Chapter 146 Something Had Gone Wrong (Part Two) (1/2)

Selina patted Cherry on her shoulder, and with concern in her voice, said, ”Don't exhaust yourself! Finish what you have now, and I'll go look for the document in my office; then, we can go downstairs together, okay?”

”Okay, ” said Cherry.

Cherry and Selina then went downstairs to the underground parking lot and said goodbye to each other.

While Cherry was driving her car on her way back home, she received a call from Elsa.

”Hello, mother! What's up?” answered Cherry.

”Cherry, are you off duty already?” asked Elsa anxiously.

”Yes, I'm actually driving back home right now, ” replied Cherry, who already guessed that her mother was wondering when she would be arriving home.

Elsa continued, ”Cherry, go to the school now and pick Joe up. Your brother's still working at the company, so he didn't go to school to get Joe. Just a few minutes ago, a teacher called and said that Joe was still at school waiting for someone to pick him up.”

”Okay mother, I'll be right there, ” hastily said Cherry.

After she hung up, Cherry made a turn and then drove to Joe's school.

At the school's gate, Cherry saw that her son was standing there, accompanied by a female teacher. 'She's the teacher I met a couple of days ago, ' thought Cherry.

Cherry got out of her car and went to Joe.

”Joe!” cried Cherry.

”Mommy!” When Joe saw his mother, he run to her, and the teacher also followed him and came closer to Cherry.

Cherry hugged his son and saw the teacher approaching her. ”I'm really sorry for having kept you waiting for so long, ” said Cherry to the teacher, in a both respectful, and regretful, manner.
