Okay, let’s.
At the sight of Nora staring at him expectantly, Pete gave a resigned reply.
To be honest, he wasn’t very interested in such things.
It was rare to see Mommy interested in something other than sleeping, though, so he would just
accompany her there.
The next day.
Pete went to school.
Jimmy was still hospitalized, so he didn’t come to class.
The children were still very concerned about Pete.
“Cherry, Jimmy is still unwell.His mother won’t let your mother off.You have to be carefull!”
“Cherry, will you have to drop out of school when Jimmy returns? I’m so worried about you-”
Their kindness warmed Pete’s heart very much.
He said, “Don’t worry.Everything is fine…But right after he spoke, he met Mia’s curious eyes, so he
quietly added…yeah.
The other children didn’t believe him, though.
“How can that be? I heard that the big tiger in Jimmy’s house is really fierce and menacing.It can
eat a child with each bite!”

“I’ve also heard about it! They say Jimmy’s mother is a tigress, and that his father has three legs,
four arms, and five pairs of eyes! He’s even fiercer than a tiger!”
Some of the children even started to cry.
“Cherry, I can’t bear to part with you.Sob…
Pete,”…”
Was it really alright for children to be so ignorant? The corners of his lips spasmed a little.
He was about to speak when Mia said, “Don’t worry, everyone.Cherry will be fine, yeah!”
“Why?”
“Because Cherry’s father is Justin Hunt! Jimmy’s father is afraid of Cherry’s father!”
Mia replied innocently.
“Really?”
The other adorable children congratulated him one by one “Have you found your Daddy, Cherry?
That’s great!”
“Wow, Cherry, so you have a father.I always thought that you didn’t have one.Did your mommy give
birth to you with a rock?”
“Huh? Wasn’t Cherry given to her mom as a gift with purchase? When I asked Mom who Cherry’s
dad was, she told me that her mom got her free of charge when she bought something!”
Pete was rendered speechless by how everyone was digressing from the topic.
However, there were also some who didn’t believe it.
They asked, “Cherry, is your father really Justin Hunt?”
Pete wanted to deny it, but when he met Mia’s innocent eyes, he could only silently reply, “I guess
you can say that.”
As Justin’s son, Pete had always taken his safety very seriously ever since he was a baby.He didn’t
have any bodyguards with him here, so he mustn ‘t expose his identity so casually! The bell finally
rang, and the children scattered.
Mia sat next to Pete and asked softly, “Don’t you like your father, Cherry?”
Pete nodded.
“Yeah, the tyrant is too fierce.”
Mia rested her chin on her hands and said, “Your father won’t be so fierce anymore if you become a
girl-”
Pete was taken aback.
“Why?” he asked.
Mia looked at him and replied, “Because that’s what my father says.He says that girls should be
pampered and brought up lovingly! You must have gone to your father as a boy, right?”

So, was the tyrant so strict and harsh on him because he was a boy? After class.
A few children from the higher grade came to the classroom.
The person leading them was very big and well-built, which made him look very domineering.
A few people followed behind him.
The height difference between children who were even just a year older was very obvious.
Moreover, Pete had always been in rather poor health all these years because he had stopped
breathing once when he was an infant, so he was about the same height as Cherry.
Therefore, those children were a whole half a head taller than Pete.
They gathered in front of Pete.
The one leading them pushed Pete and said, “I heard that you bullied Jimmy? I’m so happy to hear
that!”
Pete frowned.
“I didn’t.”
“What didn’t you do? Do you know who I am?”
The burly kid said, “My father is Paul Quinlan.He’s enemies with Jimmy’s father! It makes me happy
that you bullied him! I hereby announce that you can be my little sidekick from now on.’’
Pete,”?”
