Chapter 1668: Kiki Bryant

Chapter 1668: Kiki Bryant

As Joyce walked into the chapel with Luther, a black extended Bentley

pulled up behind them.

The commotion from the crowd caught Joyce's attention, and she

turned around. The man who got out of the car made her slightly

startled. It was him? The man who she met at the National Hospital last

time, the grandson of an old man named Reuben.

How could he be here?

A tall and elegant woman in her forties, holding a little girl by the hand,

also got out of the car. She walked gracefully towards the dean.

The dean hurriedly went up to greet them, "Welcome, may I ask if this

is Kiki, the new student who is starting school today?"

Kiki, with two braids in her hair, walked lightly towards them and politely

said, "My name is Kiki. Today is my first day of school. Nice to meet

you."

The dean smiled, "Welcome, Mr. Middleton, come and take Kiki inside

with you to meet the other children.”

Mr. Middleton quickly bowed and took Kiki's hand. "Kiki, come with me."

As Kiki followed Mr. Middleton into the building, she turned around and

waved to Reuben, "Bye, Mommy, cousin.”

Reuben also waved back at Kiki, a smile on his lips. He had noticed

Joyce and was surprised and captivated by her. Even though she was

dressed casually in military clothes, she looked incredibly handsome

and had an air of elegance that he couldn't take his eyes off of her. He

felt like he was being drawn towards her and couldn't pull away.

He never expected to meet her here. Obviously, she came today as a

parent to attend the kindergarten open day. According to the

information, she had a son. The handsome man standing next to her

should be Luther.

Reuben narrowed his eyes and his expression became dim. He didn't

know what he was thinking.

Luther noticed that Joyce seemed distracted and asked, "What's

wrong? Is the wind outside bothering you? Let's go inside first."

Joyce shook her head, "No." They walked a few steps inside, away

from the outside.

Joyce leaned closer to Luther and asked, "Who is the little girl's

mother?"

Luther put his arm around her and continued walking. "I met her at a

business conference before. Her name is Torrance, and she belongs to

the Bryant family. The Bryant family is a century-old artistic family in

Khebury, specializing in art galleries, auctions, and other businesses. I

heard that the previous heir of the Bryant family had only two

daughters. The elder daughter, Kempley Bryant, has never made any

news and is almost unknown. The younger daughter, Torrance Bryant,

has never been married and is currently in charge of the entire family. It

is said that she chose the best genes from the gene bank to have a

child, probably Kiki, who is the same age as Anderson. She has talent

in painting, has held art exhibitions, and is also in the gifted class. She

will be Anderson's classmate in the future.”

"Oh," Joyce nodded.

Torrance had never married in her life, so it was no wonder she looked

much older than Joyce, at least in her forties. So Reuben couldn't be

Kiki's father.

Joyce turned her head and saw Reuben looking at her with an unclear

expression. She frowned and turned away without looking back.

The entire open day event was led by the dean, who showed everyone

around the campus, the stables, the sports fields, the music hall, and

the gymnasium. They also showcased the artwork and robot creations

of the kindergarten students.

Finally, the dean led everyone to a public class, which was held in the

gifted class. Joyce and Luther sat in the back row with the other

parents. She noticed that the new girl, Kiki, was seated next to

Anderson.

During the class, Kiki had been trying to talk to Anderson, "Hi, my name

is Kiki. You can call me Kiki. What's your name?"

Anderson couldn't be bothered to look at her and had a cold

expression, not responding to her.

She had introduced herself several times and was getting annoyed.

“Today is my first day at kindergarten. Can you introduce me to your

friends?”

Anderson frowned and sat further away from Kiki. He found her too

talkative. Since they entered the classroom, she had been talking to

him, but he hadn't said a word. She was getting on his nerves.

Although this girl named Kiki was delicate-looking and almost

enchanting, she had a mature feel that was not suitable for her age. He

didn't like this type of girl.

For some reason, his mind suddenly recalled Fair.

He remembered the day Fair came to the CapitalAS kindergarten for

the first time.

"Hi everyone, my name is Fair."

Her voice was too sweet, and he looked up at thesound of it. He took a

glance at her. Her hair was black, her face porcelain white, and she had

big, shiny eyes, a small mouth, and a smile on her lips. She was polite

and well-mannered.

Like Kiki, she had asked him questions and talked to him, but he didn't

find her annoying at the time. He didn't know why.

As he thought about this, his mind wandered. He hadn't found Fair

since then, and he didn't know where she was or if she was in danger.

He shook his head suddenly, wondering what he was thinking. Fair was

working with the bad guys. Why did he worry about her? She was too

good at acting, and he was fooled by her. He had been thinking about

her all this time, and it was irritating.

Joyce sat behind Anderson and watched his impatient back. She

pushed Luther, "Look, your son has no patience for girls and ignores

them. The girl has been talking to him the whole time, but he hasn't

said a word back.”

She glanced at Luther speechlessly.

In this aspect, Anderson and Luther were too similar. They were both

arrogant and had a domineering attitude. Like father, like son.

Luther said coldly, "Anderson has his own way of making friends. We

don't have to worry about it."

Joyce looked at her watch, “The class is over. We should go back. I

have some things to do at the company, and I need to go there."

Luther replied, "Okay. I'll take you there later. I also have something to

do, so I'll be back late tonight. Don't wait for me. Go to bed early.”

Joyce's heart skipped a beat. He was going to be late again, and it

made her feel uneasy.

Yesterday, Felix had looked for him. What about today? What was he

doing?

In the end, she didn't ask. Maybe it was because they had just returned

to Khebury, and there were too many things he needed to deal with.

"Okay, I know," Joyce said and looked around. She couldn't see

Reuben's figure anymore. Maybe he was just driving Ms. Bryant and

Kiki here.

She didn't pay attention to it.

After the public class, the dean expressed his gratitude to everyone.

Luther stood up immediately and took Joyce away.
