The Woman From Hell

Chapter 1563



"I understand that the two children really like Lil Potato, but if he's constantly switching between environments, he'll feel like he's being abandoned. After all, he doesn't understand what humans are talking about and won't know that he'll only be staying with one of his owners for a short while."

"It's highly likely that he'll think he's been abandoned by one of his owners when you move him into another environment."

"Is that so....." Munchkin's previously ecstatic expression immediately vanished.

I did not want to be a party pooper either, but when I took into account the condition of the house and my health, it did not seem like a wise choice to adopt a pet.

Moreover, since Tina liked Lil Potato so much, I was tempted to get Munchkin to give up on trying to adopt him.

"How about we let Munchkin adopt Lil Potato? He's always liked animals and was probably reminded of the past when he saw Lil Potato. His affection for Lil Potato is normal. Why don't you adopt Lil Potato so he and Munchkin can be companions?"

Fred took the initiative. Tina's face did not reveal any disappointment, but I was sure she wanted Lil Potato to be her companion too.

I was just about to turn down the offer when I heard Munchkin dashing forth and yelling, "Daddy!"

I turned and stared in shock. I watched as Theo came in through the entrance and walked toward us. How did he know I would be here?

I was still stunned when Theo walked up to me.

"Daddy," Munchkin called out again sweetly.

He walked to Munchkin and caressed his small face gently before walking back to me. The volunteer standing nearby kept staring at him and only stopped when her gaze fell on me.

She looked at Theo and me before turning to look at Fred, seemingly understanding what we had told her just now.

"What's wrong? Why don't you look all that pleased to see me?" Theo joked as he gazed at my face.

"I'm just surprised. How did you know I would be here?"

Did he not follow my wishes yesterday? Why did he appear in front of me today?

"I told Daddy." Munchkin offered up the information.

As he spoke, he squished himself in between myself and Theo. "I saw so many things today. Daddy won't know what I'm talking about at home if I don't get him to take a look himself."

Theo smiled and ruffled Munchkin's hair when he saw the earnest expression on his face.

I knew that that was not the sole reason Theo was here.

"Have you finished everything you needed to take care of? We'll head home first if you're not done yet," I said as I gazed at Theo. He had told me he would be home late this. morning, which probably meant he had an important matter to take care of. I did not know if he had completed all his tasks since he had to return earlier after Munchkin kicked up a fuss.

"Don't worry. Nothing is more important than spending time with you," he said as he wrapped a hand around my waist and turned to look at Fred.

I knew he was trying to assert dominance.

I could also spot a twinge of

annoyance in Fred's eyes. "You're right, Mr. Grant. Quality time with family is one thing that children need most. I find it extremely unworthy to miss out on my child's growth milestones simply because I'm too busy at work."

He latched on to what Theo said and added, "Additionally, I find that as parents, we hold a great

responsibility in spending time with our children and ensuring they feel safe and secure. That way, they'll grow up able to forge their path in life. This is something that can't be achieved by providing material wealth."
