Sign the Papers Mr. Langford novel Chapter 546

Wren glanced at him.

Lawrence saw her too.

With half a hallway between them, the air was quiet for a few seconds.

Ultimately, Lawrence was the first to speak.

"I asked Leo. He said I could come."

Wren nodded.

"Then go inside."

Lawrence didn't walk ahead like he used to.

He followed behind Wren and Daisy as they entered the classroom.

A few rows of chairs for parents were set up at the back.

The walls were covered in the children's interview assignments. Someone had interviewed a firefighter, someone else a doctor, and another child had interviewed their grandmother who woke up early every day to make breakfast.

Leo's assignment was pinned on the row by the window.

The title read:

"I Interviewed Daisy."

The lines below were still written in clumsy handwriting.

She said being scared isn't shameful.

I want to be a kid who can say I'm scared, too.

Lawrence stood in front of the assignment, staring at it for a long time.

Some parents nearby recognized him and whispered amongst themselves.

"That's Mr. Langford, isn't it?"

"Miss Whitaker is here too."

"Aren't they divorced yet?"

"That thing online about Stellaris, that's about her, right?"

Their voices were kept very low.

But the classroom wasn't large, and the hushed whispers still drifted into their ears.

Wren didn't look back.

Daisy turned her head, her gaze cooling a fraction.

Lawrence heard them, and his face darkened.

He was just about to speak when Wren said softly, "Today is for the children."

Lawrence stopped.

She wasn't defending those people.

She was reminding him not to drag his own emotions into his child's moment.

Once the sharing session started, Ms. Miller had a few children come to the front to read excerpts from their interviews.

One child had interviewed their mother, saying that even though she was exhausted from work every day, she still sat with them to do homework.
