Chapter 1906
Ivy still hadn’t heard back from Liam.
At dinner, she learned from Rosalynn that Liam was going abroad for further studies.
“Going abroad? To which country?” Ivy asked in surprise. “Mom, are you sure you heard it right?”
Wayne placed some deboned fish gently onto Ivy’s plate. “Liam mentioned it himself. Your mom confirmed it with the principal too, Liam’s going to a really good school.”
“But when we were in Norhaven, Liam was preparing for a competition next year!” Ivy still couldn’t believe it.
“The principal said it’s a last–minute opportunity, a rare one at that,” Rosalynn chimed in.
In truth, she was just as confused.
Liam had always been adamant about not going abroad.
Last year, he passed up the chance to study overseas and gave it to a girl he was competing with.
Why did he suddenly decide to go abroad? And why in such a hurry?
He was leaving tomorrow.
Rosalynn wanted to go see him, but Liam flatly refused.
With a frown and thinking about the unanswered question, Ivy wore a sour expression.
Then, she channeled her anger into her appetite and started to eat her food.
She was so mad that she ate more than usual.
Hilaria watched, amused.
After dinner, she stormed off to the kitchen, grabbed the salmon she reserved for Max and went to take care of the injured Max.
When she came back from feeding Max and checked her phone, there was still no reply from Liam.
She angrily took out the practice problems Liam gave her before and started working on them with gusto.
Rosalynn chuckled at the sight and then checked the time.
“I’m still a bit worried about Liam. Wayne, keep an eye on Ivy, I’m going to check on him.”
“Honey, Liam’s always been a resourceful kid. He’s made this decision and he’s going to a top–ranked school, it’s going to be great for his future. There’s nothing to worry about,” Wayne paused, “If we interfere too much, Liam might push us away.”
“But still…”
“How about this, I’ll ask the principal about his departure time, and I’ll go with you to the airport to see him off tomorrow, okay?”
Rosalynn thought for a moment and nodded.
“Alright, don’t worry. Once he’s gone, we’ll have someone look after him over there.”
“Mmm.” Rosalynn nodded lightly in agreement.
Wayne draped an arm around her shoulders and gave her a gentle squeeze.
In reality, even if Rosalynn went to see Liam that night, she wouldn’t be able to find him.
Not long before, Liam had locked up his home and gone to his parents‘ grave.
He took his luggage with him and booked a hotel near the cemetery, it’s likely he won’t be going home.
He’ll head straight to the airport from the cemetery tomorrow.
To Wayne, there was nothing wrong with his approach.
Liam might have made a mistake, but a few years abroad would do wonders for his future.
And Ivy would have one less potential bad influence around her. NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.
It’s a win–win situation for everyone.
That night, Ivy was moping around all night.
She texted Liam again, but still got no reply. It was like Liam had vanished into thin air.
