Oh Mr General - Chapter 242

On the way to Leah’s private school, Royal Institute of Adelaide, Leah’s new personal butler, Alexa, was driving the vehicle, while Gray, Sato and Leah sat at the back of the car.

“You sure you will be fine, sweety?” Sato asked again worriedly. At the beginning, he tried to act as the cooler parent that would let his child do whatever she wanted. Yet, He never knew how much a parent worried until he became one himself.

“Yes, Daddy. I will be fine.” In the end, Leah was the one that was doing the comforting. The little bird wanted to leave the nest and yet, the parent bird was afraid that it would not be able to fly and fall. Leah turned to look at Gray who was sitting stiffly by her side. With a light pat on Gray’s arm, she comforted her other father too, “Papa, don’t worry.”

Of course, after seeing how relaxed his daughter was, Gray’s body untensed naturally on its own. “You little one. Okay, Papa will not worry for your sake. Go make some friends and enjoy school.”

The Royal Institute of Adelaide was a branch of private schools that originated from Country S. Country S was ruled by a Royal Family, Adelaide. In the past, the king of the country wanted to establish a world renown education institute that was centered around high running officials. The private school would be a safe haven for the officials to send their children off to school and in that sense, provide the parents security for their children. As centuries went by, the Royal Institute of Adelaide opened other branches in other countries and it housed many famous alumni all over the world. Country U’s Royal Institute of Adelaide was the first branch that opened outside of Country S and its long-standing history of good education and school security led to Gray and Sato choosing this school for Leah.

After a thirty-minute drive, the car came to a stop outside of the main gate of the institute. The security at the front gate scanned their verification pass that helps determine whether they were allowed to enter the school premises. Seeing that their verification pass was legitimate, the gates were open for them to enter.

The campus was nothing out of the ordinary for the Tobion family. It could be said that the campus was around the same size as the Tobion Family Compound in Country Y. Even then, the aesthetics wasn’t even on par with their house gardens. Still, it was an impressive school that had a myriad of amenities and school clubs for students to participate in. Arriving at the main school building, the family of three got out of the car together.

In the principal’s officer, cold sweat started forming slowly on the principal’s forehead when he was in the presence of Gray and Sato. It wasn’t that they did not want to be warmer in terms of reception, but the fact was that they were very unwilling to let go of their beloved daughter.

“Mr and Mr Tobion, please be reassured that the safety of your daughter is in good hands in our institute.” Gerald tried his best to pacify the situation.

In the end, Sato was the first to relax his expression. He turned and looked at Leah who was dangling her feet off the sofa innocently. They were this far in already and the decision had been made. With a calm, but assertive voice, Sato spoke for him and his husband, “We shall put our trust in your school’s security and education system. If I were to ever hear about anyone bullying my daughter in this institute, you can say goodbye to your job. Understood?”

“Un..Understood.” This time Gerald’s face broke into cold sweat. He could not help, but stutter at such claims. If the Tobion family truly wanted to remove him from his position, it was as easy as swatting a fly. Pressing the intermission that lead to his assistant’s office, Gerald spoke in a slightly hurried voice, “Could you s..send in Ms Taylor to my office? The new student is ready to be taken to class.”

Arriving in the officer soon after the call was Ms Taylor, the new form teacher of Leah. The teacher was a young female teacher that had slightly chubby cheeks. Her friendly aura exuded positivity in the air and that in itself allowed for Gray and Sato to ease their nervousness by a bit.

“Mr and Mr Tobion, it is nice to meet you. My name is Olivia Taylor and I will be your daughter’s form teacher for the year.” Ms Taylor shook their hands confidently. Unlike the principal who knew of their identities, the form teacher knew nothing about them except for the fact that she would be having another student in her class.

“I will be leaving Leah in your care.” Gray spoke calmly. His hand was gently rubbing the top of Leah’s head.

“Do not worry. It is my job to make sure that Leah is well-integrated into the classroom. If there is nothing else, I will be taking her with me now to her new classroom, alright?”

“Mmm,” Gray acknowledged her question. Leah turned her body and gave her two fathers a hug over their legs. Sato and Gray reciprocated and gave her a hug back, “Go on and enjoy school. Alexa will be waiting for your after school.”

“Okay.” With a simple wave goodbye, Leah left the room holding hands with her new form teacher. In regards to Sato and Gray, the couple left the school premises right after seeing her off. Only then, could the principal finally release his breath.
