Logan raised his eyebrows. "Tsk, you make it sound like you've seen him before."
Cherry grinned and said, "Yanci is—"
"Cherry."
A warning reached Cherry and the words 'my Mommy' did a U-turn in her mouth and went back down her throat. In the end, she said weakly, "I'm not allowed to tell anyone."
Logan was rendered speechless.
His lip corners spasmed and he couldn't help but think the kid must be bragging.
Never mind, life was already hard for them. He wouldn't expose her little lies.
Since they didn't want to embarrass themselves, he would stop talking about it.
The kindergarten was very close to the Andersons' residence, so it took only ten minutes by car for them to reach.
It certainly lived up to its name of being the top kindergarten in New York. The International Golden Sunshine Kindergarten was like a palace, and the exterior looked magnificent and high-end.
There were parents there who had come early and were waiting to pick up their children. The cars they drove were either worth millions or were ordinary cars with flashy license plates.
When their jeep stopped at the kindergarten, sure enough, the security guard frowned and asked, "What's the purpose of your visit?"
Logan took a deep breath and replied, "We're here for an interview."
The security guard wore an expensive-looking uniform. He said gruffly, "You can't drive the car in, so enter on foot instead."
Logan parked the car at the roadside. As soon as they got off the car, they saw the security guard eagerly letting a Rolls-Royce Phantom in.
"..."
Logan's expression darkened. The slim young man was half a head taller than Nora. He lowered his head slightly and said a little unhappily, "Did you see that?
Sometimes, a car is a status symbol itself."
However, the young woman instead took Cherry's hand and walked ahead as if she was taking a stroll, seemingly unaffected.
Nora scrutinized the kindergarten.
Although the security guard was judging people by the cars they drove, after one entered the premises, one would realize that the kindergarten had been designed very fastidiously with every detail highly exquisite. In terms of their facilities, they passed with flying colors.
Next to her, a displeased Logan complained, "A place where even the security guards are so judgmental isn't suitable for children at all, much less for your daughter! You don't have to prove yourself this way! There are many outstanding people in our circle who didn't attend this kindergarten!"
Nora knew that Logan was right.
In a place like this where the students were wealthy or of noble background, the children competed more with their family backgrounds instead, so they must already have been classified into different social classes in the school.
While a place like this didn't suit ordinary children, it suited Cherry very well.
Cherry had a high IQ and was someone who couldn't sit still. She was fickle and lost interest in things very quickly. On top of that, she was quick-witted and always found various excuses not to study when she was at home.
It was likely that only stimulation provided by an environment like this would be able to make her focus.
After all, she couldn't really let Cherry play games for her entire lifetime, right?
When Logan saw that the young woman didn't seem to have any intention of changing her mind despite him wording it so clearly, the usually reticent man simply decided not to say any more.
However, he let out a snort inwardly.
Did she really think she could enroll her daughter into the school just because she got an interview spot?
The two went all the way from the security guard post to the kindergarten's main building. The more Nora saw, the more satisfied she became. Before they entered the interview room, she squatted down, looked at Cherry, and said, "Cherry, if you can stay here for the full duration of three months without revealing your identity or using your family's power, Mommy will agree to a request of yours. Can you do it?"
A request...
Cherry's eyes lit up. She nodded and said, "Yes, Okie-Dokie!"
