The Woman From Hell
Chapter 1596

Chapter 1596



It was not a problem to stay in Petra and Grayson's house for some time. If he truly loved spending time with his grandparents, we would respect the choice he made.

However, if he made such a choice because of us, then it would be out of the question.

"But Mommy..." Munchkin lifted his head seriously and stared at me with his bright little eyes.

"Mommy, I've watched a lot of documentaries. It's difficult for Daddy and Mommy to take care of a newborn baby. I'll still have to go to school. I'll be troubling you if I stay here. I should head to Grandpa and Grandma's house for the time being. I can keep them company and relieve your burden at the same time...' "Munchkin!" My tone suddenly became serious. I could not help but suppress my emotions after realizing that I might scare him off.

"Remember that you'll never be a trouble for this family," I told him.

I held back my tears as Cecilia came into my mind.

Munchkin and Cecilia were the same. They were willing to make sacrifices for me.

Cecilia's death had already made me regret it. If I had to spell it out, I was the one who had to ask for her forgiveness. I was the one who owed Cecilia and Munchkin a favor.

However, Munchkin was still showing consideration for my days ahead.

I did not want to mention what had happened back then in front of Munchkin, so I swallowed my tears back and squatted down in front of the bed. "Munchkin, listen to me. You're right. We're going to be busier after this. Daddy and Mommy will have a lot of things to do, but regardless of work or taking care of you and the baby, we won't leave you alone,"

I grabbed his shoulders.

"Because we're a family. Families stay together no matter what difficulties they face. Next, Daddy will have a new project to deal with at work, and I have to start learning how to take care of a baby. You'll be going to school. This is a new chapter for all our lives," said.

Munchkin was moved.

"In this new chapter, I'd like everyone in our family to be present. I learned from a mistake the last time that as long as we stick together as a

family, nothing can stop us. It's just like how we couldn't get ourselves out of the hospital the last time. But Daddy refused to give up and he eventually came back to rescue us, right?"

The little kid looked at me and nodded. Big tears rolled down his cheek as he said, "I thought things would be easier for Daddy and Mommy if I stayed at Grandpa and Grandma's place."

I touched his little nose and replied, "Silly boy. How could I be willing to part with you? You're my one and only precious child."

I held him in my arms. Munchkin had already become an inseparable part of my life.

As I tried to lighten up the air of melancholy that surrounded us, I continued to say, "Besides, you've thought things through, didn't you? Everyone in our family will have our own things to do. Tell me, if you're not around, who's going to help Daddy to look words up in the dictionary? And who's going to help me prepare breakfast?"

I deliberately made it sound like Munchkin was a little servant of ours.

The little kid was not mad even after he heard me saying that. He tilted his head, looked at me with a bitter expression on his face, and said, "Fine, but I'm worried that I might not be able to finish my homework."

"Don't worry. Daddy and Mommy might not be able to finish our homework too." I put a bitter expression on my face as well.

No one knew what would happen in the future, but having a family meant having a strong and solid pillar of support to back us up. Thus, there was nothing to worry about.
