Ruby went straight to the point after some greetings. “Timothy has transferred to another school. When will Ellie return? It’s been a while since she last came to school.”

“I’ll let you know after talking this through with the kids.”

After hanging up, Charlotte felt unsettled. That mother-daughter duo may have committed all sorts of atrocities, but the child is innocent.

She really didn’t like it when children became caught up in their parents’ affairs.But still, even if Hector is now a lost cause, the Sterlings still have a solid foundation. They won’t fall that easily.
