Chapter 1583
“Who were you calling just now?” She cupped Ivy’s face in her hands and gave it a gentle rub.
Ivy mulled it over.
She didn’t hide it from her mom: “I was calling my principal. One of my classmates didn’t show up this afternoon,
so I wanted to check in.”
“Alison? Rosalynn held Ivy’s hand as they walked into the room.
Ivy was taken aback: “Did dad tell you what happened today?”
“Yeah.” Rosalynn nodded, “Dad was worried you might be upset, but he’s not the best at comforting people, so he
called in mom.”
Ivy leaned her head on Rosalynn’s arm.
She let out a long sigh: “I must be the luckiest kid in the world. Alison’s mom is so scary, she was crying and making
a scene, and even slapped Alison in front of everyone.”

know who’s on special support. But Alison’s mom just blurted it out in front of everyone…
“You want to help Alison, don’t you?” Rosalynn asked gently.
Ivy nodded softly.
“Dad and I will do our best, but… honey, everyone has their own destiny. We can only do so much, and the result
might not be satisfactory. Don’t blame yourself, okay?” Rosalynn lightly patted her cheek.
“Got it!” Ivy nodded vigorously.
“Good girl” Rosalynn gave her a hug, “Go take a bath.”
“Are you going for a walk with dad?” Ivy asked.
“Yeah-Rosalynn nodded with a smile, “Dad wants to check on your pet goldfish, and then play some frisbee with
Max.”
“Okay!”
After leaving Ivy’s room, Rosalynn saw Wayne waiting in the small living room.
The moon was lovely that night.
The goldfish in the pond were very friendly.
Whenever someone approached, they would wag their tails and swim over
Rosalynn squinted at them, then told
Wayne the names Ivy had given them.
Max was lying by the pond. They didn’t notice his movement, and the next second his black nose was in the water,
blowing bubbles.
Then he would bark at Wayne and Rosalynn a couple of times, putting on an “I’m a good dog, praise me” face.
“As long as you don’t jump in, you’re a good dog!” Rosalynn patted Max’s head.
“Has he ever jumped in?”
“When we first put the goldfish in, he’d jump in every day. No matter how much we scolded him, he wouldn’t listen,
Rosalynn said with a smile “One day Ivy had just finished giving him a bath, and he turned around and jumped into
the pond, which made Ivy cry. After that, he never jumped in again”

one to Max.
Max happily started to eat.
Some crumbs fell to the ground, and he would push them into the pond with his paw
The goldfish seemed to be used to this, and they immediately came to eat the crumbs.
Max watched, his tail wagging in joy
After a while, Wayne’s phone started ringing
Rosalynn turned to look at him.
It’s from Pauline’s end”Wayne said
Rosalynn took the phone and picked up
“Mr. Silverman, we’ve followed your instructions and let Pauline personally see her husband celebrating with
another woman in an expensive restaurant The voice on the other end of the phone belonged to the bodyguard
who was responsible for watching Pauline during the day
“What happened then?” Wayne asked
The bodyguard seemed to grit his teeth “This wornan’s behavior is just beyond understanding and helping”
