Sophia looked at âKyleâ and sighed, âDonât worry, grandma will talk to your dad and settle scores with him!â
âThanks grandma.â
Juan, who was impersonating Kyle, went to look for Sophia early in the morning to complain and seek justice for his mom.
He was satisfied after getting Sophiaâs promise that she would support his mom. Soon, it was time for him to go to school in Kyleâs place. The boy looked at Sophia miserably and said, âGrandma, itâs time for me to go to school, see you later.â
âIâll get the maids to send you there!â
Juan had wanted to reject the offer but agreed after remembering that he was going to Kyleâs school.
When they arrived at Grant Kindergarten, Juan got out of the car and texted Kyle immediately.
Kyle raised his hand immediately after reading the message. âTeacher, my tummy is aching. May I go to the toilet?â
âSure.â
The teachers knew that Kyle was from an influential family as the Head of Kindergarten and a few other teachers got fired because of him. As such, the current staff members of the school took note to pay special attention to Kyle.
However, as Evan had previously instructed the school not to give his son any privileged treatment and to treat him just like one of the other kids, they did not dare to show concern for Kyle too blatantly.
That being said, Kyle was still the heir of the Seet Group. As such, his teachers made sure that the boy was well taken care of in school.
A few minutes later, âKyleâ returned to the classroom.
The teacher approached him and asked with concern, âIs your stomach feeling better?â
Stomach?
Juan was stunned for a moment but quickly realized what was going on. He nodded vigorously and replied, âYes, Iâm fine now.â
âThatâs a relief then. If youâre not feeling well again, inform me immediately, okay?â
Juan was pleasantly surprised by the treatment Kyle was receiving and was truly happy for him.
After school, Juan took the initiative to mingle with the rest of the students, joking around and joining them for games.
Kyleâs such an introvert and had always kept to himself, why is he suddenly so active?
The teacher was secretly observing âKyleâ as she was worried about his stomachache. That was when she saw the strange scene and found it puzzling.
Because of that, she decided to pay even more attention to him.
Meanwhile, Sophia had just arrived at the office in a huff. Dressed in warm colors matched with a purple jacket and with her hair neatly tied up into a bun, the woman looked extremely smart, professional, and elegant.
The office employees took turns to greet Sophia as she walked past them.
As Sophia was in a rush, she merely waved at them as a form of acknowledgment. With a clear goal of settling scores with her son in mind, she headed straight towards the presidentâs office.
Slam!
The door to the presidentâs office was suddenly swung open. The moment Evan looked up, he saw his mother charging in with a murderous look on her face.
âMom, what brought you here?â
âWhat do you think?â
Evan cradled his forehead. For some unknown reason, images of Nicole feigning ignorance suddenly flashed in his mind. He seemed to have had an idea.
I should feign ignorance!
âAre you here for the board meeting?â
Sophia looked at her son in bewilderment. Thereâs still a long way to go until the next board meeting. Didnât we just have one a few days ago?
As Evan was someone who always had a good sense of time, it was hard for Sophia to believe that he had remembered the date of the board meeting wrongly.
Is heâ¦
Trying to feign ignorance?
Ha! Iâm ready to take you on, my dear son!
âThatâs right, Iâm here for the board meeting!â
Sophia plopped herself down on the sofa after saying that and fixed her gaze on Evan.
Evan, feeling uneasy being stared at, said, âLet me go and take a look to see if the directors have arrived.â
âSure, Iâll go with you,â Sophia stood up and walked towards her son.
Evan froze. He was finally resigned to the fact that there was no way he could escape.
âMom, please take a seat!â
âWhy? Are you not going anymore?â
âIâll get John to check.â
âWhy donât you get him to check on Tussaudâs situation at work instead?â
As expected, momâs here for Nicole. That woman must have b*tched about me behind my back!
She really is the ultimate queen of complaints!
Evanâs pupils constricted and his handsome face darkened. Simmering with anger, the man stopped avoiding his momâs questioning and replied, âShe has already resigned!â
âAnd whatâs her reason for doing that?â Sophia asked directly without beating about the bush.
âYou should be asking her instead!â Evan turned around and looked at his mom as he uttered each word firmly and clearly.
