Chapter 441
After Jeanette and Chloe finished their chat, Chloe headed back to the piano room
Some beautiful p io music drifted down the hallway
The tune was bright and lively
Chloe didn’t go into the piano room, instead, she leaned against the
wall quietly listening to Cicely play the piano
She never thought that the carefree woman who seemed to care about nothing could play such gentle music.
Cicely kept playing one after another
Until lunchtime, when the teacher invited them to eat. Chloe looked at Hugo’s expectant face and finally nodded
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtChloe, Cicely, and Hugo sat together at a table for lunch, while Cicely clumsily feeding Hugo
She wasnt used to taking care of others Maybe it was her first time, so the was nervous.
“When did you find out?” Cicely asked quietly
Chloe took a sip of water and stroked Hugo’s face.
“After you got in my car, I had a hunch”
“You knew someone was tailing me, so you got off to distract them, right? Because you two are classmates, he
should know you.”
Cicely wiped Hugo’s mouth and laughed lightly, “Didn’t think people like you, with icy demeanor, would help others.”
Chloe glanced at her and said seriously. “He’s waiting for you.”
Cicely’s eyes flickered, and then she fell silent.
She knew that Chloe didn’t want to say certain things in front of Hugo.
After lunch, Chloe decided to stick around for another afternoon.
Cicely put Hugo down for a nap, and when he woke up, she played with him for a while.
Hugo was in a very good mood. Normally expressionless and aloof, his cold face now wore a smile, and he
appeared bright and radiant
When Chloe was alone, the headmaster came over.
He watched the warm interaction between Cicely and Hugo, a gentle smile in his eyes,
“Chloe, is that lady Hugo’s mother?”
Chloe hesitated for a moment, didn’t respond directly, just said,
“Headmaster, could you please not tell anyone about Hugo’s mother being in jail?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe headmaster nodded, ‘I understand, I wont tell anyone.”
Chloe nodded, then pulled out a check from her bag and handed it to the headmaster,
‘Please take good care of Hugo, his mother may not be able to take him away right now
The headmaster glanced at Hugo and Cicely, let out a sigh, and accepted the check from Chloe, “Thank you for
everything. Chloe”
Chloe gave a slight smile, but didn’t say anything
It wasn’t until evening that Chloe had to make up her mind to leave
This was the longest time she had stayed here in years.
If she stayed any longer, Seth might find out.
She found Cicely when Hugo sitting quietly by her side, quietly listening to Cicely tell a story
She didn’t want to break the warm atmosphere, but she still looked at Cicely
Just as she was about to speak, Cicely beat her to it,
“Hugo, I have to go now. You have to be good, eat your meals, sleep, and listen to your teacher, okay?”
Hugo’s eyes, which had just sparkled a bit, dulled in an instant.
