Natalie's magical growth record

Chapter 390 The Uneasy Return

"Come on, we should go home."

After silently admiring the dusk scenery of Randall with the students for a while, Alina, who was carrying double luggage, finally broke this beautiful scene and lowered her head and suggested.

"Hey, teacher, won't you go back?"

Being caught off guard by such a reminder, Natalie couldn't help but tremble, then she forced herself to calm down, and raised her head and asked with some regret.

"As long as Natalie gets home safely, I will go back immediately."

Although Alina wanted to persuade the other party to go home in a more gentle way, but considering the current weather and her schedule tomorrow, she still defeated her soft heart and tied the two things together with a gentle attitude.

"OK…"

Hearing what the teacher said, although Natalie was still a little uneasy, she was embarrassed to continue to waste the teacher's time.

So, even though she was a little reluctant to give up, even though she was a little afraid of the blame of her family, she still took her own steps firmly, carrying her small symbolic bag of luggage, and walked on the way home.

dong dong dong~
  After three knocks on the door, Natalie's body immediately tensed up. After all, the school trip she and her mother had agreed on was only half a month, but due to a misty accident in the town of Selia, they actually returned to Rand. Your local time is a full day later than the agreed time.

Will her mother blame her?

When she thought of her mother's aggressive look when she was angry, Natalie couldn't help but feel scared, and even her slightly excited mood disappeared under the destruction of this fear.

"It's okay. I've already explained the delay to my wife, so Natalie doesn't have to worry."

Sensing the student's worry, Alina couldn't help but smile helplessly. While using magic to reduce the weight in her hand, she took out a finger to comfort the student.

"Really? But it's really scary when mom is angry..."

Natalie was still a little uneasy, especially when they stood at the door of the house and waited for several minutes but no one responded. This made Natalie more and more frightened, and she took several steps back in fear.

"Maybe…"

Alina was about to say some words of comfort when the door in front of the two of them suddenly opened, and then, a face that was extremely familiar to Natalie, but made her feel like she was from another world, appeared in front of her.

"Mom..." Hiding behind the teacher, he carefully glanced at his mother in front of him. After finding that his mother did not show any dissatisfaction, he added in a low voice, "I'm back..."

As soon as the words came out of her mouth, Natalie felt a pang of regret. Because she found that what she just said sounded quite strenuous even to herself, not to mention her mother who was several steps away from her.

So, in order to prevent the situation from becoming awkward, Natalie immediately repeated what she had just said and used [Voice Transmission] magic to transmit her words to her mother in front of her.

"Teacher Christo, thank you for making a special trip to send Natalie back. Thank you for your hard work!"

With that said, Mrs. Arinor stepped forward, took the small suitcase belonging to Natalie from the other party's hand, and then bowed deeply to Alina.

During this process, she did not look at Natalie, as if there was no one else behind Alina, which made Natalie feel unspeakable sadness in addition to fear.

"Madam, you're welcome, this is what I should do." Without stopping the other party from taking the luggage, Alina responded to the parents of the students in front of her in the same polite way.

"Then Teacher Christo, we won't waste your time anymore. Please be careful on the way."

After saying that, Mrs. Arinor took Natalie back to the house.

During this process, Natalie had been looking forward to her mother being able to talk to her. Even if it was to blame her and ask her why she came back so late, she felt that it would make her feel much more at ease than being silent now.

Is my mother so angry that she doesn’t want to pay attention to me?
  This was Natalie's first reaction.

But she quickly dismissed such thoughts, because from the conversation between her mother and the teacher just now, she could see that her mother did not seem that angry. At least based on her understanding of her mother's temper in the past few years, if she really encountered something worthy of being angry, her mother would never maintain such a good mood.

So, since she is not angry, it means she is still safe...

"Natalie."

However, as soon as this idea was implemented, Natalie heard her mother's voice next to her. It was bland and she could not hear any emotional ups and downs. She was neither happy nor angry.

"Selena and the others came back three days ago."

When she said this, Natalie found that her mother's tone was still so flat that she still couldn't grasp the corresponding emotion for a while.

But soon, such a sense of luck was extinguished by her.

Because Natalie immediately realized that her sister set off one day earlier than them. This time period three days ago proved that her sister's school was very punctual, not early, and never overtime.

More importantly, she knew that her sister and the others were unable to rent a magic carriage with smaller space but faster speed because of the large number of people. In other words, even though my sister and the others wereted a lot of time on the road, they returned within the estimated time.

On the other hand, when she, her teacher, and Master Haitang went on a school trip, they not only took a shortcut and took the private carriage provided by the Maxwell family, but they also returned successfully a full day later than expected.

So, mom must still be angry, right?
  The reason why he had such a good attitude towards Teacher Alina just now must be because he did not dare to blame the teacher because of his status as a teacher.

But that's fine, she was the one who originally proposed to stay and help. Now that my mother doesn't blame the teacher and the others, it's a blessing in misfortune.

"Sit here for a moment. Mom has something to tell you."

Just when Natalie was giving up on herself and wanted to find hope among the many misfortunes, Mrs. Erinault, who was carrying two bags and one suitcase, suddenly spoke with sincerity, causing Natalie's spirit to return to the tense and unknown state involuntarily. measures.

What should I do, should I apologize first, or sit quietly and wait for her to come back?

After hearing such words from her mother, Natalie couldn't help but become nervous again. She wanted to raise her head to peek at what was going on upstairs, but she was afraid that such behavior would make her mother even more angry, so she gave up.

"Come, tell mom now why you came back so late?"

Unfortunately, things went against expectations. Before Natalie could prepare the corresponding words, she found that her mother had already put away her luggage and returned to the living room on the first floor of her home, sitting opposite her...
