My Ex-Wife Remarried Me novel Chapter 37

"Why is Mommy coming?" lan probed.

"Cause it's a holiday, Matt! Have you forgotten? It's Wednesday and the preschool is only open for half a day.Our teacher said they need to sanitize the place, so we must go home.That's why I called Mrs.Grint and asked her to get you before time,’’ Vivian replied happily, still feeling proud of herself for saving her brother in time.

Matteo had given her Mrs.Grint's phone number beforehand, so Vivian called the nanny and asked for her help to go look for Matteo.

She held lan's hand and skipped lightly into their classroom with him.

Their teacher spotted them and waved at them.

"Hey, Vivian, I see you've got your brother.Come on, you two, get your bags and be ready to go home.Your mom's almost here.Let's go."

"Yes!"

Vivian's crispy voice rang loud and clear beside lan's ears.

He rolled his eyes as the girl went ahead and grabbed her bag.

Despite being exasperated, lan found his surroundings intriguing.

He had never been to a preschool, and all this was totally new to him.

Actually, it was not like he did not attend preschool at all.He attended the best preschool in Avenport.

The environment there was impeccable; the facilities were top-notch, and the children came from affluent families.

His teachers were never down to earth and the kids there were never friendly.

To be precise, it was almost impossible to make any friends.

lan let Vivian had her way with him as she put Matteo's bag on his back and they followed their teacher out to the entrance.

"Mommy's here!"

Seeing Amora from afar, Vivian squealed at the top of her voice as she ran towards her mother.

Once again, lan went speechless.

His gaze trailed her steps, and he suddenly stopped at the door.

Huh? Isn't this the doctor who came to the house in the morning? I just parted ways with her in front of Daddy's company.

What's she doing here? She's their mother? lan was confounded as he looked at the two of them hugging each other.

"Matt, what are you waiting for? Come to me! We're going home,’ Amora cried out to him and waved enthusiastically when she realized lan was standing still.

What's wrong with Matt today.

Why isn't he smiling? Is he angry? Was I late? Amora let go of Vivian and came over to check if Matteo was okay.

"What's wrong, Matt? Are you angry with me? Is it because I'm late? I'm so sorry Matt.I didn't know y'all are ending early today.I got here right after I got the call.Please don't be angry, okay?"

Amora held out her hand and reached for his head, wanting to pat his head.

But lan shied away instinctively, avoiding her touch.

Her hand froze in the air.

For a moment, she thought the boy standing in front of her was not Matteo, but the boy she saw in the morning.

"Matt?"
