Chapter 0393

After Valerie and Marcus left for Santorini, Camille quickly got John ready for school. Today, the little boy was particularly excited because his teacher had told the class that a new student would be joining them. The boy was coming from Slovenia, which fascinated John. Having recently moved to a new country himself, John was curious about meeting children from different places, and he had spent the weekend learning all about Slovenia.

At school, John, still being the new kid, usually sat alone. So, it was planned that the new student would sit beside

him.

“Granny Camille, can you pack an extra sandwich for me?” John asked cheerfully as they prepared to leave.

“An extra one? Why?” Camille asked, intrigued.

“Today, my new classmate is arriving, and he’s going to sit next to me!” John said, brimming with excitement.

“But how do you know he’ll want a sandwich?” Camille asked, smiling.

“I don’t know, but you always say you win people over through their stomachs!” John replied matter–of–factly.

Camille looked at him, amused by his logic. She had meant something entirely different when she said that, but his interpretation was sweet. She couldn’t help but smile and decided to go along with his thoughtful plan.

Once everything was ready, Camille, Emma, and John set off for school, accompanied by four bodyguards. Two stayed to watch over John at school, while the other two escorted Camille and Emma back home.

“Hello, Miss!” John greeted his teacher as they arrived.

“Hello, John! How are you today?” the teacher responded warmly.

“I’m good! But I have to run to class now!” John said, already dashing off.

“Alright, see you later, little one!”

Camille didn’t speak Valentian, so Emma accompanied her to translate.

“John is excited,” Emma said, smiling. “He says the new boy is arriving today.”
