The next morning, Lauren was woken up by the alarm clock again. Ruby woke up a few minutes earlier than her and was already washing up.

Lauren stayed in bed for a while before getting up again.

Carina was aware that Lauren and Ruby were living together, so she was not surprised to see the two of them getting out of the same car.

She squatted down and asked about Ruby’s condition. She was relieved to see that Ruby was not in a bad mood.

“You two go in first. By the way, Lauren, come to the office to look for me in the afternoon. I have something to tell you.”

“Oh okay.” Lauren nodded blankly. She didn’t know why Carina was looking for her.

The morning passed peacefully. Ruby was in a good mood today, and she treated the other children much more warmly than before.

The other children did not know what had happened to Ruby a while ago, and Ruby did not show it at all. Even though something had happened at home, Ruby was much more lively than before.

After lunch, the children were free to move about. Lauren went to the office to look for Carina.

Carina was the only one in the office. When she saw Lauren, she even deliberately closed the door, as if she wanted to say something important.

Lauren stood in front of Carina obediently.

“Miss Bailey, why are you looking for me?”

“Lauren, Ruby’s mother, Susan Harding, wants to meet you.”

“Meet me? Why?”

“She knows you are good friends with Ruby in kindergarten, so she has some questions for you. The case regarding Ruby and her mother isn’t over yet. Ruby has already confirmed many times that the injuries on her body, including the allergy incident, were caused by her mother. However, her mother has yet to admit it, and the police have no direct evidence to prove it. Therefore, you may need to cooperate to answer some questions.”

“There’s no need to be nervous. You just need to tell the truth.”

Lauren nodded. She originally wanted to look for Susan, but she did not expect Susan to take the initiative to meet her. This saved her a lot of effort.

“Sure, Miss Bailey. I’m willing to meet Ruby’s mother.”

“As this matter cannot be delayed, the police also want to close the case as soon as possible and find out who is at fault, can we go over this afternoon? I will help you apply for leave for the kindergarten classes.”

“Yes, that’s fine. I’ll let my brother know first.”

“Alright. I’ll pick you up from class then.”
