    “You really have no shame, woman! I’m hanging up now, don’t disturb my sleep with stuff like this


    again!


    After the call ended, ra looked towards Alex’s room, her eyes filled with tears.


    She and Alex were about to part ways Alex had never left her side in all these years Now, they were to


    be separated, and it was unbearable for her


    But the reality was something she could not change.


    To keep Alex from being taken away, this was the only path she could take.


    The next morning. ra got up and made breakfast for Alex. It was when the breakfast was served


    that Alex gol up


    “Mama wow, today’s breakfast is really fancy!”

    “I’m d you like it, ra smiled, “You don’t have to go to school today.”


    Alex was surprised, “Why mama? is the kindergarten closed today?”


    “No, a friend of mama’s has invited you over for a while!”


    “Is it Mr Milburn?”


    ra nodded, “Yes. You need to behave yourself when you’re there. Don’t cause him any trouble,


    okay?”


    “Can I refuse?” Alex didn’t ept the invitation right away. “I want to stay here with you! If I go to Mr.


    Milburn’s, I won’t see you for a long time!”


    ra bent down to meet Alex’s gaze


    “Good boy, there’s some issue with mama right now and I can’t take care of you properly! You go to Mr.


    Milburn’s first. Mama promises toe get you soon, okay?”


    “Will you be lonely without me around, mama?”


    “Of course I’ll be lonely! That’s why I promise toe get you soon!”


    Alex said, “But I don’t want to leave you, mama.


    Hearing this, ra could no longer hold back her tears.


    She hugged her son tightly, saying


    “I’m sorry Alex, it’s mama’s fault… I can’t solve the problem, so I have to part with you for now! Can


    you forgive mama?”


    “Mama, don’t cry!” Alex hurriedly wiped ra’s tears, “I love going to Mr. Milburn’s. I won’t miss mama


    at all! Mama, don’t cry! Mr. Milburn is very nice to me and buys me toys. So, mama, don’t worry!”


    The usually naughty Alex suddenly became well–behaved and understanding, making ra feel even


    more guilty.


    She would rather have him throw a tantrum right now, maybe that would make her feel a little better.


    “Mama, does Mr. Milburn like you?”


    The topic suddenly changed, and ra was caught off guard.


    “I think Mr. Milburn is so nice to me because he likes you, mama! Right?”


    ra said, “You’re leaving me speechless! Mama is not a fairy!”


    “In my eyes, you’re a fairy, the most beautiful person in the world!”


    “You’re so sweet!”


    Only after arranging everything for Alex did ra go to work


    She had nned to take a leave, but today was the day she was supposed to register her marriage


    with Emmett, and she couldn’t back out!


    She was also worried that Emmett would suspect something at this time.


    Once ra arrived at the office, Emmett called her into his office.


    “Mr. Melendez.”


    “You werete today” Emmett looked at her and said, “You’re usually neverte.”


    “There was a bit of traffic today!”


    “The roads were clear today, there was no traffic.”


    ra pursed her lips, but before she could say anything, Emmett mmed his hand on the desk.


    “ra‘ How long do you n on keeping this from me?!”
