Chapter 1627 Qiana's gentle voice cfrom the other end of the phone, "Is this Madam Quartley?" Hearing Qiana's gentle voice, Madam Quartley's anger had lessened a little, "Miss Lanes." Qiana smiled and said, "I'm sorry to trouble you, Madam Quartley. Montez didn't attend school today and I'm really worried about him, so I've called the registered phone number. You wouldn't be angry, right?" "No, of course I wouldn't." Qiana then said, "Madam Quartley, why didn't Montez ctoday? Did he catch a cold? Many children in kindergarten have caught a cold recently. They should be drinking plenty of water." "He did not catch a cold." Madam Quartley sighed heavily.
"Then what happened?" Madam Quartley suddenly thought of something. "Miss Lanes, are you free?" Qiana paused for a moment, clearly being surprised at Madam Quartley's question.
After a while, she replied, "I don't have tnow. I have a class with the children, but I will be free at noon." "How about I go over during noon and have lunch with you? I would like to have a conversation with you." Qiana agreed at once, "Alright then. I'll be waiting for you, Madam Quartley." After hanging up the call, Madam Quartley returned the phone back to the butler and asked him to leave. Yuliana felt that something was wrong when she heard the conversation.
She looked at Madam Quartley warily, "Grandma, why are you looking for Montez's teacher? Could it be..." Madam Quartley gave Yuliana a glance and said, "Don't ask too much for now. You'll know when the tcomes." Yuliana shut her mouth and felt quite surprised.
She had been by Madam Quartley's side for many years, so she understood her behavior quite a bit. It was really peculiar that Madam Quartley had requested a meeting with this teacher so politely when she was so furious at that moment.
Could it be that Montez's teacher was actually his biological mother? How on earth could there be such a coincidence? Tremaine brought Montez into the ward.
Yesseca was sitting on the bed with a dull expression on her face.
Seeing Tremaine and Montez coming over, her eyes moved around a little.
Montez felt his heart aching when he saw Yesseca like this.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe held Yesseca's hand and said, "Yesseca, what's wrong with you? Don't scare me." Yesseca then said in a hoarse voice, "Montez, did I frighten you last night?" Montez was about to nod when he suddenly shook his head. "No, no. I am a man. I surely won't be frightened by anything. Yesseca, don't worry, I am a strong man." At this moment, Montez had totally forgotten about how he was sitting on the ground crying like a crybaby last night.
Yesseca took a deep breath and asked, "Montez, did you really see a face sticking on the window last night?" Montez glanced at Tremaine.
Tremaine narrowed his eyes a bit.
Montez could only say, "Yesseca, when I wanted to go over to your place previously, Daddy toldthat there was a ghost on your window, saying that there would be a face sticking against the window, so he askednot to go. Yesterday, I woke up suddenly in the middle of the night and thought about what Daddy had toldlast time, so I looked at the window, and it seemed like there was really one there. But I'm not too sure about it either. Perhaps I was just scaring myself, and there was actually nothing at all..." Yesseca was dumbstruck.
She looked at Tremaine.
Tremaine said in a low voice, "I went to check yesterday, but there was nothing at all. It was just Montez having an illusion. He's still little after all and he will hallucinate easily after hearing all these from us grown-ups." Yesseca lowered her eyes.
It turned out to be like that.
It turned out that Montez had just seen an illusion after hearing Tremaine's words. She was just thinking too much.
She was still suspicious about the possibility of her brother still being in this world.
Yesseca suddenly smiled.
Her smile was bitter and sad.
She then lied down again. "Montez, can the both of you go out for awhile? I want to calm down alone for a bit." Montez looked at Yesseca uneasily.
Tremaine then held Montez's hand, and Montez had no other choice but to leave with Tremaine.
When they walked out of the room, Montez made sure that Yesseca couldn't hear them anymore before saying, "Daddy, why did you makelie to Yesseca? You've never toldabout such a thing before. It was not an illusion at all, I've seen it with my own eyes." Tremaine took a deep look at Montez and said, "Do you remember how she was last night? She needed sedatives to calm herself down. This matter would give her too huge a shock. We cannot tell her the truth before making it clear ourselves. I'm afraid that she couldn't take it." Montez didn't fully understand Tremaine's words.
But he could understand that Tremaine was doing this for the sake of Yesseca.
Montez then nodded hard. "Daddy, don't worry. As long as you don't wantto tell it, I won't tell it. But you have to help Yesseca find out what's going on. You'd better hurry up and get an exorcist. There must be a ghost who comes by to trouble Yesseca. You have to chase that ghost away!" Tremaine frowned hard.
He'd never believed in supernatural beings such as ghosts and gods.
He didn't believe it then, neither did he now.
If it was really a ghost's face sticking onto the window, it was surely just a real live troublemaker! At noon, Madam Quartley went to see Qiana.
Qiana then invited Madam Quartley to the teacher's cafeteria to have lunch there together.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBy that hour, the other teachers had already finished their meal, and they were the only ones there.
The food served was light.
Qiana knew that Madam Quartley would dislike her if she invited om Madam Quartley to sfancy restaurants with expensive dishes. Madam Quartley would prefer things to be kept simple. As expected, when she saw the light dishes, a hint of appraisal flashed across in Madam Quartley's eyes.
Madam Quartley said, "Young people these days know nothing else but to spend lavishly. Miss Lanes, you're not bad." Qiana handed Madam Quartley sutensils as she said, "Madam Quartley, I do not deserve such praise. I just enjoy having simple food normally, and I suppose that simple food is healthier for you as well. I have to look after the children after lunch as well, so I had the cafeteria to only serve ssimple dishes. I hope you don't mind it." "Of course I won't." Madam Quartley took the cutlery.
Qiana's face was filled with concern as she said, "You toldearlier that Montez wasn't ill. So what actually happened?" Madam Quartley sighed hard and said, "An unfortunate thing happened in my household!" Qiana said nervously, "Madam Quartley, don't scare me. You shouldn't be saying this." Madam Quartley gave no reply.
Qiana then looked at Madam Quartley nervously.
Madam Quartley, however, did not reply and started eating.
Qiana, too, began to eat.
On the surface, she looked very uneasy, but in fact, she was calm.
She knew that Madam Quartley would not ask her out for a meal for no reason. There must be something that Madam Quartley wanted to know about or to tell her. Even if Madam Quartley wouldn't tell her about it immediately, she would surely say it sooner or later.
Sure enough, after taking a few bites of the food, Madam Quartley said, m "Actually, nothing happened to Montez. He just misses his mom. I wonder where his biological mother is." X RULE #1 choose married women They have reason to keep things secret, as do you.
Qiana pretended to be surprised, "Madam Quartley, could it be that you don't even know where his biological mother is at?" SIGN UP FOR FREE
