Upon Nellie's words, Alice's face, which finally regained a little color, rapidly lost all shades as she turned paler than the wall.
The corridors were in pin-drop silence.
At that moment, the testing room door opened.
Neil came walking out as he wore his clothes.
The first person he saw was the teary-eyed Alice, and he unconsciously broke out into a smirk. The crazy lady did not have much range in her acting: they merely consisted of tears falling, crying, and yelling.
At that moment, she had just returned to Joshua, and h e still liked her, so her tears were still useful. Once Joshua was sick of her, not only would her tears have no effect on him, but Joshua would be also annoyed at it.
Tsk.
They were adults, yet they still did not understand that simple fact. Using tears on any matter would render it useless sooner or later!
Neil mused to himself as he walked to Nellie’s side. He sat on the bench and held her sister's hand. "Why did Ms. Alice cry?"
Joshua furrowed his brows. Before he could say anything, Nellie opened her mouth.
"She said that she's in a bad mood because Daddy always looks for Mommy. That's why she's taking it out on us." Nellie immediately continued, "Daddy said just now that she doesn't have to look after us for the time being. He let us choose our own Nanny, so I picked our Mommy, Luna. What do you think?" 1
Upon Nellie’s words, Neil understood why the two adults had ugly expressions on their faces.
"I think this suggestion is just so-so."
Nellie's eyes widened. “Don't you want to live with Mommy?"
