After getting out of the car, Willow walked into her neighborhood without turning back.
Xavier watched her leave. He then glanced at the fifty dollars on the seat sadly.
In the end, there was nothing he could do to salvage the situation. He drove away.
Halfway through her walk, Willow turned around and saw Xavier leaving. Only then did she sigh in relief.
She glanced at her watch. The children were done for the day at the kindergarten.
Willow walked out and headed to the kindergarten to pick them up.
On one hand, she gave Xavier money for the ride because she did not want to owe him anything. On the other hand, she did not want Xavier to send her home again.
The timing was just right today. The children had just finished kindergarten for the day and had not come out yet.
What about next time?
What if the children had already left kindergarten and walked to the neighborhood entrance? If they saw Xavier sending Willow home, they would definitely call her Mommy out of excitement.
When that happened, the secret that they were her children would be exposed.
Xavier belonged to the Hughes family, and he was Jasper's nephew.
If he found out about this, Jasper would also find out.
It was too dangerous.
That was why she needed to prevent Xavier from sending her home.
Willow arrived in front of the kindergarten. A teacher was leading a group of children out of the entrance. Among them, four were Willow's children. They wobbled from side to side like little penguins. It was absolutely adorable.
"Mommy!"
"Mommy!"
"Mommy!"
