“My wife looks so stunning in that dress.” Horace whispered to her ear.
Clara was bashful.
The shop assistant were very efficient, so they could leave soon. Otherwise, Clara didn’t know what Horace would say.
It was already 10 AM. Clara and Horace planned to pick Neo up at school, and they could go there together.
Horace agreed with Clara, so he drove directly to Neo’s school.
Neo’s school was a posh school. There were only few students in one class, so Clara was reassured.
After all, school was where children could go bad.
Although the school produced many talents, it could also corrupt a bunch of students.
Many students turned bad after they went to school. Some misled, while others blindly followed suit.
Over time, children could no longer return back.
If there weren’t many people in one class, it would be better for children’s development,
“Clara, what do you say Neo is doing now?” Horace wondered what Neo was up to.
But he had no idea, so he asked Clara. Chit chat could relieve the boredom of driving.
“Well, I think he is listening to the teacher.”
Clara thought Neo must be learning new things. Thought he was only in kindergarten, the teacher would still teach them some useful knowledge.
“Well, maybe.” Clara’s answer met his expectations.
“The school is going to be over. We’d better arrive on time, so we won’t disturb other children.”
Clara believed that if they went in early, they might disturb the class.
And the students might be distracted. But Clara was overthinking.
When Clara arrived, the class wasn’t over. Clara sat in the parents’ room and looked at the monitor.
Neo’s classmates were playing, but Neo was writing and painting there alone. She couldn’t see what he was writing.
To her surprise, Neo was surrounded by a large group of girls.
Clara carefully observed the students in his class. There were only ten boys and ten girls.
But coincidentally, there were nine girls around Neo. The one girl left was crying because she couldn’t get close to him.
Clara was confused at the situation.
She knew Neo was handsome, but this was outrageous.
“Neo, like you, is popular among girls.” Clara glanced at Horace.
Horace and Neo were alike. They were always surrounded by a group of women. Even if the girls couldn’t talk to them, it was great for them to stick around.
Horace and Neo were very similar in this respect.
Horace grinned mischievously, “Are you jealous, honey?”
“No way.” Clara glanced at him and soon looked away. She continued to stare at Neo.
Neo seemed to notice that someone was looking at him, so he looked back in that direction. Unexpectedly, he saw his mother.
Clara waved at him, and Neo smiled happily.
The girls around Neo looked at his smile. They really wanted to jump up and down happily.
This was the first time they saw Neo’s smile.
Clara was speechless. Those girls were already so crazy since childhood. what would happen when they grew up?
Neo was already so adorable as a kid. What if he grew up?
Clara was lost in thought. She needed to find a way to make him less popular.
But it seemed too difficult.
What Horace said made Clara’s face lit up, but soon darkened.
“Find him a girlfriend. He won’t be like this if he has a girlfriend.” Horace himself was a successful case.
He suggested to Clara.
But Clara really wanted to beat him up.
How old was Neo? Finding him a girlfriend? Was him kidding her?
As Clara complained, Neo walked out.
He jumped into Clara’s arms and took Horace’s hand. He laughed joyfully.
“Why are you here?” He was dubious. It was usually Isaac who picked him up. Why was it Mom and Dad today?
And it was lunch time. He couldn’t go home now.
“Did you forget? We are going to great grandpa’s place today.” Clara said.
She patted on his head, smiling gently.
Clara was submerged in maternal love.
“Oh, I forgot about it.” Neo scratched his head, smiling.
“Hey, look. Are they Neo’s parents? ”
“I don’t know.”
“So handsome, and so pretty.”
Those children didn’t dare to approach. They looked at them from a distance, but Clara and Horace could still hear it.
Those children admired Neo’s good-looking parents.
At the same time, they started to complain why they didn’t have such parents.
“Maybe this is fate.” A little girl said clearly and loudly.
Clara couldn’t help laughing.
Fate? How come the kids nowadays have become so mature?
Clara looked at the girl.
But she didn’t find her in Neo’s classroom, which meant that she wasn’t Neo’s classmate.
But she looked so pretty.
The little girl noticed that Clara was looking at her, so she walked forward to Clara and Horace. “Hello.”
“Hello.” Clara smiled at the little girl. Horace just nodded at her, without saying anything.
Horace had no interest in dealing with kids, besides Neo, of course.
“Are you here to pick up Neo?” she asked.
“Yes.”
“Then you must be busy. You should hurry up then. BYE.” The little girl said. She and Neo shared the similar mature temperament.
“OK, goodbye.”
Clara then walked out together with Neo and Horace. After getting in the car, she asked Neo about the girl.
It turned out that the girl was in the class next to Neo’s. Her name was Natalie Saunders. She also came from privileged background.
That was why she acted so mature.
