The Silent Wife

Chapter 210

Hearing that, Sue reminded the little girl, “It’s Great-grandpa’s birthday, Charlotte. He should be the one making a wish.”

However, thanks to Arthur’s adoration for the girl, he simply waved his hand. “It’s fine. What’s your wish, Charlotte?”

“I want to go to school.”

“School?”

At once, every single soul in the room was dazed by the little girl’s request.

Everyone knew that the Burton Family’s golden little girl was self-willed, so it was normal for her actions to be unexpected. However, what shocked everyone was that she had been to school before–in fact, she had been to every school around here, but she always managed to cause trouble wherever she went. Because of that, she was assigned a private tutor at home to overlook her academics instead. Despite everything, the little she-devil actually proposed to go to school?

“You want to go to school, Charlotte?” Even Justin was dumbfounded.

Ignoring her father, Charlotte didn’t even care to spare him a glance as she continued to beg Arthur, “Please, Great-grandpa?”

“That’s great! How could I say no to that?” Caressing the child’s head, the old man continued, “I’ll have someone find you the best school right away!”

“No need for that. I’ve already found one myself.”

“You did?”

“Yup, it’s this one.” As she was speaking, she presented a stack of documents she had been carrying by her side to her great-grandfather. “I had someone search it for me. All that’s left is a guardian’s signature and I’m good to go. You’ll sign it for me, won’t you, Great-grandpa?”

Suspicious, Justin scowled. “When did you start looking for a school, Charlotte? Let me see!”

“No!”

Immediately, Charlotte dodged Justin’s hand while giving him a disdainful stare and scorned, “I’m asking for Great-grandpa’s signature, not yours! Why do you even care?”

Hearing that, everyone was even more baffled.

Sneakily, Sue went to Amber and tugged on her sleeve, whispering, “What’s the brat’s deal? Why is she quarreling with Justin again?”
