Tracy’s actions stunned everyone on the spot.
Joker burst with angry and shame. Not only was he rejected by the woman he wooed, but he was outmatched by a poor bastard holding a wild flower.
Staring at the couples’ back with crimson red eyes, Joker smashed the roses on the ground, and shouted, “You’ll pay for this. This is not over.”
On their way home, Tracy was still holding the small wild flower in her hand, while looking through the window of the shotgun seat. Baron glanced at her tired look, having no idea what was in her mind.
"You okay? Babe?" He asked with care.
Tracy then came to her sense and gently shook her head, "I’m alright, let's pick up Lara!"
“Let’s go.” Baron was about to do so.
However, he was still concerned. Something was obviously going on in Tracy’s mind, but she didn't want to say it.
Soon, the couple arrived at Blue Sky Kindergarten.
Lara was so happy to see her parents came together. Before she left the kindergarten, she already shouted excitedly, "Daddy! Mommy! Over here!"
"See that? That’s my mom and dad. They are picking me up! Together!"
Lara couldn’t help showing off to her friends before hugging her parents.
Now it was the pick-up time after school.
Baron was waiting in line, feeling even more guilty as he looked at the smile of his daughter.
As soon as Lara saw Baron, she excitedly rushed towards him while calling her dad out loud.
Baron hugged her up and spin around, and said with a smile, "Miss daddy?"
"Yes!" Lara embraced Baron’s neck and said with a chuckle.
It seemed her mother was a little moody. Lara immediately added with a grin, "I miss Daddy, and also Mommy."
Tracy was at lost, and even missed her daughter’s words.
Lara looked at Baron, eyes sparkling with innocence.
“Mom, Lara says she misses you.” Baron reminded her.
Just then Tracy recovered and quickly reached out to Lara with an embarrassed smile, "Mom misses you too!"
"Mom, Miss Lynda praised me for the happy family I painted."
“Oh that’s great! Isn’t that sweet!”
"Dad, come here and hold mom's hand."
……
The family left the kindergarten, chatting and laughing.
But Tracy was still not distracted.
"Lara, let’s skype tonight!" Baron had to make the promise to keep Lara happy, when he was about to leave.
“I have something on my schedule, may come home late. We should do it another time.” Tracy replied with apologies.
Baron was slightly surprised, that Tracy would stay late.
"Do you need me to be with you?" Baron asked.
Tracy refused quickly, "I’ll do fine."
“Well, call me if you change your mind.” Baron left.
On his way back, Baron made a phone call, “Was Tracy in some trouble at work today? Find out.”
"Sure thing, boss." Camel called back as soon as Baron got home.
But Baron went berserk as he knew what happened after the call.
He lost his temper several times after returning to Cona.
“This lovely fool. Everything I have belongs to her, how could she still bear the bullies?” he was annoyed.
Baron turned the car around and headed away.
When he just took over Samho Group, Baron had cleared out the Perry family from the management. But, he still kept a lot of employees, for the company’s development.
When Tracy was the chairman of the board, she was very strict in the office, and therefore offended many people. Now she insisted on starting as a beginner staff. This made her work hours like a living hell.
Today, the manager gave her an arduous task that was way beyond her payroll.
And this task was for Tracy to meet up with Waldo Scott, the owner of LaGrande Group, for a potential co-op.
