PopularNovelRonny shook his head. "We have no conditions."
I was a little stunned.
"In fact, we don't intend to make any deals with you." Ronny explained, "It's because we know you'll never hand
over the custody to us."
"Why did you approachwith conditions earlier then?"
They were clearly the ones who toldto go to a cafe and forcedto make decisions with Munchkin's life.
"That was Mr. Grant's idea."
Ronny did not explain further, but | already understood.
Yeah, why was | such a fool? Theo had already planned everything and kept it fromfor so long. How could he
expose himself at the very last moment? "Why are you tellingthese things now?"
"Mr. Hodds reminded us to be frank with you and tell you everything without reservation."

| sneered. Was this ssort of trick? Not wanting to listen further, | got up. "That's enough. | know enough. I'm
going back first."
Seeing this, Ronny quickly got up. "Mrs. Grant, you're not familiar with the place. I'll cwith you."
"No, | want to walk alone."
Ronny was compliant. After hearing what | said, he did not followanymore.
In the end, I chuckled. "Also, addressas
Ms. Lane next time."
| felt a hint of disappointment, but more of it was rage. | never knew things would turn out this way.
| walked out of the cafe and looked at the lights next to me. Everything had becso cold.
Munchkin was such an adorable child. He was always around Theo. Even | thought we were a family.
The blood that flowed in our veins was impossible to change, but human emotions were real and they existed.
Why was Theo indifferent to these things?
| gazed around at the prosperous surroundings. Even though we were far from the city, this place was so
prosperous it was like we were in the city center. It was obvious how much money the Hodds had invested here.
I did not know much about Hodds Corporation, but from what Ronny was saying, this piece of property was just a
piece of private property that Alex owned. To put it bluntly, the buildings were built just for fun. It was clear that
Theo had earned a substantial amount from the eight percent shares.
There was a breeze. | saw a fruit store not far away selling strawberries, and my mind flashed back to the tin
Zenon where Munchkin and | plucked strawberries together on the tiny balcony. We were so free at the time.
| took a deep breath and made a silent decision in my heart to not hand over Munchkin's custody. | would take
him away when he recovered.
Maybe it was because | was used to Theo's way of doing things, | realized | was no longer breaking down like |
used to.
| chuckled bitterly, but it was this sense of familiarity that madefeel how pathetic | was.
When | was hurrying back to the hospital, | heard a commotion from afar.

| saw Theo's car at the entrance of the hospital even from a long distance away.
He still had gauze wrapped around him. In front of him, Keith was negotiating with a group of people.
"Please leave, Mr. Grant. Mr. Hodds didn't send you an invitation. You're considered trespassing right now. If the
police come, then luck will certainly not be on your side.
Please don't make things difficult for us."
The other party reminded him kindly.
| had a feeling that if he and Keith continued to stay there, then the man standing in front of them would not go
easy on them.
Only Theo did not say anything and merely stood at the door with his head slightly raised.
Keith put on a non-negotiable expression." Mrs. Grant is still in there. Bring her out and we'll leave immediately."
| felt a stabbing pain in my heart when 1 heard him say 'Mrs. Grant’.
Munchkin was still in there too. He was already here yet never even thought of visiting him.
