Chapter 1020 An Overprotective Father

......

As Zachary heard his daughter's words, he, a man who had just become a father moments ago, felt sad for his daughter. The urge and instinct to protect his daughter surged into his heart.

He picked up the little girl and said to her, "Gary and Ernest do not dislike you. I'll bring them home to play with you right now."

Heinz and Grace almost choked.

He held Maria in his arms and went to the classroom. He stood by the classroom and looked at Gary and Ernest. Then, he raised his voice and called out, "Gary, Ernest."

Gary and Ernest were just rejoicing about how they managed to escape from staying with Maria when they heard their Uncle Zachary calling out to them. 

Instantly, Gary's heart filled with some impending bad feelings.

The little boy shuddered and lowered his head, pretending that he didn't hear anything.

Ernest was smart and caught on to what Gary was doing. In an instant, he followed him and ignored their uncle.
