Lennox and Adrienne were engrossed in their talks and plans for Nanchuan when Adrienne's phone rang. She took her phone from her purse and frowned when she saw Samantha calling her. She checked the time, and it wasn't even time for the end of the classes. She wondered what Samantha needed from her this time.
"What's wrong?" Lennox asked, sensing the sudden change in her mood.
"It's Samantha," Adrienne replied before picking up the call. Samantha explained her situation in a few words and asked her sister-in-law to come and pick her up at school, as the teacher wanted to have a word with her guardian.
Adrienne ended the call and pinched the bridge of her nose. She knew Samantha was being bullied at school, but she thought it ceased once Samantha started to live with her brother.
