Chesney was still laughing before the call was connected. However, she began to pretend by switching her facial expression and even her tone immediately when the call was connected.
Julian, who was watching from the corner, was stunned.
Oh dear, Chessie was... kind of talented at acting.
Chesney gazed at Julian proudly and then continued speaking in a fearful and needy tone. "Where are you, mommy? Chessie is i n pain. I want mommy...”
Susan was nervous and anxious when she heard Chesney's weak and suffering voice.
Panicked, she asked, "Where’s daddy, Chessie? Hurry up, get him to take you to the hospital! Mommy will meet you there, okay?"
"I don't want to. I don't want to go to the hospital." Chesney suddenly burst into tears. "The hospital is scary. Could you come and check my tummy, mommy? Please? I want mommy..."
Susan was panicking, so she agreed instantly. “Alright, Chessie, I'll be there soon. Could you pass the phone to your daddy?"
"Okay, mommy, please come," Chesney said as she sobbed and then handed the cell phone to Julian.
Julian looked at Chesney with a rewarding gaze as he took the phone.
Meanwhile, Susan was walking out of the house as she spoke on the phone.
"What's going on, Julian?! How did Chessie get a stomach ache?"
"I'm not really sure." Julian added as he glimpsed at Chesney, "Perhaps... it’s because of the sorbet?"
Instantly, Susan was pissed off. "What's wrong with you, Julian? Why did you give her a sorbet when the weather is so cold? Are you crazy?”
"She wanted it..."
"You just gave her one because she wanted it? Forget about it, let's talk later!"
Susan got in the car angrily.
Julian coughed and pretended to ask, "Are you sure you want to come? I can bring Chessie over if you don't feel like seeing m e.” 'Chessie is in pain, and you want her to go
through all this hassle?" Susan asked angrily.
"I’m sorry, you have to come over then," Julian answered helplessly.
Susan put down the phone immediately and got the driver to speed up.
"How was it?" Chesney smiled as she gazed at Julian.
"Amazing!" Julian gave her a thumbs-up.
Chesney chuckled and then moved a bar stool over. She clumsily climbed up and stood on the bar stool. "I've created this opportunity for you, dear comrade Shaw. Kindly utilize this opportunity wisely since I have to pretend to be sick for a few days anyhow," Chesney said as she tapped Julian's shoulder.
"Yes, Your Highness. I will not let you down,” Julian said seriously.
Chesney nodded with satisfaction. "I’m glad that you finally woke up. Oh, remember to inform the admin staff of my kindergarten...”
"Let me handle the leave application. I'll get it done for you," Julian said.
Chesney got down from the bar stool after giving Julian a rewarding gaze.
However, she kept climbing up and down the bar stool repeatedly.
"What are you doing, my sweetheart?” Julian asked in shock.
Helplessly, Chesney asked Julian as she gasped, "Could you tell me how you earned so much money, daddy? My brain seems to be functioning better than yours. Am I not supposed to look sick since I'm unwell? We'll both be in trouble if the plan is ruined."
Chesney continued climbing up and down repeatedly until her cheeks flushed and her forehead was covered in sweat.
Julian seemed inspired and quickly cheered for Chesney. Meanwhile, he also got the house doctor over so that they knew what to say later.
Suddenly, the security guard called.
