The Apple of My Eye
Chapter 859 Enrollment

Sue was seething. She couldn't believe the expectation that she felt in her heart when Peggy asked Anthony how he felt about her. She laughed at herself how foolish she was to have such a ridiculous assumption.

Sue knew very well that it was impossible for Anthony to be with her. However, when Peggy asked the question, Sue's heart beat fast, and she felt that her heart was about to jump out of her chest. Peggy frowned slightly. She couldn't tell why Anthony answered her that way. She thought he had a thing for Sue and would give her a positive answer. Anthony didn't know why he said that. He thought, probably because he didn't want Sue to hold certain expectations before he made his decision. Anthony smiled and said to Peggy, "Aunt Peggy, please rest assured. I will always be her friend. No matter what happens to Sue, I will be there to help her." Peggy first looked at Anthony and then at Sue feeling even more confused.

Peggy didn't believe that Anthony and Sue could not be together, so she asked Anthony in front of her, "Is it... really that impossible?"

"Aunt Peggy," Anthony smiled and continued, "as I said, nobody knows what will happen in the future, but... at least for now, it's not possible."

After listening to their conversation, Sue felt very disappointed inside. She then looked at Peggy and said, "Did you hear that? You flatter yourself too much." Sue glanced at Anthony who was in front of her and said, "I'm busy, I have to go now. Would you like to leave now?"

"Yeah, sure, I'll come with you," Anthony said in a hurry. The reason why he came today was to help Sue but he found that he didn't play a very positive role. Anthony looked at Peggy beside him and said, "Aunt Peggy, I'm leaving now. I'll see you next time."

"All right," Peggy said nodding awkwardly and escorted him out.

After saying goodbye, Anthony quickly caught up with Sue and said, "You're walking so fast. Wait up."

Sue didn't say a word to Anthony. When the elevator door opened, she walked in alone and Anthony followed.

In the elevator, Anthony looked at Sue beside him and said, "Sue, what I said just now..."

"I know." Sue smiled bitterly and continued, "Thank you for letting me know how you feel. You can rest assured that I will never bother you again."

"No, you don't understand," Anthony said in a hurry. "Please let me explain. Actually, I don't know how I feel in my heart, so I just said that because..." Sue interrupted him, "Anthony, please stop! I hope that's the end. I wish I never met you. I'm really tired of it. Please don't bother me any more." "Bother you?" Anthony asked stunned. "Do you think I'm bothering you?"

"Don't you?" Sue stared at Anthony and said, "I was working, but my family called me to come back because of you and now I have to go back to the company and finish my work. Does that qualify as being bothered by you?"

"You..." With a wry smile, Anthony said, "It seems that I'm really humiliating myself. I shouldn't have gone to your house. I shouldn't have had the idea of trying to help you."

"Staying away from me is the greatest help that you could give." As soon as she finished the elevator door opened and Sue stepped out without hesitation.

Sue heard Anthony's voice coming from behind. "Sue, I will remember what you said and I will never care about you again. I brought this shame upon myself, damn it,"

said Anthony. Sue's attitude hurt Anthony deeply, which made him angry and depressed.

It was Shirley's and Clark's first day of school. Charles asked for a day off and came to the school with Sheryl to sign up for the children.

Every member of the family was very good-looking, which naturally attracted many people's attention. Even the head teacher couldn't help staring at them while they were signing up.

"Hi, Mr. Lu." A woman's voice came from behind. Sheryl looked around and found a beautiful girl appeared in front of them.

"Director He, Nice to meet you." Charles turned and politely greeted the girl.

Sheryl was shocked by the way Charles addressed the girl, who was just about her age and was already the head of the kindergarten.

"I just heard that you took the children to sign up. I came to see if there's anything I can do to help you," Pamela said with a smile.

"Thank you very much, but I have already enrolled the children and later the children will be in your care," Charles said with a slight smile.

"Of course, it's my duty," Pamela said and laughed. Sheryl felt that Pamela had a special affinity, which made people want to be close. This affinity was probably due to Pamela's engagement in early childhood education. In Sheryl's impression, people engaged in early childhood education were always friendly and amicable.

"I'm afraid Clark won't stay here long. I've arranged an intelligence test for him. If it goes well, he will skip a grade," Pamela said.

"No, I don't think it's a good idea." Sheryl frowned slightly and continued, "Clark is only three years old. I don't know what kind of person Clark will be when he grows up, but for now I think we should give him a normal happy childhood. Let's wait until he is older for an intelligence test. I don't want him to compete with others at such a young age. I'm afraid..."

"I'm sorry, who is this lady?" Pamela didn't know Sheryl, so she asked Charles curiously.

"This is Clark's mother," Charles answered. Then he frowned and asked Sheryl, "Sher, I know you love Clark, but you know he's different from other children."

"I know what you mean." Sheryl gave a wry smile and said, "Please think carefully, Clark is still so young, but you let him study with children who are much older than him, I am really afraid for him..."

"I have an idea," Pamela said with a smile. After having both of their attention, she continued, "We can still conduct the intelligence test as originally planned. But when the results come out, we can let Clark decide what he wants to do, whether to skip a grade or stay here."

"Do you think that's a good idea?" Charles looked at Clark with a slight frown and then said, "How can he make such an important decision when he is so young?"

"Didn't you just say that he's different from other children?" Sheryl couldn't help laughing and said, "I think Director He's suggestion is good, so let Clark decide for himself."

"All right then." Charles nodded helplessly.

Pamela said with a smile, "I still have something to deal with, so I have to go now. It was nice to have met you Sheryl. Bye Charles."

"All right. Bye." Charles nodded slightly and watched Pamela walk away. Then he left with Sheryl and the children.
