They would have to pass by the bridge before they arrived at James’ house. Therefore, Melinda caught the eyes of Mervin in the passenger seat from a distance.
She was surrounded by a group of children. She was wearing a beige dress under her pink apron.
Her headband set off her delicate face. As the wind brushed past her, her black hair swayed against her
face.
She was standing in front of the blackbeard on the hut’s wall as she taught the children to draw.
“Stop here.” Mervin gently spoke up. He was surprised by the sight of her. It’s really her.
His companion drove the car down the road while turning to him. “But we haven’t arrived.”
“I told you to stop the car!”
The car screeched to a stop. His companion, Altair, shot him a confused look before looking in Melinda’s direction. “Who is that? Do you know her? She’s beautiful.”
Mervin opened the door and jumped out of the car without answering the questions. Slamming the door closed, he fixed his eyes on Melinda.
She emanated a mother-like gentleness and her smile was contagious. He felt a burden being lifted off his shoulders just by watching her.
The sight of her put his mind at peace.
Meanwhile, Melinda wasn’t aware of his gaze. She was teaching the children to sketch with patience. All she saw was the group of kids before her.
The children obediently sat on the stools, each of them with an easel in front of them. They listened to Melinda explain the key to drawing a lotus with full attention. The kids picked up their paintbrushes and” began to draw as she explained.novelxo.com fast update
Around five minutes of briefing later, all the children eventually started their artwork.
Melinda casually raised her head and found an unfamiliar car parked nearby. A familiar man was standing
next to the car.
He locked eyes with her. She froze to the spot, thinking that it was her hallucination.
Mervin’s smile stretched wider across his face. He uncrossed his arms and walked toward her.
“Miss Paisley, your class seems fun.” He stopped beside her and cut to the chase. “Do you mind if I sit in?”
Surprised by his eagerness, she nodded with a smile. “Of course not!”
Sunshine filtered through the leaves. For a moment, her bright smile dazzled him.
It was as if time had stopped. Only the leaves of the locust tree rustled in the wind.
Meanwhile, at Brainly Kindergarten in the city.
The kindergarten would usually hold outdoor activities when the weather was nice so that the children.

had the chance to enjoy nature’s beauty.
Samuel wasn’t interested in outdoor activities, which he found childish. Sitting on the bench next to the slides, he focused on his tablet. Nobody had any idea what he was doing with it.
To the other children, Samuel was a freak who didn’t do well with group interactions.
Since he brought his tablet around with him the whole time, everyone thought he was addicted to video
games.
“The teacher is giving away cakes!”
One of the kids shouted to grab his companion’s attention. At that, the children dispersed and rushed to the table nearby to grab a piece of cake for themselves.
Samuel was a fan of cake too. Therefore, he only cast one look at them before setting his tablet aside and rising to his feet. He joined the other children to take the cake.
Three seconds later, a child who slipped out of the slide noticed the tablet Samuel left.
He approached it in curiosity and took it with him. As he left, he tapped on the tablet even though he didn’t know what he was doing,
At the same time, the programmer of the R-Alan Group. Kai Herman, happened to be near the kindergarten. His phone buzzed in a special tone, so he took it out to check on it. He stopped in his tracks as he stared at the screen with widened eyes.
The signal is strong! It’s coming out of the kindergarten.
Turning his head in the direction of the kindergarten, he thought it over for a few seconds.
Meanwhile, Stanley was at a nearby clubhouse. He had met up with the president of Annexia and both parties struck a deal. Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.
Max was standing next to him. “Are we heading back now, Mr. Fox?”
“Go get some snacks and fruits from the shops. I’m visiting the kids in the kindergarten.” Stanley’s expression softened at the thought. His happiness was no different from showing off in Max’s eyes.
“All right. I’ll go.”
“There’s no need.” Stanley then stated, “I’ll pick them up myself.”
“I’m coming with you.”
The pair walked toward the fruit mart in the area.
Meanwhile, R-Alan Group’s staff, Kai, managed to sneak into the kindergarten and was quickly approaching the location shown on his phone.
After the child stole the tablet, he immediately walked toward a quiet corner.
Kai tracked the child down at the secluded corner. He strode over to the child and covered his mouth with a hand and dragged him away without alerting anyone.
Samuel walked back to the spot next to the slide as he ate the cake. “The cake tastes nice.”
