Second Chance His Unending Love (Calista Hartwell) novel Chapter 50

Chapter 50

In the dining room at Frost Manor, Austin sat across from Killian, who was so swamped with work that he’d brought his documents to the breakfast table, scanning them between sips of coffee.

Seizing the moment when Killian paused to sip soup, Austin leaned forward eagerly. “Dad, I ran into Mom at the school gate today.”

Killian pushed a bowl of

stomach-nourishing soup toward his son, his eyes never leaving the documents in front of him. “Hmm,” he replied casually, offering no further response.

“She talked to me first. I think she wants

to make up with us,” Austin added, hoping to spark his father’s interest.

Killian still didn’t look up, his pen scratching across the paper as he ignored his son’s comment entirely.

Austin picked up his spoon, dipped it into the soup, and took a tentative sip—only to spit it out immediately, gagging.

“Disgusting!” he exclaimed.

He’d always been picky about food; if something didn’t taste good on the first bite, he wanted nothing to do with it.

“Which chef made this? Fire them right now,” Austin demanded, his voice sharp.

“It was Ms. Anderson. She’s still preparing the second course in the kitchen,” the maid replied nervously.

Silence fell over Austin, doubt creeping into his mind about Nicole’s cooking

skills.

“Forget it, tell Nicole to stop,” he said.

The taste was a far cry from his mother’s.

“Hurry, Nicole-who knows how long Olivia’s been in class already? I don’t want to fall behind,” Austin urged, his impatience growing.

“Don’t worry, I’ve got this!” Nicole promised confidently, puffing out her chest.

She was certain this would be easy. Her plan was simple: Austin had been the top scorer in the exam. If she waited outside he school of the Yale Scholars Program for any teacher, they’d be begging to take uch a talented student.

With the Frost family’s name behind nem, enrolling him would be a breeze.

She put her plan into action immediately, but things didn’t go as smoothly as she’d hoped.

Nicole waited outside the school all day, and every teacher she managed to flag down refused to listen to her, shutting her down before she could even finish explaining Austin’s situation.

Blind, stubborn old men!

Left with no other options, she returned o Frost Manor, putting on her best pout and rushing to Killian and Austin with a

elpless expression.
