Francine stood speechless for a moment. She completely forgot that she was supposed to
prepare food for the picnic!
Pamela emerged slowly from the kitchen and said, “Corinne! I just had some desserts
made for the children. There are cookies and cakes. We also have plenty of bread at
home. I’ll have the nanny make some sandwiches for you. I’ll have all the food packed up
nicely, and I trust that should suffice for a picnic.”
Francine burst into a smile upon hearing that and rushed toward her grandmother
enthusiastically. “Your timing is impeccable, Grandma!”
Pamela was not particularly fond of her vivacious granddaughter and pushed her away.
By contrast, she looked at Corinne lovingly and said, “You’ve been working very hard
recently, and it’s about time you take a break this weekend.”
Corinne smiled and replied, “Okay. I will.”
The three children were thrilled and called out in unison, “Thank you, Great-Grandma!”
Hearing her great-grandchildren address her as great-grandmother was a source of pride
and joy for Pamela.

your mother and aunt when you’re out later. Don’t run around unsupervised.”
“Okay!” Joey said.
“We’ll be good!” Bryan added.

“Yes, Great-Grandma! I’ll be good, too!” Christine said.
Pamela beamed with delight. “Such good kids you all are!”
After Corinne changed into her clothes, she helped the three children prepare some extra
clothes and directed them to fill their water bottles. She then prepared for their departure
downstairs.
Pamela had already loaded all the food into the cooler box in the car.
Once everything was set, Corinne and Francine bid Pamela farewell. They, along with the
kids, got into the car and set off on their outing.
Children’s songs were played in the car, and the three kids sang along in high spirits. They
were as bright as the weather outside.
Corinne’s mood was greatly uplifted when she saw her children in such good spirits.
All of a sudden, Francine instructed the driver to pick up someone from the University of
New Capital City.
The driver complied and turned the car around.
Corinne seemed to have guessed what was going on and cocked an eyebrow at Francine.
“Are you seeing someone?”
Francine’s face turned beet red. “N—No! He’s just a classmate. He said he wanted to join
us, so I said yes! Having more people means more help with the kids!”
Corinne shrugged and decided not to press further. She knew that Francine was picking up
Chester, one of Corinne’s juniors. Francine always had a crush on him.

Corinne’s guess was spot on. When the car reached the university, Chester was waiting
readily at the gate.
The two girls and children were in the back seat, so Chester got into the front passenger
seat. As he settled in, he turned to Francine with a smile and greeted Corinne politely, “It’s
been a while, Corinne.”
Corinne nodded, “That, it has. I see you’ve chosen to stay at the university as a tutor?”
Chester ran his fingers through his hair and replied, “Yes! I’m not cut out for workplace
politics. Being a tutor suits me much better.”
Corinne smiled and commented, “That’s good. You make a great teacher, and I’m sure
you’d be better at teaching others if you had been able to ‘teach’ Francine.” She could not
resist teasing them by placing some emphasis on the word ‘teach’.
