Chapter 290 Does Not Know Chalk From Cheese
“Does Hattie know about it? What’s with that attitude? Lenora asked.
“I had asked her, and she was torn between the two, needing someone to help her make a decision.”
Lenora hesitated for a moment. “But…”
“No need for any buts. We’ve only spent so much time with her, and she could already place us on the same level as Aunt Tamara. Do you understand what I mean?”
“Yes.”
After hanging up the phone, Lenora immediately made a U–turn at the intersection ahead, heading to the relevant department to meet up with Zachary.
She parked her car in front of the relevant government department. Not long after, a familiar license plate number pulled in.
Lenora stepped out of the car, making her way to the open space in front of service department.
Zachary made his way over with Harrietta.
Watching the young girl get off the car, Lenora waved her hand. “Hattie.”
Harrietta hurried over, reaching out to hold Lenora’s hand. “Aunt Lenora.”
Thud!
Zachary closed the car door, slipping the car keys into his pocket, and casually glanced at Lenora
She appeared to be largely unharmed, presumably, it was just her arm that was injured?
Lenora cast him a glance, then took Harrietta by the hand and turned around. “Let’s go,” she said.
Zachary’s hand tightened as he watched Lenora’s retreating figure, silently following her without uttering a word.
Staff members guided them upstairs to the reception room.
Harrietta curiously craned her neck, looking around.
“Hattie, what have you been up to these past couple of days?” asked Lenora.
“Uncle Zachary took me to visit two kindergartens.”
“So, which one are you going to choose?”
Harrietta lived abroad in an area densely populated by Clusians. The majority of students in the kindergarten were also Clusians, so there was no fear of not being able to adapt.
Harrietta pouted. “Actually, I didn’t even want to make a choice… but I know that’s not possible.

Lenora gently pinched her cheek.

As the two were engaged in conversation, Zachary handed over Harrietta’s identification details, along with the embassy’s nationality change request documents, to the staff member. The staff member asked them to wait for a moment and then left with the documents in hand.
Only three people were left in the reception room.
Harrietta and Lenora were seated together. With animated gestures, Harrietta was sharing everything she had observed at the two kindergartens.
Lenora listened intently.
Zachary’s gaze fell upon Lenora, studying her intently
Ever since they met, she had hardly looked him in the eye.
Lenora said to Harrietta, “Once you start school, if you miss me, just call. I’ll come and pick you up after school, all right?”
Harrietta wrapped her arms around Lenora’s arm, glanced at Zachary, and asked, “Would it be a problem if I just stayed with Aunt Lenora?”
Hiss…
Harrietta accidentally pressed on Lenora’s injured arm. Lenora’s eyebrows furrowed as she sharply inhaled due to the sudden pain.
Harrietta quickly let go, her youthful face filled with worry. “Aunt Lenora, what’s wrong?” she asked.
“It’s nothing, I accidentally scraped my arm.”
“Heh. Zachary chuckled softly.
The rigging wire had broken. If the second one had snapped early, she would have fallen straight down from above, and it would have turned into a mere “accidental scrape” by the time it reached her lips.
Lenora detected a hint of mockery in his laughter, raising an eyebrow at him, she asked, “What’s so funny?”
“What am I laughing at? You think that if you tolerate Susanna, she will help you?”
He laughed, finding her naive.
She was well aware that all she needed to do was ask him, and he would certainly help her.
Yet, she simply wouldn’t.
She insisted on becoming Susanna’s an enduring Susanna’s unreasonable demands. Wasn’t this th
epitome of foolishness?
Yet, against all odds, he was fond of her, this fool.
“Not necessarily.

“So, you will.”
“I have to at least give it a try, otherwise I’ll be out of options.”
Moreover, being close to Susanna, Lenora would do her best to find any leverage to use against her
He clenched his large land into a fist, pounding it against his knee.
Even though there were other methods available, she simply didn’t want to use them!
Lenora glanced up at her, a gentle smile on her face. “Call me whatever you like. It’s just a name.”
The staff member took the completed form away and before long, returned. Handing Zachary his household registration book, they said, “Mr. Fuller, Ms. Fuller’s registration is all set.”
When they got married, Zachary’s household registration was transferred out. As the head of the household, Harrietta was added to the next page, listing their relationship as father and daughter.
“Thank you.
