Scrambling to Be the Father of His Ex-Wife's Kid novel Chapter 1590

Munchkin's words just so happened to be heard by Theo, and he nodded in agreement. "I think so too. The range of facilities here isn't bad, but the orientation of the building is a problem. Buildings that don't get much sunlight will be cold, which isn't good for Munchkin's health."

I was a little taken aback. "You're only going to elementary school, not a hotel. It’ll be fine as long as you listen to the teacher and concentrate on your studies."

"No." Before Munchkin could say anything, Theo already rejected.

"Munchkin is still a growing boy. He needs to go to school five days a week. If he stays in cold classrooms like this long-term, it'll affect his growth. I'll never let my kid study in a classroom like that. Come on, let's go look elsewhere.”

Theo said as he left with Munchkin, leaving me to stand there alone dumbfounded.

At that moment, I realized that looking for a school might be even harder than buying a house.

The situation was about the same for the next few schools. The gates would automatically open when we reached the schools.

Some schools had principals and teachers come out to greet us.

Some schools were even more over-the-top. The principals would bring the entire board of teachers out to greet us, which made me even more embarrassed.

When Theo wanted to know more about the school, the principal even brought us to the theater as the meeting room was too small to fit so many people.

Theo and I sat on the stage, while the teachers watched us from below. It was an unbearable feeling.

Only after Theo brought it up did the principal let the other teachers leave.

Even after visiting a few schools, I still could not get used to this kind of treatment. Hence, I simply wandered around with Munchkin. We started from the school gate and walked all the way around the school and classrooms.

It was better to leave such an important task like understanding the school ethos and quality of teaching to Theo.

At first, I felt a bit guilty like I was an escapee.
