Female Novel
Chapter 135
Early in the morning of the next day, Grace Smith took Gary Smith to the kindergarten.
When Gary arrived at the kindergarten gates, he heard a clear child's voice coming from behind him,
"Good morning, Gary."
Gary immediately turned around, and there was a hint of excitement in his voice. "Good morning,
Ernest."
Grace was surprised. Judging from her son's tone, she felt that Gary was rather receptive of the little
boy who greeted him.
Little Gary did not really like to be friends with the children in the kindergarten. In his words, the
children in the kindergarten were very childish.
All of a sudden, she was very curious about what kind of young boy her son would be interested to
befriend.
At the moment she turned around, Grace was stunned, and her pupils dilated in awe, she seemed to
be a little bit surprised.
Grace could feel her heart beat wildly in an uncontrollable manner.
It was a beautiful child with fair skin. His facial features were perfect. He was as tall as Little Gary, and
his appearance was somewhat similar to him too!
When she saw him, her blood seemed to boil at this moment.
Yes, because of excitement.
That kind of excitement was entirely due to the little boy in front of her.
His facial features were delicate, and his eyes were big and clear, shining like the stars in the night sky.
The more Grace looked at him, the more her heart beat wildly for no reason.
The little boy was also slightly stunned when he saw Grace. His big eyes flickered and he was a little
surprised.
"Mommy, let me introduce my friend to you." Gary took Grace's hand and walked up to Ernest.
"Mommy, this is my good friend; Ernest. Ernest, this is my mommy."
"Nice to meet you, auntie." Ernest's eyes were fixed on Grace. He was still polite, but there was still a
deep surprise in his eyes.
This auntie looked so kind.
It was the same feeling he had when he first met Gary. It made him feel an indescribable sense of
closeness.
She felt like a mother to him.
Ernest never had a mother. Every time when he saw other children that had their own mothers, there
was a hint of envy in his eyes.
"I'm Ernest." Seeing that Grace did not respond, Ernest introduced himself again.
However, Grace was still in a daze, completely staring at the child's face. She didn't move for a long
time, as if she was stunned.
Gary noticed that something was wrong. He reached out and shook Grace's hand, reminding, "Mommy,
Ernest is greeting you."
Gary saw that Grace's eyes were glued to Ernest's face, as if she was looking at her long-lost child.
There was also a hint of surprise in Little Gary's eyes. "Mommy, what's wrong with you?"
"Uh!" Grace suddenly came to her senses. She looked at Ernest and said, "Nice to meet you, Ernest.
I'm sorry, I was just lost in thought."
Ernest shook his head and said, "It doesn't matter, auntie."
Ernest was also a little distracted just now, but he quickly composed himself.
Grace was embarrassed instead. She looked at Ernest and then looked behind him.
Only then did she notice that Ernest was followed by a man in his forties.
She felt sorry for her absent-mindedness just now and said to the man, "Your child is really goodlooking
and polite. What a good boy he is."
"Thank you, lady. Our Young Master is a 'little gentleman', and so is your child." The butler smiled
faintly and explained, "However, I am just the butler of Young Master Ernest."
"Oh." Grace blushed. She thought he was the child's father, but he turned out to be the butler. "I'm
sorry, I thought..."
Grace was too embarrassed to continue.
"It doesn't matter, Auntie." Ernest Jones explained, "Many people think that Butler Holland is my father,
but in fact, my father is younger than him. However, Butler Holland is just like a father to me."
"Hm, is that so?" Grace looked at the child and nodded again. Her eyes were filled with maternal glow,
and love...
This child's words were really pleasing to the ear. He didn't belittle Butler Holland being a servant and
even spoke of him highly.
Butler Holland also looked at the young master in surprise. Usually, the young master wouldn't say
much to other children and parents, let alone take the initiative to speak for so long!
This time, Ernest, the young master, was not only greeting them out of manners, but did it with
enthusiasm, which made the butler very surprised.
Ernest's words made Butler Holland moved at once. This child was benevolent and righteous.
"Our young master is righteous. It's our honor to serve him." Butler said.
"He's really a very polite child." Grace couldn't explain how happy she was, with a little bit excited,
which was a kind of feeling she didn't noticed. Although she didn't talk much, her voice was inexplicably
heart-warming.
Ernest thought that she didn't like to talk, so he said politely, "Auntie, we have to enter the kindergarten
now."
Grace was stunned and said subconsciously, "Are you leaving already?"
There was a flash of shock in Ernest's eyes, followed by surprise. It turned out that the auntie didn't
hate him, and she even looked a little reluctant to part with him.
This discovery made Ernest a little excited.
"Yes, our class is starting soon." The little one spoke up.
"Oh, okay." Grace looked at her son, only to find that his son was staring at her with a pair of big eyes,
and his gaze were very sharp.
She took a deep breath and said, "What's wrong, Little Gary?"
Gary shook his head and narrowed his eyes. "Nothing, mommy. Let's talk about it when we get home
at night."
Grace was stunned. Could it be that this child had seen through her excitement?
"Let's go, Ernest." Gary looked at Ernest.
"Aye." Ernest nodded.
"Mommy, Butler Holland, goodbye." Gary waved to them.
Ernest nodded as well. "Goodbye, auntie. Goodbye, Butler Holland."
"Goodbye." Grace also waved her hand, reluctant to let them leave.
It took her quite a while to come to her senses.
When she turned around and saw Ernest's butler looking at her, she immediately smiled faintly and
said, "I'll leave first too, Mr. Holland."
"Okay, take care." Butler said.
Grace left quickly to the newspaper office.
Butler Holland drove back to the Jones home. When he arrived at the villa, he saw that Heinz Jones
hadn't left for work yet.
He was stunned for a moment and asked, "Sir, are you not leaving yet?"
"Yes." Heinz frowned. "Has Ernest gone to kindergarten?"novelbin
"Yes, he met his friend, Gary's mother. She is a young and beautiful lady. She looks like she is only in
her twenties. The young master greeted her with great enthusiasm." The butler reported truthfully, "He
seems to like that lady!"
Heinz was stunned. He narrowed his eyes and asked, "Butler Holland, does Ernest like that woman
very much?"
"Yes." Butler Holland nodded. "The young master might be too lonely."
As soon as he said this, he immediately realized that his way of speaking was rather inappropriate, and
quickly explained, "I mean, he may need a mother."
Heinz frowned.
"Of course, this is just my guess. The young master never said so, but every time when he sees other
children being sent to school by their mother, he will take a peek at them. Today, when he met them, he
even greeted Gary's mother politely."
