Revenge After Death

Chapter 797

Wallace personally greeted Stephanie and Steven warmly in the principal's office.

"Please have a seat! We've prepared drinks for you. Is the room too hot?" he asked enthusiastically.

Stephanie and Steven exchanged glances. Wallace was being overly cordial.

She smiled and waved a hand. "It's fine. We're not thirsty."

Steven looked at Wallace and asked, "Ms. Hewitt mentioned that you wanted to see us. Is there anything you want to talk to us about?"Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.

Wallace smiled and said, "Here's the thing-Ashton is a genius, and it's such a shame for him to be stuck here.

"Some overseas schools have noticed his talent and are offering him a full scholarship along with substantial financial support. This is an amazing opportunity for him to receive a top-notch education overseas!"

Stephanie leaned against her seat, looking indifferent. Steven could tell with a glance that she had gotten tired of playing nice for the entire day.

Wallace shouldn't be pushing her buttons anymore, yet he was oblivious to it. "This is an opportunity that other students couldn't have!"

"Which schools?" Stephanie calmly asked.

Wallace quickly pulled out the brochures of various prestigious schools abroad. "These are some of the best

schools in the world. Ashton can choose from any of them."

Stephanie flipped through the brochures and raised her brows. "Are they all schools in Ulophia?"

Wallace nodded with a smile. "That's right. Ulophia's education system is top-notch, excelling in various fields. A genius like Ashton certainly deserves access to the best opportunities available!"

Stephanie eyed Steven and asked, "What do you think?"

"I have no opinions on this," he timidly replied.

"I believe our son can receive the best education here, with a great social environment and a safe learning environment," Stephanie rejected.

Wallace shifted awkwardly when he realized that he wasn't getting through to her.

He then turned to Steven and persuaded, "You're the head of your family, Mr. Lincoln. It'll be your call. Surely, you can tell that this is a rare and incredible opportunity-something the other students can only dream of!"

Steven timidly shook his head. "My wife's the one calling the shots in our family."

Wallace was peeved upon seeing that he wasn't getting through to either of them. He started threatening them," You'd better think carefully about this. It's definitely the best choice for Ashton. You might regret not letting him go if his education ends up getting affected."

He was implying that Ashton might face difficulties in school in the future if they refused to listen to him.

Steven took in a sharp breath, pitying Wallace for what was about to come.

Stephanie stretched her neck before standing up. "How did my son's grades get leaked out, Mr. Graham? Shouldn't the school be protecting the students' privacy?

"I've already told you that our son is the safest here. We're not going overseas, especially not to Ulophia! Do not understand what I'm saying?

"If you can't understand plain language, I'll let my fists do the talking instead," Stephanie threatened.

Wallace glared angrily at Stephanie, unable to utter anything back.

"Let's just take it easy, Mr. Graham. We should let them have some time to think it over. Studying overseas is a big

deal, after all," his assistant, Lilla Myers, hurriedly interjected to calm everyone down.

Wallace huffed and stopped commenting further.

Stephanie took Steven's hand and said, "Let's head back."

"Such unappreciative people," Wallace muttered.

After they left, he turned to look at Lilla. "Find a way to get Ashton's parents to agree to send him abroad."

Lilla seemed hesitant. "How about we try appealing to Ashton instead? Children nowadays are smart. If we entice him a little, surely, his parents would agree to it if he insists on going."

Wallace nodded and said, "Hurry up and get it going, then!"

Once they returned to the mountaintop villa, Stephanie looked at Steven. "Let's transfer the kids out. They're clearly being targeted now."

She frowned and cursed, "Is No. 9 stupid? He promised to protect us, yet we were still marked by Ulophia."

Steven nodded and asked, "Where should we transfer them to?"

"We'll send them to a public elementary school," Stephanie said with a frown. She thought it was impossible for their reach to be that far.

Steven nodded. "We'll discuss it with the kids when they're back."
