Chapter 672: Chapter 672: Individual Retribution (3)

Millie Campbell was at a loss for words, she hadn’t backhanded Axel with much force, but the little rascal...

Axel didn’t cry, but in his heart, he was sad. Sometimes he was envious of Evelyn Willow because her tears would just flow like turning on a tap.

Evelyn later advised him, "When you’re sad, just be sad. If you want to cry, just cry. Don’t pretend to be tough. We’re boys, and when we grow up, we won’t be able to cry even if we want to. So now we should make the most of our time as children and have a good cry."]

At the time, Axel didn’t quite understand why boys couldn’t cry when they grew up. But later, he found out that the feeling of wanting to cry but not being able to was truly unbearable.

Compared to today’s forced bravery, the feelings were totally different.

After saying goodbye to Elena, there were less than five days left until the start of the school year. Axel had to focus his mind, stay at home, and adjust his daily routine. Luckily, Carolline had strict expectations for him during summer vacation, so he didn’t need a significant adjustment, just having to change his bedtime by half an hour.

Axel carefully stored all the gifts Elena had given him and even found a delicate little box to put them all in, which he then locked away in a drawer.

Whenever he missed Elena, he would take these items out to have a look at them. Each gift was a memory.

Besides, when he really missed her, he could always video call, so life without Elena by his side shouldn’t be too sad.

When Carolline came back from work in the evening, she had planned to comfort her darling son. However, Axel was drawing on some paper and seemed much better emotionally than he had been in the morning.

It seemed that his ability to self-regulate was strong after all, so she didn’t need to worry about him.

Carolline was satisfied with this.

Since the kindergarten was about to start, Bryan Hawkins had invested all his capital in the kindergarten during the summer vacation. While Carolline spent time with Axel, Bryan would be in the study room, using Whatsapp to communicate with Emily Hill and Faye Miller.

With lots of new equipment, Star Bilingual Kindergarten was completely renewed. Faye was already writing an application report, so their kindergarten would soon reach another level.

In recent days, they had received many calls from people wanting to enroll their children, and Emily was also very busy.

Many people who knew her came to ask for favors and pull strings.

Faye had thanked Bryan countless times, but he would always politely say it wasn’t necessary. After all, Emily was the Deputy Director, and his precious son was studying at the kindergarten as well, so as a dad, his contributions were only natural.

After finishing speaking with Emily and the others, Bryan eagerly returned to his room. Carolline had already taken her shower and was blow-drying her hair. He walked over, took the hairdryer from her hand, and helped her dry it.

Carolline didn’t refuse. If he wanted to show off, she would let him show off, especially since her mood was quite good tonight.

"What were you working on in the study?" Carolline rarely showed concern for his every move.

"I was chatting with your mother about the kindergarten," Bryan said casually.

"She actually talked to you about the kindergarten?" Carolline knew that Emily was busy because classes were about to start. Axel was also looking forward to it, and in a few days, they would take him shopping for new clothes, just like they did every year.

"I invested two million to renovate the kindergarten. Remember when I just returned to the country? I thought I had mentioned it to you, and I assumed your mother would have told you, too."
