A Love Trap

Chapter 807 Congratulations

However, Ashley's message was unanswered.

When Ashley was about to call Chloe to find out the reason, she received a sad message from her.

Well, the message was actually more like Chloe ranting about Nolan's restrictions on her.

Apparently, he would no longer allow her to play on her cellphone like she used to.

Ashley replied, smiling, "He is just looking out for you and he is just after your own good. You are pregnant now. Your health is the top priority."

She got no reply from Chloe for a long while again. Thinking of the words that Chloe had said to her just now, Ashley thought that she might not have time to use her cellphone to reply, so she put her cellphone away and got back to work.

Ashley's company was now getting on the right track in J City, of course, with Andrew's help.

Although Ashley did not want to ask him for help, Andrew had lent a hand without her knowledge. Otherwise, Ashley would have picked a fight with him over it.

But what Andrew had done was only a small matter. Many things could only be done by Ashley. Besides, Andrew knew that Ashley wanted to get it all done by herself.

Of course, Andrew did not interfere with Ashley's decisions. Instead, Ashley had his full support.

A new semester would begin in September. Soon, it would be time for Richard and Fabio to go to school.

Richard would be in fifth grade. Because Fabio had just started schooling, he would be in kindergarten and could not yet go to primary school like Richard.

Also, Fabio was smarter than other children at his age, and did not think it was fun to hang around those kids who cried a lot. He did not even want to have any contact with them at all.

But Fabio was too young to go to first grade. They had to send him to kindergarten and let him study in preschool for a while.

Hearing what Fabio said, Ashley could not help poking him on the forehead. "You're just a child yourself. What do you mean you don't like their crying and their being needy and clingy? Don't you cling to me a lot?" Ashley asked.

Then Ashley looked at him in amusement. Fabio was too cute for his behavior.

Fabio frowned and said, "I'm different from them. I'm not so clingy."

"Then tell me who always insists on sleeping beside me every night? Do you think that's not being clingy?"

Ashley looked into Fabio's eyes as she asked.

Hearing Ashley's words, a look of embarrassment appeared on Fabio's face, which was exactly like Andrew's. He looked at Ashley shyly and did not know what to say.

Fabio could have gone to kindergarten when he was three years old, but he had a brother who was a top student at home. Because of that, even if he did not go to kindergarten, his IQ was high enough to grasp the knowledge taught in kindergarten.

But this time, Ashley would no longer spoil him as much as she did in M Country.

It was Ashley anyway who insisted that Fabio had to go to kindergarten. It would be ridiculous for him to stay at home alone.

"I'll drive your brother to primary school first, and then I'll drive you to kindergarten school. Don't be so bad tempered, okay? You must do this. Do you understand?"

It was the first time Ashley talked to Fabio in such a serious tone, but he did not think that his mother was angry. He simply nodded obediently.

Chant, who was sitting next to them, kept silent all this time. Of course, he was in favor of Fabio having to go to kindergarten. It was impossible for him to intercede for Fabio.

"Okay, that's it. Now go wash your face and brush your teeth. You should sleep well tonight, okay?"

"Okay."

"Okay, Great Grandpa. I'm going to sleep now. Good night."

"Yeah, good night, good boy," Chant answered.

"Grandpa, I'll take him to his room. Good night," Ashley said.

"All right, all right, go, go."

Ashley took him upstairs.

Andrew had a party to attend, so he was not home yet.

When Ashley stepped in Fabio's bedroom, he suggested suddenly, "Mommy, can I sleep beside my brother tonight? I have something to ask him."

"Okay, but don't stay up too late. I have to enroll him tomorrow."

"Okay. Thank you, Mommy," Fabio replied.NôvelDrama.Org owns © this.

"Good boy."

Ashley took Fabio to get washed, and then they went to Richard's room.

The light in Richard's bedroom was still on. When Ashley and Fabio stepped in, Richard was sitting at his desk and reading a book. The book was for fifth graders, which Ashley bought him the other day.

Although Richard had been studying junior high school courses for a while now, he still needed to prepare for his lessons before his new classes tomorrow.

"Mommy, Fabio, you're here. What's up?"

Seeing Ashley and Fabio, Richard quickly put down his book and went to them.

Ashley touched Richard's head and said, "I'm sorry, honey. Did we disturb you?"

Richard shook his head. "No. I was just about to go to bed," he answered.

"Very well. Remember to go to sleep early tonight. You have school tomorrow, okay?"

"Okay."

"Brother, can I sleep here tonight?" Fabio walked over and took Richard by the hand.

Richard gave a nod and said, "Of course. No problem."

"Great! Thank you!"

Ashley was happy to see her two kids get along well with each other. She tucked them in and covered them with the quilt. Then she kissed them on the foreheads and said, "Good night. Mommy is going to bed, too."

"Good night, Mommy."

"Good night, Mommy."

Having put the children to bed, Ashley turned off the light and left the bedroom.

After Ashley stepped out, Fabio turned around and looked at Richard. He asked, "Do you think it's fun in kindergarten?"

"Why do you ask?"

"Mommy is going to take me to kindergarten tomorrow, but I don't want to go there. I think the kids there are sticky, and they cry all the time. It's not fun at all," Fabio said anxiously.

Richard pressed his lips together. He did not know what to say.

Before he could say anything, Fabio continued, "When you were in kindergarten, had you met some sticky children? Didn't you think they were annoying?"
