Chapter 6 Take Her To School
- Reese's mouth opened unintentionally and his pupils quivered a little. Breathing came hard to him. Dad? Valerie didn't modify her expression. Her frigid eyes belied their clarity and brightness. There was no indication of Reese in the depths of her eyes. "Valerie." Indeed, dad. Reese spoke in a hushed tone. Valerie remained unfazed. She gave Reese a direct glance. She yelled "Father" slowly and steadily, which gave Reese a slight heartache."Daddy!" Reese remembered Valerie calling him "Dad" in a quiet voice. When she referred to Reese as "Dad," what face did she have? "Wham!" Valerie was shocked to hear the sound of a cup hitting the table hard.
- Her confused gaze found Reese, whose cheeks turned red with rage."I instructed you to treat seniors with respect. So, you did that on purpose to irritate me, didn't you? "Why can't I call you Daddy?" Isn't that a more considerate manner to address an elderly person? Reese was enraged. He asked himself, "What's going on? "Whatever became of Valerie? She avoids getting close to me. What is it that she desires? Oh? "What are you doing?"Upon entering the dining room, Kieran, who had a restless night, couldn't help but notice the peculiar mood. Kieran's voice restored back Reese's sense of reason. "Kieran, you arrive at the ideal moment. Take a look at Valerie. Her personality has evolved!
- Even now, she contradicts us! Reese glared at Valerie and pointed his finger. Kieran furrowed his brow. Valerie's nature was evident to him even before his father did. The three of them sat uneasily in the dining room after Reese accused Valerie. space: Valerie was no longer hungry. All she wanted to do was return.She carried out her thought exactly. "I'm heading out first. I'm going to return later. Hold on! Is this the proper way for you to act? Valerie started to walk away, but Reese stopped her abruptly. At last, Valerie's brow furrowed. "Is there anything else, Father?" It was Kieran's turn to enlarge his eyes now. "Daddy...," Kieran murmured quietly. There was a hint of sadness in Kieran's piercing eyes. Valerie, let's have a formal discussion now. Dad is in the room as well. You are welcome to discuss your complaints with us and provide an explanation for your actions.
- Taking out a chair, Kieran folded his arms on the table and looked over Valerie. Reese took a seat too. He placed his hands on his chin and rested his elbows on the table. They didn't intend to have a meaningful discourse between them. Which complaints? They would always have a long list of reasons not to, if Valerie told them. reply. The Horton family's males never let themselves to be in the incorrect.Valerie got into arguments with them when she was five or six years old. Their growing distaste and criticism of her was what she received in return. Valerie put her hands on her legs, clinched her teeth, and balled her fists. She bowed her head, not meeting their gaze. Talk. Everyone is occupied. Everybody has tasks to complete occasionally, therefore You are under no need to lose your cool.
- Should you possess any Express your displeasure clearly. Kieran's voice grew louder with time. Valerie's disappointment was palpable. Unhappy with something? She could not possibly be unhappy. Being unhappy suggested that Valerie thought there might be hope for them.With a chilly gaze, Valerie turned to face the two men she was staring at. "Kieran, Father, I'm not unhappy at all. I just took actions that I to face censure for it? were appropriate. Dor I greeted Father when I saw him in the morning, but he told me to treat him with deference, just like Zoe, and to respect my elders. I just addressed him as "Father." That word isn't it polite? "Daddy, what's upsetting you?" You even pushed Kieran to voice criticism. me. "I don't comprehend. It appears that whatever I do, you will accuse me.Is what I've done insufficient?
- "I've given Zoe everything she enjoys, even my room and my valuables. She has them from me. You instructed me to eat alone and not bother anyone else. I will not bother you any longer because I know how to do it. I recently ate an early breakfast. Must I also take your criticism for that? Valerie's look, which suggested that she was narrating a story, was devoid of the typical fury or sadness. The tone was aloof and the tempo slow. The two men seated across from one another were completely at a loss for words. If Valerie had cried and fussed like she did previously, Tears and fussing over nothing? A beat skipped in Reese's heart.How recently did Valerie act out in front of him? What about the room that she alluded to?
- Reese begged Valerie to give Zoe the room because Zoe was not well and Valerie's room was large. Valerie was now residing where? A dressing room has been created out of Zoe's former quarters. Valerie was now residing where?Reese's chest throbbed straight from reality. A shiver went through him. Reese's toes started to get chilly as well. Kieran looked at Reese and noted his look. Reese gazed at Valerie, and his pupils shrank. It seems that he had a thought. However, Kieran did not change his stance. Zoe was not doing well, and Valerie had a large, well-ventilated room.Valerie was quite little. How much room did she require? Like with Reese, Valerie no longer referred to Kieran as "Kier," but rather as "Kieran." Valerie had a strong will.
- Kieran's thoughts were racing. Valerie was stubborn, and he wanted to see if there was anything he could do to change her. Kieran saw the newspaper in Reese's hands out of the corner of his eye. A thought of inspiration suddenly came to Kieran! "This year, you should be about seven years old, right? You should start primary school now. Mmm? Valerie raised an inquisitive gaze to Kieran. Valerie would not be given much thought in her former life until two years after she was sent to a public elementary school.Whether she left early or late made no difference. It was a public school, anyway. Valerie had to report to primary school. If so, she owed Kieran an apology. He reminded Valerie to go to school, Reese.
- Indeed, school! Students are still being recruited by that esteemed international school. I'll check to see if any spots remain. Reese, still dazed, heard Kieran talk about primary school. His thoughts immediately cleared. Reese skipped breakfast altogether. He headed directly for the study. Excitement is not what is intended. It appeared more as though Reese was running away.Reese didn't want to confront Valerie or acknowledge it. Reese would facilitate Valeric's admission to an esteemed university. He could only absolve himself of his guilt by doing this.
- Keeping that in mind, Reese took swift action to have Valerie registered at the esteemed institution. Deeply preoccupied with their own thoughts, the two men decided which school Valerie should attend. After brewing a cup of coffee, Kieran excused himself by saying he had work to do. He was at a loss for words with Valerie. When Valerie was left alone in the kitchen, she was staring straight ahead. It was intended to be a public elementary school, right?
