Clayton stiffened slightly. He thought he had misheard.
'My daughter? Where did I get a daughter from?'
Just as Clayton was about to ask what was going on, h e suddenly had an epiphany.
He remembered that Lil Michael always called Nicole " Pretty Lady” and treated her like his elder sister, so there was no generation gap between them.
Moreover, with Nicole's beautiful and young face, anyone would believe that she was Michael's sister.
Clayton hung up the phone and sighed when he saw the amount of missed calls he had.
He calmly apologized in fluent French and ended the meeting early.
During his drive to the school, he was already mentally prepared.
He thought about how to explain this matter to the teacher and wondered how Nicole got to the school.
Less than twenty minutes later.
As soon as Clayton entered the appointed office, he found that the atmosphere inside was not quite right.
A little girl was sobbing in her father's arms.
She looked so pitiful and cute.
Nicole was sitting across the table with an innocent face, somewhat at a loss for words.
Lil Michael looked indifferent. Anyway, that girl crying had nothing to do with him, so he did not care.
"Michael’s father is here?"
The teacher saw the man at the door and hurriedly got up to greet him.
Clayton walked in with a gentle smile. "Sorry for the trouble."
Anyway, Clayton was already familiar with such a scene where Michael’s teachers were looking for him.
His eyes swept across to Nicole, who raised her eyebrows and averted her gaze somewhat sheepishly.
Lil Michael just hid behind Nicole.
'Huh, now he's afraid?' Clayton thought.
The teacher told Clayton about what happened once again very euphemistically.
Although Lil Michael did not seem to have done anything wrong, and there was nothing worthy of criticism, the boy was too insensitive when he interacted with his classmate.
Michael’s IQ could crush everyone, but his emotional intelligence was just too low.
