When Her Death Couldn't Break Him (Cecilia and Nathaniel) novel Chapter 618

Chapter 618 Assigning Seats
Miranda hadn't expected that even though she had hosted this special gathering at her house, she had once again be overshadowed by Cecilia. To change the topic, she brought up the recent reforms planned for the kindergarten.

Once the conversation shifted to the new kindergarten reforms, the moms eagerly discussed it with Miranda, leaving Cecilia out of the loop.

In today's era, children began competing from the starting line, and Jonathan's international kindergarten already taught bilingual lessons, math, and various interest projects from the moment they enrolled.

To ensure their children received the best education, many of the mothers tried to get on Miranda's good side.

To Cecilia's surprise, Miranda began assigning the children's seats right then and there.

The small class had only twenty students, but Miranda arranged for the best seats in the front and center to go to the parents who praised her the most.

Miranda then turned to Cecilia and said, “Ms. Cecilia, Jon has excellent grades. He probably doesn't need to sit in the front row like the other kids, right?”

It didn't really matter to Jonathan whether he sat in the front or back, but why should Cecilia let her son be slighted?

If there was something worth fighting for, then she would fight for it!

“And what about Felix? Is he sitting in the back too? He should have pretty good grades, right?” Cecilia smiled as she asked.

If Miranda said Felix wasn't sitting in the back, it would mean his grades weren't that great.

Understanding her implication, Miranda quickly replied, “Oh, well, Felix has poor eyesight.”

Upon hearing this, Cecilia immediately pointed to another mother, Helen Simmons, who wasn't as well-regarded just like Priscilla.

This mother wore glasses, and Cecilia recalled her son was the only one in class who wore glasses. His name was Terry Rogers.

“Then shouldn't Terry be sitting in the very front? How could you put him in the corner?” Cecilia questioned.

Miranda froze.

She hadn't expected Cecilia to drag the other mothers into the conversation.

Helen's husband was nearly bankrupt, and Miranda had been planning to have his son expelled from the school.

Cecilia noticed that the permits were divided into A, B, and C zones, areas she had seen at Jonathan's preschool during pick-up times.

Zone A had the best spots, closest to the children's classrooms. Zone B was a bit farther away, and Zone C was even more distant.

There was also the Zone D without permits, located outside the school grounds. Cecilia and the others had always parked there during quick stops.

Sometimes, when there wasn't enough time, they had to let the kids out early to run into the school on their own.

At this preschool, it took at least ten to twenty minutes to run from the gate to the classrooms.

By the time it was Priscilla's, Helen's, and Cecilia's turn, all the permits were gone.

Miranda offered an apologetic smile. “Unfortunately, the school parking spots are limited, and our class received fewer permits. I had to give them to the other moms. The three of you will have to park outside for the next six months.”

Priscilla pleaded, “Ms. Miranda, could you make an exception? I have a baby daughter, and every time I park too far, I have to carry her while also bringing my son into the school.”
