Early the next morning, Natalie woke up unusually early today. Recently, she had been too busy to send her son to kindergarten. Every day, Trevon would send and pick him up.
Trevon was very dedicated to taking care of the children and didn't rely on drivers or bodyguards to pick his son up.
But Jim needed to be on standby.
Since Natalie was free today, she was prepared to send her son off.
The man by the wardrobe carefully tidied up his suit. After putting it on, he even looked at himself in the mirror. The small sequins embedded in his collar flickered under the light, as dazzling as him.
Trevon looked at himself in the mirror for a few minutes. Perhaps satisfied, he finally opened the drawer and chose a dark blue tie.
When Natalie saw this, she quickly walked over to help. Due to the difference in their heights, she stood on her tiptoes slightly. Trevon held her waist to support her so that she could save her strength. She helped him tie his tie while he lowered his head to kiss the corner of her mouth.
The lipstick stained his lips, and they glowed slightly.
"Daddy, Mommy." The twins were still asleep. They had had too much fun last night and could not get up in the morning. Jasper had already put on his school uniform and carried his bag.
Natalie pretended that nothing had happened and retracted her toes. Jasper was used to his parents' intimate behavior and pretended not to see it.
"I'll drive you today. I don't have a meeting today, and I can go to work later."
For Jasper, anyone could take him to kindergarten. "Yeah, that's fine."
"Let's go together. It's rare that we both have time today. Let's send him together."
Jasper carried his bag and walked out. He reminded. "There's only 30 minutes left." If his parents dawdled any longer, he would probably be late.
Trevon smiled slightly. "We won't let you be late. Don't worry."
Jasper remained silent.
Natalie was afraid that Jasper would be late, so she took some breakfast with her. Rachel even carefully prepared a smoothie. "Take this. Jasper has already eaten."
Natalie took the smoothie from Rachel and thanked her. "Thank you, Mrs. Rachel."
Rachel smiled. "Be careful on the way."
Trevon nodded. "Okay."
Natalie helped to open the door of the backseat with breakfast. Jasper got in. She went around the back of the car and opened the passenger door. She got in and fastened her seatbelt. She stuffed a piece of pizza into the mouth of Trevon on the driver's seat.
Trevon happily ate the breakfast fed by his wife. He started the car and drove in the direction of the kindergarten. He chewed a few times and swallowed the food in his mouth. He glanced at the rearview mirror and said to his son, who was sitting quietly in the back seat, "Take care of Ruby at school."
Jasper glanced at his father's dark hair and replied, "No one bullied her."
Hearing his son's words, Trevon continued to eat the breakfast fed by his wife and stopped talking.
Twenty minutes later, the car stopped in the parking lot of the kindergarten. The couple had already finished their breakfast and got out of the car together. Jasper opened the door to the backseat and got out of the car on his calves. He waved at his parents and said, "Goodbye, Daddy and Mommy."
Natalie felt inexplicably that her son had grown up, and she no longer needed to worry about him. With mixed emotions, she waved. "Goodbye, call me if you need anything."
Jasper nodded. "Yeah."
The two of them stood side by side, watching as their son entered the school gate. Ella greeted Jasper at the entrance, smiling and nodding at Trevon and Natalie.
After seeing their son enter, the two of them returned to the car hand in hand. As soon as they got into the car, Natalie started talking, "I realized that Jasper has grown up a lot, not only in terms of height but also in terms of thinking. He's becoming less and less talkative."
Trevon's gaze was fixed ahead as the car drove toward the Roberts family. He said indifferently, "There's nothing wrong with being quiet. It's easy to be disliked like the talkative Hackett."
Natalie smiled and did not continue the topic. Regardless, Trevon felt that his children were the best, no matter what.
There was always a convincing reason to defend the children. Natalie even suspected that Trevon used to be in the debate group and was very good at defending himself.
Trevon always used Hackett as an example, but it was just talk. If something happened, Natalie thought, he would definitely be the first to rush in and protect the not-so-skilled Hackett.
After saying that, Natalie realized that the car was not driving toward the base or the company. She turned around and asked, "Are we going to the Roberts family? Didn't you say we were going tonight?"
Didn't Trevon say that he didn't want to see the tired Frank?
Trevon was calm. "There's nothing wrong with seeing him. It's quite special."
Frank would probably be angered to death if hearing this.
Natalie was speechless at the fickle man.
The car was still moving at a steady speed in the direction of the Roberts family. Natalie thought of something. "Ava and Frank are both sleeping at this time. Perhaps the children are still asleep. Why do you plan to go to the Roberts family? Are you an alarm clock?"
Natalie knew what he was thinking. He just wanted to provoke Frank and tease him. He was so childish.
Seeing that Trevon still did not change direction, she continued, neither angry nor anxious. "The Roberts family doesn't lack money to afford an alarm clock. You don't have to wake them up personally. Be kind and send me to the base. We'll bring the three children with us tonight."
Under Natalie's persuasion, Trevon turned the steering wheel with one hand and smiled slightly. His magnetic voice sounded in the enclosed car. "I'll listen to you."
Hearing this, Natalie smiled and leaned back in her chair. She took out her phone and sent a message to her aunt, Emma.
At the same time, in the Roberts' Villa, Emma received a message from Natalie informing her that she would bring her three children over for dinner tonight.
After reading the message, Emma said to Grace, who was sitting opposite her, "Natalie said to come over for dinner tonight. Why don't you get Rose also to come over for a gathering tonight?"
Recently, Daniel had taken on Frank's job. He followed William to the company every day, nine to five.
At this moment, only Grace and Emma were in the living room. Natalie was right. The children were still sleeping, and so were Frank and Ava.
Hearing that, Grace agreed. "Alright, I'll go out now." Since the two children were going to wake up later, Emma did not follow her out.
Grace's mobility had always been okay. After saying that, she called her daughter, who was working in the hospital. At this time, her daughter was not at work yet. The phone rang a few times before it was picked up. Rose's happy voice overflowed from the receiver. "Grace, what instructions do you have? I'm still eating. Don't worry. I just arrived at the entrance of the hospital. I'm walking now. I'll be in the hall in one minute."
