Chapter 2

After breakfast, the man put on his coat, grabbed his keys and briefcase, and left for work. Ms. Susan started to clean up the dining table. “Madam, since Sir has already left, you’d better go too. It’s getting late.”

Although Jessica was mute, Winson, her son, was able to talk because Ms. Susan, Blake, and the early education computer taught him to.

Because she could not even teach her son the most basic things, she had to do her best to demonstrate her love. From washing him up to preparing his breakfast and dinner, and buying his clothes and shoes plus baby products, she did them all by herself.

The doorbell rang. Whenever he heard the pleasant chime of the bell music, Winson would wave his little toy car in the air.

When Ms. Susan turned around to Jessica, she noticed her clear black eyes turn a little gloomy. Even her smile somewhat froze.

Ms. Susan stopped tidying the table and sighed as she wiped her hands and went to answer the door.

“Ms. Jackson, you are early.” Ms. Susan opened the door for Kim.

Ever since Winson uttered his first word, the family realized that the child might face difficulties in speaking, so they started to search for a linguistic teacher to teach him how to speak.

Kim was undoubtedly spectacular. She came from a family of scholars besides being beautiful and kind herself. She graduated from a famous university with a bachelor's degree and had mastered Mandarin, English, French, and even Spanish. She even possessed the qualification as a nursery teacher.

“Morning, Ms. Susan, Mrs. Ferguson.” Kim changed into the soft indoor slippers at the entrance before she walked in. Her beautiful eyes scanned the living room and the kitchen. “Has Mr. Ferguson already gone to work this early?”

Ms. Susan nodded. “Yeah, Mr. Ferguson is always early. He doesn’t like getting stuck in traffic.”

While Ms. Susan might not be highly educated, she had been a nanny for many upper-class families, so she had seen many kinds of people throughout her career. She knew that Ms. Jackson was not merely here to teach Winson how to speak.

She glanced at Jessica again. The reason why she had reminded Jessica to leave early was that she did not want the latter to run into this woman. After all, hiring another woman to teach her own child how to speak was not the best feeling a mother could experience.

On top of that, when Ms. Susan noticed how elegantly Ms. Jackson was dressed, she knew what the woman was planning.

“Take care of Winson. I’m going to work,” Jessica communicated with Ms. Susan by sign language before she smiled and nodded at Kim. She then kissed her son, who was playing with his toy car in the baby chair before she took her bag and left.

She was a teacher at a deaf-mute school. Ever since the Fergusons hired Kim as a nursery teacher, she decided to go back to work.

The Fergusons was a respectable family in Beijing. They had countless properties under their name, be it villas or an entire skyscraper.

When Blake and Jessica got married, they were still staying in the old Ferguson manor, but after Winson was born, the grandfather was worried that his precious grandchild might get infected or fall sick, so he told Blake and Jessica to move out.

Blake bought a single-story mansion for that purpose. Although it was not exactly big, it was not entirely a small shack either. The mansion was around 300 square meters large.

There were no stairs in the house, so there was no risk of the child falling down from the stairs. Most of the furniture in the house had rounded edges. Even those with sharper edges were padded with soft edge covers. The floor was covered with a velvet carpet so that even if the child fell down, it would not hurt as much.

They chose a reasonably sized house because if the child decided to run around, his parents would be able to locate him easily.

Looking at all the signs, be it Blake himself or his entire family, everyone doted on Winson tremendously.
