Soon, Maddox got someone to help Beanie with the admission procedure. As soon as it was done, he immediately sent Beanie to school.

On the first day, Minerva went with Beanie and talked to the teachers.

Because of Beanie's looks, he was particularly popular in the school.

In fact, Beanie had gone to school before, but this was a different school.

The teachers were all new.

Therefore, they needed to introduce themselves to each other.

After everyone got to know each other, Beanie was left in school. Before Minerva left, the teacher arranged for Beanie to sit next to a lovely girl.

The girl had two cute braids and was sitting upright. Her skin was fair and tender, and her eyes were especially clear, like a clear stream.

She wore a floral dress and a pair of pink snappy shoes and looked very cute.

After Beanie sat with her, the teacher couldn't help sighing.

"These two children are too good-looking. It's pleasing to see them sitting together."

When the teacher beside heard this, he also nodded in agreement, "Yeah, the two of you will sit together from now on. Bruno, this is Lanica Jules, your deskmate. Everyone here calls her Laney. You two have to get along with each other, alright?"

Beanie looked at his deskmate. The girl was timid. After listening to the teacher's words, she did not talk to Beanie but sneaked a peek at him. When she noticed her was looking at her, she quickly looked aside, as if nothing had happened.

"Okay, then you'll be good deskmates from now on."

After the teacher left, classes began, and one class ended.

Beanie learned that Lanica was a silent girl. She was serious during lessons. She sat upright the entire time, and her gaze never left the teacher.

When the class was over, Beanie was exhausted from all the sitting. Just when he was about to laid on the table to rest after a stretch, several children ran over.

"Let's see what Lanica brought to school today."

"Lanica, did you bring me food today?"

Before Lanica could answer, The children rushed up and pushed her away to rummage through her school bag and dropped her hairpin and notebook on the ground. "Ah, this is beautiful... Give it to me, will you?"

"I want this!"

Lanica didn't dare to refuse, and her gaze was sheepish. When everybody was asking her, a careful and courting smile appeared on her lips as she said, "O-Okay."

They took all the things from Lancia's bag and left excitedly. Lanica watched as the other children held hands. She moved her lips, wanting to say something, but didn't dare to at the end. She only silently lowered her eyes and packed up the things that had been left on the ground.

Beanie watched Lanica clean the dirt off her school bag and put it under her desk as he laid on the table with his head tilted the entire time.

Probably noticing Beanie's eyes, Lanica looked over. She was so scared that she looked away after their eyes met.

Beanie did not speak but kept looking at her curiously.

This girl was so strange. Her belongings had been stolen, but she still looked as if nothing had happened.

Lanica noticed that her new

deskmate was still looking at her At first, she didn't dare to face him, but after some time, her new deskmate didn't seem to have any reaction, so she slowly moved her head back.

"You... Do you want to play with me?"

Beanie was stumped for a split second. "Ah?"

Lanica thought he didn't want to, so her face immediately turned red. She said in a panic, "Nothing, I was just asking."

After that, she hurriedly stood up and ran away. Beanie couldn't register what was going on at all.

His new deskmate was strange, and everyone there was boring; they even stole other people's belongings. But it wasn't exactly stealing; they had asked her permission before taking them away. Beanie wondered when he could finally go home; he really wanted to go back to his mommy.

In the past two days, Vera was on edge the entire time, and she wasn't in any state of mind to open her restaurant. She even made several mistakes in the kitchen. In the end,

Mabie dragged her out for a pep talk

UMS

"What's going on with you lately? Why do you keep making mistakes?"

Vera was so ashamed that she lowered her head and said, "Mom, I'm fine. I'm just a little distracted."

"You're fine? You've never made these kinds of mistakes before. Now that you have, you made several at one go, and you're telling me you're fine? Do you think I'll believe your words?" When Vera heard this, she bit her lower lip and said with a conflicted expression, "But I'm really fine. I'm just distracted."

"Tell me the truth, did something happen between you and Quill?" Mabie asked.

Vera was shocked. "Mom! Can you not jinx us? We're fine!"

"If you two are fine, then why are you so absentminded?"

Vera didn't want to talk about it. The truth was, her period was near, but it still hadn't started, so Vera was nervous and excited.

Her period was not fixed. Sometimes it would be early, and sometimes it would be late. So even though it was late for a couple of days, she still didn't dare to suspect a thing. However, because of what they did during their trip, Vera was truly worried she was pregnant.

So this had been distracting her from her work in the past two days.

"I'm just a little unwell. I-1 want to go home and rest, Mom."

Seeing that she looked dispirited, Mabie went to touch her forehead after some thought. "Are you sick? Do you want me to take you to the hospital?"

"No, no!" Vera refused, "I can go to hospital myself!"

After that, Vera took off her apron and left with her phone in her hand.

"This child... Will she be fine going to the hospital alone?" Mabie asked.

After Vera left the pasta restaurant, she walked aimlessly on the street. She didn't know how long she had walked when she suddenly saw a drug store. Then Vera walked in, out of the blue.

There were not many people in the

drug store. She acted normally whenever she came to buy things,

but for some reason, Vera was acting strange that day, as if she had a guilty conscience. She was

secretive and careful; for fear of being discovered when she made a purchase.
