At this moment, Carina Bailey and the mathematics teacher walked over.

“Lauren, who is he?”

“He is my uncle.”

Ben was a little surprised, as Lauren had acknowledged him as an uncle. After all, his real identity was just a driver from the Torres family.

However, what Ben did not know was that in Lauren’s eyes, Ben was like her family member.

“Uncle, this is my homeroom teacher, Miss Bailey, and my math teacher, Miss Annesley.”

Ben greeted the two teachers. “Hello, is there anything I can help you with?”

“There is indeed something I need to talk to you about. Why don’t we go to the office?”

With that, Ben held Lauren’s hand and followed the two teachers to the office.

As they walked, Ben bent down to whisper to Lauren.

“Miss Torres, it’s only your first day of school. What did you get yourself into this time? Why are they meeting your ‘parents’?”

Lauren felt wronged. She had not done anything, instead she had performed so well today that the teacher had even rewarded her with a small red flower sticker. Why did they have to speak ill of her now?

Lauren felt a little uneasy. She followed the teachers to the office, only to discover that she was not the only child waiting in the office. There was also the silent little girl—Ruby.

A middle-aged woman was sitting next to Ruby. She looked friendly and she should Ruby’s parent.

The homeroom teacher, Miss Bailey, beckoned for Ben and Lauren to sit down.

“Miss Bailey, has Lauren done something wrong in the kindergarten?”

Carina quickly waved her hand.

“No, you misunderstood. I asked your children and you to stay here today because I heard from our math teacher that the progress of your child in math has far surpassed that of the other students in the class.”

“Our kindergarten now has a talent program, which is to train these children who are more talented in advance. Therefore, we’ve specially invited you here to ask for their opinions.”

Lauren heaved a sigh of relief. She was asked to stay back not because she did not perform well, instead it was because she had done too well.

Hence, Carina began to introduce the talent program to them.
