The Million-Dollar Heart novel Chapter 17

The room fell into silence!

It took a long time for Joseph to regain his composure, and hurriedly asked, "Did you guys make a mistake? My son Andrew took the exam, not Thaddeus."

The two teachers looked at each other, then opened the acceptance letter to check the name, and said seriously, "No mistake, Thaddeus is indeed the one who got admitted."

After a pause, one of the teachers seemed to recall something and said, "Oh, Andrew, I remember him, he didn't make it."

Even though no one physically touched him, Joseph felt as if he had just been slapped across the face in public!

How painful! How embarrassing! Thaddeus was never favored in the Hawthorn family, but was admitted to Imperial Blossom Nursery. What the hell?

Beatrice couldn't hold back anymore, stood up, and asked, "Could you please double check? Thaddeus didn't even take the exam, so how could he possibly be admitted to your school? Did you get the names mixed up?"

The two teachers, who worked at Imperial Blossom Nursery, must have had top-notch work and judgment skills. They quickly figured out what was going on and said very seriously, "Thaddeus took a special exam that the principal personally arranged for him last night. There's no mistake with his name or the acceptance letter. Please don't doubt our work."

In fact, they didn't know whether Thaddeus took the exam or not. But that was what the principal said, and the acceptance letter was personally sent by the principal. So they naturally didn't ask any further questions.

"I didn’t mean that…"

Before Beatrice could finish her sentence, the teacher asked, "Is Dorian around? Could you call him, please?"

"Why do you want that guy here? He doesn't even live here!" Joseph's tone was quite rude.

The teacher frowned but didn't say much. Then he took out his phone and dialed the number on the list.

Soon, the call was picked up, and the teacher immediately asked, "Hello, is this Dorian? We're here to deliver the acceptance letter. Don't you live at the Hawthorn family's house?"

After hearing something from the other end, the teacher replied, "Tranquil Estates 1601, right? Okay, we'll be right there."

Upon hearing this, Beatrice and the others were shocked.

Tranquil Estates? How could it be? How could they live there?

After hanging up, the two teachers prepared to leave. Arabella quickly stepped forward and said, "Are you going to see my parents? Can I go with you?"

She didn't mishear, Tranquil Estates! Why would Dorian be living in Tranquil Estates? She had to figure out what was going on.

The teacher thought for a moment, then nodded. "Okay."

On the way there, Arabella still couldn't believe that Dorian could be living in Tranquil Estates. But when they entered the neighborhood, her face was filled with disbelief. She could actually get into this neighborhood.

They arrived at 1601, and Arabella was still skeptical. But a minute later, when the door opened and she saw Dorian and Cordelia, Arabella felt like her world had collapsed. Her mind was in total chaos. It wasn't until the teachers handed over the acceptance letter and left that she regained her senses.

"Dad, Mom, why are you living here?" Arabella couldn't help asking.

Dorian glanced at her calmly, "We rented a place here."

They didn't tell Beatrice after moving in, in order to prevent her coming here. They didn't expect such an unusual situation to occur, and yet Arabella was the first to know. Now that she knew, Beatrice would definitely find out too.
