In a blink of an eye, it was the dawn of a busy Monday morning.
At exactly ten minutes to seven, Mrs. Borah called Carla anxiously, "Miss, today's Monday. Remember to get the kids in their uniforms and pin their badges."
"Okay." Carla quickly got dressed and opened the door to take a look outside.
The three nurses arrived five minutes ago. One was preparing breakfast while the other two were helping Venus and Josh get ready.
After that, Carla shut the door and went on to freshen up.
"There's more, " Mrs. Borah continued. "Venus has art class today whereas Randy has robotics class; Josh has soccer, but his foot is injured, so he most probably won't be able to attend. Be sure to let the nurses know about these classes."
Mrs. Borah kept going until the voice of a nurse could be heard. "Mrs. Borah, Dr. Goman is coming to do a check-up. Can you put your phone down? We need to measure your blood pressure."
"Just a second, I'm not done here, " Mrs. Borah replied. "Miss, Randy doesn't like to eat egg yolks, so please convince him. And Josh always pours the milk into the flower pot, so you need to keep an eye on him. As for Venus, make sure there's no layer of film on the milk, or she'll get a stomachache."
"I understand, Mrs. Borah, " Carla replied while she brushed her teeth. "Just focus on your treatment. I'll find some time to bring the kids along to visit you."
"Alright then. That's all for now. You should hurry up and don't forget to have some breakfast.
After that call, Carla's heart melted just by thinking about Mrs. Borah's reminders…
Meanwhile, since there were three nurses to take care of the kids, the morning progressed rather efficiently.
When Carla got out of the bathroom, breakfast was already ready. The kids were all prepared for school and sat at the dining table quietly.
Carla also took some breakfast and went down the stairs with the kids. Then, she sent them on the school bus before hopping in her car to go to work.
A lot had happened recently, so Carla did not really get to do her work.
Carla felt a little sorry, so she swore that she would do her best from then onward.
That day, Carla had reached her office earlier than usual, so there was no queue at the elevator. When she was about to enter, she saw Mosa and a few higher-ups inside. Hence, she immediately backed away. "You guys go ahead. I'll wait for the next one."
"Come in." Mosa shifted a bit and made space for Carla.
Left without a choice, Carla entered with her head down.
However, the people inside were talking among themselves. No one was bothered by her.
"Miss Tisona, is the press conference at one o'clock? Will Mr. Giblo be there?" One of the higher-ups asked.
"Of course, Mr. Giblo will definitely be present at such an important event such as this, " Mosa answered with a smile.
"Will Miss Benday from Dorilo be there too? We've not seen her in a while now."
"Miss Benday's such a talented, capable and beautiful person. Not to mention easygoing. There doesn't seem to be a hint of arrogance in her."
"That's true. I bumped into her last time at level 17, and she actually greeted me."
"I heard Mr. Giblo and Miss Benday are getting engaged. Is that true?"
"I'm not sure about that…" Mosa looked at Carla and smiled. "Today's press conference is important. Everyone should get ready and stop gossiping around."
"Hahaha… Of course!"
Their conversations continued while Carla stayed quiet. It's no wonder I didn't see Shelley these past few days. She went overseas. Will she cause any more scenes after she returns today?
Carla recalled the treatment she got at Ashenville Garden. Previously, Shelley caused a lot of problems for her, and even Brad got dragged into it.
But… Why is there a press conference today? Why didn't I know about it? It must be important if Zayn's going to attend. He didn't even attend the product launch event last time.
