Chapter 454 Drive Her Away
Veronica held a blood tube, put it into the specimen bag, and sealed it. Then, she put it in the bag and
left the car.
Animaux Private Academy ended at 4.30 pm. She had already inquired. Josh had been promoted to
2nd grade this year, in 2nd grade ss 3, while Drake had been promoted to 4th grade, in 4th grade
ss 1.
The school gate was full of parents queuing to pick up their children. Veronica queued in 2nd grade
ss 3''s line, and soon it was her turn.
The teacher was stunned and asked Veronica politely, "Hello, which ssmate are you the parent of?"
Veronica tried to look dignified and answered, "Hi, I''m Josh Crawford''s mother."
After saying that, Veronica suddenly had a feeling. No matter where she went, she was the most

attractive of the crowd, and everyone was eager to know her.
It felt good to use the identity of Anthony''s wife!
The teacher looked puzzled. She had never seen Josh''s mother. Most of the time, Jack, Bettany, or
Hugh came to pick Josh and Drake up, and asionally Anthony woulde. But their mother never
came. The family rtionship questionnaire also showed that Josh and Drake''s mother was deceased.
Now that the dead person suddenly came back to life, the teacher was a little frightened, but then she
wondered if Veronica was Josh''s stepmother.
After those thoughts shed by, Ms. Swanson looked at Josh. "Josh, your mother is here to pick you
up. Come here to make sure."
Then, she looked at Veronica again. "I''m sorry, Madam. It''s your first time toe here. Please call the
Crawford family. I need to confirm."
It was normal. The teacher could not let a stranger take away the child even if the other party came and
said she was the child''s family.
Josh came out and looked at Veronica strangely. Why is she here?
Before he could speak, Veronica hurriedly said, "Josh,e here! Your father is busy. He asked me to
pick you up."
Then, she smiled and said to the teacher, "His father is in a meeting. It''s not convenient to call him now.
Josh recognizes me."
Ms. Swanson looked at Josh. "Josh, is she your mother?"
As no other members of the Crawford family came to pick up Josh today, Ms. Swanson could not figure
out the situation for a while.
Josh was speechless. The DNA result had note out. He knew Veronica but could not confirm if she
was his mother. But whether it was or not, he would not go with Veronica. To be honest, he did not like
her very much. He wanted a mother. But he would not acknowledge Veronica as his mother.
Josh said coldly, "She''s not my mother."
Ms. Swanson was surprised, and the surrounding gazes became inquiring. Veronica felt the sights
around her, and her expression darkened.
This child is as annoying as my sister. How dare he embarrass me in public? Does he know manners?
After I enter the Crawford family, the first thing I must do is discipline him well! And Lilly too. She called
me a bad doctor when we met for the first time. They''re all wild children! They urgently need my
training!
Veronica took a deep breath to suppress the displeasure in her heart. She bent down to face Josh and
said, "Josh, are you still angry with me? I just don''t let you y with Lilly. It doesn''t matter if Lilly doesn''t
go to kindergarten, but you muste to school."
Josh had a younger sister, and he liked Lilly very much. So Veronica''s words seemed credible.
Before Josh could speak, Veronica leaned close to his ear and whispered, "Josh, you''re right. I''m not
your mother, but I''m your aunt. I know where your mother is, and I brought her blood here. If you want
to save your mother, you muste with me. But I only give you ten seconds to think about it. Do you
know? ke MacNeil broke my handsst time. He said he''ll break my neck if I dare to get close to the
Crawford family again."
Veronica continued, "So today is myst effort. If I can''t convince you, I''ll leave. You''ll never know about
your mother''s situation in your life. After all, I''m afraid of ke MacNeil."
After finishing speaking, she straightened up helplessly. "I''ll do what I promised, okay?"
Josh was full of shock. Aunt? Mommy?
He knew about ke wrung Veronica''s hand off. Rescue my mother? Where is my mother now?
For some reason, Josh felt inexplicably uneasy. There was a glint of victory in Veronica''s eyes.
Although Veronica did not figure out who broke her spell, she knew she had fifteen minutes for a
chance. In other words, she was safe within fifteen minutes. She even shortened the time to five
minutes.
Veronica looked at her watch. She had a minute left. Enough! I''ve persuaded Josh.
Sure enough, she heard Josh say, "She''s my mother!"
Josh gripped the strap of his school bag and walked forward. Veronica smiled, took Josh''s hand, and
led him outside.
Just as Josh followed Veronica out, 4th grade ss 1''s children came out. There was a priority order
for pick-up and drop-off sses after school. Drake''s ss was behind Josh''s.
Drake did not see Josh, but Ivan, who was in Drake''s ss, keenly saw Josh''s back.
He saw Josh leaving with a strange woman with both hands tightly clutching the straps. It looked
abnormal.
Without even thinking about it, Ivan grabbed Josh''s cor as soon as he passed the security fence and
pulled Josh back.
Josh felt strangled, and his tongue stuck out. He could not help but stare back. "What are you doing!"
Ivan''s expression was cold and expressionless. "Ask your brother."
Drake finally heard something was wrong. He looked at Josh and then at Veronica.
Drake frowned and asked Josh, "Where are you going with this woman?"
Just when Veronica was about to seed, Josh was pulled back, and she felt annoyed. She grabbed
Josh''s hand even harder and did not let him go.
Looking at Drake''s teacher, Veronica immediately repeated the old trick. "Hi, I''m Drake''s mother. I''ll pick
up the children today. Their father is in a meeting, and their grandmother fell ill."
Ms. Wace nced at Veronica and asked Drake, "Is she your mother?"
Drake answered firmly, "No."
Ms. Wace turned and said to the security guard, "Security! Drive her away!"
Veronica became gloomy.
