"That's right."

The little guy did not even hesitate before he answered, and that gave Theo and me a shock.

As the car pulled to a stop in front of the mansion, Theo and I stared at each other. We were at a loss as to what we should say.

Munchkin had already happily bounded out of the car and dashed back into his

room.

Theo looked at me. "Did he mention anything before coming to Whaldorf City? For example, did he ever say he didn't want to live with us?"

I shook my head. "No, he didn't. Besides, Munchkin said he wanted to spend time with us.

I was beginning to worry.

A little while later, I walked over to Munchkin's room and saw the little guy sitting at his desk and reading the books we bought today.

Besides the one he was currently holding, he had stacked all the other books beside him neatly. One could tell that these books were very precious to him.

Munchkin closed his book when he saw me coming in. "Mommy."

"Munchkin, what are you doing?"

"I'm reading, Mommy. I've already finished unpacking. When will our things at Zenon be moved here?"

I smiled as I sat down on the side of his bed. "Soon. Daddy has asked Larson to help us take care of it," I replied half-heartedly. After all, that was not the main reason I came in.

"Munchkin, I have a few things I would like to discuss with you regarding your schooling. Can we do that?"

"What questions do you have, Mommy?" The little guy did not seem afraid. Instead, he sounded curious about the questions I would ask him.

"Munchkin, I remember you previously said you wanted to come to Whaldorf City so you could spend time with me and Daddy. So, why do you want to stay with Grandma and Grandpa now?"

I did not want him to misunderstand

me. Thus, I hurriedly added, "I know that you're a good kid, but Grandma and Grandpa are old now, which means they won't have as much energy to take care of you. Besides, we can always visit them during weekends if you want to spend time with them."

The little guy had a slight smile on his face when I finished speaking. "Mommy, are you worried that I'll never return home after I'm gone?"

I froze when I heard that question. Indeed, I did have that concern earlier when he said he wanted to leave.

"Mommy, know that you and Daddy

blame yourselves for what

happened the last time and are

reluctant to allow me to leave you again. But don't worry, I'll protect myself in the future."

"Besides, I'm surrounded by so many people who love me. They'll protect me too."

I knew he meant Petra and Grayson.

"Also, the baby will be born soon. You'll be even busier after that. I don't want to distract you guys."

My heart twinged in pain when I heard that. Although a load had been taken off my mind, my chest immediately felt as if it had been stabbed because of how understanding Munchkin was.

That was what he had been worried about.

He was worried about my and Theo's child as the baby would be arriving in this world soon.

I patted the space next to me and invited Munchkin to sit down next to me.

I gazed at Munchkin's young face and said solemnly, "Munchkin, remember this. No matter what, we'll always be a family. That's what I've always told you. You'll always be a part of this family, and families don't live separate from each other."

I did not mention anything about blood relations or genes. These had been repeated so many times that I no longer saw the need to do it.

Now, it did not matter what Munchkin was attempting to be considerate about because I would never allow him to think of those things.
