Chapter 662 Good Answer
“How did you respond to her?” asked Cecilia.
“I reminded her that she asked me to stop being friends with you and said that I’ve blocked you, so I can’t reach you,” Vivian replied.
Cecilia nodded. “Mhm, that’s a good answer.”
“Mhm hm. I’m not a fool. She was just too naïve. She even thought she could have others help her recover the money she lost from her investment. There’s no way that’ll happen.”
“Consider it a lesson for her.”
Vivian could tell her relatives didn’t actually care about her. As such, she thought she shouldn’t bother to think about them either.
“By the way, Old Mr. Sinclair wants to have a chat with you, Ceci.”
“All right.” Immediately, Cecilia agreed.
After Vivian passed the phone to George, he didn’t waste any time with unnecessary chatter.. “Cecilia, I heard that you want to be the president of the parents‘ association?”
The contest between Cecilia and Miranda for the position of parents‘ association’s president was the talk of the town among all the preschool mothers. Even George had heard about it from his peers.
George was particularly concerned when Jonathan was mentioned in the gossip.
“Yes, but I didn’t get elected,” Cecilia admitted, feeling somewhat embarrassed.
“Why didn’t you tell me?” George’s voice was filled with affection. “Isn’t it just the position of chairman you’re after? Consider it done with a single word from me. Just wait, I’ll handle it for you.”
Cecilia hastily declined. “Old Mr. Sinclair, there’s no need to trouble yourself…”
She knew that George only wanted to help her because he liked Jonathan..
“Cecilia, there’s no need to be so polite with me. Back in my younger days, I was friends with your grandfather,” said George.
Cecilia didn’t have much recollection of her grandfather because after she was born, she was handed over to Martha for care.
When she was three years old, her grandfather passed away.
“Old Mr. Sinclair, the main issue is that the parents‘ association election is already over,” said Cecilia.
“Then let’s have a re–election until you get the position.” George then hung up the phone without waiting for Cecilia’s agreement and went to settle the matter.
The toughest part about that whole situation was dealing with Niel.
After George made a phone call, the principal quickly sent out a notice. It mentioned that the initial selection for the parents‘ committee president had been unfair. Therefore, an online voting process under real names was scheduled for that afternoon to elect a new president.
The mothers were all stunned as they didn’t expect a re–election to be possible.
That time, without any hesitation, they all cast their votes for Cecilia.
Priscilla, who had previously tattled to Miranda, immediately messaged Cecilia: See, Ms. Cecilia. I told you that you could do it.
After seeing that, Cecilia replied with a smile emoji.
She understood that most people were largely self–interested. However, she decided that she would no longer assist Priscilla or provide her with anything in the future.
Upon seeing the new poll at home, Miranda immediately called the head of the preschool. “What are you doing? I can have Old Mr. Rainsworth have a chat with you, you know.”
The head of the preschool had lost his previous good attitude at that moment. “Ms. Miranda, the decision to elect a new president for the parents‘ association was brought to my attention over the phone by both Old Mr. Rainsworth and Old Mr. Sinclair.”
He didn’t expect the position of parents‘ association’s president would prompt two prestigious individuals from Tudela to call him personally.
At that point, he understood more than ever that he must treat Cecilia well.
Cecilia was certainly no ordinary individual.
Upon hearing that both George and Niel had called the head of the preschool, Miranda was immediately stunned.
When she hung up the phone, she was still somewhat disoriented. “Grandpa didn’t give up did he?”
on us.
Even though the position of the parents‘ association president meant nothing much to her, she couldn’t allow that to happen.
