Her Cancellation of the Engagement novel Chapter 17

Chapter 17 Mr. Geller, I Can Work and Support All of You

The room fell into silence!

After what seemed like an eternity, Chace finally realized what was going on and anxiously asked, "Have you made a mistake? My son, Calvin, was the one who took the exam, not Ronan."

The two teachers exchanged a glance and then opened the acceptance letter to verify the name. One of them replied with a stern expression, "There's no mistake. Ronan has indeed been admitted."

One of the teachers paused and seemed to remember something and added, "Oh, I remember Calvin you just mentioned, but he didn't pass the exam."

Chace felt he was being humiliated.

It was utterly distressing!

How could the neglected Ronan, who had always been invisible in the Geller's villa, be admitted to Rheinsville Kindergarten?

How was that possible?

Even Brenna could no longer contain her composure. She stood up and asked, "Could you please check it again? Ronan didn't even take the exam. How could he be admitted? Is it possible that you've got the wrong name?"

Working in the prestigious school, the two teachers were no ordinary people.

Soon enough, they grasped the situation.

One of them responded seriously, "Ronan attended the special exam held by Mr. Galvan himself last night. The name is correct, and there is nothing wrong with the admission letter. Please stop questioning the integrity of our work."

In fact, they were not sure whether Ronan had actually taken the exam.

However, Mr. Galvan said so and the acceptance letter was issued by him.

They wouldn't inquire further.

"I didn't mean it..."

Before Brenna could finish, the teacher interjected, "Is Mr. Sherman here? I'd like to meet him."

"Why are you looking for Sherman here? He doesn't live here!" Chace, who was angry, replied impatiently.

The teacher frowned but didn't say anything.

He took out his phone and dialed the number listed in the document.

Soon, the teacher got through and immediately spoke, "Is this Mr. Sherman? We've come to deliver the admission letter. Don't you live in the Geller's villa?"

After getting Sherman's reply on the other end, the teacher said, "Is it No. 1601 in Fallingwater Community? Alright, we'll be there in a minute."

Hearing this, Brenna and the others were in shock.

Fallingwater Community?

How could that be?

How could they be living there?

After hanging up the phone, the two teachers were about to leave. Alisa, who had been lost in thought, quickly snapped out of it and walked up to them, saying, "Are you going to see my Mom and Dad? Would you mind me coming with you?"

She hadn't misheard. It was Fallingwater Community!

Why would Sherman live there?

She had to figure out what was going on.

The teacher thought about it for a moment and nodded, saying, "Alright."

On the way, Alisa couldn't believe that Sherman was actually living in Fallingwater Community.

But when they entered the neighborhood, she was dumbfounded.

They got inside.

They arrived at No. 1601, and Alisa still had doubts.

But just a minute later, the door was opened, and when she saw Sherman and Laney, Alisa's entire world turned upside down.

Her mind was still in a daze.

It wasn't until the teacher handed them the admission letter and left that she was finally able to cope with what was happening.

"Dad, Mom, why are you living here?" Alisa couldn't help but ask.
