Chapter 715

However, he stopped smiling as frequently as he used t o...

After carrying Munchkin out of the lounge, Liz stood i n my way and spoke in English, which she

was not very fluent in yet, "You clearly have your own family and son, so why are you still showing

up in front of him? If it weren’t for you, I would be the happiest woman alive instead of suffering the

pain of unrequited love now.”

Matthew grabbed her by the arm and said with displeasure, "Shut up and get lost."

Liz turned around to glare at him. "Now you're asking me to get lost? Who was the one who

approached me first? Who was the one who promised to marry me? Have you forgotten all of it?

"You've ruined all my wonderful fantasies of love in these three years. Do you not feel the slightest

guilt in your heart?"

Liz’s hysterical screams frightened Munchkin. He embraced my neck tightly. "When are we going

home, Mommy?”

I patted his head to tell him that we were going home right away.

I was in no position to interfere in Matthew and Liz's relationship. Besides, I had already gotten the

answers to my questions, so there was no point in staying here further.

After leaving Zimmer Corporations, I brought Munchkin to an intermediary company. The woman

assigned to receive me looked to be in her 40s. She saw me holding a child in my arms alone to

look for a house and sighed about how difficult life must be for me. She took me to a good house

and said, "This house has been listed on the internet and many are scrambling to get it. If you like it,

then I'll give it to you instead of someone else."

I looked gratefully at her. "Thank you."

The house was decided, so after signing the contract, I brought Munchkin back to the hotel.

We came out of the elevator and saw Theo standing at the door of the room. Munchkin cried out

with joy," Theo!"

I put him on the floor and he ran toward Theo.

When I approached him and saw the haggard look on his face, I was slightly stunned. "What’s

wrong with you?"

The corner of his mouth was raised. "I'm okay."

He picked Munchkin up from the floor and looked at the gauze wrapped around his head. He asked

with a sullen expression, "How did you injure yourself?"

Before I could answer, Munchkin said, "They talked bad about Mommy, that's why I fought them."

Theo pursed his lips. His pitch-black eyes flashed a cold light, and his voice was low and attractive."

Remember, you can fight but you must not hurt yourself. You must learn how to protect yourself."

Munchkin nodded, finding his words extremely agreeable. "I don’t regret beating them. They

deserve t o be beaten. I just feel really sorry for giving Mommy trouble."

Was there something wrong with both their thinking?

I looked at Theo, feeling slightly speechless. "How can you give him the permission to fight?"

He raised his brows and his eyes. "Sometimes, fists work better than reason. Munchkin is about to

turn five. I’ll find someone to teach him some survival skills."

Should I refuse?

Could someone please give me an answer now?

After entering the room, I told him that I had rented a house. Instead of getting upset, he called

Keith and asked him to come and pick us up.

I had only one piece of luggage. I grabbed it and left.

When we arrived at the rented house, the refrigerator was empty, so I asked Theo to order

takeaway. I planned to tidy up the house before going out to buy some groceries.

None of us talked about Serena because we would all b e unhappy if we talked about her, so why

bother bringing her up?

After we had dinner, Munchkin went to the living room to watch TV whereas Theo pulled me into the

bedroom. He closed the door and held me in a tight embrace.
