Chapter 1589

The girl was already a bit of a scaredy-cat, and Rosalynn's gaze only made her more nervous.

Rosalynn smiled gently and said, "You're Alison, right? Ivy told me about you. She said you're the most diligent student in your class, and I never expected you to be this pretty!" Alison was taken aback.

She subconsciously touched her face.

Pretty?

Her grandma and aunt always said she was ugly.

Her mom also said she wasn't pretty...

Her mom always warned her not to focus too much on her looks, because no matter how she dressed up, she wouldn't become pretty.

Instead, she should spend this time on studying.

That way, because of her outstanding academic performance, she might catch the eye of a rich guy in the future!

"Thank you, you...you're pretty too." Alison's voice was very small, and her face turned red after saying those words.

"Sir, can I have a private talk with Alison?" Rosalynn looked at the principal.

The principal seemed a bit hesitant. He might not be so worried about other students.

But Alison was too introverted. It was only after some persuasion yesterday that she agreed to go home with the principal.

As soon as she entered the house, she hid in her room like a kitten.

"Alison, this is Ivy's mom..."

"I'll be fine." Alison nodded lightly.

The principal immediately breathed a sigh of relief: "Then I'll go check on the other students."

After speaking, he also whispered to Rosalynn.

"This kid is a bit timid, you...you have to bear with her a bit."

"I understand."

A moment later, the principal gently closed the door.

Rosalynn sat in front of the sofa and then beckoned gently to Alison.

Alison timidly walked over: "I'm sorry, my mom did something wrong yesterday. I apologize to you and Ivy on behalf of her."

"Ivy doesn't blame you. She's actually quite worried about you."

Rosalynn said softly.

Alison's small hands clenched into fists.

"I think you're a smart kid, so I'll just say it straight, your mom is sick now, and your dad...has another woman. I want to know what you think?" Alison's small body shook violently.

"I don't know..."

"You have to make a choice now." Rosalynn didn't beat around the bush, "Of course, you have a third option, which is not to choose anyone." Alison's pupils shook violently.

"But I am just a child." Alison's fists clenched tighter.

"So what?" Rosalynn retorted.

Alison lowered her head, her body trembling lightly.

Going with dad...actually meant living with grandma and aunt.

Just thinking about her grandma and aunt's harshness made her unable to control her fear.

Mom...

Whenever she thought of her mom, she could only think of her mom acting crazy in the cafeteria.

"Is the lady my dad's seeing going to give dad a son?" Alison asked quietly.

Rosalynn nodded: "That's what I heard.'

"Is my mom really sick?" She hesitated a bit before asking again.

"She's in the hospital now, if you want to see her, I can take you there.' Rosalynn replied.

Rosalynn anticipated that Alison might ask to see her mom next.

However...

"I don't want to." Alison shook her head, then clenched her fists again, looking firmly at Rosalynn, "Ma'am, I want to try living on my own, can you help me?"
