, glaring at Hugo before patting him on the shoulder, "Big deal, if you can't find a job, you can't find it. I still have some savings, and after a while, you can look for a job elsewhere. Can your mother intervene with your work in Ensford? If you go to another place, can she still meddle?"
Jennie continued, "Besides, Zackary's tuition is completely waived now. What's there to worry about? Don't bring a bad mood home every day and affect Tina's mood."
They had just found out about the tuition waiver while enrolling at Royal Oaks that day. For them, this was incredibly good news. Initially, Jennie was happy about Zackary being accepted at Royal Oaks, but after discussing it with Hugo, they realized they couldn't afford such a prestigious school under their current circumstances. They had decided to send Zackary to a regular kindergarten instead. They went to Royal Oaks to explain this, only to be told that Zackary's tuition would be waived.
This had delighted them immensely. But now that the tuition issue was settled, Hugo was worried about finding a job, constantly fretting about supporting the family, leaving Jennie speechless.
Tina understood; Hugo was being suppressed by Elizabeth and couldn't find work. She pressed her lips together, not caring whether Hugo had a job or not. She could support the family herself.
Hugo, in his forties, had lost a lot of time due to his job situation. Tina glanced at Hugo, took out her phone, opened her social media app, and found over 999 messages in her inbox. She was startled, then remembered posting about looking for a job and not checking her phone since.
She read the messages.
