Chapter 329 Don’t neglect your own child.

William remained indifferent to the middle-aged man’s attitude.

It was like a dragon not caring about an ant’s disdain, and besides, he had no interest in any Parent-Teacher Association.

Sofia wasn’t a kindergarten teacher, and during the parent meeting, it was another teacher wearing glasses who spoke to the parents. Towards the end, there was also a mention of establishing a parent committee.

At that time, the children were playing outside on the playground, leaving only the parents in the classroom. The idea was for each parent to fill out a form with their professional information and what they could contribute to the parent committee.

Some families saw this as an opportunity to showcase their influence.

The middle-aged man sitting next to William took a Montblanc pen from his suit pocket and leisurely wrote down his job information.

Chairman of Starlight Magic Zoo, offering free visits for the children of the class.

Just then, Matthew, the owner of the French restaurant Le Chateau de Paris, walked in.

“Mr. Lewis, what brings you here today? Please, have a seat,” the middle-aged man said as he got up to greet Matthew, then turned to William, “Buddy, can you give up your seat?”

William glanced at him. This attitude, and he’s asking him to move?

He was sitting next to Amy’s designated spot.

Matthew also noticed William and greeted the middle-aged man with a smile, “Mr. Torres, good to see you.” Then he turned to William with a smile, “Mr. Johnson, what brings you here? Is your child also attending this school?”

William has a good impression of Matthew and nodded, saying, “My neighbor had something to attend to and couldn’t get away, so I’m attending the parent-teacher meeting for her child.”

“Mr. Johnson is really kind-hearted. You’re so young and don’t look like someone who has kids.” Matthew smiled and took a seat in an empty chair next to him.

Mr. Torres, named Oliver Torres, noticed Matthew’s somewhat lukewarm attitude towards him but didn’t feel embarrassed. Instead, he naturally took a seat next to Matthew.

“Mr. Lewis, what are your thoughts on the Hudson Yards project…?”

Just as Oliver began speaking, Matthew laughed and said, “Mr. Torres, today we’re here for the parent-teacher conference. Let’s set aside business matters for now. Our main focus today should be on our children’s education.”

After exchanging greetings with Matthew, William didn’t engage in much more conversation. However, Matthew’s gaze occasionally swept over William.

“Mr. Johnson, are you busy with your college courses?” Matthew began, smiling, as he continued to make conversation with William.

William shook his head slightly and said, “Not too busy, or else I wouldn’t have come to help with Amy’s parent-teacher conference today.”

He was known for frequently skipping classes, so of course, he wasn’t busy.

Matthew paused, sighed, and said, “Mr. Johnson, I’ll be frank with you. My child is quite mischievous. I wonder if you might have the time to tutor him, or maybe even teach him to play the violin.”

William didn’t outright refuse but suggested, “For that, you should directly contact Ms. Lee. After all, she’s more professional.”

Although Matthew was quite generous, William had no interest in taking on the task of tutoring another child in violin.

Matthew said, “I’ve asked Ms. Lee. She’s resigning tomorrow. My son’s had quite a few teachers, but in my opinion, you would be the best teacher for him.”

Oliver, overhearing their conversation, didn’t dare to interrupt. Was this young man just an ordinary college student?

Why was Matthew so keen on him?

Given Matthew’s wealth and status, it wouldn’t be difficult to find any top-tier teacher for his child.

Hiring an ordinary college student to teach his child was indeed unusual.

Matthew, apart from owning a high-end French restaurant, had various real estate investments nationwide and owned ranches across the country. He also invested in movies – a true tycoon.

Although Oliver was also a big boss, compared to Matthew, he was significantly less influential. If Matthew were willing to give even a small fraction of his business to Oliver, the latter’s annual income would surely double.

How could he not try his best to please such a person?

When William heard Matthew say this, he remained unmoved and said, “I’m quite lazy and don’t really enjoy teaching kids. Besides, your child must be only about four years old, right? It’s too early for him to start learning the violin.”

“That’s truly a pity,” Matthew responded, not pressing the matter further. William had already refused, and it would be inappropriate for Matthew to continue, especially mentioning any monetary offers.

From their few brief interactions, it seemed to Matthew that William wasn’t in need of money, at least judging by the watch he wore on his wrist. Not overly expensive, but still worth tens of thousands of dollars.

What was most important to Matthew was the air about William, which he found exceptionally unique. With his years of experience in assessing people, he felt that if his son could get even a bit of guidance from William, he would surely excel.

And then there was Alice, the girl William had dined with the last time. Matthew had realized who she was.

The granddaughter of Charles Turner, no less!

Rumored to be the future heir of the Turner family.

Birds of a feather flock together. Could someone who dined with Alice at his upscale French restaurant be simple?

Oliver, listening from the side, was twitching at the corners of his mouth. What was this young man thinking, turning down a request from Matthew?

In New York City, countless people wished to connect with Matthew. Gaining his approval could set someone up for life.

“Mr. Johnson? Aren’t you just a college student?” Oliver was genuinely perplexed by this young man.

William glanced at him but didn’t respond.

Because William had also called Maria to talk about Amy’s situation, Maria finally arrived at the school gate to pick up Amy.

She had no idea her daughter had been through such an ordeal, as Amy never asked her to come to the school.

Back when she ran a bar, Maria hardly had time to look after Amy, leaving everything to her father due to the business hours.

Now, running a breakfast business, she still had to get up very early in the morning. Coupled with some recent events, Maria was physically and emotionally exhausted, naturally leaving her no time to drop off or pick up Amy from kindergarten.

Standing at the kindergarten gate and seeing Amy, Maria couldn’t help but burst into tears.

Upon seeing her mother, Amy also ran over with her little legs, hugging her, and asked in a soft voice, “Mommy, why are you crying?”

Maria lifted Amy into her arms and said, “Amy, how about Mommy comes to pick you up every day from now on?”

Amy shook her head, “No!”

Maria was taken aback and asked, “Why not?”

“You wake up too early, Mommy. You don’t have to come pick me up.” Amy didn’t mention anything to Maria about the other kids at school saying she had no parents.

Maria was momentarily speechless, feeling a lump in her throat and eventually didn’t say anything. Holding Amy, she turned to William and said, “William, thank you!”

“It’s nothing,” William replied, glancing to the side. Alice was standing at the school gate with Luna and Erebus.

Matthew and Oliver also noticed Alice.

Even Matthew took the initiative to greet Alice. Uptoodated from n/0/v𝒆lbIn.(co/m

If Matthew was considered a real tycoon, then Alice could only be described as coming from an ultra-wealthy family. Building a good relationship with her was always a wise decision.
