Upon receiving Maisie’s call, Daniel rushed to the international kindergarten.

However, doubts filled his mind on the way. Persephone’s primary guardians were Zuko and Lina. Even if they were busy with work and couldn’t be reached, there were still her grandparents. Thus, there was no reason for him, her granduncle, to be called.

Despite these thoughts, he arrived in no time. Maybe it was because he had grown quite attached to Persephone, treating her as if she were his own child after spending all this time with her.

At the kindergarten’s infirmary.

He found Persephone lying on the bed. “Sephy, you…”

She looked at him, blinking her big eyes twice.

Daniel frowned, noticing her rosy cheeks and calm demeanor. There was no sign of discomfort.

“Where does it hurt?” Daniel walked over and held her small hand.

Seizing the opportunity, Persephone secretly pinched him and put on a weak face. “Granduncle… My tummy hurts.”

“Oh…” Daniel understood what was happening. While he pondered how to get her to admit the truth, Maisie entered.

“Mr. Quimby, you’re here!” Maisie held a few test reports and a box of pills. “Sephy was checked just now, and no issue was found. To be safe, the infirmary prescribed her some medicine. It’s best to take her to a hospital for a detailed checkup after taking her home.”
