Veronica held a blood tube, put it into the specimen bag, and sealed it. Then, she put it in the bag and left the car.
Animaux Private Academy ended at 4.30 pm. She had already inquired. Josh had been promoted to 2nd grade this year, in 2nd grade Class 3, while Drake had been promoted to 4th grade, in 4th grade Class 1.
The school gate was full of parents queuing to pick up their children. Veronica queued in 2nd grade Class 3's line, and soon it was her turn.
The teacher was stunned and asked Veronica politely, "Hello, which classmate are you the parent of?"
Veronica tried to look dignified and answered, "Hi, I'm Josh Crawford's mother."
After saying that, Veronica suddenly had a feeling. No matter where she went, she was the most attractive of the crowd, and everyone was eager to know her.
It felt good to use the identity of Anthony's wife!
The teacher looked puzzled. She had never seen Josh's mother. Most of the time, Jack, Bettany, or Hugh came to pick Josh and Drake up, and occasionally Anthony would come. But their mother never came. The family relationship questionnaire also showed that Josh and Drake's mother was deceased.
Now that the dead person suddenly came back to life, the teacher was a little frightened, but then she wondered if Veronica was Josh's stepmother.
After those thoughts flashed by, Ms. Swanson looked at Josh. "Josh, your mother is here to pick you up. Come here to make sure."
Then, she looked at Veronica again. "I'm sorry, Madam. It's your first time to come here. Please call the Crawford family. I need to confirm."
It was normal. The teacher could not let a stranger take away the child even if the other party came and said she was the child's family.
Josh came out and looked at Veronica strangely. Why is she here?
Before he could speak, Veronica hurriedly said, "Josh, come here! Your father is busy. He asked me to pick you up."
Then, she smiled and said to the teacher, "His father is in a meeting. It's not convenient to call him now. Josh recognizes me."
Ms. Swanson looked at Josh. "Josh, is she your mother?"
As no other members of the Crawford family came to pick up Josh today, Ms. Swanson could not figure out the situation for a while.
Josh was speechless. The DNA result had not come out. He knew Veronica but could not confirm if she was his mother. But whether it was or not, he would not go with Veronica. To be honest, he did not like her very much. He wanted a mother. But he would not acknowledge Veronica as his mother.
Josh said coldly, "She's not my mother."
Ms. Swanson was surprised, and the surrounding gazes became inquiring. Veronica felt the sights around her, and her expression darkened.
This child is as annoying as my sister. How dare he embarrass me in public? Does he know manners? After I enter the Crawford family, the first thing I must do is discipline him well! And Lilly too. She called me a bad doctor when we met for the first time. They're all wild children! They urgently need my training!
Veronica took a deep breath to suppress the displeasure in her heart. She bent down to face Josh and said, "Josh, are you still angry with me? I just don't let you play with Lilly. It doesn't matter if Lilly doesn't go to kindergarten, but you must come to school."
Josh had a younger sister, and he liked Lilly very much. So Veronica's words seemed credible.
