Supreme Mars novel Chapter 46

Nadine parked the car near the kindergarten and walked with Leo to pick up Emilia.

The rain continued to fall, and the teachers’ held umbrellas for the children. They personally escorted the children to their parents as if they were precious treasure. They only returned after exchanging some greetings with the parents.

Even the principal of the kindergarten took the lead in escorting the children.

"Daddy!"

Leo heard a familiar voice shouting from the kindergarten.

He looked in the direction of the voice and saw Emilia. The principal of the kindergarten escorted Emilia to Leo as if she were a princess.

Leo picked up Emilia and spun circles with her in his arms. Then, he said with a smile, "Let me see. Did you get wet?"

It was just a simple greeting, but the face of the principal, who was standing by the side, changed drastically. He hurriedly explained, "Mr. Cohen, don't worry, she's nice and dry."

Leo was stunned for a moment. He then looked at the new principal and said with a smile, "Thank you."

"Of course, of course."

The principal wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and handed over a business card with a flattering smile and said, "My name is Tony Ramos. I was promoted thanks to you. Don't worry, Mr. Cohen. I'll take good care of your daughter, and won't let her suffer any problems."

"Thanks to me?" Leo asked doubtfully.

Next, he recalled something and turned to look at Nadine.

After Ken O'Brien dropped out of the school, the kindergarten was targeted by the Department of Education and underwent a great reorganization.

After the reorganization, some "gifts" were prepared.

The Department of Education highlighted several teachers and fired them for negligence. It was said that the principal of Kaiser Kindergarten was also implicated.

Nadine was the one behind this.

As soon as she made a phone call, her subordinates began to pile pressure on the Department of Education, stating that this matter had aroused the anger of a high-profile individual. If it was not handled to their satisfaction, the department would bear the brunt of the consequences.

Naturally, the staff of the Department of Education was both shocked and dismayed They launched an operation on Kaiser Kindergarten and some elementary, middle, and high schools where the wealthy attended were also implicated. Many teachers who had been bribed were promptly fired.

"You are so evil." Leo looked at Nadine, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

Nadine snorted in response, "They only have themselves to blame for provoking you."

Leo accepted Tony's business card and sent him away after they exchanged a few words.

He turned around and found Emilia in his arms looking straight at Nadine behind him. She asked cutely "Dad, why are the eyes of this lady red?"

Nadine looked uneasy and she lowered her head in a flustered manner.

Leo's expression changed slightly. Children often spoke their minds and Emilia's words had hit Nadine's sore spot.

However, before Leo could speak, Emilia smiled again. "They’re so pretty!"

"..."

Nadine's body trembled lightly again. She raised her head in shock and glanced at Emilia.

She had always felt insecure because of her unusual irises. This was the first time she had heard someone praise them like this.

"Emilia, this is Miss Nadine." Leo took the opportunity to say.

"Miss Nadine."

Emilia twisted around in Leo's arms and spread her tiny arms open before saying, "Carry me."

"..."

Nadine trembled again and stared blankly at Emilia. For a moment, her body was so stiff that she didn't know what to do.

"Carry her. I said she would like you."

Leo took a few steps towards Nadine and smiled at her. "I'm not afraid that you will laugh at me. When I first saw her, I was even more nervous than you."

Nadine's hands moved slightly, but her eyes remained fixed upon Emilia.

She had grown up in an environment filled with death. If she did not kill, she would not be able to survive. Her emotions had been squashed ever since she was a child. She did not even know what it meant to cry or laugh. Later on, she met Leo, and he was the first one to accept her and recognize her for who she was.

However, her heart pounded when she looked at Emilia.

It was as if her heart was about to jump out of her throat.
