Her Cancellation of the Engagement novel Chapter 16

Chapter 16 Accepted to Rheinsville Kindergarten

The next day.

It was just eight o'clock in the morning. Sherman and his family were having dinner when his cell phone rang.

It was from an unknown number.

Recently, Sherman received countless calls from different unlisted numbers and become discouraged.

They were all calls from the companies he had submitted his resume to.

Their replies were all like this, "Sorry, Mr. Geller, you don't fit our criteria."

Sherman sighed and picked up the phone.

"Is this Ronan's father?" The voice sounded very friendly on the other end of the phone.

"Yes, this is Sherman speaking. May I ask who's calling?" Sherman responded, putting some food on Gianna's plate.

"I am an assistant to the principal of Rheinsville Kindergarten. I'm calling today to tell you that Ronan is accepted to our school. I wonder if you agree with your son's enrollment."

Sherman froze on the spot, holding a fork in his hand.

It took a few moments before he asked in a shaky voice, "Who did you say you were?"

"I'm the assistant to the principal of Rheinsville Kindergarten." The assistant on the other end of the phone still sounded gentle with a smile.

Sherman's mouth dropped open in shock. Then he jumped to his feet and shouted excitedly, "Rheinsville Kindergarten? You, you mean, Ronan's getting accepted into your school?"

Laney, who was sitting next to Sherman, also jumped up excitedly.

Gianna raised her eyes at them and then ate her food calmly.

With her head turned slightly, she saw Ronan looking at her. Then she gave him a pancake and whispered, "Eat more, you're too skinny."

Ronan smiled at her and said kindly, "Thank you, sister."

Next to them, Sherman saw Laney staring at himself excitedly and put the phone on speakerphone.

At that moment, the assistant said, "Yes, we have checked Ronan's profile and found he meets our admission requirements. So, do you agree to let him join us?"

The assistant was helpless!

If it were anyone else, he couldn't have repeated it several times.

But this was Ronan!

He got an order that Ronan had to be admitted.

That was why he was being very patient!

"Yes! Of course!" Sherman, fearing that the school would not go back on their words, spoke very fast, and even his voice was twice as loud.

"Then please don't go out today. I will arrange for someone to deliver the acceptance letter to your doorstep." After the assistant finished speaking, he hung up the phone.

After the call, Laney excitedly grabbed Sherman's arm, somewhat incoherent, "Sherman, is it... is it true? Ronan... is accepted to Rheinsville Kindergarten?"

Oh Goodness!

Rheinsville Kindergarten!

That was the kind of school some rich kids couldn't even get into!

Not even if they had connections!

Brenna tried to send Enrique and Chace's son to Rheinsville Kindergarten before. Although she tried hard to pull strings, she failed in the end.

Laney heard that Chace's son took the Rheinsville Kindergarten admission test again recently.

"It's true!" Sherman felt like a dream. He never thought that luck had come his way.

"Geez! Gia is a blessed child!" Laney was grinning from ear to ear. "Not only have we been able to live at Fallingwater Community since Gia came back, but Ronan has also been accepted into Rheinsville Kindergarten. Gia is a blessing to us."

Laney couldn't wait to give Gianna a big hug and a big kiss.

Sensing her thoughts, Gianna said, "No! I don't want to be kissed!"
