Faye Sterling’s eyes widened in horror as she looked at the figures of the mother and son outside the car window, her mind unable to process the scene.
Eleanor Sterling! That was Eleanor Sterling!
She had a little boy with her, and that little boy was about the same age as Caleb Faulkner. If you looked closely at the boy’s features...
He actually bore a 60-70% resemblance to Caleb Faulkner!
Ever since seven years ago, when she and Rosalie Ray drugged Alaric Faulkner and sent Eleanor Sterling to his bed, she had kept a close eye on Alaric Faulkner all these years.
She was very certain that in these seven years, Alaric Faulkner had no contact with Eleanor Sterling, except for that period when Eleanor returned not long ago.
No matter what, Eleanor Sterling couldn’t possibly have given birth to such a big son in such a short time!
A thought gradually emerged in Faye Sterling’s mind.
She remembered seven years ago, Eleanor had two children in her belly. She managed to get rid of one, and the other, Caleb Faulkner, was taken away.
She always thought she had eliminated potential threats.
Did that chief obstetrician back then secretly disobey her and only told her one was dead when it wasn’t?
A wave of panic seized her heart as she became more convinced of her suspicion.
No! She must investigate thoroughly.
Eleanor Sterling held Estelle Sterling’s hand, wanting to enter the school, but unexpectedly, the security guard stopped them.
"Do you have a school pass?"
"We’re here to enroll," Eleanor Sterling replied.
The security guard glanced at them impatiently and remarked, "No school pass, no entry allowed!"
Earlier, he watched Eleanor Sterling and Estelle Sterling arrive by taxi. Having been accustomed to seeing many luxury cars, he naturally looked down on her.
Eleanor Sterling narrowed her eyes, looking at the security guard with his eyes almost rolled to the heavens. She said coldly, "I am here today to enroll and don’t have a school pass."
Hearing this, the security guard sized her up.
He sneered, the disdain clear in his voice, "Enroll in this school? One semester’s tuition fee costs seven figures. Are you sure you can afford that?"
The nearby servants who were there to pick up and drop off their employer’s children heard this and cast sneering and disdainful glances at Eleanor Sterling.
Because it was an aristocratic primary school in Veridia City, a place for the wealthy to send their children, there were many who intended to enroll in hopes of climbing into the upper-class circles.
They all assumed Eleanor Sterling was one of those people. Thɪs chapter is updated by novel·fire.net
Seeing the security guard’s mocking tone, Eleanor Sterling’s eyes darkened, and her expression turned dangerous.
However, just before she could speak.
Suddenly, something was said in the security guard’s earpiece, and his expression changed immediately.
His eyes, once filled with disdain, turned to shock and respect as he looked at Eleanor Sterling.
The speed of his change in attitude was astounding.
"I’m sorry, it was my oversight just now. Please, come in!" The security guard plastered a smile on his face and respectfully invited Eleanor Sterling to enter.
The onlookers hadn’t even recovered from their disdainful attitudes before they witnessed the security guard’s complete 180-degree shift.
Instantly, their gazes at Eleanor Sterling were filled with curiosity.
What astounding identity did she have that could cause such a change in the security guard’s attitude?
Eleanor Sterling didn’t need to exert herself, as the security guard had already surrendered.
She was a bit speechless, pulling Estelle Sterling along with her as they walked in.
Estelle Sterling looked at the dumbfounded expressions of those behind them and grinned.
This smooth sailing was all thanks to Hades’s help.
Indeed, Alaric Faulkner was quite useful. With just a message, a satisfying result was instantly delivered.
He was becoming more and more satisfied with Alaric Faulkner.
Not bad, he’d acknowledge this father first.
