In this preschool, the head of the parents‘ association was also the representative for all the classes in the entire grade. Thus, members of the association from other classes would often come over.
Last time, Cecilia had met a few people but didn’t fully get to know them.
These individuals, as long as they had some family assets, had all been discreetly approached by Miranda for collaboration.
This was also why Helen had no idea about the other parents‘ betrayal earlier, only stumbling upon this information just now.
Given that her family was teetering on the brink of bankruptcy and had no money, Miranda naturally wouldn’t seek her out, nor did she care about the votes from one or two impoverished families.
Before the selection of the new president began, Miranda approached Cecilia, challenging her publicly, “Do you really think a disabled person can lead the homeowner’s committee, Cecilia?”
She pointed to the hearing aid that adorned the latter’s car.
“What if your hearing aid breaks while someone else is speaking? Surely, we wouldn’t have to wait for you to replace it with a new one, right?”
Cecilia didn’t show any signs of irritation towards her provocation, and her expression remained. calm.
“I feel that, compared to people with disabilities, those who are physically sound but harbor darkness within are even less suited to serve as the president of the parents‘ association. After all, the group exists to serve the children. Those with a dark heart would only plot harm against children, wouldn’t they?”
“What are you babbling about? Your child clearly started it by harming my son first!” Miranda instantly lost her temper.
Cecilia looked at her coldly. “Deep down, you know who is really trying to harm whom.”
It was astonishing to see Felix, a mere child, thinking of taking people to settle scores with Elliot at the latter’s own home. What was even more shocking was that Miranda not only didn’t stop him, but even aided and abetted in this scheme. It was truly an eye–opening spectacle.
Miranda wanted to continue her argument with Cecilia, but the arrival of the teacher and the principal interrupted her, and she had no choice but to temporarily hold her tongue.
After the principal arrived, he briefly spoke with the members of the parents‘ association present, discussing the children’s growth over the past year.
Then, he began to let everyone cast their votes, choosing the head of the association.

Ever since Miranda had joined, no one else vied for the president’s seat. Everyone knew they couldn’t compete with her household.
Yet today.
, on the big screen, Cecilia’s name surprisingly appeared.
The principal introduced. “Last year, the son of Ms. Smith, Jonathan, transferred to our school from abroad. She told me she has ample time and is interested in running for the president of the parents‘ association, aiming to contribute to our community. To run for this position, Ms. Smith has even donated fifty million to our school while simultaneously buying the majority of our school’s shares. This makes her the largest shareholder of our school right now.”
Upon hearing this, some of the unsuspecting mothers couldn’t help but express their surprise in hushed whispers.
So, not only did she donate fifty million, but she’s also become the largest shareholder of the school?
What’s her background? Could she possibly be wealthier and more influential than Miranda?
Some people who knew her didn’t think much of it and would privately tell other mothers, “Oh. her? She’s just living off her husband’s savings and insurance money. I don’t think it’ll be long before she cries poverty.”
“So, that’s how it is. Who’s her husband, anyway?”
“Nathaniel Rainsworth. He was originally the CEO of Rainsworth Group, but he went blind after a car accident. Where else do you think she got her money from?”
“So, are you saying that Cecilia and Miranda are actually cousins?”
The mothers loved nothing more than a good piece of gossip, and this sparked all sorts of discussions amongst them.
Before the voting segment, the two candidates took the stage to deliver their speeches, with Miranda going first.
She stepped onto the stage, her face filled with unwavering determination and confidence.
“Ladies, I don’t have much to say. I trust that you all will you all will support me.”
After speaking, she glanced at Cecilia and returned to her seat.
Beneath the seating area, applause erupted like thunder.
When Cecilia took the stage, the applause abruptly ceased. What replaced it was everyone whispering amongst themselves in disrespect.
Down below, Helen was sweating profusely for her.
