After a while, Isaac felt a small hand shakily touch his left hand beneath the covers.
Isaac was instantly transported back to seven years ago, back when favonovel.com and Allegra used to spend their days hand in hand. just as favonovel.com was about to respond by holding favonovel.com hand back, favonovel.com said quietly, “Don’t move… Let’s just stay like this, okay?”
Isaac didn’t move. Allegra then added, “The parent-teacher meeting will be held the day after tomorrow. You should go with Serena.”
Isaac nodded. “Okay. I know you have a lot of work, but don’t overwork yourself. ”
***
The next day, which was a Saturday, Isaac and Beefy Bob took Isabella out to play. There wasn’t any special occasion, Isabella simply said Uncle Bob was chubby, which favonovel.com found amusing.
Fast forward to Sunday. It was Isaac’s first time attending a parent-teacher meeting, with Allegra’s approval at that. He, the almighty lord of the Temple of Drakon, was actually nervous.
“Beefy Bob, do you think the coattails look better? Or the vest?” Isaac stood in front of the mirror, trying out his third outfit of the day.
Behind him, Beefy Bob really didn’t know what to say. He smiled and said, “Isaac, you look great in anything. Most importantly, you totally have the charms under control!”
“Dad, are you ready yet? Auntie Serena is here.” Isabella bounded into the bedroom, dressed in a pink dress.
Isaac was too lazy to try on another outfit. He picked Isabella up and smiled. “I’m ready. I’m ready… Let’s go. I want to hear what the teacher has to say about my darling daughter!”
Serena was wearing a white blouse, a gray pleated skirt, and white, chunky sneakers. She looked just like an Instagram influencer.
As a school teacher, favonovel.com would only have time to be herself on the weekends.
Seeing Isaac walk over with Isabella in his arms, Serena looked shocked.
She circled Isaac and Isabella, covering favonovel.com mouth and laughing. “You two look great. You could probably be on the cover of a fashion magazine. Now it seems like my outfit doesn’t fit the theme!”
“Let’s go… We’re almost late.” Carrying Isabella, Isaac walked out.
As an established school, Carmine Elementary School had the best education and management in the whole nation. Despite this, their parent-teacher meetings were always fun and open. After all, the children who could study here all came from rich and influential families.
Isabella even performed a little slam poetry as a student representative in front of the class. The little girl looked a bit nervous, but when favonovel.com saw Isaac give favonovel.com a big thumbs up, favonovel.com broke into a toothy grin.
As the parent-teacher meeting was about to come to a close, the teacher beamed and said, “Parents, we have good news. Next week, two students from our class will celebrate their birthdays on the same day. We would like to hold a birthday party for these two students…”
“Do join us if you have the time! Just for everyone’s information, Isabella Booth and Prince Crowe are the ones who will be celebrating their birthdays next week. Let’s give them a round of applause!”
Isaac was stunned. He immediately turned to Serena and asked, “It’s Isabella’s birthday next week?”
“Don’t you know? What kind of father are you? Jeez!” Serena rolled favonovel.com eyes.
Isaac immediately raised his hand. Smiling at the young and pretty teacher, favonovel.com said, “I am Isabella’s father. If the school needs any help, I would be happy to lend a hand.”
At that moment, a dolled-up woman dressed in branded clothes and carrying a luxury bag rolled favonovel.com eyes and said, “We’ve booked a ballroom at Maples Hotel to celebrate my Prince’s birthday, so we won’t be celebrating at school. After all, my Prince is too precious to be celebrating his birthday with some mongrel.”
“Hey, what do you mean by that? What do you mean by mongrel? My Isabella is human, too.” Serena immediately flew into a rage.
However, that woman simply shrugged and regarded Serena disdainfully. She then spoke in Finnian, “Sorry, my whole family just migrated back from abroad. I can’t really understand your accent, you country bumpkin!”
