Chapter 141 Take Me Away
Caroline felt relieved with Kenny around–she could worry less.
With two hours remaining, she immediately went online to search for a clothing factory up for
sale.
She found three factories and made appointments with their owners before heading to the kindergarten to pick up her children.
Fifteen minutes later, she parked her car at the kindergarten entrance.
She arrived early, with ten minutes still left before the class ended.
As she stepped out of the car, she spotted Daniella hurrying to the door.
Shortly after, Alice came out, holding Axel’s hand.
Daniella tried to grab Axel’s hand, but he evaded her, refusing to comply.
“Axel, your dad is busy, so he asked me to come to pick you up. Can you be nice?” Daniella asked
patiently.
“No,” Axel firmly held onto Alice’s hand, unwilling to let go.
Alice found herself in a dilemma and squatted down, coaxing Axel. “Axel, your mom is here to pick you up. Can you go home with her, okay?”
Axel pursed his lips and simply replied, “No.”
Daniella felt embarrassed. “Axel, please don’t embarrass me in front of so many parents.”
Axel took two steps back, keeping his head down.
Daniella impatiently tried to grab him.
Fear washed over Axel’s face, causing him to grow pale.
In an attempt to break free, he accidentally stepped on Daniella’s foot. She released him due to the
pain, and he ran toward Caroline, who was wearing shades.
Caroline was stunned to see Axel running towards her. ‘Why is he running toward me?‘
Soon, Axel was before Caroline. His eyes were red as he pleaded, “Please take me with you.”
When Caroline saw Axel’s terrified face, she recalled what her children had told her.
Daniella abused her son.
Caroline’s heart inevitably softened before she carried Axel.
Daniella rushed over to Caroline and sternly shouted, “Give me my child!”
Caroline pursed her lips and taunted, “Ask your child if he wants to go with you.”
Daniella’s face contorted, and she retorted, “Who are you? It’s none of your business!”
“I am-” Caroline began to explain but was interrupted by Axel.
“She’s Daddy’s friend!” Axel hurriedly explained. “Daddy told me this morning that she’s going to
pick me up.”
Axel’s flushed face showed how fast he spoke.
Daniella glared at Caroline, paying no attention to Axel’s words.
“I’ll say it again. Give me my child!” Daniella demanded.
“I won’t give him to someone who abuses him,” Caroline replied firmly.
The surrounding parents overheard their exchange, leading to discussions among them.
“She abuses the child?”
“No wonder the child doesn’t want to go with her earlier.”
“Is she the boy’s mother? I think she’s a stepmother.”
“It’s better if the child goes with his father’s friend. Maybe he’ll get beaten up if he goes back with
his mother!”
“Yes! Children’s reactions don’t lie.” Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
Daniella’s face turned livid as she glared at Caroline. “Don’t let me find out who you are! If I do,
you’ll suffer!”
With that, she quickly ran away, unable to handle the criticism.
Caroline looked at Axel, who had buried his head in her arms. Her heart softened, “Your mom is
gone.
“No” Axel muttered. “She’s not my mother.”
