Chapter 441


    After Jete and Chloe finished their chat, Chloe headed back to the piano room


    Some beautiful p io music drifted down the hallway


    The tune was bright and lively


    Chloe didn’t go into the piano room, instead, she leaned against the


    wall quietly listening to Cicely y the piano


    She never thought that the carefree woman who seemed to care about nothing could y such


    gentle music.


    Cicely kept ying one after another


    Until lunchtime, when the teacher invited them to eat. Chloe looked at Hugo’s expectant face and


    finally nodded


    Chloe, Cicely, and Hugo sat together at a table for lunch, while Cicely clumsily feeding Hugo


    She wasnt used to taking care of others Maybe it was her first time, so the was nervous.


    “When did you find out?” Cicely asked quietly


    Chloe took a sip of water and stroked Hugo’s face.


    “After you got in my car, I had a hunch”


    “You knew someone was tailing me, so you got off to distract them, right? Because you two are


    ssmates, he should know you.”


    Cicely wiped Hugo’s mouth andughed lightly, “Didn’t think people like you, with icy demeanor,


    would help others.”


    Chloe nced at her and said seriously. “He’s waiting for you.”


    Cicely’s eyes flickered, and then she fell silent.


    She knew that Chloe didn’t want to say certain things in front of Hugo.


    After lunch, Chloe decided to stick around for another afternoon.


    Cicely put Hugo down for a nap, and when he woke up, she yed with him for a while.


    Hugo was in a very good mood. Normally expressionless and aloof, his cold face now wore a smile,


    and he appeared bright and radiant


    When Chloe was alone, the headmaster came over.


    N?vel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.


    He watched the warm interaction between Cicely and Hugo, a gentle smile in his eyes,


    “Chloe, is thatdy Hugo’s mother?”


    Chloe hesitated for a moment, didn’t respond directly, just said,


    “Headmaster, could you please not tell anyone about Hugo’s mother being in jail?”


    The headmaster nodded, ‘I understand, I wont tell anyone.”


    Chloe nodded, then pulled out a check from her bag and handed it to the headmaster,


    ‘Please take good care of Hugo, his mother may not be able to take him away right now


    The headmaster nced at Hugo and Cicely, let out a sigh, and epted the check from Chloe,


    “Thank you for everything. Chloe”


    Chloe gave a slight smile, but didn’t say anything


    It wasn’t until evening that Chloe had to make up her mind to leave


    This was the longest time she had stayed here in years.


    If she stayed any longer, Seth might find out.


    She found Cicely when Hugo sitting quietly by her side, quietly listening to Cicely tell a story


    She didn’t want to break the warm atmosphere, but she still looked at Cicely


    Just as she was about to speak, Cicely beat her to it,


    “Hugo, I have to go now. You have to be good, eat your meals, sleep, and listen to your teacher,


    okay?”


    Hugo’s eyes, which had just sparkled a bit, dulled in an instant.
