Scrambling to Be the Father of His Ex-Wife's Kid novel Chapter 1571

I was prepared for Munchkin to not understand any of this, but I still wanted to remind him.

I wanted him to think it over more thoroughly. After all, even if he studied in Zenon, Theo and I would not leave him here on his own.

Surprisingly, the little guy barely hesitated and said to me happily.

"That's great. I can learn more that way. Won’t you be happy, Mommy?"

I was amused by his cute energy. "Yes, I’m happy. I'm just worried that you'll be afraid.

This was just an excuse.

What I was really worried about was

something that Fred had mentioned to me a long time ago.

If we went to Whaldorf City, we would be exposed. I did not know how many people would jump at the chance to get at our family.

Most of these people were no match for Theo, and they did not dare to take the risk with me either, hence their best target would be Munchkin.

Although Theo and I were extra careful, there was no way to guarantee where these people would find an opening. If they found a loophole and laid their hands on Munchkin, I would not be able to forgive myself.

"Mommy, what are you talking about? I'm a man. I'm not afraid," the little one said as he puffed up his chest, posing like an adult. "Besides, Mommy, you told me before there are difficulties I have to actively face and solve rather than just run from them."

Running away.

Munchkin's words were akin to someone ringing an alarm bell in my head. The bell sounded loud yet distant, sending my thoughts all the way back to a few days ago.
