The Silent Wife

Chapter 215

Chapter 215

“Mr. Wade!” Charlotte and Samuel immediately hopped off the swings.

The teacher held their hands, one on each side. “I knew that the two of you would be here. I’ve told you two multiple times that you have to return to the classroom right away after the outdoor activity session ends. Also, why didn’t the two of you finish your homework properly in the last two days?”

Charlotte had never attended elementary school before this, while Samuel had been raised abroad. Thus, they were unlike most children who grew up in this country where respect for teachers formed part of the culture. On top of that, because of their wayward personality, they didn’t take any criticism to heart.

Upon seeing their unfazed attitude, the good-tempered teacher added resignedly, “Forget it. I’ll speak to your parents during the parent-child activity next week.”

Meanwhile at the Burton Group, Rachel received a call from the nanny of the Burton Family as soon as she finished the task at hand. “Miss Chris, I have something to attend to at my hometown tonight, so I would like to take leave today. Can I trouble you to go and pick Charlotte up from school?”

“Of course, no worries.”

After Rachel hung up the call, she realized that she forgot to ask which school Charlotte attended but when she called the nanny again, all she heard was the busy tone.

As it was almost the dismissal time of elementary schools, she decided that she couldn’t afford to wait any longer, so she gave Justin a call.

“Hello?” Justin’s cold and indifferent voice was heard from the other end of the line. “What’s the matter?”

Headed by a student holding a card that indicated their classes, the students queued up in lines according to their classes and exited the main gate of the school. The homeroom teachers were leading the queues and handed the children to their respective parents one after another. “Samuel’s mother?” “Here!” Upon hearing the name Samuel, Rachel reflexively raised her hand to show her presence. The teacher raised his head and saw Rachel but the very next instant, his expression abruptly changed. “Rachel!” The male teacher suddenly dashed out from the crowd and stared at her in a daze for a long time.
