The Divorced Billionaire Heiress

Chapter 2288 We Skipped School

Clayton seemed to have spent half of his life struggling helplessly and struggling to control his emotions.

Nicole stayed in the office for a while. After a meeting, she received a call from Chatty.

She was a little surprised.

"Chatty?"

'Yes, Mommy! Fischer and I came out of school and got lost! Where are we going?"

Nicole's heart skipped a beat.

"Are classes over? Why didn't you tell US?"

She quickly checked her phone, but there was no notice from the teacher.

Chatty said in a baby voice, "No... We skipped school. Do you know what that means?"

Nicole paused. She stopped moving and took a deep breath.

'Yes, now I understand!"

Chatty even emphasized, "skip school". She knew too much for a child her age.

Nicole comforted Chatty and asked her patiently, "So, where are you now? When did you skip school? And why did you

escape from school?"

Chatty was not aware that Nicole was about to lose her temper.

The little girl proudly showed off.

"I don't want to sit in class anymore. I want to go home to see Baby Kenji! Fischer and I came out together. He's such an

idiot! He can't remember the way home. Mommy, can you come and pick US up?"

Nicole took a deep breath and stood up with her phone.

"Okay, don’t go anywhere! Mommy will go over now. Don't run around!"

Fortunately, Nicole could see the locations of Chatty's and Fischer's smart watches from her phone, so she was not

worried about losing them.

However, it was really dangerous for two children to be outside without chaperones.

Nicole hurried out, and Logan looked at her in surprise.

"President, where are you going?"

"Chatty skipped school with Fischer, so I'll pick them up. Call me if there's anything urgent."

"Shall I go with you?”

"No need,” Nicole said as she walked in the direction of the elevator.

Logan said, 'Then let Hamilton go with you. He can help you with the kids."

Nicole hesitated for a few seconds before she nodded.

"Okay. Ask him to go downstairs and wait for me."

"Sure."

Nicole turned on the phone and looked at their GPS.

Sure enough, she saw two little red dots less than 800 meters away from the school.

Although it was less than 800 meters, it was far enough for them.

She breathed a sigh of relief and was just about to call the school, but the school called her first.

"Ms. Stanton? I’m really sorry. Liliana Sloan and Fischer Malone are missing. It's our negligence for losing the kids.

We're searching for them now."

Nicole could hear the teacher's anxiousness. She paused and quickly said," Don't worry, they are just less than 800

meters west of the school gate. Chatty and Fischer ran out by themselves. You can take her in first. I'll be right

there."

"Alright, Ms. Stanton."

After hanging up the phone, Nicole breathed a sigh of relief.

She went to the underground parking to take the car, then she picked Hamilton up from the entrance.

As soon as Hamilton got into the car, he asked, "President, have you found the kids? I can ask a friend to help look

forthem."

'Yeah, I found them."

Nicole concentrated on driving, and Hamilton did not disturb her again.

Although she looked calm, she was actually flustered.

Nicole did not expect Chatty to be so bold as to run out of school. Chatty just started kindergarten, but she had

already begun to skip school.

She felt that she did not pay enough attention to the kids and neglected them too much.

She blamed herself.

When they arrived at school, Nicole parked the car at the entrance.

Nicole got out of the car and ran over.

She saw Chatty and Fischer sitting obediently on a small stool. They pouted and looked upset, but they dared not

say anything.

The teacher lectured them in a gentle voice, but the two children obviously did not take her seriously.

Nicole knocked on the door and walked in.

Chatty and Fischer's eyes lit up when they saw Nicole.

"Mommy..."

Nicole smiled and looked at the teacher.

"I’m sorry that they troubled the school."

"Don’t worry, Ms. Stanton. This is our duty. We didn't notice that the children ran out. We checked the surveillance

footage and noticed a hole in the east wall from the construction last time. The children crawled out from there,

but thankfully, nothing happened because they got lost and only circled the school compound."

The corners of Nicole's mouth twitched. "Right."

Hamilton could not help but laugh.

"A day trip around the school gate?”

Nicole rolled her eyes at him, and Hamilton immediately stopped smiling.

The teacher looked at her guiltily. "I'm sorry, the principal will be here soon. He will apologize to you in person. We

will also send someone to fill out that hole immediately. The school will conduct a thorough check for any other

loopholes. Sorry to make you worry.”

Nicole was very satisfied with the school's attitude in handling this incident, so she did not pursue their responsibility.

What was more, no one thought that such a young child would dare to make trouble.

"It’s not necessary for the principal to come. I’ll lecture the children later. I’ll take them home first and get someone

to pick Levi up after school."

The teacher nodded quickly. "Levi is very well-behaved."

Nicole nodded and looked at Chatty and Fischer.

"Come on, let's go.”

Chatty looked aggrieved and touched her belly.

"Mommy, I'm hungry!"

Fischer also touched his belly.

"Me too!"

The two cute troublemakers turned their heads and looked at Nicole with puppy dog eyes.

Nicole did not even know how to start lecturing them.

She turned around and left.

Chatty and Fischer hurriedly followed.

Hamilton smiled and followed behind as he laughed.

The two children consciously sat in the back seat while Hamilton sat in the passenger seat.

Nicole drove without saying a word.

Chatty happily hummed a song, but she was tone-deaf.

Even so, Fischer applauded excitedly.

Hamilton was speechless and thought, 'He's really something!'

Chatty, who suddenly remembered her purpose for skipping school, asked," Mommy, shall we go see Baby Kenji?"

"Aren't you hungry? Let’s eat first,” Nicole replied.

Chatty was deliberating whether filling her stomach or visiting her cousin was more important when Fischer said, "Let’s

eat first. Hospital food is gross."

"Okay then."

Nicole went to a Chinese restaurant near the office because Chatty and Fischer liked the steamed egg with shrimp from

there.

However, it just so happened that this restaurant was close to the French restaurant.

Nicole ordered food for them. The children were full after a few bites and could no longer sit still. They wanted to go down

and play with the other children.

Nicole did not stop them.

Coincidentally, her phone rang. It was a call from Logan.

She picked it up and glanced at Hamilton.

"Watch them for me. I'll take them to the hospital in a while."

Hamilton also finished eating. He gestured "okay" and followed the children.

Chatty and Fischer were playing at the entrance.

Just then, a handsome little boy dressed in a suit who was about Fischer's height came out of the French restaurant.

He looked at Chatty, went over, smiled at her, and wanted to hold her hand.

Chatty shrugged him off and ran toward the French restaurant.

"Come on, Fischer! There are little fishies here!"
