Maeve lowered the phone so that Theodore could reach it.


    "Blue Star Kindergarten?" Quinton replied in surprise. Tve never heard of such a kindergarten in Kleymond. Is it very famous?


    "However, there is one thing I know for sure: no school can beat us regarding recognition."


    As the principal of Blue Star Kindergarten heard this, his face changed from blushing embarrassment to pale indignation.


    "Oh." Theodore drawled. "But their principal just said that they don''t ept students from humble families. They''re worried about their ranking. Does your school do the same?" Maeve looked at his mischievous look and held back herughter.


    Quinton disagreed. Then he''s really snobbish andcks an eye for talents. Boy, if youe to my school, I guarantee there won''t be such contemptible discrimination."


    The principal of Blue Star Kindergarten could only swallow the insult and remained silent.


    Maeve smiled and said, "Since Mr. Mayer is so open-minded, I believe your school will provide a healthy and inclusive environment. Then see youter."


    Theodore stuck out his tongue. "Mommy, you hung up too quickly. He meant that that was not humiliating for the principal of Blue Star Kindergarten.


    Usually, Theodore would pay back double whoever had offended him once he had the chance.


    Maeve touched the tip of his nose and then looked at the principal, whose face was pale


    "M-Ms. Reese, I think we can talk about this again." The principal tried to salvage the situation.Text ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org.


    "I don''t think that''s necessary, Maeve said lightly. "Your school is too good for us. We''re not worthy of it. Thank you for the rejection. I''m sending my son to Iton now."


    Thest sentence hurt the principal so badly that his face contorted.


    Maeve turned around and left his office with Theodore for Blue Star Kindergarten.


    The kindergarten tour took less than two hours, and then theypleted all the procedures. Theodore could officially start school tomorrow.


    After they left, the teacher beside Quinton asked, "Mr. Mayer, is there anything special about the mother and son? Many students heree from better families, but I''ve never seen you treat them specially." on their


    Quinton smiled and replied, "However, none of them can win the favor of the royal family of Erancia and outstanding ability to raise the status of women in Estan. Now you see why Ms. Reese is different, not to mention her son." The teacher looked curious. "He''s quite well-behaved, but is there anything special about him?"


    "He''s a Mensa member, Quinton said meaningfully. "And he go into Mensast year. He''s now only four years old." The teacher immediately gasped in shock. "Wow! The high-IQ society? He''s actually a prodigy"


    The previous youngest member of Mensa was only six years old and Theodore was qualified when he was three. Quinton nodded. "Our kindergarten has seen a prodigy, but only a few have fared well. I just don''t know if this boy will


    be a sad story


    Back at the hotel, the receptionist told Maeve that three people hade to look for her, and one was still waiting for her in the lobby.


    Maeve nced into the lobby and thought it was Lynn again. Unexpectedly, she saw Bonnie.


    They had not seen each other for a long time but it didn''t make them feel any estranged. They hugged each other and jumped happily.


    "Bonnie, how did you know I was here?" Maeve asked.


    Bonnie was a little unhappy. You reminded me. Are we really best friends? You didn''t tell me the moment you returned to the country. I found out from my cousin."


    Maeve quicklyforted her. "I just wanted to look for you after I settled down. It''s my fault. Don''t be mad at me."


    "Mommy." Theodore poked his head out from behind and asked sweetly, "Is she the pretty godmother you always talk


    about?"


    Bonnie wanted to pretend to be sad, but his sweet words immediately delighted her.


    "Maeve, where did you steal the boy?" Bonnie looked at him with a curious expression


    Upon hearing this, Theodore corrected her seriously, "Bonnie, Mom gave birth to me after ten months of pregnancy. She didn''t steal me."


    Bonnie found him so adorable that she pinched his chubby face "Alright, she brought you to the world. My apologies.


    "It''s okay. I forgive you because you''re so pretty," he replied..


    Bonnie''s heart melted. She turned to ask Maeve, "Maeve, did the doctor give you any miracle drug during pregnancy? You have such a sweet and cute son,"


    Maeve felt annoyed and amused. "I suppose so. This guy praises everyone he sees. I can''t stop him.


    "That''s good. He''s very generous and better than most kids I''ve met. Bonnie liked him very much. "By the way, what''s his


    name?"


    "Bonnie, my name is Theodore, and you can call me Theo. I''m four years old. I love drinking milk and ying video games. You can y with me when you''re free. I can carry you," he replied. Bonnie''s eyes lit up and she could not help but hug Theodore. "Great. I like to y video games too. That''s a deal!" she


    eximed.


    "That''s a deal. Theodore said.


    Maeve looked at them hugging each other and shook her head. Let''s go up and talk. I grabbed some groceries. Let''s make a feast to celebrate our reunion tonight."


    "Wonderful!" Bonnie nodded repeatedly.


    When they reached the penthouse suite, Bonnie looked surprised again. "Maeve, you made a fortune overseas for the past few years? You''re willing to pay for the presidential suite."


    She still remembered that to save money, Maeve had never been picky about what ce to rent. Maeve would go for the cheapest as long as it was habitable.


    П


    When Maeve saw Theodore actively carrying the bags of groceries to the kitchen, her eyes glinted with tenderness. "Back then, I was alone and it didn''t matter where I lived. But now I have Theo" She always wanted to give him the best. Bonnie understood her motherly love. "If I had such a cute baby, I might even do something dramatic. In less than an hour. Bonnie had been charmed by Theodore.


    The three of them sat by the table and enjoyed a warm and lively feast. After dinner, Theodore poured milk for himself and returned to his room, leaving space for Maeve and Bonnie.


    They sat side by side in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, looking at the street view outside and talking about the past.


    Bonnie could not help but ask curiously, "Maeve, Theo is Byron''s child, right?"


    Maeve nodded, then shook her head. Theo is my child.


    Bonnie hugged her in understanding. There are many men out there. I''ll find you better ones. Forget him."


    She sounded like a matchmaker, which amused Maeve. "Let''s talk about menter. There''s something that I need you to help me find," Maeve said. "What is it?" Bonnie asked
