Dear Sweetheart novel

Chapter 691 Sending Yasmin To School

Cassidy gazed thoughtfully at the little girl before her. “Then again, you're growing up fast and can't be clinging to

me like this forever. It's time to send you to school.”

Upon hearing that, Yasmin frowned. “I don't want to!”

“That's not up to you,” Cassidy retorted as she finished her packet of nuts and stepped out the door. “I'll talk to

Curtis about it. Since he's so rich, we can get him to find you some good schools as our reward for treating Belle.”

Realizing that the woman wasn't joking around, Yasmin followed behind worriedly. “Ms. Cassidy, I don't want to go to

school...”

“No way. All kids must have an education,” Cassidy insisted. “Besides, starting school at your age is already

considered late. I'd have sent you off earlier if it weren't for the issue with your household registration.”

As it turned out, a successful household registration required a valid ID card and either a parent or older family

member acting as the legal guardian. Naturally, Cassidy couldn't complete the registration process because she

was neither Yasmin's family nor her appointed guardian. More importantly, she was dirt poor.

After all, the money she earned from selling herbs was only enough to cover both of their daily expenses. There

was no way she'd be able to cope with the additional fees if Yasmin were to attend school.

On top of that, Cassidy had to head out frequently to gather herbs, so where would she find the time to take care of

Yasmin? Therefore, the best solution would be to entrust the latter to someone reliable who could get her into a

school and tend to her needs.

Given that Isabelle's husband, Curtis, is from a wealthy family, I'm sure I can strike a deal with him!

Meanwhile, Rayna had just woken up and found herself lying in bed in the guest room.

When she heard some noises outside, she quickly peered out the window, only to see Curtis and Robin walking into

the house.

“Why have you moved all the luggage here?” she asked as she looked at Curtis.

“Well, we're staying here for the time being,” the latter replied before letting Furry out of the cage he was carrying.

Furry jumped excitedly onto the bed as soon as it saw Rayna, which woke the other little creature curled up beside

the woman.

Rayna's instinct was to catch Furry and stop it from approaching Fluffy, but alas, she wasn't quick enough.

Robin, on the other hand, was baffled. Hmm... This creature's very similar to Furry except for its fur color and ears.

What's it doing here, though? “Why is there another one, Mr. Faymon?”

“Someone gave it to us,” Curtis replied impassively. Speaking of that someone, I have to admit I'm getting

increasingly curious about Fernando Zeller...

Rayna couldn't help but glance at the two creatures about to get into a fight. “How long will we be staying here,

then?”

“It depends,” Curtis answered as he calmly placed the cage beside a cabinet.

The purpose of this trip is to cure Rayna's eyes, but if there's an opportunity to get rid of the blood parasite in her

body, I won't let it slip away, either. There's no doubt Cassidy knows a lot more than me. That's why I hope she'll be

able to cure Rayna completely.

“But we've been away from home for so long. Don't we have to go back at some point?” Rayna muttered. The next

second, she waved a hand in front of her eyes, only to realize her vision was getting blurry again.

Needless to say, she was terrified. What if the return of her sight was merely temporary? What if she became blind

for good?

“I miss our children,” she whispered.

With that, Curtis turned to look at his wife and caught the sliver of sadness on her face.

“Let's give it a few more days. Once Ms. Cassidy has made some progress, we'll head home for a bit,” he reassured

as he unpacked Rayna's clothes and hung them neatly in the wardrobe.

After hearing his promise, Rayna was instantly cheered up.

At that moment, Robin heard footsteps coming from the stairs and popped out of the room to check. Thankfully, it

was only Cassidy and Yasmin.

“Hello, Cassidy,” Rayna greeted when she saw the pair through the window.

Cassidy walked to the door and smiled, her gaze alternating between Curtis and Rayna. “Do you mind if I borrow

your husband for a few minutes?”

Annoyed by that request, Curtis fixed a cold-eyed stare on the woman as he closed the suitcase and stood up.

To his surprise, Rayna wasn't in the least bit fazed. “Whatever you have to say, you can say it here.”

“Ah, it's no big deal... Not to you guys, anyway. It is, however, important to me,” Cassidy said before pulling Yasmin

in front of her. “Could I ask you guys for a favor?”

Rayna and Curtis immediately exchanged perplexed glances. “A favor?”

“Yes, that's right. Yasmin's about seven years old and should've started school a while back. However, I don't have

the means to support her education. It's already hard enough to feed both myself and her... That's why I was

wondering if you guys could help enroll her in a good school,” Cassidy explained as she quietly observed the

couple's expressions.

Alas, her heart began to race when she saw how calm they were. “I can find a way to treat Belle's eye condition

and the blood parasite...” Cassidy hastily added while pointing at Rayna's wrist. “If my treatment fails, I promise to

rope in the help of my seniors. Otherwise, I can also find someone who knows more about parasites. I swear I'm

not lying!”

Rayna glanced at the emerald bracelet on her wrist and turned to Curtis. “I think it's doable.”

Curtis, however, didn't react in any particular way. It's not that I'm unmoved by Cassidy's plea, but wouldn't this

transaction lead to a shift in control?

“Fine, but I have one condition,” Curtis finally said as his eyes fell on Yasmin. “If something that's not school-related

were to happen to this child—”

“Don't worry about that!” Cassidy interrupted. “All I want is for the kid to receive a proper education. It'd be great if

her daily needs could also be taken care of, but I swear you won't have to worry about anything else. I know it's a

huge responsibility to look after a child... Please rest assured that I have no intention of blackmailing you guys.”

After a while, Curtis turned to Robin. “Prepare the agreement, Mr. Yeast.”

Afraid that Curtis might go back on his word, Cassidy quickly chimed in, “I have a computer and printer in the

house!”

With that, Robin hummed his acknowledgment and left the room with Cassidy.

“I can't believe that kid has yet to go to school,” Rayna muttered as she caressed the still slightly weak Fluffy.

“Back in the day, the Gilroy family was big and powerful. Their decline only began in the last ten years or so,” Curtis

explained.

“Huh? How did you know that?”

“I looked it up online,” the man answered without skipping a beat. “It was reported that the Gilroys used to be

doctors abroad, except no one knows the exact country they had practiced in.”
