Chapter 482 Remember the Little Boy in Tennessee?

Flushing, Queens, New York——

The moving work was completed smoothly. Since the house that Lainie bought was fully decorated, Uncle Ben and his family basically didn't need to spend much time to move in.

The entire house covers an area of ​​about 150 square meters, including two garages, and there is an independent yard and garden outside the house.

The interior space is two floors, including a small attic.

The first floor is the living room, dining room and kitchen, bathroom and a small storage room. The decoration is ready, so Aunt Mei and her family don't have to worry about it at all.

The second floor is three separate bedrooms and a small study.

The master bedroom belongs to the two elders, and little Parker lives in the second bedroom. If nothing unexpected happens, this will be his residence until the little guy grows up.

As for the other two guest rooms, they are left for Lainie and her family. Although the old couple knew that these girls would not come back often, they still insisted on moving all the things Lainie had left in the house in Hell's Kitchen.

In the words of the two elders, with these things, they can also look forward to Lainie coming back to live here and there, and have something to look forward to.

Lying comfortably on the brand new and soft sofa, Lainie looked at little Parker who was touching things here and there excitedly, and smiled at Aunt Mei.

"Don't be too happy, I have already arranged your admission to school. I will take you there tomorrow. There will be a small test to see how your academic performance is..."

Before Lainie finished her words, little Parker's confident response came from the storage room:

"Don't worry! I can definitely get all A's!"

Although the voice was a little far away, you can still hear that the little guy is full of confidence in his full-hearted answer.

I don't know who was reluctant to leave his friends at school when he heard that the family was moving away...

But separation is always a normal human emotion. Little Parker was already at the age of admission to school, and Lainie just brought this process forward by half a year.

The new school is called "Midtown Middle School". Yes, it is the "Midtown High School" in the "Midtown High School".

Compulsory education in the United States is 3 years longer than in Ryan's previous life, that is, in addition to elementary school and middle school, high school in the United States is also part of compulsory education, so it adds up to 12 years.

And unlike the 6+3+3 in the previous life, the educational process of elementary school, middle school and high school in the United States is mostly 5+3+4.

Therefore, although Parker is less than 12 years old, he has reached the age of entering junior high school.

As an affiliated middle school of Midtown High School, although the teaching quality of Midtown Middle School cannot be compared with those affiliated middle schools of well-known universities, it is also a top-ranked institution among all kinds of middle schools of the same level.

According to Parker's learning ability, it should not be difficult to attend a "preparatory class" about half a year in advance to adapt to the new environment in the future.

"Skye has changed a lot since I first saw her a year ago..."

Looking at the young figure who was playing with little Parker like a child, Aunt May's eyes were full of pampering and a little worried.

"Speaking of which, about the news of her father..."

Uncle Ben, who was also staring at the two naughty ghosts, asked in a deep voice.

He remembered that Lainie had mentioned before that Skye had found some clues about her biological father, who was said to be a doctor.

"Well, there are some clues, but it's not certain yet."

Laini did not tell the old couple about the past of the guy named "Carl Johnson". First, the content was really anti-human, and second, she was afraid that the old couple would worry again.

The past of herself and little Parker was already tragic enough. If the old couple knew about Skye's life experience that was comparable to a bizarre legend, she was afraid that the old couple would not be able to accept it.

Carefully noticing the ambiguity in Lainie's words, the old couple couldn't help but look at each other, and then tacitly changed the topic and didn't talk much about this matter.

The old couple were old and couldn't help much, but they could see that the child had always been weighed down by a big stone in his heart.

However, the person who tied the bell must untie it, and all they could do was to pay attention silently and give a hug.

Buzz~

At this time, Lainie's mobile phone on the coffee table rang, and the caller was Tony.

There was no hiding anything. After Lainie asked for the opinions of the two elders, she picked up the transparent holographic mobile phone and connected the call.

"What's wrong? What happened?"

Looking at the unfolded holographic screen of the mobile phone, Lainie was a little surprised, wondering how this guy had time to call her?

Could it be that something happened to Roddy?

"Nothing, the development of the Extremis serum is progressing very quickly, we should be able to cure him before you come back."

Tony on the other end of the communication channel looked at the house decoration behind Lainie, and was about to complain:

"Is this the new house you asked Jarvis to find? It's really..."

But at this moment he noticed that there were two people sitting next to Lainie, and they were the Parkers who had met once before.

So he quickly swallowed back the half of the unspoken words, and said awkwardly under Lainie's threatening eyes:

"It's really... Not bad, it's really good..."

Glazing at this guy, Lainie, who knew his temper, had no good way to deal with him, so she had to change the subject:

"Why did you call? If the lab needs help, Skye can go back in the afternoon."

"Huh? Why?"

Skye, who was secretly tying his ears, was unhappy when he heard this. He had just arrived for a few days and finally had time to relax. Why did he have to be sent back?

Ignoring Skye's protest, Lainie changed her posture to prevent the girl from peeping at the screen.

Tony on the other side of the communication raised his eyebrows and wanted to laugh, but he also took over the conversation and talked about business.

"Remember the little boy in Tennessee?"

"Harry?"

Laini narrowed her eyes. The little boy Tony mentioned was undoubtedly Harry Keener from Rose Hill, Tennessee.

"Well, I provided the child with an 'education fund'. I originally planned to treat it as an investment, but..."

In fact, the so-called "education fund" was just an excuse by Tony.

After all, what kind of "education fund" can be rich enough to help Harry's family pay off their debts while providing the child with a room full of experimental equipment and an American muscle car?

"But the child refused."

Lainie raised her eyebrows when she heard this, a little surprised.

She had actually expected that Tony would give the child some "gifts", after all, that was the case in the original book in her memory.

But Lainie heard what Tony meant, and the child not only did not accept it, but also refused it?

Tony also smiled with interest at this.

"The child sent me an email yesterday, saying that he wanted to leave Tennessee and move to New York to go to school."

"Huh? Move to New York?"

Lainie now understood the child's idea a little bit, and he had this idea.

Although the environment in Tennessee is very good, the location of Rose Hill is still a little far from the nearby cities.

To put it nicely, it is called the suburbs, and to put it bluntly, it is the countryside.

Although with the child's intelligence, it is not difficult to get into a good university in the future.

But the suburbs are still suburbs, and the education level is still not comparable to that of big cities like New York.

The child obviously has a lot of ideas about his future. Although he is not very old, it can be judged from the previous few words that he has already possessed maturity and courage far beyond his peers.

Of course, it is hard to guarantee that the child's mother has influenced the child's decision.

"What are you going to do?"

Lainie asked back with interest.

She didn't believe that Tony called just to tell her. He should have made a decision and called just to hear her opinion.

Sure enough, Tony in the holographic image pinched his chin and sank for a moment.

"I can give him this opportunity. The child is indeed a promising talent. It's a pity to let him stay in Rose Hill."

"But what if this email comes from his mother?"

It's not Lainie who speculates about others, but facing this opportunity to reach the sky in one step, it's hard to guarantee that anyone will be greedy.

Harry helped Tony, so Tony is willing to help the child. This is a matter between the two of them.

But if the child's mother intends to use Harry to fulfill her own desires, then the nature of this "education fund" will completely change.

"So, I want to give that family a test."

"Oh? What do you need me to do?"
