Chapter 38 Chapter 38 That put Steven in a difficult position. "But Mommy Jessie's pregnant. It's not safe for her to pick you up from school," It didn't matter how Holly was. Even she becslightly annoyed at Steven's refusal to bear the responsibility of collecting Zachary," In other words, you're not free to pick up Zachary, and your wife is also unable to cdue to her health." "Yeah..." replied a sheepish Steven.

Holly couldn't understand how such an irresponsible parent could exist. "Well, what do you plan on doing about your child?" Steven didn't know how to answer her question, so he stayed silent. The two remained in that stalemate for a while.

Ultimately, Zachary was the one who broke the silence and offered a solution. "Daddy, how about we ask Ms. Dawson to sendhfor now?" "Good idea!" Steven eagerly replied. "Thank you for your troubles, Ms. Dawson." n unreasonable Holly felt the strong urge to roll her eyes. In her many years of teaching, this was her first tencountering such an parent.

That said, she still sent Zachary hfor his safety. She even phoned the kindergarten's principal to update the latter about the state of Zachary's family.

Zachary unlocked the door with his fingerprint and stood at the doorway to bid goodbye to Holly. Once Holly left, he walked into the living room, shut the door, and shouted, "Mommy!" He figured Jessica had to be hsince Steven mentioned it was unsafe for her to go out earlier. Yet, nobody responded to him, no matter how much he called out.

Not to mention, only the living room lights were on. The lights in the other rooms were off. He returned to his bedroom, took out his iPad, and wanted to call Jessica to ask where she was. Yet, he had just opened the Instagramwhen he saw a new post from Jessica. He clicked on the post, which had just been uploaded. It was a photo of Jessica playing outdoors with Cody. Only then did Zachary realize Jessica was too busy keeping Cody company to care about him.

"But Mommy Jessie would always bringalong if she ever took Cody out to play before my biological mom and dad got divorced... Why are things different now?" Zachary wondered, unable to understand Jessica's sudden change. Zane was still driving on the road. Willow rested against the car window, her big, doe eyes focusing on the view outside. She seemed to notice something and suddenly whipped her head around with tears in her eyes. Then, she snuggled into my arms.

She murmured in a way that sounded like she was down in the dumps. "Mommy..." I thought she was unwell and immediately asked, "What's wrong?" "Daddy has never takenshopping at a grocery store before." Willow softly complained, "I often hear my classmates in kindergarten talking about how their parents take them shopping every few days..." She raised her head to gaze at me. "Well, we're a family, too. Shouldn't we Before she could finish speaking, Zane turned at the next intersection. He then parked at the nearest mall's basement parking.

Zane wanted to Impress Willow so she would love him more. So, after doing all of that, he even made sure to declare his intentions." Daddy will always do whatever you want with you." "Yay!" Willow hopped out of the car before urging us to join her. "Hurry up, Mommy and Daddy!"

It was probably rare for Zane to see Willow this energized. He couldn't help but share a look with me, which promptedto join him outside the car

Willow held my hand and immediately told us what to do."h saw that many parents would say no whenever their kids want to buy something. Let's try doing that later!" an unusual request, but I wanted to fulfill her wishes. "Alright."

This mall was the biggest one nearby. It had three floors, with a grocery store on the first-floor, and sold all sorts of items. Willow picked a shopping cart with a built-in child's seat before stating straight at Zane.
