Chapter 189:

‘With no other choice,’ Cherry sat down in front of Fatty with her cell phone and turned the game back on.

Fatty controlled his hero and rushed back to Cherry’s hero.

The two faced each other in the middle of the arena. Cherry blinked and repeated the same trick. After allowing Fatty to reduce her life points to a minimum, she ‘casually’ killed Fatty’s hero!

Fatty jumped to his feet. “Why am I dead again?”

Cherry blinked her big round eyes. “Yes, I didn’t do anything either. How did I fire the cannon? … Oh, now I get it!”

Fatty, “?”

Cherry said with a serious expression, “It must be because your mother will always be your mother. Sons can’t usurp the throne whenever they want~”

Fatty, “!”

Her words made Roger squint his eyes a little. By the time Fatty hurried to order another round, Raymond had already become very anxious and irritated by his losses.

In a matter of a few minutes, he had lost 2% of the company’s shares and had gone from owning 20% of the stock to 18%?

Raymond was so furious that he pounded the table. “One more time!”

Fatty nodded. He was about to get going when Roger grabbed his arm. Then he looked at Justin and Cherry with a smile and said, “All right, Justin.”

Justin raised his eyebrows. “I’ve already told you there’s no need to up the ante like that when the kids are just fooling around. Look how alarmed and anxious Uncle Raymond got after losing.”

His words made Raymond turn red as a tomato. He pointed at Justin angrily and blurted out, “You, you, you…”.

Justin’s expression turned cold and he said nothing.

Cherry, however, said, “Daddy, I’m so scared! Is Grandpa having a seizure? His fingers are shaking.”

Raymond, “?”

Even Justin couldn’t help but smile. His anger from a moment ago was gone, his voice was low and soft as he replied, “No, Uncle Raymond is just being a sore loser. Forget it, you don’t have to set up the deal anymore Sean.”

Raymond knew Justin was baiting him as soon as he heard what he said.

Either he would suck it up and accept Justin’s words – but he would probably never be able to hold his head high in front of the Hunts after that, since he was the one who suggested the bet, but also the one who was being a sore loser in the end – or he would forfeit the shares.

Raymond had thick skin. Thinking he might redeem his reputation in the future, he was about to speak when the same young, tender voice said, “Why would I be a sore loser Dad? That grandpa was acting really awesome just now, and he even asked you if you dared to bet with him. Is he the one who really doesn’t dare? Besides, can people cancel their bets at will? Dad taught me that I should always keep my word. Otherwise, I’d be no different from a fart~!”

Raymond, “!!!”

His words were too humiliating!

His words would be no different from a fart!!!!!noveldrama

He took several deep breaths. There was no way he was going to part with the money, but the problem was that he would be completely embarrassed…. He couldn’t stand the aggravation.

At that moment, Roger smiled and said, “It’s impossible. It’s only a few billion dollars. Dad, give it to him.”

Raymond looked at Roger and exclaimed, “Roger!”.

Roger’s expression darkened. “Give it to him.”

Finally, Raymond turned to Justin and said indignantly, “Set up the settlement!”

Sean nodded immediately. “Yes sir.”

Seeing him turn and walk away, Raymond said sarcastically, “Your assistant is terrible, Justin. How can he say that when you haven’t even agreed to it?”

Sean ignored him. Instead, his steps outside quickened as he prepared to print the papers.

To be honest, 2% of the shares were actually very important to them!

Justin, however, replied, “We’re a family, Uncle Raymond, how could I have the nerve to disobey your instructions?”

Raymond, “???”

Was there anyone who didn’t know that no one could give orders over the few subordinates under Justin’s command, other than Justin himself?

He was way out of line to say that!!!!!

While Cherry was provoking Raymond and his family at the Hunts’ house, Pete was at school.

During class, a boy raised his hand. “Miss Lynn, my head hurts.”

The teacher hurried over and asked, “What’s the matter?”

The little boy pointed to his head and replied, “My head hurts.”

Miss Lynn had no choice but to let him rest on the side.

After class, everyone surrounded the little boy with the headache.

“Jimmy, are you pretending to have a headache?”.

The boy named Jimmy shook his head. “No, I’m not.”

“But my mother says your mother says you’re just pretending to have a headache so you can act smart!”

Jimmy’s eyes reddened and he stood up. “That’s not true! My head really hurts!”

“You’re just pretending!”

“Yes, you’re just pretending! Your mother said so in the kindergarten parent group chat!”

Jimmy was so angry he clenched his fists.

Mia walked over and said softly, “Don’t talk about Jimmy like that. I’m sure he’s not pretending.”

Mia spoke very softly. Pete found her way of talking very soothing, so she was the only one he was willing to play with in the garden.

Seeing that even she had spoken, Pete looked at Jimmy and texted Nora, “Mommy, I have a classmate who won’t stop having a headache. What’s wrong?”

Meanwhile.

Jimmy’s mom was complaining like crazy in the parent group chat.

Jimmy’s mom: ‘The teacher called me and told me that Jimmy’s head hurts again. Gosh, kids are so crafty these days. It must be because I picked him up and took him home at the time they called last time that he’s learned to lie now.’

Brandon’s mom: “Does he always get a headache? You’d better send him for a checkup’.”

Jimmy’s mom: ‘Is it necessary for a child to go to the doctor for headaches? I think it’s fine. Besides, I’m sure they’ll do a bunch of CT scans and brain MRIs. That will expose the child to radiation.”

Helen’s mom: “Yes, kids today are very smart. They know what’s good for them and they’re always faking it.’

The group chat and Pete’s messages were so loud that Nora couldn’t sleep, so she grabbed her cell phone. When she saw the messages, she sent one to Pete.

Pete made a video call to Nora after seeing her reply. Then, he followed her instructions and gave Jimmy a checkup.

For example, he pressed the top of his head and asked, “Does it hurt here?”.

After asking him a few questions, Nora’s lazy voice came through the phone and said, “I’m hanging up.”

Then she went to the group chat and sent a message.

Nora: “Jimmy’s mom, his situation is not promising. You should take him to the hospital for a spinal tap right away.’

The parents in the group chat, who were chatting about how their kids were always getting into mischief, gasped and everyone stopped talking.

Soon after, Jimmy’s mom showed up.

Jimmy’s mom: ‘¿¿¿¿????

Jimmy’s mom: ‘Are you crazy? The most you need when people have headaches is brain scans. Why would I need to do a spinal tap?’

Nora calmly replied, ‘I’m a doctor.’

Jimmy’s mom: ‘Does being a doctor mean you can tell us to do things? Do we really have a doctor in the group chat? Does Sol de Oro International Kindergarten have parents who are doctors? Do you really lack so much money that you want me to perform medical tests on my behalf?’

The others echoed her:

‘Yes, you are right. Hospitals are still prescribing this and that to patients today. There are parents in this group chat who are so poor that they want to cheat others to make money.’

‘She must be a charlatan, right?’

‘Don’t talk nonsense here just because you have a little knowledge. What’s a spinal tap got to do with the brain?’

Jimmy’s mom: ‘This is a misdiagnosis from a quack! Get out of the group.’
