Mason had been sent to prison, so even though Lady Winnie had passed down the technique to him, he had no
chance of using it either.
According to the rules, Munchkin was the only legal heir, but because he was still young, the technique to
change one's appearance sat idle waiting for someone to cforward and claim it.
Simon could not stand it any longer. He had the Hodds to back him up, so getting his hands on the technique
was no problem.
Alex did not want others to snatch his mother's efforts away, so he needed a stronger reason. The best one was
to adopt Mason's son who was stranded out there-Munchkin.
That was the reason why he, a stranger and biological uncle, would agree to save Munchkin's life.

"Mr. Hodds emigrated a long tago, but he's always been keeping an eye on Mr. Mason. He knows Mr. Grant
as well, and we've always been aware of Munchkin's existence, though we never wanted to interrupt."
If Munchkin heard what he said, he might not believe him either.
'Three years ago, Mr. Grant learned about us but never contacted us. A few days ago, he sent an email and

He made a pause. "The conditions he stated prompted Mr. Alex to save Munchkin."
"What did he mean by solving his problem?" | sensed that something was wrong.

In other words, Theo had used his custody rights to exchange for shares before making sure that the child was
safe.
The things he said earlier were nothing but lies.
He promised to take care of Munchkin with me. It turned out that he was waiting for this day.

"What about me? What sort of conditions are you going to offer me?"
They probably knew that Theo was not the only guardian from the start. Since they had already operated on
