Chapter 590: Chapter 590 This Matter is Very Strange_1


    Jane McCain’s gossip primarily came from her mother’s connections and the news from entertainment weeklies. Purple Summers and Zara Jameson didn’t pay much attention to this, so they seemed rather uninformed.


    But a private tutor being dismissed by the Dous Family wasn’t exactly big news. It wouldn’t bemon knowledge, and since Jane’s mother had no connections with the Dous family, how could Jane know about their affairs?


    Purple Summers was puzzled.


    Jane said with a smile, “Bastian called me and told me.”


    Sebastian Dous had his first cell phone very early in life, which was a children’s watch phone.


    “Bastian called you?” Purple Summers was even more surprised; her expression was almost one of shock.


    Beside her, Zara Jameson didn’t sense anything unusual and smiled, “I couldn’t tell, Jane, you seem to have a way with kids.”


    “So-so, hahaha…” Janeughed.


    Purple Summers asked, “Did Young Master Dous mention the reason?”


    “The private tutor was hired when Bastian was five, at a critical time when he was transitioning from kindergarten to elementary school. Mrs. Dous couldn’t look after him because of her depression, so Mr. Dous hired her,” Jane exined. “Now Bastian is almost eight, has adapted to elementary school life and is very smart. He really doesn’t need a tutor’s help, and that tutor only had an English level of Grade 4, not much better than Bastian, so there was really no point in keeping her at the Dous home.”<div>


    “No point? Then why not dismiss her earlier? Why now?” Purple Summers narrowed her eyes, filled with suspicion as she stared at Jane, “Couldn’t be… that you’ve been badmouthing her, could it?”


    Jane blushed slightly, “Don’t be like that. Do I look like the kind of person who gossips behind someone’s back?”


    Purple Summers stared at her: “…”


    Jane said awkwardly, “I really didn’t badmouth her. I just told Bastian that for English… you could find a teacher with better spokennguage skills, to practice more…”


    A tutor for kindergarten kids might have good academic qualifications, but their spoken English would definitely not be a match for an old hand like Jane.


    Jane would travel abroad several times a year with her mother to attend various fashion shows, mingling exclusively with foreigners. She didn’t just have good spoken English; she could even imitate different ents from several states.


    “So… are you now Young Master Dous’s spoken English teacher?” Purple Summers asked.


    “Of course not!” Jane immediately shook her head. “I can barely finish my own homework; how could I have time to tutor someone else? It’s just that I asionally talk to him on the phone, using a foreignnguage tomunicate and help him with his pronunciation.”


    After Jane finished, she couldn’t help but feel sentimental, “Bastian really is the smartest and most sensible kid I’ve ever met. Ah, what was I doing at the age of seven or eight? ying with Barbie dolls?”


    “You’re still ying with Barbie dolls,” Zara Jameson teased her.


    Jane immediately retorted, “That’s different, okay? Now I design fashions and essories for the dolls. I y in a very high-end and meaningful way!”


    “After all, it’s still ying with dolls!” Zara Jameson continued tough at her.


    Purple Summers was silent on the side, her expression suddenly became somewhat somber.


    Jane McCain and Zara Jameson kept chatting back and forth.


    Jane said, “If my future kids could be as smart and well-behaved as Bastian, that would be great. He’s like a genius contestant, winning right from the starting line… Oh right, he’s even asked me to y baseball with him this weekend.”


    “He asked you to y baseball?” Purple Summers was surprised.


    “Ah, I know it’s a bit inappropriate to go to the Dous home just to y baseball with him,” Jane sighed. “But he looked so pitiful. His mom died in a car ident, and after finally getting a stepmom who adored him, she’s now divorcing and moving out. Mr. Dous is furious; the servants are gossiping every day, and no one’s looking after him… I just couldn’t bear to say no.”


    Purple Summers felt there was something very strange about this.


    She wanted to persuade Jane not to go, but when the words reached her lips, she couldn’t find the right reason.<div>


    She thought: Let’s just see how things go.
