Chapter 202 Is Howard making His Move On Jasmine?

Casey's cries reverberated thunderously, their echo possibly reaching miles around.

Erin, who had been scouring the vicinity, abruptly halted in her tracks, recognizing the distinct sound.

"There!" she exclaimed, her voice cutting through the air.

Approaching the warehouse door with a grim expression, Erin peeked inside and called out, "Justin?"

"Sis!" Justin beamed joyously at Erin. "Don't worry, Casey and I are here. It seems like school's over, and the caretaker accidentally locked the door."

Justin generously excused the warehouse caretaker, assuming the oversight was unintentional.

"That caretaker had locked up as per his schedule, maybe unaware that the teachers had allowed kids to search for things inside," he explained.

"Move aside," Erin instructed Justin, urging him to step away.

She couldn't wait for the principal to send someone with keys.

With a forceful kick, Erin shattered the door open and scooped Justin into her arms. "Were you scared?"

Justin shook his head and pointed at Casey, who sobbed uncontrollably. "He's scared."

Despite Casey's tear-streaked and snotty appearance, Erin gathered him into her arms too; after all, children needed comfort.

"The teacher told us to get our homemade flower baskets from the Warehouse and give them to mommy and daddy after school; they'd be happy," Casey wept.

He had hoped to earn more love from his parents, especially since his mom had promised to pick him up that day.

The little flower basket was something Justin had helped Casey make for his mom. However, the teacher had confiscated it during a break.

Justin and Casey had inquired about the flower baskets, and the teacher directed them to search for it in the Warehouse themselves.

Erin squinted, turning to face the principal. "Your teacher is quite something, letting two five-year-olds wander into the Warehouse without notifying anyone, not accompanying them, and disposing of a child's possession without permission?"

"The teacher was negligent, and we will terminate her immediately," the principal proposed, thinking this was severe enough since no harm came to the children. "Terminate? That's it? You think that's lenient? This seems more like malice to me than negligence. Call the cops. Have them investigate this teacher's recent finances for any large, unexplained deposits," Erin commanded her subordinates to report to the police.

The teachers and the principal turned pale with fright, their voices trembling. "Miss Lu, Miss Lu, the children are unharmed..."
