Chapter 849

However, as the door opened, it was not the property management standing outside, but Anton who had come back.

“What brought you back again? Did you forget something?”

“No, I thought you hadn’t had dinner yet, so I packed a meal for you and brought it up. You should eat it while it’s hot.”

Anton said, handing me the takeout box.

I hesitated for two seconds, took it, and said, “Thank you.”

I turned around and placed the packed meal on the coffee table. When I lowered my eyes, I met Reynaldo’s cold expression in the video.

He sneered coldly, “I was wondering why you refused to move in with the children. So, this is what you meant by moving out from Anton’s place? You moved from that house to this one with him, didn’t you?”

“No, I…”

I hadn’t finished speaking when Reynaldo hung up the video call.

I looked at the darkened screen of my phone, feeling extremely tired at that moment.

Anton walked over to me and apologized, saying, “I’m sorry for causing you to be misunderstood by him again. Do you want me to go explain to him?”

“No, thank you,” I politely declined. “It’s very late; you should go back and rest.”

Reynaldo had a very strong bias against Anton, and explaining, I feared, would only make matters worse.

Anton stared at me for a few seconds, then smiled gently and said, “Okay, I’ll go back now. You finish up early and rest early.”

“Hmm.”

I saw Anton off at the door, then leaned against the door panel and let out a tired sigh.

I took out my phone, opened the chat box with Reynaldo, and sent a message: Anton just helped me move my luggage over.

After sending the message, I threw my phone on the sofa and prepared to continue tidying up.

I thought that man wouldn’t reply; after all, every time he misunderstood me and Anton, he would be angry for a long time.

I didn’t expect that after I sent the message, he replied within just a few seconds.

However, the content of his reply was completely unrelated to what I had said.

He said, “Tomorrow, I will take Roddy and Essie to the nearby kindergarten to register.”

I widened my eyes in shock.

Did he really want to let the two children stay with him permanently?

I quickly replied: “No need, I will sign them up over here.”

However, this time, Reynaldo did not reply to the message anymore.

I got impatient and called him directly.

The phone rang for a long time before they answered on the other end.

Roddy answered, “Hello, Mommy!”

I was taken aback, “How did you know it was Mommy?”

“When you called, your photo would appear on daddy’s phone, so I knew it was you, Mommy.”

I was so shocked that I couldn’t even speak.

Reynaldo clearly hated me so much, yet he still set my photo as the caller ID on his phone?

The man, who four years ago repeatedly said he never wanted to see me again, still kept my photo.

Thinking of this, my eyes suddenly felt a bit sour.

I asked Roddy, “Where’s your dad?”

“What’s the matter?”

The man’s faint voice suddenly came, and I was startled to realize that Roddy had already given the phone to Reynaldo.

Suppressing the surging emotions in my heart, I said to him, “Don’t register the two children for now. I will go pick them up in a few days and have them attend the kindergarten here with me.”

“Then you just tell the two children directly.”
