Chapter 1237: Chapter 1237: Encircled
After sorting out the minor incident in the morning, Charlotte Thompson took her two little ones, Jack Thompson and Chad Thompson, to the Ross Family.
Originally, Justin Battleson planned to drive them, but unexpectedly, the company executives decided to hold a board meeting, so Justin could only rush to the company in haste.
Charlotte had no choice but to take the two kids herself.
On the way, the children chatted and laughed, making the atmosphere less serious.
However, as they approached the Ross Family’s home, both children fell silent.
Seeing this, Charlotte couldn’t help but chuckle lightly.
"What? Are you little ones feeling nervous?"
"Will there be many people from the Ross Family today?" Jack couldn’t help but ask.
"I asked your Ross Dad earlier, and he said there wouldn’t be too many people. In Druarus, the main Ross Family doesn’t have many members, and besides, your Ross Dad was also worried you’d be scared of meeting strangers, so he didn’t notify too many people. It’s just a few highly-respected elders in the family who’ll witness writing your names into the family genealogy."
Charlotte earnestly explained to the children.
After all, people like Oliver Ross had emerged from the Ross Family before, and Charlotte also worried that upon returning to the Ross Family, the children might be bullied or schemed against by some people again.
Therefore, she had made prior contact with Adam Ross, and only after receiving such assurances from him did Charlotte feel slightly relieved.
"Jack won’t be afraid; Jack is a brave child," said Jack immediately.
"Chad is too!" Chad also spoke up, unwilling to be outdone.
However, this statement coming from his mouth didn’t carry much persuasiveness.
After all, Chad Thompson’s personality was quite soft and cute, often blushing and getting shy, which made him the one Jonathan Thompson loved teasing most.
While Charlotte was talking with the children, they arrived at the Ross Family’s place. Just as she got out of the car and was bringing the kids out, suddenly, several people surged out from somewhere and ran towards them.
Charlotte immediately guarded the children behind her.
"Miss Thompson, it really is Miss Thompson!"
The leading woman’s eyes lit up upon seeing Charlotte, but she did not ignore the wariness in Charlotte’s eyes, so she immediately introduced herself.
"Miss Thompson, you don’t need to be nervous, I am a reporter from Serenade Entertainment, and we wanted to conduct some interviews with you and your children."
Although the woman said so, she and the cameraman behind her kept moving closer to Charlotte, even fixating their gaze on Jack and Chad behind Charlotte.
Hearing this, Charlotte’s brows furrowed deeply.
How could there be so many media and paparazzi outside Ross Family’s place?
As Charlotte pondered this, camera flashes suddenly lit up, causing her eyes to sting painfully, let alone Jack and Chad.
Such actions naturally made Charlotte very dissatisfied, and she spoke up without hesitation:
"I’m sorry, we do not accept interviews, please move aside immediately."
However, these media outlets had been waiting at the Ross Family’s doorstep for a long time and, having seen both Charlotte and the children Jack and Chad, how could they possibly give up the chance to scoop such a major story?
They crowded in front of Charlotte, one pushing another, and the cameramen seemed almost ready to thrust their cameras right into Charlotte’s face.
Ignoring Charlotte’s reluctance, they excitedly asked her questions with the microphones in their hands.
