"That is quite right. You have my gratitude, Ms Larson, as a fellow educator whose concerns lie deeply with the future of our society. Please do not take my previous statement as criticism towards the school; I merely expressed my opinion on those who clearly don't understand the importance of childhood."
Smiling, she fortunately didn't seem to take any offence to my statement.
I only said such a thing in the first place because I believe it befits the disposition of the individual known as Leander Herington, a powerful and distant, yet noble and benevolent man of the modern social aristocracy, but it seems to have resonated personally with her as well.
Seeing as how Stella Larson didn't seem to particularly disagree with my words, however, I am beginning to see what kind of person this woman is.
"I apologise for my ignorance, Mr Leander, but I wasn't aware you performed as an educator as well?"
