Chapter 318

Tiana didn't verbalize these thoughts; instead, she just implored, "Just be careful on your way, okay? And about last night at the party, I'm sorry I couldn't protect you." "What are you talking about? It was me who slowed you down. You were trying to help revive my family's fortune, and I got taken down by Endora..."

"I won't let it happen again. I've realized, what's reputation worth, anyway? I need to learn to be as resilient as you. Anyone who's ever bullied me..." "I'll help you get back at them!" Whitney declared with conviction.

Tiana was moved and hugged her tightly.

"Whitney, you made my mommy cry!" Cherry wobbled over.

"Sweetie, it's not like that. They're just having a heart-to-heart," Sammy explained.

Whitney paused for a moment, feeling as if her warm-hearted son had returned. Just yesterday, 'Sammy' was giving Cherry the cold shoulder.

Only Cherry knew what was really going on as she winked at her brother.

They said their goodbyes at the door.

Held by the nanny, Tiana went outside to hail a cab.

At ten in the morning, the streets were congested, and the driver couldn't get through. Tiana had to walk a bit to meet him.

"Mummy..." Cherry felt uneasy outside.

She wriggled out of the nanny's arms and chased after her mother...

But with her short legs and wobbly steps, she soon lost sight of Tiana. When Cherry realized what had happened, she found herself standing alone at the curb, surrounded by traffic.

"Waaa, Mummy, where are you?" The young girl stood bewildered, on the verge of darting around in panic.

Suddenly, a Hummer approached, and Cherry's mouth formed an 'O' as she screamed, "Ah, Mummy, save me!"

"Parker?" a voice came from the car.

"Damn, hit a kid," Parker muttered, catching a glimpse of a pink corner of clothing and the puffy face of a little girl on the ground.

In that moment, his heart inexplicably skipped a beat. His long legs kicked the car door open, and he rushed out.
