Chapter 401 Sam Secretly Stays in LA

Penelope tried to stay calm.

"Mom, I still want to go to the same school as Sam," Lucy said. "Whether it's in the county or LA."

Penelope patted her head. "Got it."

She'd thought about Sam's future too.

Sam was smart, with a high IQ and a talent for piano. But staying in the small county would limit his opportunities.

The county was too small and underdeveloped compared to LA.

Penelope planned to save enough money to move Sam to a bigger city for school when he got older.

For her kids' future, she'd go anywhere but LA, but fate had other plans and brought her back.

At the Walker house, Sam sat on the sofa, lost in thought.

"Sam, want some fresh cherries?" Ruby offered a plate of fruit. "You must be tired after playing all day."

He shook his head. "No, thanks."

"What's wrong?" Ruby asked, noticing his mood. "Missing your mom and Lucy?"

Sam shook his head again.

He was usually lively, but his quietness worried her.

Ruby was about to say more when Brandon came downstairs.

He noticed too. "Sam, why so down?"

"Uncle Brandon, can you get me a ticket for tomorrow morning?"

"Morning?" Brandon was surprised. "In a hurry to go back to the county?"

He had planned to take Sam to the mall, the beach, and then have Ruby take him back
