“The new pretty girl is an autistic child. It looks like her autism is quite severe.”“It seems like this is the first time that our kindergarten has accepted such a severely autistic child. They should’ve sent her to a special needs school since she has this disorder. Why did they send her to our kindergarten?”“Autistic children also have the tendency to attack people. What if she suddenly feels overwhelmed and bullies other children?”The teachers in the office kept talking.Ava pushed open the door and walked inside. “Melody is indeed autistic, but I don’t think she has a tendency to attack anyone for the time being. Please don’t discuss a child behind her back.”“It’ll be late when you realize she has the tendency to attack people,” An old teacher said sincerely, “Since nothing has happened, quickly get an excuse to suspend her. It is very difficult to cure this kind of autistic patient. Sending her to our kindergarten is causing trouble for teachers like us.”Ava’s expressi
Alden calmly said, “Teachers who talk about students behind their backs are also not qualified to teach and educate students.”The old teacher became furious. This was the first time that someone dared teach her a lesson face to face, and that person was a four-year-old child!One of the teachers recognized Alden. “Ms. Fitz, he seems to be one of the transfer students in Ninth Class. He seems to be called… Alden Daugherty. Yes, it’s him!”Only then Ms. Fitz realized why this kid would suddenly rush into their office. It turned out that he heard what they said about the autistic child.“Melody is my sister. I won’t allow you to gossip about her.” Alden raised his chin, and his eyes were filled with bone-chilling coldness. “If I hear this once again, I’ll go to the Ministry of Education.”The adults were so frightened by his gaze that they took a step back.When Ms. Fitz realized that she was frightened by a four-year-old kid, she became angrier. “You’re so small, yet you came to c
Alden relaxingly went back to the Ninth Class.Ava sighed in relief. “I was about to go and look for you. Where did you go?”“I went to the restroom.”Alden walked into the classroom and sat beside Melody.Ava stared at him, and she felt that this boy had a very strong demeanor. Sometimes, she dared not even look at his eyes.But Alden was polite and obedient. When he spoke, his voice was soft and nice. This seemed like the imposing manner she saw was in her imagination.During the break, Ava was summoned by Ms. Fitz.About six teachers surrounded her and ordered her in a low voice.“Alden’s sister is autistic, but our school has experience in this. If you don’t understand anything, just come and ask me.”“Melody is very pretty. Such a beautiful kid is considered the pride of our school. You have to take good care of her and must not let her quit school.”“Miss Jones, if you’re not that patient, you can transfer Melody to our class.”“...” The corner of Ava’s lips twitched
She got a new phone number after she came back, so not many people knew it. She thought it was an advertisement, so she immediately hung up.But the number called back again.She wiped her hands and picked up the call.“Adina, is that you?”As soon as Adina heard the man’s cold voice on the phone, her expression became cold.It was actually her father, Aaron.She had been back for a few days, but her father only called her after so many days.He used to be a good father who used to pamper her since she was small.Adina scoffed and said, “Mr. Daugherty, how have you been?”Aaron choked. He took a deep breath before he said, “Adina, I know you’re blaming me. But if you look at it from my perspective, you will understand why I would do that. You set fire to the Daugherty family and left at that time, and you declared war on the Daugherty family when you came back now. Can I not get angry?”“So, Mr. Daugherty, to you, your daughter is not as important as the company,” Adina said
Adina held the phone, sighing inwardly.Whatever reason it was, she should visit her grandmother. She had been missing for four years, so she owed her an explanation.But she did not know whether her grandmother would still protect her like she did in the past… “Mommy, the food in the pan is going to get mushy.”Alden frowned and reminded Adina.Adina quickly put down her phone and started to cook attentively.Half an hour later, three main courses and one bowl of soup were prepared.After Melody smelled the aroma, she walked over and sat at the dining table without anyone calling her. She looked like she was ready to be fed.Alden smiled. “Mommy, look at Mel. She is so cute.”Adina poured a bowl of soup for the girl before she grinned and said, “Mel, eat while it’s still warm. You can be a pretty girl only if you eat more.”Melody lowered her head, looked down at her bowl, and started eating her food with big bites.All the food on the table was finished very quickly after
“Yes, Sir.”Mr. Brown immediately answered.Master usually looked cold and indifferent, but he knew that no one loved the young masters more than him.People said a father’s love was as sturdy as mountains.Mr. Brown wanted to say that a father’s love was as deep as the ocean.It was as deep as the ocean, and it could also put up with anything like the sea.On the second floor, Harold sat on the balcony, and his eyes were filled with tears.He was starving, so he secretly took out a biscuit from his bag and took a few bites.But he accidentally choked on it, and his tears rolled down soundlessly.“I hate Dad the most…” Harold cried while he yelled.Dad was horrible! He was always so strict with him. He did not even allow him to leave the house, and he made him stay at home to learn those boring things… He wanted to sneak out. He wanted to see Auntie Adina. He wanted to touch Melody’s face… The more he thought about it, the sadder he felt.Suddenly, his phone rang.He
Harold quickly grew furious.“George, I am pouring out my secrets to you, and you’re pouring cold water over my head. I don’t want to talk to you anymore. Hmph!”He angrily hung up, and he was so angry that he could not continue eating the biscuits.George, who was abroad, coldly turned around and looked at his assistant. “I need to go back to Sea City tomorrow. Book the flight ticket for me.”“Young Master George, you need to inspect the branch company tomorrow, and you have to attend the overseas general meeting on the day after tomorrow. Mr. Winters arranged all this.”“Book the flight ticket three days later.”George’s expression was dark as he said.That woman, Adina, was so aggressive that even his mother’s family was unable to escape her wiles. He had to go back.Besides, Adina had approached Harold with motives of her own, so he had to go back and keep an eye on him. Otherwise, Harold, the silly boy would fall into the trap.…… Old Mrs. Daugherty’s birthday celebrati
Since Ruby still wanted to play up the illusion of mother-daughter harmony, she was willing to cooperate.She was hugged by Ruby for a while before she pushed her away. She said with grief, “Mom, I also miss you very much. When I wandered outside and was homeless for the past four years, what I missed the most is your love and protection for me. Now I’m back. Will you still love and pamper me like in the past?”Pride could be seen in Ruby’s eyes.Adina the brat was indeed the same as four years ago. As long as she pretended to show some concern, this brat would jump into the trap she set up.Did this stupid brat still want to take revenge on the Daugherty family?Ha! No way!Ruby’s smile only widened. She held Adina’s hand and affectionately said, “Of course. I always love you like my own daughter. No matter what mistakes you make, I’ll still love and pamper you.”As she spoke, she held Adina’s hand and walked into the house.A few people were already sitting at the round dinin
