Chapter 19
Before long. Mirabella descended the stairs, a letter in hand. Approaching
Delilah, she extended the envelope. Delilah’s eyes fixed on the letter passed
from her daughter's hand. A flicker of confusion crossed her face before she
accepted it. “What's this...?”
“It's an acceptance letter for a transfer to Parkside High School” Mirabella replied
casually.
As her words settled in the air, Delilah, still in a state of disbelief, was struck
dumb when she saw the Parkside High School emblem emblazoned on the front
of the envelope. She stood frozen, the letter unopened in her hands.
Watching from the side, his expression hardening. Shawn snatched the
acceptance letter from his wife and quickly scanned it. When he looked up at
Mirabella again, his face was a mix of shock and bewilderment. It turned out that
when Mirabella had insisted she had chosen her school, she hadn't meant from
the selection they had offered her. She had made her choice on her own. The
date on the acceptance letter was from the previous month.
But... weren't Mirabella’s grades a mess? How could Parkside High School
accept her?
Snapping back to reality. Delilah scrutinized the acceptance letter thoroughly.
Once convinced it was legitimate, she, like her husband, was filled with
questions. She turned to Mirabella, about to speak.
But Mirabella’s phone buzzed in her pocket. She pulled it out, her eyes darkening
at the sight of the unknown number before she raised her head and said to
Delilah and Shawn, “I'm gonna take this call” She then stepped out to the
balcony, sliding the door closed behind her.
Delilah watched her daughter's retreating figure and murmured, “Shawn, why
would our girl have an acceptance letter from Parkside High School? The seal
seems legit, doesn't it?”
Shawn narrowed his eyes, pondering for a moment before shaking his head. “I
doubt it's a fake.”
“But the standards at Parkside High School... can Mira’s grades even get her
through the door? Didn't Summer mention her previous middle school was the
kind you had to pay to get in?” Knowing her daughter’s poor academic
performance was precisely why Delilah doubted the Parkside High School
acceptance letter.
Shawn, thoughtful, simply said, “Don’t overthink it. You gotta have faith in your
daughter.”
Delilah sighed. “It's not that I don’t trust her. I'm just afraid she’s been duped!”

Shawn looked at her curiously.
Delilah couldn't help but express her
worry, “Our daughter was raised in a
small town, unfamiliar with the
harshness of the world. Think about
it. Where did this Parkside High
School transfer acceptance come
from?” The content is on

“Isn't it from the school? Where else
could it be from?” Shawn grew even
more confused by his wife's anxiety.
Delilah scratched her head. “What I
mean is, could our daughter have
gotten mixed up with the wrong
crowd? Remember when we visited
her old town and asked her teacher
about her? Do you remember the
things he said?” At that Shawn's
brows furrowed slightly, and he
glanced toward his daughter, who
was now standing on the balcony.
talking on the phone. She was
casually resting her arm on the
railing, fingertips tapping
rhythmically. The sliding door
muffled her voice, making it
impossible to discern her
conversation. However, she soon
hung up and turned around. Her deep
eyes met Shawn's gaze, and she
nonchalantly raised an eyebrow as if
she knew someone had been
watching her. The content is on
