My Four Miraculous Treasures

Chapter 14

"Oh, I see. Since you're busy, I'll head off first," Willow said. She waved to Tyson, and crossed the road to wait for the bus.

She almost misunderstood the assistant's role, and was quite embarrassed.

Back home, Willow opened the door and was greeted by a heartwarming scene.

Seated on the sofa was a young woman. Her petite figure and round face were charming, and her large eyes had a lively sparkle. Her black hair was tied up in a ponytail, giving her a mischievous look. She was none other than Willow's close friend, Rachel Stone.

Four little bundles of joy gathered around Rachel, listening intently to her storytelling.

The little ones had bright, sparkling eyes, and were completely engrossed in her words. They hung on her every word as she recounted the tale of Little Rabbit and Big Grey Wolf.

"Little Rabbit thought it was really Mommy coming back, so he opened the door. Little did he know, the person outside took off his mask, revealing the fierce fangs of the Big Grey Wolf. And then... Whoosh! The wolf pounced towards Little Bunny!" Rachel's tone rose and fell, her narration vivid and engaging.

She even widened her mouth, mimicking the expression of the wolf about to devour the rabbit.

"Don't eat me, don't eat me!" Hailey, the closest of the bunch, immediately covered her head with her hands and buried her face, her voice soft and pleading.

Tristan commented coldly, "So childish. This is really boring. A big wolf doesn't make that kind of noise at all."

Julian's big eyes glistened with tears. He clenched his fists against his chest, looking delicate and vulnerable. He was pouting as he said, "Sniff! Little Bunny is so pitiful."

Lilith's innocent dark eyes had a cool glint. She waved a small pink fist and declared, "When the Big Grey Wolf comes, I'll scare it away!"

Hearing the innocent words of the four children, Rachel burst into laughter.

Willow walked into the room joyfully, and said, "Hey there. So you managed to find time to come today, Rachel."

Upon hearing her mother's voice, Hailey immediately looked up. Wide-eyed, she used both hands to cover her face, not daring to look. "The Big Grey Wolf disguised as Mommy is here! She can't see me... Can't see me..."
