"Sister Jar, do you have someone you like?"
Suddenly, an important question came from the computer's speaker. Nathaniel Cooper immediately focused on Karen Joy Kyle, waiting for her answer.
"Of course I do..." On the computer screen, Karen Joy smiled sweetly and her voice was soft and sweet. "I like my grandparents, my parents..."
"Sister Jar, we're asking if there is anybody in particular that you like?" Some students protested. Although they were young, they knew a lot.
The love for her family was different from romantic love. The children were not letting her go.
"I do." Karen Joy smiled and said mysteriously, "The boy I like... is your Mr. President."
"Wow, Mr. President! Sister Jar likes Mr. President!!" The students were happy to hear this answer.
The Sister Jar that they liked also liked their hero, so they became excited.
"But Mr. President has a girlfriend." Someone commented.
As soon as these words came out, the friends who had just cheered suddenly became quiet. They blinked their eyes and looked at Karen Joy.
Sister Jar couldn't be with the man she liked. They were suddenly very sad.
The little children's unintentional comment was like a heavy punch hitting into Karen Joy's heart. She felt sad in her heart and almost couldn't hold her smile.
But soon, she suppressed her bad mood and smiled again. "Students, don't you all like Mr. President too?"
"We do." The students answered in unison.
Because Mr. President personally came to participate in the rescue work last time, so Mr. President became a superhero in the hearts of the people in the disaster area, and everyone liked him.
"If all of you can like him, then why can't I like him?" Karen Joy answered them appropriately.
All the students nodded in unison. They seemed to understand that the admiration Sister Jar had for Mr. President was the same admiration they had for him too.
"We are the citizens of Mr. President and he is our leader. Let's admire him together and make our country stronger for him." Karen Joy felt that she was really Brother Lionel's biggest fan. She did not forget to celebrate him at all times.
Karen Joy's bitterness escaped the children’s eyes, but it failed to escape Nathaniel's eyes in front of the computer.
She did not share the same kind of admiration that the children did, but that she really had a good and different impression of Nathaniel.
He thought about what happened last night. She admitted that her feelings for Brother Lionel were just gratitude and dependence, not love.
Her feelings for Brother Lionel were not considered romantic, she also told these children that the person she liked was Mr. President. So did she mean that she had a crush for the President instead?
Nathaniel's face turned very gloomy and he squinted his eyes. He felt icy all of a sudden.
"Mr. President, Helix Inc's supplies will be distributed this afternoon. Here are the approval papers. Please have a look."
Jason Lesley broke into the office in a very bad time. He did not care what the President was doing, and he hurriedly reported his own matters.
As he received a cold and ruthless look from Nathaniel, Jason finally realized that it was not the right time for him to come in.
"Greg is the person in charge of Helix Inc, shouldn't he be the one to look at these things?" Nathaniel raised his eyebrows and said sternly.
