Chapter 25: Engagement Invitation Card


    Vi smiled lightly. That smile was the every nightmare of Noah’s scarce childhood memory. “Come,


    give me your hand.” She extended her hand. The manicured nails on her pale fingers were all painted


    pink. The gems on her nails were gleaming with cold light as if resembling a kind of warning that


    pierced into Noah’s eyes. Noah extended his hand while trembling and was held by her tightly. He was


    then taken out by her.


    “I guess he’s just scared that you won’t have time to y with him after we’re married.” Vi held his


    hand and stood before Joseph with a gentle and also sympathetic look. “He only calmed down after I


    exined to him that I’ll film less, take care of him with you and bring him to the theme park.” Seeing


    Noah lolling his head as if he had controlled his temper, Joseph trusted her words. He felt relieved and


    his thought that the marriage is an urgent matter became stronger.


    It was Friday. Hayden returned home from work and habitually took the newspapers and magazines


    she subscribed that day from the mailbox downstairs. She flipped through them while heading towards


    the couch after entering the house. Ste rushed out of the bedroom and plopped onto the couch,


    showing off her rope braiding skill at her which she had just learnt.


    “Blue Castle Bilingual Kindergarten?” Hayden suddenly eximed. Her eyes widened when she found


    a thick envelope sandwiched between the newspapers. “What’s wrong, mommy?” Feeling curious,


    Ste tossed the braided rope aside and approached her. Hayden opened the envelope deftly and a


    stack of paper documents slid out of it. “Enrolment letter?” She let out another exmation. “What?”


    Ste only knew a limited number of vocabries and she frowned in a daze. “Free tuition?” Hayden


    nearly screamed the rooftop off. “Mommy!” Ste picked her ear in dissatisfaction. “You’ve scared me,


    what’s going on?”


    With an incredulous look, Hayden mumbled, “Why are you given an offer by Blue Castle? Do you know


    Blue Castle?” Ste shook her head nkly. Hayden then patted her own head, as if she had suddenly


    remembered something and she muttered, “Of course, how would you know.”


    Hayden had grown up in Nanking since young and she was still very familiar with the famous schools in


    Nanking. Blue Castle was exactly the most expensive and most luxurious, the top most kindergarten


    which ordinary people would not dare to consider in Nanking. It was renowned as the Hermes of


    kindergartens, the noble of the nobles. It cost 400 thousand yuan solely for tuition fee a year, without


    including meals, uniform and school activities. With rough calctions, nobody would dare stepping


    into the school without a more than one million yuan annual ie.


    “I’m offered to study at such a good school without the need to pay money?” Ste blinked and was


    slightly confused. “The point is we did not register for it at all, how would they have your personal


    information?” Hayden frowned and felt weirder and weirder as she thought. “Could it be your


    godmother?” yna had many friends and she had mentioned wanting to send Ste to a better


    private school before. She had also mentioned wanting to cover her tuition and incidental fees, but was


    rejected by her. Could it be she had done it before asking for her permission? Having thought that, she


    gave yna a call and yna’s top was blown at the other end of the phone.


    “Blue Castle? Am I that bold enough to set you up? You’ve overestimated me sis. I do have the


    capability to enroll Ste into the school, but you don’t want me to pay the money, and I’m more afraid


    that you can’t afford the expense there!” She then eximed when Hayden told her further information.


    “What? Free tuition, incidental and activity fees? Have I heard it wrongly? Did you just win a lottery?”


    Hayden could not help but hold the phone a distance away from her ear due to her shrill. “Okay, since


    it’s not you I’ll hang up for now. I’ll think of itter.”


    “Hey, did you happen to hook up with any rich guytely?” Before she hung up, she heard yna


    teasing her casually. Her words did remind her of something. Could it be him? Someone who had great


    capability and wasvish, and even had the reason to help her, there would be no one besides him.


    After a round of struggle, she still decided to dial his number. “Hi, Mr. Beckham…Sorry for bothering


    you thiste.” Besides Joseph, she could not think of anyone near her who was able to spend a few


    million yuan at a go without blinking an eye.


    Joseph’s voice sounded indifferent from the phone. “What’s the matter?”


    “Sorry, but I really can’t think of anyone besides you. I’ve just received notification from the Blue Castle


    Bilingual Kindergarten, and I just want to ask if it’s you who helped me about that?”


    “Yes.”


    Yes? Just like that? Slightly in a daze, Hayden asked, “But why?”


    “You’ve saved Noah, it’s nothing.”


    “The favor you return is too huge, I can’t afford to ept it.”


    “To me it’s just a matter of a phone call.”


    “But…” Hayden did not know how to exin her struggle. She stammered for a long while and could


    not get her words right, afraid that she would make him misunderstanding her wanting for more.


    “Anything else?” There was a little impatience in his voice. “No…”

    “I still have things to do, and I’ll hang up for now.” Busy tone was heard from the phone. Staring at her


    phone in a daze, Hayden suddenly felt annoyed and moped. There was no problem in helping others,


    but couldn’t he at least ask for her needs first? If he was willing to help regarding the government


    organization’s permission matter for the private kindergarten she had her eyes on, she would be


    thanking him profusely now already. But why did he pick the Blue Castle out of so many choices? Even


    if he had settled the fee payment, could Ste possibly ept being in a campus environment full of


    kids from rich family?


    “What kind of person is he?” Hayden plopped onto the couch. “What is he thinking? He actually wants


    to send you to Blue Castle to study? Is Blue Castle his family business?” Ste was listening to her


    words openly at the side and she had quite understood the situation. Secretly feeling happy, she said


    “Now you’re talking nonsense!” Hayden patted her butt. “I still haven’t dealt with you of what happened


    last time at the Japanese restaurant, don’t you cause me anymore trouble! I have enough problems


    now!” Ste pouted and muttered, “I am not talking nonsense!”


    From every condition she had witnessed so far, it was seen that Mr. Beckham actually cared for her


    mom. ording to the old man’s words, Mr. Beckham had never cared for any woman before and the


    bias in treatment could already showed signs of a budding romance. Ste went on basking in the


    delight of her almost achieving sess. She glimpsed at her mother who was still sighing and frowned


    in slight disappointment. Oh mommy! When can you care and strive a little bit harder for your


    happiness? If you don’t work hard in life, how would you be able to enjoy life and stand out among the


    women to get yourself married into a wealthy family?


    Hayden was still in a mncholic mood and she tossed the stack of documents onto the tea table with


    frustration. The documents identally touched the pile of newspapers and magazines, and all of them


    slid and scattered onto the carpet. A red card caught her eyes. It flew out from the pile of magazines


    before her and coincidentally fell right on her feet. Hayden did not notice it as she was concentrated on


    the enrolment letter just now. She stooped and picked it up. Her eyebrows wrinkled when she took a


    glimpse of it as it was an engagement invitation card.
