The headmaster was absolutely stunned. He looked at Justin in astonishment. "Aren't you Alexander's father? How can you possibly be Cheryl's..."
It was at this point that something finally clicked.
He looked at Nora and then at Justin in disbelief.
With a cool and distant look on her face, Nora stood and said, "They are triplets."
The headmaster:"!!!"
Triplets’!
He was utterly stunned.
It wasn't until the principal heard of what had happened and hurried over that the headmaster finally recovered. He immediately shouted, "I, I didn't know they were triplets! One of them has the last name Smith while the other's is Yale!"
Justin scoffed. "Oh, and the eldest among them has the last name Hunt."
Alexander's personality was too weird, so Pete was the most reliable one instead. Therefore, even if everyone at home knew that Xander was the eldest, they still silently regarded Peter as the eldest.
The headmaster:"!"
He shouted again, "E-even if that really is the case, this is a misunderstanding. How can you do this to me? I asked the two of you here for your children's own good..."
Justin said sullenly, "How? Simply by how you spoke so rudely of my daughter time and time again..."
Never mind if he had just said that his daughter had poor grades and would be a bad influence on Alexander...
After all, he was a headmaster, so they had put up with it. But what had the headmaster said at the end?
"It's obvious that she is no good girl..."
When had the definition of a good girl become so narrow-minded?
Was one worthless just because they had poor grades?!
The headmaster wanted to say more, but the principal immediately reprimanded him. "If you still want to make a living in this industry, then shut up at once! Do you have any idea who you have offended?!"
His hushed rebuke shut the headmaster up.
He had finally understood—he had offended people whom he should not have!
In the end, the headmaster was fired.
Nora and Justin also took Cherry and Xander home.
After all, they were only ten years old and were still too young to be living in school dorms. They had only allowed the two of them to live in the school dorms during the last few days for novelty's sake. Besides, Nora was not receptive to the idea from the start.
The two children went upstairs. Nora and Justin, however, looked at each other and then drove out of
their residence.
