Priscilla stared at him for a while. Her heart was pounding, entirely out of her control. Lilly's father is charming, making me unable to extricate myself.
Her cheeks were burning, and this feeling of love made her intoxicated.
Priscilla did not notice a male teacher approaching her from a distance.
He was the physical education teacher. Generally, there were few male teachers in kindergarten, except for private schools like Animaux International Kindergarten.
In almost every class, there would be a male teacher, and one of them was Shawn, one of Priscilla's admirers.
Shawn was a warm, outgoing PE teacher who was very kind.
He lightly tapped Priscilla on the shoulder, startling her. She patted her chest and pouted, "It's you! You scared me!"
Shawn said, "Come with me."
Priscilla asked nervously, "Where are we going?"
Shawn led her to a secluded place and looked at her anxiously.
"Is everything okay? I heard two kids in your class have a fight, and their parents even came to the school... You were the one who was watching them at the time."
Priscilla looked regretful, bit her lip, and said, "It's all my fault. I was distracted... and didn't pay attention."
Shawn patted her gently to comfort her and said, "It's okay. You didn't expect it to happen, right? But you can't daydream like that when working in the future."
He sounded helpless, knowing her tendency to be absent-minded, which was cute.
Priscilla sniffed and said in a pitiful tone, "I was thinking about you at that time..."
Shawn asked in a gentle voice, "Have you made up your mind? Will you choose him or me?"
Priscilla looked painful, "Shawn... please don't put pressure on me anymore. I'm struggling."
"I love you so much, but Flynn is a good man who likes me. He would be devastated if he lost me. Although I don't like him, I'm afraid I will hurt him. I can't do it, really can't do it."
Shawn sighed. "Okay, I won't force you."
Priscilla said again, "Give me some time. I will slowly make him accept it."
Shawn nodded.
Priscilla also said, "By the way, do you know who Lilly's parents are? Especially her father. Oh, I just looked it up. He looks so powerful. I'm scared."
Shawn said, "Lilly is Hannah's younger sister, and her maternal family is the Crawford family... As for her father, I don't know much about that."
Priscilla secretly felt shocked. The Crawford family... Is that a very low-key prominent family?
She remembered the man who had been quiet and wearing a suit, who turned out to be the big CEO, just like in the novel.
Priscilla's heart skipped a beat again.
After the fight, Lilly did not go home with her father but insisted on finishing class and only went home after school.
Hannah frowned when she saw the wound on Lilly's face and knew about her fight with someone.
"He dared to bully you!" Hannah was angry, "Why didn't you call me? I would have beat him up too!"
What a pity she could not even fight with her little sister!
Lilly replied, "Um, Hannah. If I had called you, it would have been too late."
Hannah was angry. "Yeah... I'll beat him up whenever I see that naughty kid!
She was so frustrated because she promised her family she would take good care of Lilly.
On the first day, she already had a bruise on her face.
Hannah and Lilly got on the school bus.
As the school bus left one by one, parents who came to pick up their children also took them away, and the lively kindergarten returned to quietness.
Soon, a man stood at the kindergarten gate, holding a lunch box.
Priscilla scurried, rubbing her hands and complaining, "Flynn, why are you here? Didn't I tell you not to come to the kindergarten to see me?"
Flynn handed her the lunch box and pursed his lips, saying, "I'm afraid you'll forget to eat again, and you will get a stomach ache."
Priscilla took it and said, "Thank you, Flynn. You're so kind to me."
Flynn said, "Just a thank you?"
Priscilla replied, "Well, what else do you want?"
Flynn pointed to his cheek.
