Chapter 141


    Chapter 141 The phone rang for a while before someone answered.


    “Hi, Uncle Fred. This is Avery Tate. Do you remember me?”


    “Avery Tate? Of course, I remember you! Ourpany wouldn’t have gone under if it weren’t for you!


    How dare you call me? Did you lose all of your money abroad and want to borrow some from me? Let


    me tell you right now that you won’t get a penny from me!”


    Avery remained calm despite the hostilitying from the other end of the line.


    “That’s not why I’m calling. I was just wondering if you have ns to switchpanies.”


    “Switchpanies? Are you a headhunter now?”


    “I’m nning on rebuilding Tate Industries. If possible, I’d like to bring back the old staff. If all of you are


    willing toe back, I can double your current sries.”


    Fred Dover’s jaw dropped!


    “Are you interested?” Avery asked.


    Fred took a deep breath, then said, “Did you hit the jackpot? Do you know how much doubling


    everyone’s sry woulde up to?”


    “I can afford it,” Avery responded.


    “If you’re serious about it, then, of course, I’lle back! I have nothing against money!” Fred said


    without hesitation, then muttered, “Did you actually hit the jackpot?”.


    “Not exactly, but rebuilding Tate Industries isn’t a problem. By the way, I’ll need you to find out who


    bought the oldpany building before. I’d like to buy it back.”


    “Looks like you’re for real! Give me some time… I’ll check it out right away! I’ll let you know once I find


    out.”


    Avery nced at the time, then said, “It’ste. Ask around tomorrow! I’m calling you now because I’m


    happy to be home.”


    No matter how well things were abroad, she had always felt like she had never belonged there.


    The next morning, Avery took La out for a tour of the private preschool in the neighborhood.


    The preschool was designed and built to look like a castle.


    It was only natural for a preschool in a high-end neighborhood to be impressive.


    “Miss Tate, if you’re worried that La might not be used to things here, you’re more than wee to


    send her here for a trial period,” said the school’s director.


    She was especially fond of La because she looked as beautiful as a little princess.


    Avery looked La in the eye before asking for her opinion.


    “Do you want to give it a try, baby girl? It’d be a lot easier on Grandma to take you to school every day


    if you go here.” La’s hands were clenched into tiny fists as she stared at her mother with obsidian


    eyes and asked, “Are you sending Hayden to another school, Mommy? Can I go with him?”


    Avery patted her daughter’s head, then exined gently, “I’m sorry, La. Your brother’s situation is


    different. Once he is ready, I’ll make sure the two of you will never be separated, okay?”


    La’s expression was somber, but she nodded her head anyway.


    After handing her daughter over to the school director’s care, Avery made her way home.


    Laura was washing the dishes in the kitchen while Hayden was ying with his new toys.


    Avery walked over to her son, then said, “Shall we go take a look at a new school, Hayden? We’ ll just


    check it out ande straight home if you don’t like it.”


    Hayden put his toys away and got to his feet.


    He was an obedient child most of the time.


    He would cooperate when it involved things like seeing a new school, however, enrollment was a


    different matter altogether. Avery had tried both public and private schools, but none of them had


    worked. · .


    Even the private tutor that she hired to homeschool him did not work out in the end.


    She did not want to send her son to a special needs school, but she was out of ideas.


    Ang Special Needs Academy was the most elite special needs school in Avonsville.


    The school’s exorbitant fees meant only the top one percent of families in the city could afford to send


    their children there.


    Moreover, the academy’s admissions followed a referral system.


    Avery only managed to get a spot thanks to her connections.

    Their cab arrived in front of Ang Special Needs Academy, and Avery and Hayden walked over to


    register themselves at the front gates.


    Avery turned around once she was done with the registration, and she caught sight of a ck Rolls-


    Roice that was nearing the school’s exit.
