The President’s Five Children

Hardly had Eric finished his words than a figure rushed up to him.

“What’s going on? Did something happen to Joanna?” Bonnie asked anxiously.

Dumbfounded, Eric thought to himself. Why was Annie so anxious? People would think she was little lady Joanna’s mother!

“Tell me! What’s wrong with Joanna? Why did her teacher ask her parents to go to the kindergarten?” Her eyes red, Bonnie grabbed Eric’s collar, her knuckles whitening.

“The teacher said little lady Joanna was trying to scramble over the wall and fell…”

Before Eric could finish his sentence, Bonnie rushed out of the office and disappeared from sight.

Eric was puzzled. What was wrong with her?

He blinked his eyes in confusion and turned to Sebastian. “Mr. Grant, so…”

“To the kindergarten.” Sebastian nodded and went outside.

Meanwhile, Eric went to the parking lot and drove Sebastian to the kindergarten.

Just as they steered onto the road, the two men saw the familiar figure on the sidewalk.

It was Bonnie.

She held out her hand to stop a taxi as she ran along the street. However, it was lunch break at this moment, and there were few taxis on the road. The cars sped past her, and she was almost pulled under them.

Sebastian’s heart began to race. What was wrong with that woman? Didn’t she know it was dangerous to do so?

When Eric passed by Bonnie, he slowed down out of politeness and asked her where she was going, so that he could arrange a car for her.

However, the moment Bonnie saw a car slowing down by her, she opened the door and got in immediately, pleading anxiously, “Please, I need to go to Saintiny Noble Kindergarten. I will pay you. Please!”

Eric was surprised to hear that. It turned out Annie was also going to Saintiny Noble Kindergarten! Was she going to check on little lady Joanna?

Eric, nevertheless, said nothing and looked at Sebastian in the rear view mirror, waiting for him to give an order.

At this moment, Bonnie also realized that the one beside her was Sebastian. She shrieked in fright and drew back against the car door, her eyes popping, her delicate face pale.

Sebastian was lost for words. So this woman wasn’t afraid of being pulled under the car a while ago, but was scared of him now?Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.

Was he so terrifying?

“Get out of the car,” Sebastian growled.

However, Bonnie wouldn’t. She managed to suppress her fear and reached out to grab Sebastian’s arm. “Mr. Grant, you’re also going to the kindergarten, right? Please take me with you. I adore Joanna, and I’m worried about her. May I go with you?”

Bonnie did so out of expediency. After all, Saintiny Noble Kindergarten had strict rules, and one couldn’t get in without a pass. Therefore, she had to go with Sebastian, or she wouldn’t be able to see Joanna.

Sebastian dropped his eyes with a faint smile, looking at Bonnie before him. Suddenly, he found the woman was actually crying. Tears streaked her face, and she looked genuinely distressed. His heart missed a beat as he saw that, and he should have a sudden urge to take her in his arms.

Shit!

A fretful look flashing across his eyes, Sebastian told Eric, “Let’s go!”

So he agreed to take Bonnie with them.

Eric smashed the gas pedal and dashed to Saintiny Noble Kindergarten.
