Chapter 71
He turned and walked away with a dour expression on his face.
Sasha dashed over anxiously with the intention of exining to him. However, a loud ‘bang’ sounded out
from inside the vi in the next moment.
What happened?
Her eyes immediately darted to the man.
She saw that his expression had changed, and he briskly marched over to the door. “What are you
doing, Ian? Open the door now!”
Oh my god, it’s Little Ian!
Sasha’s heart started pounding at a breakneck pace as she started to run.
When she reached the second floor, she saw that there was already someone there. A woman was
knocking on the closed door of the nursery and pleading, “Pleasee out, Ian. We won’t take you to
preschool. Please don’t lock yourself in there ande out, okay?”
It was Wendy.
It turned out that the child had started throwing a tantrum from the moment that he heard Wendy say that
he had to go to preschool that day. He pushed her away while she was trying to dress him and violently
mmed the door shut.
What to do now?
Once Sasha understood the situation, she started to panic.
Frankly, she had anticipated something like this happening yesterday.
Which was why she had nned on keeping it a secret from the child till she had a chance to coax him
slowly.
He had formed a deep trauma associated with preschool. She needed to talk things through with him
and convince him to let down his guard in order for him to go back to school.
However, she did not expect to turn upte. Now, everything was ruined.
“Be a good boy, Ian. Open the door. Daddy has something to say to you.”
Sebastian had also arrived at the door. He suppressed the rage within him and coaxed the child in a very
gentle tone.
They were soon disappointed to realize that there was no reply from the other side of the door. The only
sound was a constant banging. Who knew what the child was doing? They were all extremely worried.
Sebastian’s expression grew darker.
The vein in his temple was throbbing. He reached out his hand and was about to forcefully break the
door open.
“No!”
Sasha quickly stopped him.
“You can’t go in like that. He’ll only get even madder. We have to try another method, one that’ll be easier
for him to ept,” she exined as she used her body to block his ess to the door.
Sebastian remembered how he had forced his way inside thest time. The child was even more
provoked and his tantrum became worse.
“Do you know what to do?”
“I’ll try…”
Sasha could not see his expression and had no choice but to utter her reply through gritted teeth.
“Little Ian, this is Ms. Nancy. I’m sorry. We shouldn’t have decided to take you to preschool without
asking you first. I’m sorry.”
She stood outside the door and used her most gentle voice in an attempt to coax the child. She used to
do this for her other two babies as well.

Her heart sank when no reply followed once again. The banging continued.
Sebastian sneered, “Is this the method you were talking about?’
She pretended not to hear him as she pressed her ear to the door and continued trying to talk to the
child. “Little Ian, we can undo the decision. If you don’t want to go, I’lle here every day to y with
you from now on, okay? It’ll be just like yesterday. We’ll go to many fun ces, ces where you’ve
never been. We’ll go see mountains, the sea, and other beautiful sceneries, okay?”
Sebastian’s vein continued to twitch.
Is this woman insane?
When did I undo my decision?
Isn’t she the one who’s been pestering me to send him to preschool? What is she doing
now? Mountains? The sea? Is she having a stroke?
However, once thest word fell from Sasha’s lips, the banging slowly stopped.
Shortly after, the soft pattering of a child’s footsteps grew louder. There was the sound of the lock
utching and the tightly shut door was finally open.
“Are you telling the truth?”
“Of course, it’s the truth. When have I ever lied to you? I’ll go anywhere with you. When I was making this
decision with your Daddyst night, I was already thinking that I’ll go with you to the preschool if you’re
scared. I won’t leave your side for even one second!”
Sasha squatted and pulled the child into her embrace.
She gazed kindly upon him. He was sweating profusely after smashing things in the room. She gently
helped him to wipe the beads of sweat away.
Sebastian was dumbfounded.
The stick and carrot approach?
It looks like she’s not stupid, after all.
Sebastian was stunned. He never expected Sasha to bring up the preschool again after Ian came out.
But, the moment that she said she would apany him anywhere, even to the preschool, his
resentment-filled eyes softened.
