Chapter: 1691
"Yeah, I'm Adie and Abby's father,� he said firmly.
"Great, because we need the kids parents to help them complete their tasks today. The rules are that only the kids parents can join the competition, and relatives and friends can only watch and cheer them on," Miss Apple explained.
�Understood, Miss Apple. We'll try our best,� Quinton replied with a smile. He had learned of this specific rule beforehand which was why he was pretending to be Adie and Abby's father for now. He knew that the children would be disappointed if they couldn't join the competition, and he didn't want that.
However, Renee was a little upset by that rule. "Miss Apple, I think that rule isn't very nice.�
"Why's that, Miss Everheart?� Miss Apple asked.
"The divorce rate is so high nowadays. Some kids live with their mother, father, or even their grandparents. Can't they join this competition? Isn't that rule a little discriminatory?"
Renee knew for a fact that the current divorce rate had risen tremendously. If the kindergarten discriminated against children from divorced families, many of the children would suffer. To Renee, it was an extremely outdated concept.
"Miss Everheart, I understand your concerns, but that won't I happen at Monte Perry Kindergarten because we're very strict about the students backgrounds here. Generally, children from the kind of families you talked about won't be allowed to attend this kindergarten. Besides, the rule is just there to
prevent any cheating during the game. It's unfair mother parents, don't you think?"
Miss Apple didn't know about the complicated situation in Adie and Abby's family, and she had no idea that her words had hurt Renee.
"But..." Renee wanted to argue but Quinton stopped her. Quinton leaned in close to her ear and warned her, "Forget it, Renee, ordinary people won't understand. Besides, the kids are still studyinghere, so let's not make a fuss."
�Well, I just wonder why they're so prejudiced towards single families. Are we living in ancient times?� Renee huffed sulkily, far from appeased.
"It's very normal. The parents here are elites, so naturally, they'll want their kids to live in a harmonious and loving environment. They'll always want the best for their kids," Quinton replied rationally. His calm pacifism was a stark contrast to his past self, who would have definitely argued and made a scene.
For a moment, Renee felt helpless.
The competition started with ten teams and different tasks.
Each task was rather difficult, and quite a lot of teams were disqualified after the first few rounds, but Renee and her family were strong.
Naturally, they conquered each task successfully and soon ended up at the final task.
There were only three teams remaining for the final task, which was to raise an artificial moon to the highest spot on the platform the fastest.
The team that managed to raise it to the highest spot would be the champion, and there was also a climbing wall for the task that tested the parents strength and endurance.
"Okay, each team has to send a representative for the final task. Ladies and gentlemen, you can start preparing now," the judge announced excitedly.
Renee looked up at the tall wall and clenched her fists eagerly.
"Quinton, leave this to me. I'm good at climbing!"
"No, it looks dangerous. Let me do it instead. You can cheer me on with Adie and Abby,"
Quinton insisted though he was terrible at climbing and afraid of heights. He was trying to overcome his fears and take the lead as the head of the family. JrNovels.com
