Chapter 366: Chapter 366: Does He Know the Relationship Between Yolanda Greenwood and Cooper Coldson?

Lola Gold tossed and turned and finally fell asleep past one in the morning.

However, just as she fell asleep, she heard her phone ringing—it was clear someone had sent a message.

"Who is it? Crazy!" Lola grumbled inwardly, turned over, and continued to sleep. But before long, the phone rang again.

Yolanda Greenwood, lying next to her, was evidently awakened by the noise too. "Check it out; it might be urgent at this hour."

"Sorry, Yolanda." Lola said apologetically as she picked up her phone and glanced at it, then prepared to get out of bed. "Yolanda, sleep well. I’ll go to the living room for a bit."

She quietly glanced at Little Ella. Luckily, the little one was sound asleep and hadn’t been awakened.

"Go ahead, come back and rest soon." Yolanda advised.

Holding her phone, Lola walked into the living room, her face already looking upset. She had just glanced at the screen—it was Caleb Sullivan who sent the messages, and every single one of them was over a thousand words.

"This guy..." she muttered grimly, then opened her WeChat and began reading carefully.

The general content was that Caleb had wanted to make a good impression on Yolanda Greenwood that day, hoping to make Lola look good. But he explained that his family had spent all their money on his upcoming wedding. He mentioned his mother’s remarriage and how raising him wasn’t easy—emphasizing that, like Lola, he deeply cared about his mother.

He mentioned that the wedding planning was ongoing, but Lola had disappeared for two days, which worried his mother. He wanted Lola to calm down and not do something she might regret.

His final text read: Lola, I’m still at your house door. Think it through and come out; let’s have a proper talk.

Fuming, Lola flung open the door and saw Caleb sitting on the ground.

He looked defeated and despondent. When he saw Lola coming out, he immediately stood up and hugged her tightly. "Lola, I knew it; you wouldn’t give up on our relationship so easily. I was wrong. Can we make up? From now on, I’ll listen to everything you say."

Lola swallowed her anger, the words she wanted to lash out stuck in her throat. Back then, choosing Caleb had been largely because he was so different from Christopher Coldson. Christopher had lived a worry-free life, never knowing what hardships were, whereas Caleb’s experience was the complete opposite.

As far as she knew, Caleb had lived under someone else’s roof since he understood life, spending his days pleasing his stepfather’s family, easing his mother’s burdens, scared of dragging her down.

Lola thought Caleb was now using the same approach to treat her—trying to gain Yolanda Greenwood’s favor—but he had gone about it the wrong way. She shouldn’t sentence him for that. Plus, her mother liked Caleb, and with their wedding approaching, she didn’t want to complicate matters further.

"Caleb, Yolanda isn’t the rich girl you imagine her to be. The path she’s walked to get here is filled with hardships that surpass your imagination. She doesn’t look down on anyone, especially not my future husband."

Lola stared sincerely at Caleb. "And you don’t need to deliberately please her. I believe as you get to know each other, you’ll come to like her more and more."

With that, the two reconciled.

The next morning, Yolanda woke up to see Lola Gold with dark circles under her eyes, preparing breakfast. She knew Lola hadn’t returned to the bedroom all night.

"You’re up. Go freshen up—we’re about to eat breakfast." Lola smiled and said, "I’ll go wake up Princess."

"Okay." Yolanda didn’t say much. She guessed the two of them had reconciled. Though she didn’t much like Caleb Sullivan, she barely knew him. Besides, as an outsider, it wasn’t her place to say too much.

Elsewhere, Elsie Adams showed up unusually early today, waiting outside Sadie Connor’s office.

"Elsie, morning!" Sadie, an early riser herself, looked a bit surprised to see her there. "What’s up? Something urgent this early?"

She opened the office door. "Come in and let’s talk."

"It’s nothing really." Elsie followed her in. "Lately, we’ve had a new student join our class."

"I know. It’s Ella Greenwood, Yolanda’s daughter, right?" Sadie glanced up. "What about her? Is there a problem?"

"Nothing for now. I’m just a bit concerned." Elsie chuckled bitterly. "You know, I’m originally a child psychologist, not a trained kindergarten teacher."

Sadie nodded. "I’m aware of that, but you’ve been doing great. The parents of your class are very pleased with you. No need to stress about that."

"Sadie, you know that Ella and Gabriel have the same illness." Elsie watched Sadie’s expression. "I’ve been keeping an eye on Gabriel, and it’s manageable. But now there’s Ella, too. I’ve been feeling anxious lately and haven’t been sleeping well—it’s like I’m on edge all the time."

Sadie nodded thoughtfully. "It’s not easy taking care of them both, I get that. But Elsie, don’t stress too much. Mr. Coldson and Yolanda Greenwood are reasonable people. If any issues do arise, we’ll tackle them together."

"Mm." Elsie forced a weak smile but didn’t seem ready to leave.

"Something else on your mind?" Sadie asked again.

"Actually... not really." Elsie shook her head. "Forget it. I’ll do my best to take care of them. I just needed to vent a bit—to ease my own stress."

Sadie smiled approvingly, looking warmly at Elsie. "You care so much about the kids—it shows you’re already an excellent teacher. Don’t stress yourself out. Keep at it. I believe Mr. Coldson chose well."

"Thanks for the encouragement, Sadie." Elsie tentatively asked, "By the way, how did Yolanda Greenwood find our kindergarten? You two seem to know each other already?"

"Oh, my daughter’s a fan of hers. She loves the jewelry Yolanda designs—she even bought me a few pieces, and they’re truly lovely."

Sadie’s admiration for Yolanda was evident. "As for how she found our kindergarten, I think someone recommended it. Then she found some online information and came to us on her own. Sort of serendipity, I guess."

"I see. That’s quite fortuitous." Elsie didn’t press further. "Alright, the kids will be arriving soon. I’ll get ready."

Deep down, Elsie understood that the kindergarten was custom-made for Gabriel Coldson and was hardly advertised. Few knew about it, so whoever referred it to Yolanda Greenwood might’ve done so intentionally.

But who could that person be? Did they know about Cooper Coldson and Yolanda Greenwood’s connection?

Clearly, Sadie wouldn’t have Little Ella transferred, and Yolanda definitely wouldn’t give up such a perfect kindergarten opportunity for her child. If Elsie wanted them gone, she’d have to do it herself.

With that in mind, Elsie headed straight to the classroom.
