She had gone to the university that day, so she wasn't free to pick up Pete from kindergarten.

It was Melissa who picked him up.

Melissa entered the room nervously.

After glancing outside the room, she came up to Nora, neatened her dress, and sat down gracefully in front of her.

Then, she said unhurriedly, "I have something to talk to you about, Nora."

"...What is it?"

Melissa frowned and asked, "Do you find Cherry's behavior a little strange lately?"

Nora: “???"

Melissa sighed and said, "Cherry used to be very lively and a sweet talker.She played with me all day and also loved eating.Lately, though, she's become a lot quieter.When I picked her up from school and asked her what she wanted to do just now, she actually said that she wants to do gardening and play chess with Great-Grandma.The two of them have been in the garden for an hour and a half!"

Nora ”..."

Melissa said sincerely and earnestly, "I know you're a good girl and that you treat your child very well, Nora, but you have to spend more time with your child when you have the time.Otherwise, she'll easily develop psychological issues."

Nora's lip corners spasmed a little at the kind reminder from her aunt, and she replied...“Okay"

Melissa breathed a sigh of relief.

She stood up and got ready to leave.

When she was about to step out, Nora suddenly asked, "By the way, is everything fine with Logan ? The boy’s words just now had made her a little suspicious. Had he encountered some kind of difficulty?” Melissa sighed when she heard her question.

"That boy doesn't tell me anything.I don't know what he's doing outside at all, sigh.But even though he seems a little stubborn and belligerent, he's actually a very kind boy.”

"Never mind.Let's just leave him be.’ Melissa waved and went downstairs.

Beep, beep.

Nora's cell phone beeped twice.

When she picked it up, she saw a text message from Cherry: ‘‘Mommy, Princess Lucy sent me a picture of her new car.Isn't this pink Ferrari adorable?!"
