When the car finally stopped, Dolores could clearly see who the black figure was.
That person threw himself on the hood of the car, crying and shrieking.
Dolores felt a little bewildered.
âGet out of the car!â the woman was pointing at Dolores, her expression was terrifying, as if she was a hungry beast.
Dolores looked at the womanâs face, her brain churning furiously. She quickly recognized this woman, wasnât this the woman who was so bossy in the kindergarten the other day?
Why was she here blocking her way?
Quickly, Dolores realized what was going on. She pulled out her phone and looked at the latest news. The news was splashed all over the place. Because Samuel uploaded that video to the Internet, the vice-mayor of B-town was under investigation, and with this investigation, things were not going wellâ¦.
It quickly scrolled through the news. Corruption, affairs⦠there were several mentions of illegal acts.
Bamâ¦!
âQuick, open the door, bitch.â Not knowing since when, the woman had approached her window, and was banging on her glass, as if she wanted to break the glass and get to Dolores.
Dolores calmed down. Facing this demented woman, she calmly went to the call page of her phone, and pressed 110â¦.
Seeing Doloresâ phone screen, the woman spat viciously, âI wonât let you get away!â. As she finished her words, the woman ran off.
Dolores quickly ended the call, and hurriedly started the engine to leave.
When she arrived home, Victoria was in the living room teaching Simona to write. The little girl was very talented. She had never been to kindergarten, but even the first time she wrote, she wrote very neatly. She was also a very fast learner.
Victoria was very excited. Once Dolores entered the house, she motioned to her, âCome quickly.â
Dolores put down the car keys and walked over.
âLook at the words your daughter is writing.â said Victoria.
Victoria bent down, and saw that in the exercise book, there were five words, âMetal, Wood, Water, Fire, Earthâ. They were written very perfectly. The girl raised her head and looked at Dolores, her eyes shining, waiting for Dolores to praise herself.
Dolores rubbed her hair and kissed her forehead, âMy daughter is the best, she is the smartest.â
With Doloresâs praise, Simona began to write even more excitedly.
Dolores tugged on Victoriaâs shirt, and said softly, âMom, can you come in here with me for a while?â
Victoria nodded her head, and said softly to her granddaughter, âIf you write well, Iâll bring you some fruit juice.â
The little girl wrote earnestly, without raising her head, replied, âOkay.â Victoria followed Dolores into the house.
She closed the bedroom door and Dolores got straight to the point: âThese days, when you go out, bring more people with you.â
If that woman showed up today, she would probably show up again tomorrow. If she couldnât see Dolores, perhaps she would direct her anger at the children.
They had better take more precautions.
Otherwise, she didnât feel at ease.
Victoria knew nothing about this matter and asked, âHas something happened, is it very serious?â.
Dolores paused for a second before saying, âHavenât you seen the news recently?â.
Victoria shook her head. Since the two children had started living here, all her efforts had been focused on the children. When the children went to kindergarten, she was at home experimenting with new foods. When they came back, she would prepare the new dishes for them.
On weekends she had to take them to the zoo and the aquarium amusement park. Her time was jam-packed with activities, she had no time to watch the news.
When Dolores said this, she only realized that this issue was most likely due to that particular news item. She turned on her phone to check the latest news items. Quickly, she saw the news item about the vice-mayor.
Victoria raised her headâ¦
Dolores nodded, âThe vice-mayorâs video was uploaded by Samuel.â Victoriaâs eyes widened, âIt was the last timeâ¦â
Last time, when the kindergarten had called to see the parents, she had known that the children had gotten into a fight with someone at school.
But she didnât know the details of it.
Dolores explained to her, âThe girl who argued with Simona the last time, could be the illegitimate daughter of the vice-mayorâ¦â
Victoria quickly understood the essence of the matter. If the girl was the vice-mayorâs illegitimate daughter, then wouldnât the girlâs mother be a mistress?
Because of the video Samuel had uploaded, the vice-mayor was under investigation. Now, the vice-mayor had been exposed for his various illegal acts, And that woman was angry?
âDonât worry.â Now that Victoria knew what was going on, she would take the necessary precautions.
Dolores nodded, âIf itâs too much trouble, maybe we wonât send them to kindergarten these days.
When this matter is settled, all of them have been incarcerated, and the matter is done and dusted, then they will just send them back to kindergarten. Otherwise, she would be worried when the two children were in kindergarten.
Victoria agreed, âI might as well teach them at home.â Speaking of this, Victoria thought of Samuel, âSamuel had long wanted not to go to kindergarten. He is a child himself, but he thinks the other children are too childish. But donât worry, it wonât be long before they go to elementary school.â
Dolores knew Samuel was mature.
Speaking of Samuel, Victoria said, âGo take a look at him, heâs been in his room for a few days since he came home.â
Dolores nodded and opened the door to leave.
Outside Samuelâs room, she knocked on the door.
There was no sound inside. She turned the doorknob and the door was not locked. When he pushed the door slightly, it opened. He pushed the door open and a dim yellow light came on the bedside table. Samuel was lying on his bed, staring intently at something, not realizing that someone had knocked on his door.
Dolores approached with soft steps.
On her tablet were numbers and data.
Dolores could not understand what they were.
She lightly called out to her son, âSamuel.â
Only then did Samuel realize that someone was in his room. He turned his head to look at Dolores and called, âMom.â
Dolores laughed, âWhat is Samuel doing so serious that he didnât even listen when I came in?â
Samuel smiled brightly, âMy AC teacher sent me a number question to solve. I find it very interesting.â
He pointed excitedly to show Dolores, âLook Mom, whatâs the sequence of these numbers?â
Dolores felt no connection to these numbers. She shook her head, she couldnât understand them.
âLook.â Samuel pointed to a slanted line, âAll these numbers are even numbers, and the straight line are odd numbers. They all have a pattern, if we find the pattern to it, it would be easy for us to figure out the answer.â
When he talked about the things he liked, Samuelâs face was always glowing.
Dolores stood by his bedside, and hugged Samuel in her arms, âDonât you want to go to kindergarten?â
Samuel nodded his head sincerely, âThey are too childish, the teacher treats me like a baby.â
Dolores kissed his cheek, and hugged her son tightly, âSo where do you want to go to study?â
Samuel looked down, his long eyelashes flickering. He said softly, âI want to go to AC.â
It wasnât that Dolores didnât want her son to go there. But he was still young, and he was only at AC part-time.
âSamuel, youâre very talented. But youâre still young. If you donât follow the path you should take, you might regret it next time. There are joys you can find at every stage of your life. If you didnât experience them before, you wonât be able to find joy at that stage of your life. Then that stage would only be blank for you, and it would not be full of anything. If you want to go, I will definitely support you. If your results are good, regardless of elementary or high school, you can definitely skip a grade. Once you have stayed a few years in elementary and high school, and you have passed the program, you will then be a little bit older. Then, you can go to AC for full-time study â wouldnât that be better?â
Samuel thought carefully, this seemed like a good idea.
âMom, Iâll listen to you.â Samuel threw himself into her arms, âMommy.â
âYes?â
Dolores lowered her head to look at her son.
Samuel smiled brightly, âYou know, my teacher is here in B-town.â
Doloresâ expression froze. She was a little surprised, âWhat teacher in AC?â
Samuel nodded, âHe has another identity.â
