Chapter 426
“Adrian, why haven’t Mommy and Nanae to pick us up yet?”
Aileen sat on a small bench, looking bored. She propped her chin in the palms of her hands, and her
legs dangled in the air.
“I don’t know either.”
Adrian sat next to her and imitated what she was doing.
The two kids were slightly mncholy. The other parents who came to the kindergarten to pick up their
children couldn’t help admiring how lovely they were.
It was already getting dark, but Eliana and Nana hadn’te yet, so Ss suggested, “We can’t wait
here forever. How about I ask my driver to send you home first?”
Aileen shook her head. “No, I want to wait for Mommy and Nana.” Then she turned to Adrian and
asked, “Adrian, do you think Mommy is still working?”
Adrian thought of Eliana’s boss, who often picked on her. He had a strong feeling that her boss let her
work overtime again.
“Shall we call Nana and ask?”
The two kids picked up their smartwatch and called Nana.
Nana’s phone immediately rang. But after a long time, still, no one answered.
“What shall we do now?” Aileen asked, looking distressed.
“Since no one ising to pick you up, let me take you home,” Ss offered again.
“Adrian, let’s just listen to Ss. We can send Nana a message to tell her that we left with Ss. He is
our friend, anyway.”
Adrian was still a little hesitant. But when he thought of how tired Eliana and Nana seemed recently, he
finally agreed.
“Okay,” he said with a nod.
“Yay!” Aileen cheered up.
Then she got in Ss’ car with Adrian.
The car had been running on the road for a while when Ss sensed something was wrong.
The car was not going in the direction of the Pierce family’s house at all.
“What is going on? This is not the way to the Pierce family’s house. Where are you taking us?”
The driver replied respectfully, “Sir, I just received a message from your great-grandpa. He said he
missed you and he wanted to see you. I’m taking you to the amusement park first.”

“Damn!”
Ss suddenly felt annoyed.
Earle and Maurice must have fought again.
It was fine with him to see Earle anytime. But today was different because Adrian and Aileen were with
him.
How should he exin to them?
Ss hesitated for a while. Then he turned around and apologized to the twins, “Aileen, Adrian, I’m
sorry. I may not be able to send you home today.”
The twins were shocked. They asked in unison, “Why?”
“My great-grandpa wants to take me to the amusement park, and we are almost there,” Ss exined
helplessly.
“Oh…”
Aileen lowered her head, looking unhappy.
Ss couldn’t bear seeing her like this. “If it’s okay with you… you can go with me,” he suggested.
“Of course, it’s okay with us!” Aileen’s eyes lit up at once. She turned to her brother. “Adrian, let’s go to
the amusement park. Ss had oncee to our house and met our family. We can meet his family
too this time.”
She immediately held Adrian’s arm and acted like a spoiled child, looking at him expectantly.
It had been a long time since theyst went to the amusement park.
“I think you just want to go to the amusement park,” Adrian said, knowing what she was thinking. Then,
he turned to Ss and refused. “We are good. You can ask your driver to drop us here.”
“Adrian!”
Aileen pouted and turned her head away from Adrian.
Since Adrian refused, Ss had no choice but to ask the driver to stop the car.
Then, Adrian and Aileen got out of the car.
“I’m really worried about leaving you two out here alone. You should call your mom and ask her to pick
you up. I’ll wait for her toe over before I go.”
Since Ss insisted, Adrian had to pick up his smartwatch and call Eliana.
But before his call could connect, a convoy of splendid cars suddenly appeared and instantly
surrounded Ss’ car.
“No! My great-pa is here.” The look on Ss’s face changed as he spoke.
Aileen was so scared that he hid behind Adrian and said timidly, “Adrian…”
“Don’t be scared.”
Adrian stretched out his hand to protect Aileen behind him, his eyes staring vigntly ahead.
The door of the Rolls-Royce on the lead opened and a cane stretched out first.
