Chapter 123
Elliot was scolded and felt speechless. If he wanted to say anything else, it was even possible that his parents would chase him out of the house.
At this moment, David walked in. When he entered and saw Danielle standing at the side in a daze, he could not help but find it funny.
"David, hurry up and see whether we have brought enough things." Vivian wanted to let David pack for Danielle as well.
Danielle took a look. Given the current situation, if she did not stop them, she would be afraid that her parents would move the house to school. "Dad, Mom, and my dear brothers, I will only bring four suitcases at most. I’m going to university, not to go on a spring outing. You brought too much. I’ll come back when I have time."
The Darling family was a little anxious when they heard that. "Danielle, four suitcases can’t fit it. Why don’t you bring fifteen? Or you can’t take all these with you."
"I’ll bring six at most. I really can’t bring any more than that. I’ll just bring clothes and daily necessities. I won’t bring any chefs, servants, or bodyguards," said Danielle. ’What a sweet burden!’
"Mr and Mrs. Darling, listen to Danielle. Just bring six suitcases. I bought a house near the school. Everything is well-equipped. Danielle can go over at any time." David placed the keys in Danielle’s hands.
"Thanks, David." Howard and Vivian looked at each other. ’Our son-in-law is really not bad. He’s thoughtful and treats Danielle well, unlike the sons who can’t help at all.
"Look at David. When can you be as outstanding and attentive as him? Then I’ll be so happy." Vivian glared at his sons.
The Darling brothers felt quite wronged. They had gotten up early in the morning to pack Danielle’s suitcases, yet their efforts seemed insignificant compared to David’s casual comment and a set of keys. Had they known, they would have bought a house near the school as well. They really felt outsmarted.
In the end, they listened to Danielle and only packed six suitcases. They were afraid that Danielle would be unhappy if they brought too many suitcases, but they were also worried that Danielle would suffer if they brought too little.
Vivian felt a little upset. "Baby, when you are on vacation, you have to go home to see me. You have to eat more. Don’t go hungry."
"Mom, I’ll accompany you when I rest." Danielle hugged Vivian and comforted her. When she turned around, she saw David looking at her with a bitter expression. ’What’s wrong with him?’
Yesterday, she had said that she would accompany him when she had time. However, she had forgotten about it so quickly. A second ago, David was delighted, but now, he felt so down.
Today was the day Audrey’s grounding was lifted,
and it was also the day school started. Audrey was originally very happy, but when she reached the stairs, she saw this scene.
She had also started school, but no one had prepared for her. ’Is it because Danielle is related by blood to them while I am not?’
Now, a crowd had gathered downstairs to help Danielle pack her suitcases, creating quite a spectacle. They were planning to bring a chef, a maid, and a bodyguard, and even to build a playground near the school. It seemed more like preparations for an elaborate vacation than for an educational experience.
Audrey thought, ’I really can’t understand what my family is thinking. They are so heartless. When I started my freshman year of college, neither my parents nor my brothers ever helped me pack my suitcases; it was always the housekeeper who did it for me.
