“Ann, thank you very much for what you have done.”
“You’re welcome.” A burst of hearty laughter came from the other end of the line. “But Joan is a poser, which is known to all in the circle. If she is replaced, I will be happy.”
Summer smiled. A n n was one of her friends when she studied abroad. The two of them had always been on good terms.
This time, A n n happened to be the person in charge of the show in which Joan would participate. Summer just sent a message to A n n. Then A n n solved it without asking the
reason.
“I haven’t seen Ballard and Abby for a long time. I miss them very much.”
Summer smiled and said, “I’ll invite you to dinner with them next time you come back.”
“Really?” A n n was very excited. “It’s settled then. You can’t stand me up!”
Summer agreed with a smile. After a few more greetings, she hung up the phone.
It was late, and she had to pick up Sanford. But when she arrived at the kindergarten, she found that Alick was also there.
“You are late.”
The man frowned and looked at her. Ten minutes had passed since Sanford’s school
was over.
She gave Alick a disdainful look.
A picky man.
“Mr. Hill, aren’t you busy today? Why are you here to pick up Sanford in person?”
She walked up to Sanford, but the little boy looked a little strange. He gave off an aura. of unapproachable.
“It’s none of your business. I’m here to pick up my son.”
This man was so annoying!
“All right. How can I meddle in your business, Mr. Hill?”

Both she and Alick came here by car. She had wanted to ask Sanford whose car he wanted to take, but before that, the little boy got in her car without hesitation.
Alick, who was ignored aside, looked extremely pale.
After getting in the car, she fastened her seat belt and was about to start the car. But the door suddenly opened. Before she could refuse Alick, he had already sat in the passenger seat.
She sneered. “You have a good luxury car and don’t have to squeeze in my cheap car. Mr. Hill, are you used to it?”
“How do you know I’m not used to it?” Alick fastened the seat belt. He said coldly, “Drive
your
our car. Don’t talk nonsense.”
Summer didn’t say anything more and drove back to the Hill’s house.
On the way, Alick asked Sanford how he had been in kindergarten these days, but the little boy either turned his head aside or refused to answer.
“Sanford, you are very impolite.”
Alick was a little angry. In the past, even if Sanford had a bad temper, he would listen to others.
His good boy had only been with this woman for a few days. Why did he become so impolite?
“You just went to kindergarten for a few days. Have you forgotten the basic etiquette?”
Sanford turned around and stared at Alick coldly.
“Don’t you know what I have learned in kindergarten?”
Alick was stunned by the anger in Sanford’s eyes.
“The kindergarten is full of your subordinates. Why do you pretend to ask me?”
Sanford stared at Alick with his hands clenched tightly.
At that moment, he hated his father!
Nominally, he was sent to kindergarten to study and make more friends. But he was still monitored by his father differently.
No matter what about him in the kindergarten would be reported to Alick, even

including his meals and bathroom times,
It seemed that something was churning in his stomach, and he couldn’t help but spit it
out.
“Are you okay, Sanford? I’ll take you to the hospital now!”
Summer was so anxious that she immediately turned around and sent him to the hospital.
Hearing the doctor say that it was just a stress reaction caused by emotional excitement, she breathed a sigh of relief, turned around, and began to curse Alick.
She said, “Are you a psychopath, Alick? How dare you let people monitor Sanford?
“Do you think you are the emperor and everyone has to live under your control?
“He is your son. Can you respect him?”
Summer just knew about it. She finally knew why Sanford got sick. No one could live a happy life in the shadow of a father who had a strong sense of control.
Bill just arrived at the hospital and saw that his boss was scolded by his ex-wife.
What a rare scene.
“Enough!”
A trace of cruelty appeared in Alick’s deep eyes. He growled and said, “He is my son. You are not qualified to say that.”
“He is also my son!” Summer’s eyes turned red. “If you can’t take good care of him, give him back to me!”
“Summer, you finally speak your mind.” Alick sneered. And then he said, “You just want to take my son away from me, don’t you?
“Don’t even think about it!
“You should have thought of today long ago when you pretended to be dead and left
your son!”
Tears streamed down Summer’s cheeks, but she returned to a calm look.
“Alick, you are still the same as before.” A pale smile appeared on her face. “You can’t stand any criticism from others, and you will never admit your fault.”

She just wanted Alick to give Sanford some personal space, but this man hurt her with such mean words.
Forget it. She had already been used to it.
With a more ferocious look on his face, Alick walked to the door of the ward and was about to push it in when a loud noise came from inside.
“Don’t come in. Get out of here!”
The quarrel between the two just now was heard by Sanford. The bad man not only sent people to monitor him but also bullied his mother. Alick had gone too far!
“I don’t want to see you!”
Seeing that Ballard and Abby appeared in the hospital, Summer was so nervous that her heart beat fast. After confirming that there was no one around, she hurriedly pulled them into the ward.
“Why are you here?”
Ballard hurried to speak, “It’s all because of Abby. She was so worried about Sanford when she knew that he was in the hospital. She said she would come to see him no matter what.”
“Aren’t you worried?” Abby refuted. “You ran faster than me when we went out just now.”
Seeing that the two children cared about Sanford so much, Summer was gratified. But she was still a little worried.
Although Alick had already left the hospital, the consequences would be unimaginable if his people found the two children.
“Mommy, don’t worry. We deliberately avoided the camera on the way here, and no one found us all the way.” Ballard was so considerate. “That bad man won’t find us.”
At first, Sanford was sleeping. He woke up as soon as he heard someone talking. His eyes lit up when he saw Abby and Ballard. The previous unhappiness seemed to be
swept away.
Summer asked Ballard and Abby to stay and chat with Sanford, while she went out to buy food for the children.
“Daddy has gone too far. How can he let his men monitor Sanford?”

Abby was angry. No wonder her mommy was so afraid of him. His daddy was a bad guy!
“He is a tyrant.” Sanford said with a cold face. “He asks everyone to listen to him.”
Ballard said. “How about we teach him a lesson?”
