It was practically a given that Renee's family would win the game today because their charmingcostumes would definitely earn them high marks.
"I think so too. We'll be the champions for sure! Adie, Abby… Let's do our best!" Renee said to herchildren eagerly. Miss Apple then turned to look at Quinton, and was mesmerized by his good looks.Blushing, she asked shyly, ”Sir, are you Adie and Abby's father? You're so handsome.” She had takenover Adie and Abby's class during the previous semester, so she usually only met Margaret. She hadno idea what Adie and Abby's father looked like.
"Umm... he is—" Renee started awkwardly, but Quinton interrupted her.
"Yeah, I'm Adie and Abby's father,” he said firmly.
"Great, because we need the kids’ parents to help them complete their tasks today. The rules are thatonly the kids’ parents can join the competition, and relatives and friends can only watch and cheerthem on," Miss Apple explained.
“Understood, Miss Apple. We'll try our best,” Quinton replied with a smile. He had learned of thisspecific rule beforehand which was why he was pretending to be Adie and Abby's father for now. Heknew that the children would be disappointed if they couldn't join the competition, and he didn't wantthat.
However, Renee was a little upset by that rule. "Miss Apple, I I _ think that rule isn't very nice.”novelbin
"Why's that, Miss Everheart?” Miss Apple asked.
"The divorce rate is so high nowadays. Some kids live with their mother, father, or even theirgrandparents. Can't they join this competition? Isn't that rule a little discriminatory?"
Renee knew for a fact that the current divorce rate had risen tremendously. If the kindergartendiscriminated against children from divorced families, many of the children would suffer. To Renee, itwas an extremely outdated concept.
"Miss Everheart, I understand your concerns, but that won't I happen at Monte Perry Kindergartenbecause we're very strict about the students’ backgrounds here. Generally, children from the kind offamilies you talked about won't be allowed to attend this kindergarten. Besides, the rule is just there toprevent any cheating during the game. It's unfair for the other parents, don't you think?" Miss Appledidn't know about the complicated situation in Adie and Abby's family, and she had no idea that herwords had hurt Renee.
"But..." Renee wanted to argue but Quinton stopped her. Quinton leaned in close to her ear andwarned her, "Forget it, Renee, ordinary people won't understand. Besides, the kids are still studyinghere, so let's not make a fuss."
“Well, I just wonder why they're so prejudiced towards single families. Are we living in ancient times?”Renee huffed sulkily, far from appeased.
"It's very normal. The parents here are elites, so naturally, they'll want their kids to live in a harmoniousand loving environment. They'll always want the best for their kids," Quinton replied rationally. His calmpacifism was a stark contrast to his past self, who would have definitely argued and made a scene.
For a moment, Renee felt helpless.
