A mother would do anything for her child. After Yvette made up her mind, she started her preparations. First, she contacted the kindergarten's director and said she wanted to invest in the kindergarten. Her idea was accepted immediately.Then, she planned on slowly taking over the group of mothers. At first, she didn't do anything at all. Instead, she just read up on what the mothers spoke about and learned about their needs.Time flew by when she was occupied. Soon, Noah rubbed his tired eyes and said, "Mom, it's time to eat.""Alright." She closed her laptop and headed downstairs.When they ate, Noah purposely made Yvette and Xavier sit together. "Mom, you can sit in front of me."Xavier was in front of him. She looked at Xavier and took a seat when he didn't say anything about it.Wendy had specifically prepared Xavier's food beforehand, and he finally didn't have to eat carrots anymore. However, he didn't have any appetite, so he just ate a little.Since they were sitting
Noah didn't want to sleep at all. "Mom, can you and Dad read us a bedtime story?""What would you like to hear? I'll read it to you in a while," Yvette asked gently. She was implying that she could read the story herself without Xavier.Xavier looked over with his attractive eyes and said, "I'll get someone to bring us a smart robot so that it can read you the stories instead."Noah was speechless as he thought how insensible Xavier was.Xavier was a man of his word. In just a short while, someone delivered a realistic smart robot to the manor. Not only could it tell the children stories, but it could help them with their homework and do simple chores as well.Noah wanted to assist Xavier further at first, but the robot was too interesting. So, the two boys hurriedly returned to their room and started having fun with it.Seeing how they were coaxed so quickly, Yvette suddenly had a realization. If Xavier had been willing to accept them in the past, they wouldn't have had to suffe
Yvette also saw Elena showing off her daughter on social media a lot. Other than the motivational quotes Elena shared online, Yvette could tell that the former didn't have a job or money. Instead, it seemed like she was suppressed by her mother-in-law at home most of the time.While scrolling through the feed, Yvette saw a notification from the parents' group chat. "Is everyone free on Sunday? Come have a gathering at my place!" It was Marlene.Usually, she would invite the parents to her house when she didn't need to go abroad. She was doing it because she was bored. But she also wanted to feed her ego.Marlene even tagged Yvette specifically in the invitation this time. Since she'd failed to humiliate Yvette that day, she'd make sure the latter was humiliated if she accepted the invitation.Elena was the first to respond to the message. "Alright, Ms. Larson. I'll be looking forward to it."It was already 12:00 am. Yvette was only up until now because she'd had to work on the l
At first, Yvette thought it would be hard to get the shares. However, she managed to purchase them that morning at triple the market price. Now, she was a bigger shareholder than Clifford with 54% of shares of Tirion kindergarten.After they were done with the procedures, Ronnie personally accompanied Yvette to the entrance. Then, Ray drove her to Lane Mansion.Clifford and Luke's family lived in the east side of the mansion. Meanwhile, Dominic's family lived in the west side.After Yvette arrived, she went to Marlene's house at the west side maid's help. It took her ten minutes to finally reach her destination in her car. She could see a pavilion from afar; the whole place looked luxurious.After Yvette got out of the car, she noticed there were snacks prepared in the garden. The other mothers were dressed exquisitely; they had clearly come in their best outfits.Even the simple-looking Elena was wearing extraordinary accessories on her neck and wrists. Unfortunately, the accesso
Elena's face became pale in an instant. She'd only spoken the truth. Malcolm might be better than most kids, but he couldn't compare to Zachary at all.However, she still didn't dare to offend Marlene. So, she explained with an awkward smile, "Oh, what are you saying, Ms. Larson? Every child in our class is the smartest!"When all the mothers there heard that, they felt better. After all, who would want someone else to say their children weren't good at all?Yvette understood what was going on as well. Elena didn't want to offend everyone, so she decided to be someone likable. Yvette figured the only thing people loved the most was money.As the gathering carried on, everyone talked about their husbands and children, offering glimpses into their lives. Yvette silently listened from the side and tried to remember all of them. However, it proved to be a difficult task. After all, not everyone was as unforgettable as Xavier.Elena approached her and said, "Relax, Ms. Snyder. It's nor
A short while later, Elena received a message. Marlene was asking to meet her. She apologetically said to Yvette, "Please excuse me. I'll be back in a bit."Compared to getting on Yvette's good side, she'd prefer not to offend Marlene. Yvette understood it as well and didn't make things hard for her. So, she sat in a corner by herself while Marlene and the rest of the mothers talked for a long while."Ms. Larson, I've heard that your husband is preparing to monopolize the market by spending hundreds of millions and conducting collective purchasing. Is that true?" asked one of the mothers.Marlene took a sip of coffee before correcting the mother, saying, "It's not just hundreds of millions. It's actually five billion dollars. Also, this is just the initial investment. Who knows how much more he'll need to invest in the future?"There was no way a person could monopolize a market with just hundreds of millions of dollars. Zayden had already spent five billion dollars, and it was onl
When Marlene had planned the gathering at her house, the last thing she'd expected was for Yvette to steal the spotlight again.So, she changed the topic and talked about the kindergarten's recent plan to change the system. At the mention of that, the mothers started talking to Marlene again and stopped caring about Yvette.Children nowadays would have the best things in life from the beginning. When Zachary had joined Tirion Kindergarten, which was an international kindergarten, he'd started learning two languages right away. He'd also learned a lot about mathematics and other subjects that he was interested in.In order to make sure their children received the best education, the mothers took turns to flatter Marlene.What surprised Yvette was how Marlene decided on the children's seats right away. There were 20 students in the class. Although there weren't a lot of them, the front seats were reserved for the children whose parents buttered up Marlene the most.Marlene even said
"This is what the kindergarten's board of directors has decided. They did this to ensure the students' safety and the kindergarten's cleanliness. So please bear with it for a while. Besides, you're not the only mother in the kindergarten. If you have a problem, you can bring it up with the kindergarten."Tirion Kindergarten was bigger than an elementary school or a high school. Most importantly, they were ranked one of the best educational institutions in Tirion. It hadn't been easy to get Taylor enrolled there, so there was no way Anne would want him to get kicked out just like that."It's alright. I can get Taylor to wake up earlier and walk to kindergarten himself."There was no way Anne could win in the argument when she had to take care of a one-year-old baby and a four-year-old. Yvette felt bad for her because she had to take care of two children herself as well. So, she knew how hard it was.When the gathering ended, the mothers tried hard to get a picture taken with Marle
