Since it wasn't the weekend yet, Sharon had to send the children to school today, and Sadie wasn't quite happy. First, because she had to go to school, and second, her father was gone.
Why did daddy disappear after she woke up?
He had played building blocks with her and had dinner together yesterday. But today, he was gone by the time she was awake.
Therefore, she felt a little upset.
Upon arriving at the school, Sadie was still so upset that she couldn't summon any energy. She even tugged at Sharon's sleeves and said, "Mommy, can I not go to school today?"
Sharon sighed and crouched down to ask, "Why?"
"Dad's gone. Could he never returned again?" Sadie blinked her doe eyes. "But I don't want him to be gone just like that."
Sharon was taken aback. She had never thought that Sadie would miss Stanley to this extent, and for the first time, she realized that Stanley's role as a father could mean a lot to the children.
Over the past few years, she not only played her part, but the part of a father as well, and the children didn't grow into introverts, despite the absence of a father. Instead, they grew to be generous, adorable, and interesting.
Thus, Sharon had never thought that a father can be important. However, judging by Sadie's reaction now, she knew her daughter was very reliant on her father.
After just spending one night together, the two of them had formed a deep bond. Perhaps it was due to the blood connection?
"Sis, dad just went to work. He wasn't gone." Seeing that Sharon was still in a daze and Sadie was about to shed tears, Seamus immediately comforted, "You see, Andrew's parents also have to go to work every day and only his housemaid could take him to school. It's the same with our dad. He's busy and he has to work to make money. But, at least we have mom to take us to school."
Seamus learned how to speak earlier than Sadie. Although they were the same age, Seamus was much fluent in speaking than Sadie.
Nevertheless, Sadie's face lit up with joy when she heard that. "Then, do you think we'll be able to see dad after school?"
Seamus glanced at Sharon, who immediately replied, "Of course. Now, Sadie, will you be good and go to school first? Mom will pick you up in the evening."
"Alright, mommy. Don't forget to pick us up together with dad." Sadie's face was full of expectation.
Sharon only wanted to solve this current situation, so she hurriedly nodded and coaxed, "Sure. Now, go to your class. The teacher's waiting for you and mom's gonna be late for work."
Seeing the twins go in, Sharon finally let out a sigh of relief and immediately headed to the bus station.
In the villa-
Hazel had stayed here for four years, hoping that one day Stanley would come back. Today, when Stanley suddenly returned, she was completely stunned.
"Hazel, Mr. Jones is back," said Anthony.
Hazel was so glad that she burst into happy tears.
In the next half hour, she talked about what had happened in the past few years while wiping her tears, "Sharon struggles quite a bit these few years, but she never took the children back here. Instead, she cut off from the Jones Family ever since her father got into trouble, and she wouldn't even let Lady Ember visit the twins..."
Speaking of the Madam, Stanley remembered that Anthony said that he had a very good relationship with her. So, he asked, "Where's my mother now?"
Hazel then replied hatefully, "She has been under house arrest and your father has sent someone to watch over her. He doesn't allow Madam to return here."
