No Substitutes for the Bigshots' Dream Girl Anymore!-Chapter 1851: Hayes Edwards Side Story (8)

But in the little boy’s eyes... he just thought it was kind of cute.

Sweet, obedient...

At three years old, children don’t understand much, they feel that if they like someone, they want to get the other’s attention, and their methods are clumsy, either pulling braids or snatching cookies.

It seems that Grace Winter’s braid-pulling incidents still haven’t changed, she gets angry, but the anger never lasts long.

Just like when others call her "little dummy," she knows it’s not nice, but she’s also willing to believe that they truly want to be friends with her.

During a shopping trip, Mother Winter shared her worries with Mother Edwards.

"Grace is still young, kids mess around a bit, if she gets bullied we can step in, but if she gets older and it continues when she’s in school, as parents we might not know right away."

Mother Edwards nodded, then thought for a moment and said, "Since they’re in the same kindergarten, maybe I should go home and ask Hayes to go have a look?"

Hayes Edwards was annoyed.

Really annoyed.

Why should Grace Winter getting bullied have anything to do with him? He had already helped her once.

How could someone be so silly, always getting bullied and not knowing how to fight back?

"Grace is a girl, and you’re good friends, maybe if others see she has such a strong brother, they won’t bully her anymore."

"We are not good friends." Hayes muttered quietly while eating his cake.

On Monday morning, Hayes and Grace Winter entered kindergarten together.

Before Mother Edwards left, she reminded them to hold hands, "Remember to take Grace to her classroom."

Hayes replied perfunctorily.

Once inside kindergarten, Hayes immediately let go of Grace’s hand and even stuffed his backpack into Grace’s arms, telling her, "You help me take the backpack to the classroom, I’m going to play for a bit."

"Hayes..." but he was already far away, "...Edwards."

Grace Winter could only watch his back and then head to Hayes’ classroom with the two backpacks.

The big kids were still playing outside.

To parents, there’s not much difference between the big kids and little kids, but in the eyes of little kids, the big kids hold the status of big brothers and sisters.

If you have a big brother or sister in the big kids group, you don’t have to worry about getting bullied in the little kids group.

But Grace Winter still got bullied.

Probably because everyone felt that Hayes Edwards didn’t really like his "little sister."

It wasn’t until after craft class that Hayes finally remembered what his mom had said yesterday.

To find the boy who was pulling Grace’s braids in the little kids group.

"Is this big brother standing up for little sister?" Chubby, chewing a lollipop, said in wonder, "So cool, Hayes Edwards, can you take me along?"

Hayes made a grumpy face, "Don’t call me Hayes Edwards."

Chubby was puzzled, "But I heard your sister always call you that."

"She’s not my sister." This had almost become Hayes’ catchphrase.

"Alright." Chubby wasn’t fazed, "Can you take me along to stand up for Grace now?"

Hayes was frustrated.

But in the eyes of the other little girls, he was still like the garden prince, a little prince.

Um... an irritable little prince?

"Let’s go!"

Hayes jumped down from the board twenty centimeters off the ground, Chubby quickly followed in his footsteps.

The Strawberry class was on the first floor, quite a bit away from the big kids’ area.
