Chapter 453 Romantic Rivals

Delilah followed Isla's gaze. Noticing the latter was fixated on Harrietta, she introduced, "That's the child of the Chairman of Fuller Group. She's exceptionally bright and sensible, and you wouldn't believe how easy-going she is." Delilah showered Harrietta with praises.

There were a few kids in the garden who came from incredibly affluent families. However, they were either incompetent or had terrible tempers, bursting into tears at the drop of a hat.

Harrietta was transferred into the class midway through the term.

Typically, students who transferred schools were those who couldn't get along in their previous ones. Delilah had braced herself, ready to handle a proverbial ticking time bomb. She was awaiting the complaints that would surely come from the teacher of the preschool class.

Surprisingly, all the teachers seemed to adore Harrietta. Every time there was a class meeting, they never missed an opportunity to praise her.

Moreover, the child was polite. Every time she saw the principal, she would always greet the latter.

At that moment, Harrietta wasn't off playing with anyone. She noticed Delilah and made her way over to greet the latter, "Hello, Mdm. Delilah."

Harrietta's voice was cute and innocent, so much so that it almost melted Delilah's heart. "Hello, Hattie," she said, "why aren't you playing with your classmates?"

"I... I'll go do it right away."

Harrietta cast a peculiar glance at Isla, who was standing beside Delilah.

This woman is rather strange. Why is she staring at me?

"Wait." Isla called out to her.

Harrietta gave Isla a curious look. "Ma'am, do you need something from me?"

"I think you're incredibly adorable and want to give you a gift."

As she spoke, Isla pulled out a newly purchased keychain from her pocket. The keychain had a small, plush teddy bear attached to it, something that children would find delightful. "Here, this is for you," she said.

Harrietta gently declined, "Ma'am, I can't accept this. My father has always told me not to casually accept gifts from others. If there's anything I want, my dad will buy it for me."

In kindergarten, she had always referred to Zachary as her father.

"I'm giving this to you. Just take it."

"No, ma'am, I don't want it. Mdm. Delilah, I'm off to play now."
