Chapter 349: Enlightened

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

The classrooms here had a front door and a back door, and Franklin was standing at the back door watching.

Lauren was in the classroom looking at the blackboard at the moment. The teacher had to take care of everyone in the class, so the current lesson…if Lauren remembered correctly, the math teacher had repeated the same thing for the third time!

She was getting sick of it!

She could even guess what the math teacher was going to say next.

From Franklin’s perspective, he could see the back of Lauren’s head and half of her face.

Lauren was staring at the blackboard very seriously, but it didn’t seem like she was thinking.

“Okay, students, we’ve already done this question before. Let’s see if you still remember how to do it.”

The mathematics teacher wrote a question about two-digit numbers on the blackboard before inviting the students to come up and do it.

Out of the two or three students who went up, only one student managed to do it correctly. Furthermore, she even used her fingers and toes to count for a long time before she was able to do it.

“Lauren has always performed very well in mathematics class. Generally speaking, if the students are unable to do the question, Lauren will definitely be able to do it.”

In the next second, the math teacher wrote a new math problem. No one in the class dared to raise their hands, so the math teacher naturally pointed at Lauren.

Sure enough, Lauren immediately gave an answer.

Judging from Lauren’s reaction speed and accuracy in solving the problem, she was indeed far ahead of the class by a large margin.

Franklin actually stood behind and watched the entire math class.

Even Carina felt a little bored. However, Franklin’s aura was too strong, so she didn’t dare to leave if Franklin didn’t say so.

After the math class, it was music class. She learned a ballad.

After the music teacher sang it once, she asked Lauren to lead everyone in singing.

“Lauren seems to have musical talent too. She’ll be able to understand the songs after listening to them once. The music teacher also said that Lauren seems to have perfec pitch. With such ability, it’ll be great to let her learn piano or other musical instruments.”

Lauren sang a line while standing on the podium, followed by a line from the children below.

It was not until Lauren sang for the third time that the rest of the children began to remember the melody.

Franklin looked away.

“Miss Bailey, let’s leave now.”

Once again, Carina brought Franklin back to the office.

“Mr. Torres? What are you doing today? Did something happen to Lauren at home?”

Due to Ruby’s incident, Carina was afraid that something might happen to her student.

“No, it’s just that Lauren told me last week that she wants to skip a grade and doesn’t want to continue studying in kindergarten,” said Franklin as he shook his head.

Carina was shocked when she heard this.

“Lauren said that she didn’t want to continue studying in kindergarten? She didn’t tell me about this. Did she say what the reason was?”

Franklin was very tall and had long legs. As he sat on the chair in the office, he looked out of place. However, he was calm and composed. He had a domineering aura that others did not have. He seemed to be able to adapt to any situation very well, no one dared to question him.

“She said that she has already learned everything there is to learn in kindergarten. She wants to learn other things. I think since you are Lauren’s form teacher, perhaps you can give her some advice.”

Miss Bailey nodded thoughtfully. “Actually, it’s not wrong for Lauren to think that way. From the feedback of her teachers, Lauren’s ability is indeed outstanding. Mr. Zander from the talent program, in particular, has praised Lauren many times. Lauren’s thinking and reaction speed are very fast, so the content of what she is learning now is indeed too simple for her.”

“So…Miss Bailey, do you think she should skip a grade?”

Miss Bailey smiled and shook her head. “My opinion is actually not important. Lauren’s opinion is the most important, isn’t it? This is her life. We are only helping her to move forward. When our kindergarten teachers are unable to help her, then it is indeed time to hand her over to the next group of people.”

Franklin was stunned and enlightened by Caren’s words.

Indeed, what she said made sense.

All this while, he had acted like a parent who restricted Lauren. However, he had never really thought about what Lauren wanted. He had only applied what he thought was good for Lauren.

Wasn’t this the common problem of many parents nowadays?

Even when he was young, he had gone through the same thing.. When he was young, it was his parents, Sean and Tina, who had imposed what they thought was good on him, making him unable to have a normal childhood like other children.
