The next day.

Early morning.

Luke stood in front of the bathroom mirror, chin slightly raised, and then, looking in the mirror, Rachel, who was helping him tie his red scarf.

Rachel is already very skilled in tying her tie.

After helping Lu Ke tie his tie, he tidied up his bow tie, then took a step back and looked at his handsome fiancé in a suit.

Rachel nodded in satisfaction.

"Yes, very energetic."

"Thank you."

Luke smiled.

Rachel stepped forward, patted Luke's thick chest, and then walked out of the bathroom, opened the master bedroom door, came to the side bedroom not far away, knocked on the door, and then pushed the door and walked in.

into the eyes.

The second bedroom is 1.5 meters, and on the cute bed, in the quilt, there is a girl with long soft black hair sealed.

Seeing this, Rachel couldn't help but laugh.

"Lona."

“…… Well? ”

The quilt squirmed, and then, Lorna, who liked to bury her whole head in the quilt when she was sleepy, opened her eyes with a sleepy face and yawned.

"It's time to wake up, it's your day to go back to school."

“…… Good. ”

Lorna paused slightly, only then did she realize that today was not only the day she would return to school, but also the day she would go to a new school, and quickly nodded her head in response.

Fifteen minutes later.

Wearing a loose black T-shirt, a pair of slim jeans, and a pair of white sneakers on her feet, Lorna walked downstairs with a black and white backpack with a simple painting style.

Luke and Rachel are already seated at the table.

Lorna walked over, pulled out a chair, sat down, and said thank you to Rachel, who handed her a glass of milk, then yawned and looked at Luke with some curiosity: "You obviously drank so long last night, but why, you seem to be more energetic than me." ”

Luke's eyes were clear, and he didn't have the slightest hangover, and smiled, "It's talent." ”

Lorna was a little envious: "I want this talent too, I feel, I'm so sleepy, can I apply to go to this school next Monday?" ”

Luke didn't speak.

Because of this speech, it was not his turn.

"No way!"

Rachel vetoed Lorna's proposal, looked at Lorna and said, "It's September 15th, school has already opened, and if you want to graduate in June next year, you can't put it off any longer." ”

Lorna said "I know," then sighed and buried herself in the simple but delicious bacon and egg sandwich on her plate.

After a while.

Luke's black Audi A8 pulled out of the garage, and when he reached the intersection, Luke drove the black Audi A8 under him to the right, towards Marlborough Private High School, which was just two blocks away.

It was not yet half past seven in the morning, and at the door of Marlborough Private High School, it was already students coming, students coming.

A security guard on duty at the door saw Luke's black Audi and stretched out his hand to stop.

He was just about to speak when he saw the driver's window lowered, and a badge with an eagle logo appeared in his sight.

“FBI，open the door！”

“…… Yes。 ”

The security guard on duty subconsciously came back to his senses, looked at his colleagues in the management room, waved his hand, and motioned for the other party to open the gate.

The floodgates open.

Luke closed the window again, stepped on the accelerator, and drove straight into the campus in front of him under the gaze of more than a dozen boys and girls.

The trustee of Marlborough Private High School, with whom Rachel contacted, was named Sarah Lawrence.

Sarah Lawrence, 45, is not only the trustee of Marlborough Private High School, but also serves as the executive principal of the private high school.

As soon as Luke parked the car and got out of the car with Lorna, the secretary, who had just been waiting in the parking lot, confirmed Rachel's identity and led the group to Sarah Lawrence's office.

"Knock knock."

"Enter."

The secretary pushed the door in, looked at Sarah Lawrence, who was sitting behind her desk, seemingly signing several papers, with thick blond curls, and said, "Madam, Mr. Dane and Ms. Villeris are here. ”

Sarah Lawrence, who was signing the papers, looked up at Rachel, nodded and smiled, and then said to her secretary, "Let Olivia come up for a moment." ”

The secretary nodded and turned to leave.

Sarah then reached out and gestured to the three chairs in front of the desk, got up, and smiled and invited Luck, Rachel and Lorna to sit down.

After Rachel sat down, she handed a resume that she had prepared for Lorna in her backpack to Sarah, who was wearing a black business outfit across from her, and said with a smile, "Sorry, Sarah, things are too busy." ”

Sarah took her resume and gave Rachel a blank look.

"There's no need for our relationship to be so polite, well-known host, I'm really sorry, just invite me to have a cup of afternoon tea."

"Okay, then this afternoon, I'll get off work early."

"Not today, I have a board in the afternoon, how about tomorrow?"

"Okay."

Rachel said without thinking, "I have time at any time, just right, tomorrow weekend, or tomorrow we will go to the mall." ”

Sarah laughed, "Okay, no problem. ”

Rachel nodded.

"Okay, then it's settled."

"No problem."

While talking, the two girls made an appointment to go to the mall together tomorrow to buy a few autumn clothes for themselves.

Rachel then introduces Sarah to Luke.

"Luke, my fiancé."

"Sarah Lawrence, when I was the host, the first interview was given me by Sarah."

"Hello."

Sarah stretched out her hand to Luck and smiled, "Mr. Dane." ”

Luke shook Sarah's hand and smiled, "I still like people to call me Luke." ”

Between words.

The secretary knocked on the door again, and then, behind him, a woman with long jet-black hair, brown eyes, and a pair of glasses, who looked to be about thirty-five years old, walked in.

"Olivia, the head of the twelfth grade."

Sarah introduced Luke, Rachel and Lorna to the visitors, and then handed the resume to Olivia, who had just come in, and then pointed to Lorna, who was sitting next to Luke, and said to Olivia, "That's what I told you before, there will be new classmates joining in, Lorna Dane." ”

Olivia reached out and took Sarah's resume about Lorna, shook hands with Luke and Rachel, and then took Lorna away from the principal's office.

Sarah looked at Olivia and Lorna who were out of the house, shook her head and smiled, and said to Luke: "Sorry, Olivia is not the kind of person who is sociable, but she was poached from Stanford by me with a high salary. ”

Luke waved his hand, not caring about Olivia, who had a cold face just now.

Director of the Age.

One counts as one, and one is easy to deal with.

Luke's heart trembles now when he thinks of his former high school homeroom teacher, let alone a grade director.

About half an hour later.

Lorna had already received her freshly baked class schedule and was back in the principal's office.

Seeing this, Luke and Rachel got up to say goodbye.

Sarah had originally wanted to take Luke and Rachel to go shopping in person, but the secretary reminded her that there would be an online meeting at a major high school in California later, so she had to give up.

Then Sarah wanted her secretary to accompany the two of them.

Luke and Rachel decline Sarah's offer.

Visiting a school?

What is there to visit at school.

Growing up, Luke was not the kind of student who was happy and happy when he saw school.

As for Rachel?

Rachel should belong to the kind of school that loves it.

Luke looked at Rachel, who was leading the way in front of him, and seemed curious about the school.

"You've been here before?"

"I interviewed Sarah at the school at the time, and after the interview, Sarah took me around, and it wasn't a big change since last year."

Rachel said, then said to Lorna next to her, "Did you get the key to the storage box?" ”

Lorna pulled a key out of her pocket.

"Got it."

"Let's go to the rest corridor first."

Rachel said, leading Lorna, and after discerning the direction, she walked towards the rest hallway.

Because it was the time of the first class, the corridor where the students rested was empty, and only a woman standing not far away, holding a few books in her arms, stood not far away.

The woman listened to the footsteps, looked up, saw Lorna walking over, her eyes lit up, and she walked over.

"Lorna Dane?"

“…… I am. ”

"Hello."

The woman with long dark blonde hair who looked like she was of some Asian descent held a book in one hand and stretched out the other hand to Lorna, introducing herself: "My name is Clarice Fang, just call me Clarice, I'm a student assistant in the twelfth grade." ”

Lorna suddenly shook hands with Clarice in front of her: "Hello." ”

Boom!

Luke and Rachel's eyes swept over Lorna and Clarice, and looked not far away, the boy who had pushed the hallway away, looked panicked, and barged in with wet hair.

The boy snorted, swept past a few people, and rushed towards the side of the stairs.

But!

"David!"

“……”

David, who was putting on his clothes and preparing to leave here, heard a voice behind him, turned around, and then saw Luke and the others.

David's gaze fell on Clarice's body, squeezing out a smile.

"Good morning, Clarice."

"It's not early."

Clarice was speechless, "This is the fifth day in a row that you've been late for a week after school started. ”

David folded his hands: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, the waves in Long Beach are so good today, I can't hold back, I'm sorry." ”

Clarice rolled her eyes.

Rachel on the side looked at it with some curiosity: "Is there a wave in Long Beach today?" Didn't you say that the storm was blown to Malibu? ”

David opened his mouth, looked at Clarice, and explained sadly, "So I waited over there for a long time, and I was late, I promise, never next time." ”

Clarice shook her head speechlessly.
