Chapter 1717 Forget The Time

Name:The Substitute Bride Author:Mi Lu
It was the end of the school day, and Sheryl had arrived right on time. When the kids saw her, they ran out to greet her.

"Mommy, you came!" Shirley hugged Sheryl happily.

Following Shirley was Clark. On the way to the car, the two kids told Sheryl about something interesting that had happened in the kindergarten.

"Mommy, when can we see Daddy?" Shirley asked, looking at Sheryl after she had fastened the safety belt for herself.

The question stunned Sheryl to silence. She didn't know how to explain it to the kids. What she did instead was to smile at Shirley, and then she changed the topic.

Being the observant and sensitive one, Clark saw the sorrow on his mother's face.

"Shirley, stop. Listen to Mommy." Seeing that Shirley was going to ask more questions, Clark grabbed Shirley's arm to stop her.

Pouting, Shirley didn't continue further.

Soon, they reached home.

Upon entering the house, Shirley smelled the delicious aroma of the food. She walked to Alex and smiling she asked, "Auntie Alex, what did you cook? It smells good."

"I cooked your favorite, pork ribs."

"Wow...!"

Without washing their hands, the two kids went to their chairs. When they were about to sit, Sheryl stopped them.

Shaking her head, Sheryl pretended to be angry. "Wash your hands!"

"Fine!" the two kids replied in unison and nodded at Sheryl before washing their hands.

Afterwards, they ate dinner. While eating, Sheryl asked them about what had happened in the kindergarten. The dinner was an enjoyable one.

Time flew by so fast, and soon, it was time to sleep. Sheryl read the kids' bedtime stories, and they fell asleep in no time.

After kissing their foreheads and walking out of the children's room, Sheryl went to her bedroom. Meanwhile, the two kids opened their eyes as soon as she left.

"Clark, do you think Daddy and Mommy had a fight?" Shirley asked Clark in a sweet and soft voice.

Looking at Shirley next to him, Clark nodded. "It seems that Mommy and Daddy are going to separate. We have to

k and Shirley were busy. When it was almost time to go home, the two kids hid themselves and started to talk about their plan.

Soon, it was time to leave school. Clark and Shirley ran out of the kindergarten while the teachers were too busy to pay attention to them.

"Clark, are we really going to do this?" Shirley was worried and grabbed Clark's arm.

Looking at Shirley firmly, Clark said, "Shirley, don't worry. Mommy and Daddy love us so much. If they learn we are missing, they will come to find us together. Then they will make up."

When Shirley heard Clark's explanation, she nodded crazily in an instant.

Soon, they arrived in their neighborhood but didn't go home. They planned to go home secretly when Alex had gone out. In that case, nobody would know that they were safely at home.

"Ms. Xia, didn't you say that you will be picking up the two kids?" Turning around to look at the inner office, Phoebe was surprised to still see Sheryl sitting. She rushed in to remind her of the time.

"What time is it?" Raising her head suddenly, Sheryl looked at Phoebe.

"Five minutes later than your usual time." Looking at Sheryl, Phoebe felt awkward.

"Damn! How can I have forgotten the time?" Feeling guilty, Sheryl cursed herself. She hurriedly stood up while fixing her things and prepared to leave.
