Aiden rolled his eyes again. She really is dumb. You call her dumb and she actually proves it. What was he even doing wasting his breath on her? Playing with Freya was way more interesting–and at least that counted as helping his uncle charm his future wife. But this dumb girl? What did he get out of humoring her? Nothing.
Forget it. Not worth it.
Aiden ignored Han Summer and, too bored to do anything else, moved off to the side to play with the sandbox. As he scooped and poured, he couldn’t help but feel a little gloomy. How had it come to this? A genius little prince like me, reduced to playing this kind of low–IQ game. Truly, what a disgrace to the times!
Meanwhile, Freya–completely unaware of Aiden’s internal drama–was still listening to Sophia go on and on.
“Summer’s always been very shy. I had no choice but to transfer her to this school. After all, the academic standards and teacher quality here are excellent. The only thing I’m worried about is whether the other children will be friendly. I’d hate for them to treat her the way adults do–with prejudice. If that happens, Summer might end up being bullied.”
Freya blinked. Saying something like that right in front of the school staff–isn’t that just asking for enemies?
She glanced at the staff member nearby, whose polite smile was clearly starting to crack. Freya quickly stepped in to smooth things over.
“I wouldn’t worry too much. Kids aren’t as complicated as adults. Summer’s adorable–she’ll be just fine. And the staff here are all so professional. Even if something does come up, I’m sure they’ll handle it right away. Isn’t that right?”
She deliberately gave the staffer an opening, and the woman immediately responded with a bright smile.
“Oh gosh, that’s not what I meant! It’s just that the staff at Summer’s previous school weren’t very responsible. I didn’t mean you, I swear. Please don’t take it the wrong way. I absolutely trust your school—I’m just a bit of a worrywart when it comes to Summer.”
