Chapter 613 - Poor

Randy, who is now standing in front of him, looks different from the man Dani met yesterday. This time, the poor guy looked like a mess, especially from his hair and clothes. 

If Dani hadn't seen the five finger marks on Randy's cheek, he would have thought that the man and Chloe had just done some vulgar activity in the office.

Dani looked at Randy from top to bottom and felt even more sorry. He walked over to the poor guy and saw the scar that was still burning red looked painful.

Of course Randy wasn't feeling well! From then until now, he just wanted to cry without tears. Only this time he was so badly bullied by a woman! 

Just looking up at his face was enough to tell that Randy was not confident. 

"It's fine, haha. This morning, I accidentally hit the door while taking out the trash, that's why my cheeks look like this."

Dani couldn't hold back his laughter when he heard Randy's answer. Did the man think he was blind and couldn't see the five finger marks on his cheek? How come he fell and the marks left on his cheek was a slap mark?

But Dani chose not to embarrass Randy even more. He just nodded his head and watched Chloe's new room.

"The way you dispose of the garbage is unique indeed. It can give you the marks of a slap on your cheek." Dani teased without looking at Randy.

Hearing that suddenly made Randy's cheeks flush red.

Since Dani's main purpose was only to deliver some important documents, there was no other reason to keep himself in Chloe's room any longer. Finally, he walked towards the door, but before he left, Dani turned and showed a big smile.

"Hey, if I may suggest, it's better for you to just give up in the future. Don't reply to what Mrs. Chloe said. She had wrestled in the world of martial arts when she was a child. I'm sure if you dare to offend her again, you'll be dead in seconds."

After Dani came out of Chloe's room, Randy's mouth opened wide. No wonder the woman's punches and kicks were deadly. It turns out that Chloe did know martial arts all this time!

On the same day, Lisa was allowed to go home early from work. She planned to pick up William from school and tell him what had been bothering her lately.

Lisa didn't plan to tell William right now. Even Oscar didn't know about it. But as time goes by, her feelings of worry are getting worse. While in the office, she often looks at her cell phone's screen or clock instead of looking at her work. 

Since Lisa knew that Amelia was William's future mother-in-law, she asked Oscar's private driver and Dani that whenever they picked up the boy, they had to report to her that William arrived home safely.

If Lisa delayed telling William any longer, she might have had a heart attack because she was so worried. And she still doesn't want to die young.

Arriving at Oscar's house, Lisa helped the boy take off his shoes and socks. She carried William's school bag in her right hand and held the boy's hand in her left. 

Usually, what William had after coming home from school was lunch. But not today. His mother took him to the room, with the excuse to change clothes first.

Lisa knew that Oscar had some confidants to guard William from a distance. Even Lisa had time to see some of those people around William's school. But a mother's conscience can't just be put down. She knew that in the near future, when she didn't expect it, Amelia would do something she wouldn't want her to do.

"Mom, what's wrong?" William asked quietly.

Lisa helped William take off his school uniform, "Hmm? It's okay, honey. I just really miss my favorite child."

"Impossible." 

Lisa should have known that the boy was much smarter than other children his age. The boy is sensitive when the atmosphere around him feels strange or something bothers his father or mother.

Without letting Lisa reply, William continued, "Huh? Then why does your face look weird like this?" William frowned, "Mama, you can tell me anything you know."

Actually, Lisa wasn't too sure whether she had to tell William right now. She was afraid that if she told him her plan, the boy would be gloomy and wouldn't want to talk to her. She and Oscar had promised that they would not transfer William to another school.

But for William's sake and lessening Lisa's worries, the boy will have to change schools in the near future.

Lisa then got up from William's bed, opened the boy's wardrobe and took a change of clothes. Before squatting in front of William, Lisa kissed the boy's forehead lightly.

"You know that I love you, right?" Lisa asked as she helped William put on a light green t-shirt that had a picture of a dinosaur on it.

William cleared his throat, "I know."

"No matter what happens, I love you very much. You know that right?"

"I know Ma," William replied, the boy stood up from the bed and put on his shorts, "What's the matter? Don't make me more curious, please!"

Lisa circled William's face with unsure eyes then sighed. It was better for her to say it now than to delay and make the problem bigger.

"Honey, I…. I have a plan to transfer you to another school." Lisa finally said.

At first, she thought that after she said that William would get angry and then cry hysterically, just like she imagined. But what the boy was doing now made Lisa dumbfounded.

William just kept quiet and looked at Lisa with a look of disbelief. He looked like he was trying to understand what his mother meant.

"Transferring me to another school? Can you tell me the reason why you promised a few days ago?" 

Hearing that question leave William's lips made Lisa realize that Oscar's blood was running through the boy. Firm and outspoken, her boy really does not like to stall for time.

"Because I think that your current school is not safe for you. And I just want my favorite child to have a safe and comfortable school. So in the end, I was thinking of transferring you to another school."

"Did Papa know that Mama wanted to transfer me to another school?"
