Billionaire’s Runaway Bride

Recently, I have tried my best to avoid these two people, but at this time, the kindergarten holds an activity.

“Mommy, will you go with us?” The two kids looked at me expectantly.

Seeing the bright eyes of the two kids, I hesitated for a moment, but couldn’t say anything to refuse. I just said, “let me go with you, okay?”

This is the only way I can think of.

Hearing this, the two kids were obviously a little disappointed. “Doesn’t Mommy want to go with us?”Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

“No, it’s just… Mommy has to work overtime this weekend. I’m afraid she doesn’t have time to accompany you,”

The two kids stared at me for a while and didn’t know if they could see that I was lying.

I feel guilty and guilty when I meet the eyes of the little guys.

This was the first group activity that the kids had been accompanied by their parents since they went to school, which was very memorable.

The kids must want me to go with them.

But… I can’t tell them that I just want to avoid Penn and Bonnie.

“Okay.” After a while, the two kids nodded in disappointment.

I breathed a sigh of relief and called Daphne.

It took a while for the phone to answer.

“Aimee, what’s wrong? What’s up?” Daphne sounded a little tired.

I frowned and asked with concern, “are you still busy?”

She heaved a long sigh and said weakly, “don’t mention it. I’ve received an ICU patient and it needs twenty-four hours to test the situation. I may not be free this week.”

Hearing this, I swallowed back the words that I asked her to help. “Then I’d better not disturb you. The patient is important, and I don’t have anything else to do here. It’s just that the two kids miss you.”

She smiled, “Okay, tell them I’ll go to play with them another day.”

After hanging up the phone, I looked up at the two kids beside me and sighed slightly. “Mother * doesn’t have time. I’ll go with you on weekend.” (* TN: here mother means sworn mother)

The two kids looked at each other, and their faces were full of joy. They held my arms and acted like a spoiled child. “Mommy is the best!”

I smiled without saying anything. Thinking of the unavoidable meeting on the weekend, my heart sank.

Penn’s POV

It was not until I picked up Lundy that I saw the notice of the Messenger group. I frowned.

On the way back, he looked at me as if he had something to say.

It should have something to do with the tree planting activity.

“Are you going to hold a tree planting activity?” I asked when we were having dinner.

Lundy nodded excitedly.

Seeing the little guy’s expectant look, my eyes darkened. I can probably guess why he has changed his personality.

It was not the first time for the kindergarten to hold such a parent-child activity. In the past, I was busy with my work. In addition, Lundy had autism, so she didn’t like to interact with children. This kind of activity was usually held when I could avoid it.

But this time, perhaps it was because of the two kids, Aviva and Cyrus, that Lundy became active for the first time.

Just as I was sighing that the two kids had a great impact on Lundy, I suddenly heard a sweet voice.

“I want to go.” He looked at me expectantly.

A hint of surprise flashed through my eyes when I heard the little guy’s voice.

Since Aimee started to hide from me, the little guy has been unwilling to talk to me, but because of this activity

“Do you really want to take part in it?” I frowned and looked at the little guy beside me.

He nodded vigorously.

Seeing this, I hesitated for a moment. Thinking of the work schedule on the weekend, I said in a low voice, “can we go next time? Daddy has work to do this time, so he can’t accompany you.”

Lundy’s eyes darkened and shook his head reluctantly.

“Aviva and Cyrus won’t leave. They’ll take part in the competition next time. You can play with them as well.”

“No!” Lundy pouted and refused.

Seeing him so stubborn, I couldn’t help but feel headache.

In the past, the little guy always avoided this kind of activity. I also think this activity is unnecessary.

I didn’t expect the little guy to be so persistent this time.

The little boy’s eyes were filled with tears. He lowered his head and mumbled, “aunt…”

My eyes darkened at his words.

I’m really busy these two days, so I didn’t expect that she would also take part in this activity.

However, when I thought of the little woman’s attitude towards me, I couldn’t help but doubt if she would take the two kids to the competition in person, or if she simply wouldn’t let them go.

The screen lit up again. It was a message from Joyce in the group chat. “No parents are talking to me in private, so I acquiesce that everyone will attend. This activity can enhance the parent-child relationship. Wish you have a good time in advance.”

The screen dimmed again.

My heart skipped a beat. I touched Lundy’s head and said in a low voice, “I know. I’ll go with you.”

Aimee’s pov

The weekend came soon.

I took the kids to the kindergarten early in the morning.

It was the first time for the kids to take part in a group activity. They were curious and looked around hand in hand with me.

Children came one after another to greet the two kids, and they also responded.

Only then did I realize how popular my two kids were in the kindergarten.

“Auntie!”

Suddenly, a weak voice came from behind.

I haven’t seen Lundy for a long time and I miss him very much. When I heard his voice, I habitually smiled and turned around to hug the little guy.

As soon as I turned around, i met the man’s gaze. My face was slightly stiff, and the smile on my face became much lighter. I only raised my hand to touch the little guy’s head. “Good morning, Lundy.”

Then I looked up at the man in front indifferently and said, “good morning, Mr. Carter.”

As it was an outdoor activity, Penn wore much more casual clothes. The dark thin windbreaker set off his tall and slender figure, and his hair was put down, hanging in front of his forehead, making him look like a teenager.

He also raised his lower lip indifferently. “I thought Miss Miller wouldn’t come today.”

Hearing this, I was stunned.

I knew what he meant. He said that I had been avoiding him these days.

When I came to my senses, I lowered my eyes as if nothing had happened. “It’s the first time that the children have participated in a group activity, so I have to accompany them.”

He agreed, “Miss Miller is right. This is the first time that Lundy has participated in a group activity since he gets better. No matter how busy I am, I have to spare some time to accompany him.”

Speaking of Justin’s illness, I looked at him gently.

Lundy looked me in the eye and smiled at me.

When I saw the innocent smile on Lundi’s face, I felt sorry for him and couldn’t bear to look away from him for a long time.

There were more and more people around Penn, and many parents came to cotton up to him.

I withdrew my sight from the little guy and looked at the two of them in a distance. “Since Mr. Carter is so busy, I won’t disturb you.”

Then I turned around and left with the two kids.

After walking for a while, I suddenly felt someone grab my skirt. I thought it was a naughty child, so I turned around and wanted him to let go.

As soon as i turned around, I saw Lundy’s pitiful face.

“Auntie, don’t you like me anymore?” Lundy grabbed my dress, pouted and looked at me with grievance.

I have been softhearted to him, so I was at a loss for a moment. I looked up at Penn in the distance.

The man was surrounded by several parents, talking about something politely, as if he didn’t see what was happening here.

I had no choice but to withdraw my sight. I squatted down and touched the little guy’s head. “Why doesn’t aunt like Lundy? Lundy is so obedient.”

Lundy sniffed and complained in a childish voice, “Auntie hasn’t come recently. Lundy miss you.”

My heart is so soft that I want to hold him in my arms and coax him.

But since so many people were watching, i could only hold the little boy’s hand. “Aunt is very busy recently. I came back from a business trip two days ago.”

Hearing this, the little guy’s eyes flashed with suspicion. He looked at me in confusion, “then, why did aunt leave?”

I was rendered speechless.

Seeing that I didn’t say anything, the little guy’s mouth slowly curled up, and his eyes were full of disappointment.

Seeing the little guy’s expression, I felt guilty.

Just when I didn’t know how to comfort , my eyes cast a shadow.
