Chapter 20: Isn’t He a Dead Man?!
Translator: 549690339
At this moment, Sheldon Rowland received a call and went downstairs to collect the food.
Then, Adrian Zhekova, Cindy Clarke, and Morgan Clarke were the only ones left in the office.
Adrian Zhekova looked at Morgan Clarke.
When Sheldon Rowland didn’t mention it, he hadn’t noticed.
But now recalling Sheldon Rowland’s words, Adrian Zhekova asked hesitantly, “May I ask a presumptuous question? The father of this child…”
“He’s dead.” Cindy quickly responded.
Adrian Zhekova: ‘
Given the speed of Cindy’s response, Adrian Zhekova doubted if she had prepared that answer years ago.
“A terminal illness, incurable.” Cindy said as if she was certain, “He died before Morgan was born.”
Adrian Zhekova:
“Have you told these words to anyone else?” Would anyone believe them?
“No one has ever asked me.” Cindy chuckled coldly, indicating she was not appreciative of Adrian Zhekova’s curiosity.
What’s the point of asking about the child’s father!
Adrian Zhekova:
Hopefully Morgan Clarke is not his son, otherwise wouldn’t he be a dead man?!
It didn’t take long for Sheldon Rowland to return with lunch.
Not long after they finished eating, Cindy received a call from Morgan’s kindergarten teacher.
“Teacher Linda.” Cindy answered the call.
“Morgan’s mom, could you perhaps come over with Morgan? Arthur Woods’s mother is here at the kindergarten demanding to see you and Morgan. She says that Morgan has injured Arthur and is insisting on an explanation.” Teacher Linda said uncomfortably, “Indeed, Arthur seems to be quite hurt.”
Cindy didn’t like these words at all.
“Teacher Linda, can you tell me why Arthur fought with Morgan?” Cindy asked in a serious tone.
“This…” Teacher Linda was at a loss for words.
She knew.
Although both parties were involved, the root of the problem was that Arthur had started it, insulting Morgan’s mother.
Morgan should not have retaliated, but Arthur was even more wrong.
However, Arthur’s family had contributed a lot of funds to the kindergarten, even the Headmaster was very polite to the Woods family.
Although their kindergarten was not as prestigious as the Kindergarten of Jetaime Academy, the acceptance to the latter was not solely based on financial capabilities.
But other than that, their Adventure International Kindergarten was one of the top prestigious kindergartens in Belfard.
Indeed, Morgan was attending this well-known prestigious kindergarten.
Cindy was once very glad that her career as a food blogger was going well, so she could afford to send Morgan to such a prestigious kindergarten.
Because the Woods family had sponsored their kindergarten heavily, from the Headmaster to the teachers, they were all a bit nicer to Arthur.
Even now, when Arthur fought with Morgan,
They clearly sided with Arthur more, even if the blame lay more heavily on
Arthur, they glossed it over.
Cindy said coldly: “Teacher Linda, aren’t you curious why Arthur and Morgan fought? Also, aren’t you curious about Morgan’s condition? Are you showing more concern for Arthur, who is not even in your class, because he appears to be badly hurt, but don’t show any concern about Morgan, who is your student?”
“Morgan is absent today!” Cindy said sternly, “Aren’t you even slightly curious about his well-being since he had to take a leave of absence?”
“It’s not that…” Teacher Linda realized that she might have jumped the gun.
“Besides, Arthur is older than Morgan. If Arthur got hurt, then how hurt must our smaller Morgan be?”
Adrian Zhekova and Sheldon Rowland simultaneously looked towards Morgan
Clarke.
Was this little guy hurt?
Morgan very simply lifted his T-shirt, not being evasive like he was with Cindy yesterday..
