Heidi’s adorable appearance was enough to put a smile on Moira’s face. She went over to her. “Did you
listen to what teacher said today?”
Heidi’s adorable appearance was enough to put a smile on Moira’s face. She went over to her. “Did you
listen to what teacher said today?”
“Of course!” Heidi was puffing her little chest. “Aunt Moira, take a look at this! The teacher has awarded
me with a red flower.”
Moira couldn’t resist touching her ponytail after seeing her proud little face. She bent over and said,
“Heidi, you’re such a good girl!”
After praising Heidi, Moira straightened his back and rolled her eyes at Jacob.
Jacob frowned slightly before letting out a smile. After stopping momentarily, he continued leading
Heidi to the side.
“Hey! Where are you bringing Heidi this time?” Moira said in an unfriendly tone. “I’m telling you now! I’ll
bring Heidi home today no matter what!”

Moira was caught off guard by his answer. At that instance, she was unable to find the words to protest.
Half an hour later, Jacob was driving his car into the small neighborhood.
“What are you doing?” Moira was a little startled.
Other than the residents themselves, no one was allowed to enter the neighborhood by car. Then, it
crossed her mind that the man in front of her seemed pretty wealthy. Shortly after, she was able to
come to her own conclusions. She was scoffing at Jacob silently.
Hmph! He thinks that cash is king.
Shortly after, the car came to a halt in front of Building No.2. After helping Heidi down the car, Moira
gave him a look. “Alright, this is far enough. If Aunt Flora sees you…”
Moira thought she had Jacob all figured out. She continued to threaten lightly. “I don’t think you would
want my aunt to learn about your little scheme. Not sure if she would just hand over her granddaughter
to you.”
Jacob was not the type to falter when threatened. He looked at her calmly. “I can bring my daughter to
meet her grandpa and grandma now.”
“You…” Moira was left speechless.
Jacob shook his head mockingly. He turned to tell her daughter in a gentle voice, “Come on now.
Daddy’s going to bring you to the places that was mentioned earlier at the kindergarten.”
Heidi’s eyes glowed with excitement. She was nodding her head enthusiastically. “Let’s go! Let’s Go!
Quickly, Aunt Moira! Put me down now!”
Places? To see what?
Moira was befuddled. Heidi was wriggling in her hands, so she had to set her down on the floor.
The moment her feet touched the ground, Heidi sprinted toward Jacob. She grabbed him by his hand.
“Let’s go! I can’t wait to see Dixy, Bugsby, and Slinky!”
“Hmph! I’m going to wait and see what you’ve got in store.”
Moira watched as the two of them walked into Building No.2. She let out a scoff and followed after
them.

They went into the elevator together. Moira thought to herself when she saw Jacob pressed the button
to the twelfth floor.
I kept quiet because wanted to see what he has up his sleeves. I’m staying on the fifteenth floor
together with Heidi, so why are we going to the twelfth floor instead?
Ding!
Heidi ran out of the elevator once the door opened.
“Slowly.” Jacob reminded her and followed afterward.
Around the same time, at the Lynch Residence in Rowan Lane, Franklin announced himself upon
entering the yard. “I’m back!”
Suzie poked her pretty head out from the second-floor window. “Why are you back so early today?”
“Don’t you want me to be back early?” Franklin replied with a smile and quickly went up the stairs.
“Is Janelle back yet?” He asked while caressing the bulge on his wife’s tummy.
“You jest!” Suzie rolled her eyes at her husband. “Janelle called just now, saying that she’ll be slightly
late today. You still haven’t told me why are you back so early today.”
Heidi’s adorable appearance was enough to put a smile on Moira’s face. She went over to her. “Did you
listen to what teacher said today?”
