After all the kids had bathed and fallen asleep, Corinne wearily leaned against the headboard and scrolled through her phone. She had received a message from Melinda that evening that updated her about Emily's new hospital details and ward number.
Oddly enough, the messages she sent to Jeremy earlier in the day remained unanswered.
'Is he pulling the disappearing act again?' wondered Corinne with a sigh. She genuinely found this game of silence more draining than entertaining.
The busy day also made her feel very tired, so she decided to lie down and get ready to sleep. After all, she still had the task of withdrawing all three kids from the kindergarten tomorrow morning. Ever since Joey's incident, Corinne decided not to send the kids to that kindergarten anymore.
Her kids had become targets in someone's malicious game of spreading rumors. People were circulating unpleasant speculations about Joey's biological parents, and it would only get worse from there on. Therefore, Corinne decided to withdraw her kids from the kindergarten. She planned to give the kids some time to rest at home before looking for another new kindergarten for them.
Early the next morning, Corinne set out with the kids after their breakfast.
At the kindergarten entrance, there was a balloon seller who resembled the same one she saw yesterday at the Carews' residence.
Corinne instinctively led the kids to take a detour to avoid the balloon seller and into the kindergarten.
Each of them went with their respective teachers to pack their belongings while Corinne went to handle the formalities with the principal.
The principal remained oblivious to Corinne's true identity. She simply exchanged pleasantries without making a real effort to convince Corinne to stay. After all, she did not want to offend the parents of the other child, whom she perceived as wealthier and more influential.
Corinne did not waste time engaging in small talk either. Once the paperwork was done, she took the three kids and left the kindergarten with all the documents.
As they stepped outside, the balloon seller from earlier was nowhere to be seen.
Corinne did not think too much about it. She put her kids into the car, stowed their things in the trunk, and got into the driver's seat.
However, just as she turned the car around, several black cars suddenly blocked her path before she could accelerate.
This alarmed Corinne. With three kids in the car, she did not want to confront unknown individuals head-on. She was thinking of reversing the car but noticed that the way behind was also blocked by another few black cars.
'It seems like there's no way out,' thought Corinne.
Corinne calmly addressed the three kids in the car. "All three of you, stay still in the car. No matter what happens, don't get out without Mommy's permission."
The kids nodded obediently.
After instructing the kids, Corinne stepped out of the car and locked the doors.
She stood amid the line of black cars and asked, "Who are you, and what do you want?"
A man emerged from the central black car, bringing along a chubby boy.
