Chapter 29 Guardianship

Chapter 29 Guardianship

Charlotte's mind was filled with Nelson's comment on Srolanya High School. He used the words "not bad"!

Srolanya High School was the heaven for students and a shrine that they yearned to go to. It was the best high school in the country. But in Nelson's eyes, it was just "not bad".

Because Charlotte was too shocked, she didn't even realize that Nelson had pinched her cheek.

After a long while, she finally came back to her senses. She pulled out the prescription she wrote from under her exercise book and said, "Mr. Clark, I wrote this prescription. You... you can ask the doctors to examine it. It should be useful for nourishing your body."

Nelson looked at the piece of paper surprisedly and reached out to take it.

It was written with a pen and the handwriting was orderly and graceful. With a glance, he could tell that she had practiced a lot.

Pinching the paper, Nelson asked, "Are you distressed for me?"

How could Charlotte resist the tease of such an old hooligan of his level? So, she blushed again. Then she said in a low voice, "This... This is a thank-you gift for you."

Nelson looked down and put the prescription aside. "I'll let someone check on it," said he.

Charlotte heaved a sigh of relief. After hesitating for a while, she still said, "Mr. Clark, indeed, I'm very grateful for your kindness. But... But I'm afraid that I can't transfer to Srolanya High School."

Nelson raised his brows unhappily and asked, "Don't you like Srolanya High School? Or do you want to study abroad?"

"You can do anything you like in the country, but you can't go abroad." He hadn't finished many affairs, so he couldn't leave Guabia recently.

Charlotte was startled by his gloomy voice. She shrank back her shoulders and explained in a low voice, "I... I didn't mean it. Srolanya High School is a wonderful school and I don't plan to study abroad. It's just that..." She bit her red, monstrous lip and lowered her head as she continued, "The transfer requires the signature of my guardian... But... But my father may not allow me to go to Srolanya High School."

Indeed, she was sure about it.

Even if Jonathan would agree considering that she was his daughter, Aurora and Vivian would resort to all means to obstacle it. And she had always been an insignificant person in the Lopez family, not to mention that she was not important in Jonathan's heart/

Nelson reached out a finger to lift Charlotte's delicate chin and studied her ivory, clean face. He narrowed his eyes and asked with a meaningful smile, "Are you complaining to me?"

Charlotte was taken aback and asked, "What?" Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Nelson was rendered speechless.

Never mind. This little girl didn't have this notion.

He thought of the information that Waylon gave him. Charlotte had been very independent since childhood because none of her parents would pamper her and she had to bear everything by herself. Probably in her dictionary, there was no word like "complain".

Nelson asked, "Is Jonathan your guardian?"

Charlotte said in a soft voice, "Originally, my maternal grandfather was my guardian, but since he was in poor health, the court awarded my custody to my father... Er... Jonathan."

Nelson stood up and ordered the servant outside, "Prepare a car for me."

Charlotte asked, "Are you going out?"

Nelson didn't reply. He made a phone call.

Charlotte kept quiet obediently and prepared to read medical books by herself. But Nelson put on his coat, looked at her condescendingly, and said, "Follow me."

...

The Lopez family was a relatively powerful family that lasted for hundreds of years. However, when it came to Jonathan's generation, it began to decline because Jonathan was a moderate person and was not ambitious. He stubbornly preserved the fortunes that were accumulated through generations. Even if many medicines had been knocked out by the market, the Lopez Medical Corporation still chose to produce them. Because of this, the company was in a big financial crisis.
