âHadwin Stephenson should be able to find out who did it.â Graceâs eyes fell on Kylaâs belly. âYouâre pregnant, and running a store is hard. Why donât I find someone to help you out? You can take over the store again when your body recovers after you give birth to your baby.â
âNo thanks, Iâm doing okay. And I recently stopped having morning sickness. The babyâs rather obedient and doesnât give me much trouble. My mom can still help me out. If we face any trouble, Iâll definitely ask for your help. Donât worry.â
Kyla said with a smile.
All Grace could say was, âCall me if you need anything.â
âOkay,â answered Kyla.
After leaving Kylaâs place, Grace went to see Lina. She wanted to ask whether they had found any clues regarding the poison injection. However, she was shocked when she reached Lina and Hadwin Stephensonâs mansion.
âWhat⦠What is he doing here?â Grace looked in shock at the little boy sitting on the couch while holding Tina Stephenson.
It was the little boy from the mysterious Hunter family. They had put in a lot of effort trying to find him but it was to no avail. They eventually had to use fake news to lure the child out.
After the incident at the hospital where the child made a deal to marry Tina when she came of age, Grace thought she would only meet the child again in about 20 years. Unexpectedly, the child appeared again so soon, and he appeared in Linaâs mansion.
âHe was here the other day. This is his second visit,â said Lina. Just then, the maid had already prepared the milk. The little boy took it and fed Tina Stephenson naturally.
Grace froze a little. âDoes this kid⦠come here a lot?â
âDo the grown-ups in your family know youâre here?â Grace could not help asking the little boy.
âYes. They said I need to come over to bond with my future bride since Iâve chosen one. Thatâs why Iâm here,â the boy said solemnly.
Grace almost choked. âA seven or eight-year-old child is bonding with a baby who was born less than a month ago?â
However, it seemed that there was nothing wrong with it.
âWhy do you want to marry Tina?â Grace asked in confusion. After all, she thought that such a young child might not know much about love.
âBecause I want to be with Tina forever. But my mother-in-law says we can only be together forever if we get married,â the little boy said.
VIIMPIEL Z]9 The word âmother-in-lawâ made Grace choke again.
Lina immediately said, âHey, didnât I tell you not to call me your mother-in-law? It makes me feel old.
You can call me Aunt Lina first. You can call me your mother-in-law once you and Tina get married!â
With that said, Lina also gave the little boy a âkind and friendlyâ smile.
âYou still look old even if I call you Aunt Lina,â the little boy said rudely Linaâs expression crumbled. âWhat a snarky future son-in-law.â All she was satisfied with this son-in-law was his good looks and how well he treated her daughter. He was so nice that he was like a nanny.
âCall me Aunt! Do you hear me?â The words were almost squeezed out of Linaâs teeth, and the âkind and friendlyâ smile became âhideousâ.
The little boy was smart. After considering it, he finally called out for the babyâs sake, âAunt Lina.â
