Keilani turned around and called out, "Uncle."

"Tyrone, there you are. Please, have a seat." Royce offered a warm smile and said to Keilani, "Keilani, I need to talk with Tyrone in private. You go upstairs for now."

Keilani bit her lip and nodded in acquiescence. Her presence in the Nelson family's residence after more than a decade seemed to be both welcomed and distant. It was not a place where she could do as she pleased.

As Keilani made her way upstairs, Royce settled into a chair opposite Tyrone. “Keilani can be a bit spoiled sometimes. I hope you can forgive her if she offends you."

Tyrone returned the smile. "Not long ago, I found myself in a difficult situation, and you played a crucial role in resolving it.

I can't thank you enough for your help. Besides, Keilani is your niece. I wouldn't argue with her."

"As an official, it's my duty to uphold justice for the people. No need to thank me for that. You should thank your wife," Royce replied with a warm smile.

"My wife?"

"Yes. She came to me. Were you not aware?"

It was at that moment that Tyrone realized Sabrina's efforts. On the day she returned home, despite the disagreement they had had while he was in detention, she had reached out to Royce, seeking Royce's help for his sake.

Moved by Sabrina's actions, Tyrone couldn't help but smile. She must have been furious with him at that time, but she still tried to help him.

In the following week, Tyrone made a habit of calling Sabrina every day, hoping for her return.

Sabrina reassured him that the shoot was going well and that she would be back soon.

One day, the principal of Jared Kindergarten received an important guest, Keilani, the niece of a high-ranking official like Royce.

Keilani claimed to have been asked by one of her friends to investigate local kindergartens as they were planning to return home with their children.

Jared Kindergarten had earned a reputation as one of the finest private kindergartens in Mathias. It boasted top-notch facilities, dedicated teachers, an excellent canteen, and impeccable service. The tuition fees matched the high standards, making it an exclusive choice.

Unlike most kindergartens, Jared Kindergarten didn't have extended winter or summer breaks. Instead, it offered only a two-week vacation during the New Year period, like a nursery school. Furthermore, the kindergarten provided various classes for students to explore their interests.

The steep tuition fees made it inaccessible for ordinary families, ensuring that only children from influential backgrounds could attend.

The principal eagerly showcased the kindergarten's facilities and offerings to Keilani, hoping to win her favor.

Keilani had no choice but to patiently engage in conversation and pretend to be polite.
