Chapter 24
“Mom, Lundy lives well at home. I can take good care of him.”
“You know why I took Lundy away. Besides, your father and I miss Lundy too. Why don’t you ask him to stay with us for two days?”
My father said in a low voice, “I heard that Lundy just got sick. You have been very busy these days. Let us take care of him first.”
Hearing my father’s words, I couldn’t help but feel a little headache.
Of course I knew my mother’s intention. She didn’t want Lundy to get in touch with Aimee.
But I can’t refute my father’s words.
When I was silent, my mother stood up and left with Lundy in her arms.
Aimee’s POV
After sending the two kids to the kindergarten in the morning, I went to work in a hurry.
After work, i came to pick up the two kids on time.
When I arrived at the kindergarten, there were only the two of them at the gate, and the teacher was taking care of them.
“Sorry, I’m late again.” I’m sorry,. I want to take the two kids here.
But the teacher protected the two kids and said to me with a little embarrassment, “I’ll take care of them for you for a while. The principal has something to talk to you and is waiting for you in the office.”
Hearing this, I was a little confused, but I still turned around and went upstairs, knocking on the door of the principal Egan’s office
For some reason, the principal looked a little strange.
“Miss Joyce said you wanted to talk to me. What’s up?” I asked in confusion.
With a formulaic smile on her face, the principal said slowly, “here is the thing. I’ve observed for two days and found that your two children are not suitable for our kindergarten. Do you think about changing their environment?”Property © NôvelDrama.Org.
The implication was that he was going to fire Aviva and Cyrus!
I frowned, but my attitude was still polite. “Did they do something wrong in the kindergarten? If so, I will teach them well when I go back. Don’t worry, they will…”
Before I could finish my promise, I was interrupted. “The two children did a good job, but I still don’t want them to stay in our kindergarten. I will return all the previous fees.”
“It’s not about money. Since my two children performed well, why did you fire them? You have to give me a reason, or I can’t explain it to them.”
The principal frowned, “there is no reason.”
I tried my best to suppress my anger and keep calm. I tried to communicate with the principal, “I chose to give the child to you because I trusted you. But your current behavior disappointed me. You fired a student for no reason. I can report it.”
“Then you can report. I won’t change my mind!”
I looked him up and down for a moment, and his attitude also became cold. “This matter is spread out, and the kindergarten will be punished temporarily. The other children’s parents will know that you fired two children for no reason. Will they doubt you and let the children transfer to another school? At that time, I’m afraid that the kindergarten will not be able to run.”
Hearing this, the principal was a little flustered. he looked into my eyes helplessly and said, “Miss Miller, it’s not difficult for you to find another kindergarten for your two children. Why are you making things difficult for me here?”
A touch of suspicion crossed my mind.
From Egan’s point of view, this matter must have been instigated by someone, and that person must have a high status.
Thinking of this, I softened my tone. “Okay, I won’t make things difficult for you, but you have to tell me, who let you do this?”
The principal was silent.
“Is it the Carter Group?” I can only think of this possibility.
The principal hesitated for a while and nodded.
When I saw him nod, my face turned pale.
‘Penn, what does he mean!
When I came out of the principal’s office, I picked up the child from the teacher.
“Mommy has something else to do later. Can you go to play with me?” On the way back, I suppressed my anger and asked the two kids with a smile as if nothing had happened.
The two kids nodded.
I handed them over to Daphne and got back to the Carter. With a long face, I drove to the car’s mansion.
“Madam…” Cheryl opened the door for her.
I simply nodded to her and looked at the living room. “Is Penn there? I have something to talk to him.”
Hearing this, Cheryl nodded at once. “I’ll go upstairs and call him.”
Soon, the two of them came down one after the other, and Lundy followed them cheerfully.
When I saw Lundy, my heart softened for a moment. I touched his head and said, “I have something to tell your father. Can you play for a while?”
Lundy nodded obediently and sat down on the carpet beside the sofa with the plane model in his arms.
Penn frowned and asked, “what’s the matter?”
When I heard his voice, my anger that had been suppressed for a long time burst out. “Penn, if you have any problem with me, you can target me. Why did you target Aviva and Cyrus? What did they do wrong? They have always been respectful to you and to your son. Even for the sake of Lundy, you have no reason to bully the two children, right?”
Hearing this, Penn frowned more tightly. “Make it clear?”
Seeing the confusion on his face, I pursed my lips sarcastically. “Don’t you know? Except you, who else has the right to ask the kindergarten to fire them? You have done it. Why are you still pretending to be innocent?”
Hearing this, Penn was stunned. “I did, but I have already…”
When he admitted it, I was even angrier. “Penn, don’t you think you’ve gone too far? No matter what happened before, it’s between the two of us. Come at me. I promise I won’t say anything. The child is innocent and they know nothing. Why did you do that?”
After saying that, I pinched the palm of my hand hard, trying to make myself sound calm. “Yes, it was me who was shameless to do that to you. You can take revenge on me in any way you want, but could you please let go of my two children?”
Penn’s POV
Seeing Aimee’s red eyes, my heart ached.
