Chapter 147

Chapter 147

58

In just one morning, the children who had been avoiding Yvonne earlier somehow ended up crowding around her, listening intently as she chatted with Rachel.

Even the teacher was stunned by the sight, but soon, a warm sense of relief followed.

Some children are just special. Put them in a big group, and they can effortlessly attract the attention of their peers.

Rachel treated Yvonne very well, taking her along wherever she went, even during their outdoor explorations.

For Yvonne, apart from a rough start in the morning, everything else on her first day of school had been nothing but fun.

When she was home, she bounced happily toward the living room.

Just as she got close, she froze for a second upon hearing a familiar voice inside.

Her steps slowed as she crept to the doorway. After confirming that it was her grandfather speaking, she dashed inside.

The girl broke free from Ian’s hand and shot toward Richard while saying happily, “Grandpa!”

Richard, who had been chatting with Tinley, turned his head and saw his precious granddaughter running toward him.

His sharp eyes softened with a loving smile as he opened his arms, waiting for Yvonne to jump in.

But instead of diving into his embrace, the little girl stopped by his leg, puffed out her cheeks, and dragged out her words in a soft, pouty voice that made her sound more like she was whining than scolding. “Grandpa, you lied!”

Richard chuckled, rubbing her head with a smile. “Oh? What did Grandpa lie about?”

He had tricked her so many times that he wasn’t sure which one she had caught.

Yvonne pulled off her schoolbag and took out her cup, which had been clean and shiny in the morning but now had a sticker on it.

Pointing at the sticker, she fixed her big, clear eyes on her grandpa and asked in a serious but childish tone, “Grandpa, what is this?”

When Richard saw the animal on the sticker, his brow twitched slightly, but he kept a straight face, saying, “It’s a kitten.”

As soon as he spoke, Yvonne stuffed her cup back into her schoolbag and grabbed his fingers, saying angrily. “This is obviously a baby tiger!”
