Nicole saw that it was almost time, so she took Levi's little hand and said, "Let’s go. I heard that there's a parent-child activity later. What sports did you sign up for? Running? I didn't wear sneakers today though..."
Levi helplessly followed Nicole outside and replied, "I signed up for Go!"
After Nicole heard this, she paused for a while before she said, “Great..."
Levi raised his head in surprise.
Nicole frankly added, "I don’t know how to play Go."
Levi was speechless.
They went to the appointed room and saw that the two empty seats on the opposite side of the table were already filled.
Nicole frowned.
It turned out to be Eric Ferguson.
To Nicole’s surprise, the other seat was occupied by Cheryl Lichman.
It looked like Eric still had some feelings for his son after all.
Nicole glanced at them casually, walked over, and sat down.
The teacher hurriedly greeted her. "Ms.
Stanton, please take a seat."
It seemed that she was the last to arrive.
Nicole smiled apologetically and ignored the two gazes that fell on her.
She tried to concentrate on the teacher's words.
After about half an hour, the parent-child activity finally began.
Nicole took Levi out for a breather.
Levi held Nicole's hand and led her to the swing in the garden. It was a very beautiful place.
The area was shaded by tall bushes that were interspersed with many bright and fragrant flowers.
It looked like a secret garden that had been deliberately decorated.
"Auntie, are you scared of that uncle who sat across from you?"
Nicole was taken aback. "Nonsense! I'm not scared of him!"
"But you didn’t dare to look at him!"
"I just didn’t want to look at him."
Nicole paused and felt a little depressed.
If she had known this earlier, she would not have come.
The two of them were talking when they heard voices from outside.
"Yasmin, since Mr. Ferguson and I are already here, we'll participate in this event as Chance's parents. You're a nanny, so I think that it's inappropriate for you to stay here any longer. You may leave."
It was Cheryl's voice.
Nicole blinked ;d);WNT: frowned.
Sure enough, Gerard’s younger sister, Cheryl, was interested in Eric.
That was too obvious.
Yasmin did not refute her sharply and said to Eric, "Mr. Ferguson, I have no other intentions. I'm here as the young master’s friend. He invited me to come today. If my
existence disturbs your date, I can leave. But this kind of parent-child activity is of little significance to the young master, and I didn't expect Ms. Lichman to come uninvited. No matter what, I hope that you won't use a child as a tool for you to achieve certain goals."
"What do you mean by that?! Don't forget that you're just a nanny!"
Judging by Cheryl's voice, Nicole guessed that Cheryl was furious.
Yasmin wanted to say something, but Eric interrupted, sounding upset.
"That's enough, Ms. Lichman. I didn't invite you. Who asked you to come?"
Cheryl sounded a little aggrieved.
"I heard my brother say that you're always busy, so you don't pay much attention to Chance. I was just afraid that Chance would be sad if no one came today, so I came here by myself."
Eric was already unhappy. When he heard this, his face turned gloomier.
