Chapter 956 The Little Boy
“Yes.”
Yolanda yawned, then she added, “My brother mentioned that this child is quite intelligent, so he specifically requested him.”
“But…”
Mrs. Lydia pursed his lips, her eyebrows scrunching up. “Alexis is a bit unique… He doesn’t follow the rules at the orphanage, and he doesn’t interact with the other children…”
“He shows signs of autism, so…”
“I understand.”
Yolanda rolled her eyes and took out a ch*ck for ten million from her handbag. “Will this suffice?”
Mrs. Lydia’s eyes lit up instantly upon seeing the amount on the check. “Absolutely! It’s more than enough!”
“After today’s performance, I will promptly initiate the adoption process for Alexis on behalf of your brother!”
“Alright.”
Yolanda muttered, looking at her polished fingernails “Has Cherise arrived?”
“Yes, she’s here!”
“Great.”
Yolanda walked briskly towards the auditorium. “I would like to sit next to Cherise; please arrange it for
me.”
“Of course, of course!”
Mrs. Lydia gestured her hands to the auditorium, eagerly leading Yolanda straight to Cherise’s side.
“Oh,” Yolanda said in a deep, creaky voice.
When Yolanda saw Cherise in her high ponytail and plaid dress, she couldn’t help but chuckle. “Mrs. Lenoir looks so youthful in this attire.”
“I don’t think I’ve dressed like that since high school; there are very few people around me who still dress like that.”
“Mrs. Lenoir, as a mother of two, you sure are dressing ‘young’ for your age. It’s quite surprising.”
Cherise gave her a side-way glance. “Don’t make a big deal out of it.”
“That’s Miss Yolanda.”

Damien whispered through his earpiece, “She is Sebastian’s older sister; I don’t have much of an opinion on her. She most likely came today because she’s following Sebastian’s orders and intentionally sought you out.”
“Oh.”
Cherise pursed her lips, then she looked up at Yolanda and inquired, “Miss Weiss, how old are you?”
Yolanda narrowed her eyes. “I’m twenty-six.”
“That’s only one year older than me.”
The corners of Cherise’s eyes crinkled as she remarked with a melodic voice, “I thought you were ten years older than me, given your old-fashioned attire.”
Yolanda stood in front of Cherise and glared at her sharply. “You!”
“What’s the matter?”
Cherise blinked at her, feigning innocence. “Miss Weiss, you’re blocking the light with your size.
Yolanda’s nostrils flared, and her cheeks started to grow scarlet from rage. She almost wanted to lunge at Cherise to bring her down and mess her up.
How dare she call me fat!
So what if I’m slightly larger!
“Ladies and gentlemen, please take your seats.”
Mrs. Lydia smiled and intervened in the argument between Cherise and Yolanda. “Our children are prepared. The performance is about to commence!”
Cherise nodded calmly and sat down.
Scoffing haughtily, Yolanda then proceeded to sit down.
The performance commenced.
A group of children rushed onto the stage, and Cherise recognized the little boy she had seen in a video previously.
The little boy appeared unhappy at the moment.
Mrs. Lydia smiled and teased him, “Alexis, cheer up!”
“Someone is here to adopt you! After the performance, you will go home with this lady in white!”
Alexis looked towards the lady Mrs. Lydia had pointed, mistakenly thinking that Cherise was the one. He then asked, “Who is taking me home?”
Yolanda quickly smiled at him, “It’s me.”

“I don’t want to go with you.”
Alexis pursed his lips and turned away coldly.
Yolanda’s face turned grim as she clenched her fist tightly.
Smiling awkwardly with a few drops of sweat plastered on her temples, Mrs. Lydia said, “Miss Weiss, don’t take it personally. Alexis has been in kindergarten for a while and lacks manners.”
“Don’t worry! He will surely turn out to be a fine gentleman under Miss and Mr. Weiss’ guidance!”
