“Is that so? Mrs. Tuffey doesn't look like that kind of person." Luca smiled. It would be inappropriate for her to show a cold expression to the parent who was talking to her.

The parent shook her head and said, "Even though you don't think so, your child is still going to be the unlucky one."

After that, she turned around and raised her hand. She told the teacher that she would be responsible for the drinks needed for the school outing.

"Okay. Thank you, Mrs. Blair." Mrs. Tuffey immediately recorded it down.

Another parent came walking in right after that. "I'm sorry, Mrs. Tuffey. I'm late."

"Hello, Mrs. Glisson. It's okay. Take a seat, please." Mrs. Tuffey smiled. Mrs. Glisson was always late for the parent-teacher conference. Mrs. Tuffey had already gotten used to it.

She heard that Mrs. Glisson was engaged in international trade, and she was usually busy. It was not easy for her to make time for her daughter's matters.

"Mommy, take a seat." Ashley let her mother sit on the chair. After her mother sat down, Ashley sat on the small bench.

"Nice to meet you." Mrs. Glisson noticed that it was no longer an old man who came to attend the parent-teacher conference with Tommy this time. Hence, she nodded and greeted Luca.

"Nice to meet you," Luca nodded and greeted her too.

Ashley said to her mother in a soft voice, "Mommy, Mrs. Tuffey is talking about the school outing."

Mrs. Blair, who was sitting in front of them, heard her and turned around again. "Mrs. Glisson, Mrs.

Tuffey is writing down the names of parents sponsoring the kids' school outing."

"Really? Do they need anything else?" Mrs. Glisson immediately asked.

"Fruits, the expenses for the school bus, tent, and some other supplies."
