Ex-husband wants me back novel

Chapter 611 Chapter 611 +25 Bonus Althea stepped down first, then turned to Eli. And this time, without much hesitation, Eli followed, walking beside her. They moved side by side toward the entrance. Inside, the atmosphere was orderly. Some students walked by with books in hand, others sat in open areas, quietly engaged in discussion. There was no excessive noise. Everything felt calm. Comfortable. Eli took it all in, her gaze lingering on every detail. "It's... so peaceful," she murmured without realizing it. Althea glanced at her. "Do you like it?" Eli didn't answer right away. "I...

don't know," she admitted honestly. Althea didn't press. She simply nodded. A receptionist greeted them as they approached the front desk. "Good morning. Mrs. Althea?" "Yes." "The principal is waiting for you." They were guided to the principal's office on the second floor. As the door opened, a middle-aged man stood to greet them with a warm smile. "Welcome." Althea stepped first, Eli following just a step behind. The man studied Althea for a moment longer than expected before his expression shifted-softer now, as if something had just clicked into place. "You're... Mrs.

Althea," he said quietly. "I've heard of you." Althea was slightly taken aback, though she maintained her polite smile. "Have you?" The man nodded. "I knew the late Chase Miller. He spoke about you often." Althea's steps faltered, just for a second. Something in her chest tightened at the mention of that name. "He worked with our education foundation a few years ago," the principal continued, his tone filled with respect. "He was someone who truly cared about education. We were deeply saddened by his passing." Althea's gaze softened. "Yes...

he was," she said quietly, almost like a whisper to herself. She took a small breath, steadying her emotions. "Thank you for remembering him." 1/3 Chapter 611 +25 Bonus The principal gave a faint smile, then shifted his attention to Eli. "So... you must be Eli?" Eli lowered her head slightly. "Yes, sir." Althea spoke calmly, "This school was recommended by my husband. Daven handled everything regarding Eli's placement." At the mention of his name, the principal nodded in understanding. "Mr. Daven Callister," he said, as if confirming it.

"I've already received communication from him." He walked back to his desk and picked up a thin file. "He briefly explained Eli's needs-a conducive learning environment, a structured system, and... a strong sense of privacy." Althea nodded. "That's exactly what we're hoping for." "And we understand that," he replied evenly. "Mr. Daven was very clear about his expectations." Eli remained silent, but she could feel it now-everything here... had been prepared long before she even set foot in this place. "We don't see a student's background as something to be exposed," the principal continued.

"What matters is how they want to grow." Althea glanced at Eli, making sure she heard every word. "Thank you," she said sincerely. The man smiled. "If someone comes with the intention to learn, that's more than enough for us. Now. then, please-have a seat." They sat across from him. Instead of diving straight into paperwork or technical details, the principal began casually. "What subjects do you enjoy?" Eli blinked, slightly caught off guard. "Physics... and math," she answered softly. "And... singing classes." "Good," he said with a smile. "We take those areas quite seriously here.

But we also make sure every student feels comfortable while learning." Eli nodded, though she still seemed a little cautious, "We've reviewed your records," he continued. "And from what we've seen, your abilities are quite strong." Eli looked uncertain. "I... still have a lot to learn." "That's a good thing," he replied calmly. "Students who want to learn always grow more than those who think they already know enough." The conversation went on for a few minutes-easy, unpressured, with no trick questions.

Afterward, they were guided through the building, which turned out to be far larger than it appeared from the outside. 2/3 Chapter 611 +25 Bonus The first corridor they passed was lined with large windows, letting sunlight pour in freely. Through the glass, several classes were in session. The teacher's voice carried clearly without being disruptive, while the students remained focused-writing notes or listening attentively. "This is the main classroom area," the principal explained as he walked ahead of them.

"We limit the number of students per class to make interaction more effective." Eli observed quietly from outside. No one was distracted. No one was chatting idly. They were... actually learning. They moved on to the laboratory. The moment the door opened, Eli fell silent. The room was spacious, neatly arranged, and fully equipped. Experiment tables were set in symmetrical rows, while a few students conducted experiments under a teacher's supervision. "The physics and chemistry labs," the principal said.

"For students interested in science, we provide fairly intensive hands-on practice." 日 Comments Support Share +2 3/3 admin
