Chapter 1 Pretending to be a Parent_1

The next day, Basil Jaak, as always, drove his car to the entrance of the Sky Garden and gave Jessica Flack a call.

This time, Jessica Flack didn't keep Basil Jaak waiting for long and quickly came downstairs with Krystal Flack.

"Basil Jaak, I'm afraid I'll have to trouble you to take Krystal to school this time." Jessica Flack said to Basil Jaak, "Mr. Joseph fell ill last night."

Basil Jaak nodded, and asked, "Is Mr. Joseph seriously ill?"

Jessica Flack shook her head, "Not too serious; just the common flu. He'll be okay after a few days of rest. But for these few days, I'll need you to give Krystal a lift."

Basil Jaak glanced at Krystal Flack who was silently standing by Jessica Flack's side, smiling half-jokingly, "No problem. As long as you're willing to give me a raise."

"Money-grubber!" Krystal Flack muttered under her breath.

"Get in the car, we're running late." Jessica Flack said, opening the car door and calling out to Krystal.
