Chapter 285 Are You Virginia's Parents?
Donald and Kara remained silent.
Moreover, they didn't know how to reply to Lloyd.
Donald looked at Ebony. He wanted to see how Ebony would reply.
However, Ebony looked calm, walked forward, and did not raise an eyebrow.
Donald couldn't help but say, "Miss Gibson, Mr. Vasquez said..."
"Shh." Ebony calmly waved her hand and said, "Ignore him. Just pretend you didn't hear him."
Donald was speechless.
Lloyd was also speechless.
The kindergarten was not far from home and was just outside the villa.
The four of them walked for about ten minutes to get there.
At this point, it was not yet 4:30 pm. It was only 4:20 p.m., but many people were standing outside the kindergarten. Many parents were lining up.
Ebony was a little confused. And Donald and Kara had never seen such a scene before. Therefore, the three of them were confused.
"Do parents have to stand in a queue to pick up their children now?" asked Donald.
Obviously, he hadn't been picked up like this as a child. Back then, as soon as school was over, he and the other kids would walk out of the kindergarten in a flock and arrive at the gate. Then he would naturally meet his parents.
At this point, Lloyd pulled Ebony and said, "Let's go over there."
Eventually, the four of them followed the queue and got in line.
After a while, it was 4:30 p.m. The kindergarten gate finally opened. Inside, a teacher with a loudspeaker shouted, "The children of the first, second, and third classes have arrived."
As soon as the teacher finished shouting, the parents in line in front of them all walked in.
"Do we go in too?" Donald and Kara were confused.
Ebony wasn't sure either. Then, she scratched her head and asked Lloyd, "What should we do now?"
After a moment of silence, Lloyd said, "Let's go in and wait."
Then, the four followed the other parents into the kindergarten.
Soon, the first three classes had left kindergarten. Then, the teacher continued to call parents from other classes to come in and pick up their children.
Half an hour later, all the parents had picked up their children. Only Kara, Donald, Ebony, and Lloyd were left standing alone in the middle of the hall.
At that moment, the teacher in charge came over with the list. Looking at the four of them, she asked, "May I ask which kid you guys come to pick up?"
After thinking about it, Ebony said, "We are here to pick up the children that no one wants."
The teacher was speechless.
The teacher was arranged by the crew of the variety show. She didn't expect Ebony to say something like that either. Then, she coughed and could only say, "Well, if that's the case, then may I ask which class your children are in? What are the children's last names? What are their first names?
Then, the four of them looked at each other.
Finally, Kara said tentatively, "We don't know which class the child is in. His last name is..." She looked at Donald and said, "His last name is Crawford."
It dawned on the teacher, and she said, "Alright. You're Xander's parents."
Kara immediately said, "Yeah! Yes!"
Then the teacher said to another teacher, "You go and bring Xander out."
Soon, a little boy of about five years old was brought out.
As soon as he came out, the little boy took the initiative and shouted at Kara and Donald, "Mommy! Daddy!"
It seemed that Kara and Donald had succeeded in finding their son.
This boy was Donald and Kara's son.
Donald and Kara quickly got into the act. They immediately called Xander a good boy.
Then, the teacher looked at Lloyd and Ebony and asked, "What about you two? What is your child's last name?"
Lloyd said, "Her last name is..."
Ebony suddenly said, "Her last name is Gibson,"
Lloyd froze. Then he glanced at Ebony, who was standing beside him. After that, he smiled and said, "Well, her last name is Gibson."
The teacher was speechless.
The teacher's forehead had started to sweat. Then, she looked at the list in her hand. As she looked at the little girl's last name was Vasquez with a torn expression, she didn't know how to continue.
In the monitoring room backstage.
The general director kept laughing. Then, he said excitedly, "It's confirmed! Their first kid has her mother's last name!"
At that moment, the assistant director didn't even want to talk to the general director. He worriedly took the walkie-talkie and said to the teacher, "Find an excuse. Hand the child over to them."
Then the teacher wiped the sweat from her head and said tentatively, "Does your child have her mother's last name?"
Lloyd said lightly, "Yes."
The teacher quickly asked, "Well, what is the last name of the child's father?"
Ebony said, "His last name can be any..."
Before she could finish her sentence, Lloyd suddenly reached out, grabbed her jaw, and made her tilt her head to look at him.
Then, Ebony met Lloyd's cold, dark eyes.
She twitched her lips. Finally, she pouted as she said, "Your kid's last name is Vasquez, right?"
Then Lloyd's expression eased.
Before it was too late, the teacher said, "You're Virginia's parents, aren't you?" Miss Glover, please bring Virginia out!
Ebony was speechless.
Lloyd was rendered speechless.
Ebony thought, 'Wait! Virginia... Shouldn't she be...'
"Dad! Mommy!"
The familiar voice of a child came into Ebony's ears from inside. Then, Ebony turned her head and saw a cute little girl carrying a small pink elephant school bag bouncing out from inside.
This little girl was well-behaved. When she came out, she didn't hug Ebony and Lloyd. Instead, she just stood shyly one step away from them. Then she tilted her head and looked at them with her bright eyes!
Ebony was speechless.
Lloyd was speechless.
Lloyd pursed his lips. As he looked at the sweet and beautiful little girl standing at his feet, he thought for a while and said to Ebony, "Let's have another baby. We can ditch her."
Virginia was speechless.
Ebony was speechless.
Virginia pouted as she glared at Lloyd.
Ebony was a little embarrassed. Then she picked Virginia up and whispered, "What are you doing here?"
Virginia immediately wrapped her arms around Ebony's neck. Then, she put her little face next to Ebony's head. She lowered her voice and said, "Uncle Darryl told me to come!"
Ebony thought, 'Darryl?'
Ebony frowned. Then, she looked at Lloyd and asked, "What should we do? Regarding her identity... It would be bad if we exposed her under the spotlight like this, right?"
At this point, Lloyd raised his hand and rubbed Virginia's head. He said tiredly, "It's okay."
Since it was Darryl who arranged for Virginia to join the show, Darryl would take care of it.
Seeing Lloyd say that, Ebony thought that Lloyd knew the Gibson family better than she did and said, "That's fine."
Ebony said as she glanced at Virginia. Then, she seemed to give up and said, "Alright. We'll take you!"
Virginia burst out laughing, showing her white teeth. Then, she happily hugged Ebony even tighter!
Although it was a bit tough for them to search for the child, the four of them finally picked up their children.
When they got home, Ebony thought that she hadn't bought ingredients yet and asked Virginia, "What do you want to eat?"
Virginia walked over to Ebony's feet and said obediently, "I can eat anything. I'm easy to be pleased."
Ebony chuckled. Then she stroked the top of Virginia's fluffy head and said to Lloyd, "I'll go get the ingredients. You take care of her."
Lloyd frowned. Usually, they went shopping together.
He pursed his lips and remained silent.
Ebony grabbed her phone and headed out the door. When she left, the living room fell silent.
Virginia stood in the kitchen doorway. As she looked at Lloyd's tall figure, Virginia clasped her hands together and muttered, "Daddy..."
Lloyd was speechless.
He thought Virginia was a sweet talker.
Lloyd walked over to the couch and sat down. Then he lifted his hand and waved to Virginia.
Virginia quickly ran towards Lloyd in small steps.
After a moment of silence, Lloyd sat Virginia down on the couch. Then, looking into Virginia's big eyes, he asked, "Will you listen to me?"
Virginia nodded and looked well-behaved.
Lloyd said, "When your mother comes home later, tell her that you want to have a younger brother and sister. And then you tell her to have another baby with me. Got it?"
