Scrambling to Be the Father of His Ex-Wife's Kid novel Chapter 1593

I thought Munchkin was joking and did not take him seriously. Instead, I went along with him and said jokingly, "Have Grandma and Grandpa agreed to let you stay here? After all, this is their home."

Munchkin was just a child and could not tell that I was joking. Instead, he turned to Petra and asked her solemnly, "Grandma, can I stay here?”

Petra and Grayson had gone through so much during their earlier years and went through hardships to finally get together. Then, they managed to find me. Their grandson, Munchkin, was another surprise they were not expecting. They were as happy as could be.

If it were not for everything that had happened after that, they would never have been able to let Munchkin leave.

Now, Munchkin was saying he wanted to come back. That was a cause of celebration for Petra, and there was no way she would turn him down.

"Of course. If you stay here, I'll make you your favorite milkshakes every day." Petra made an enticing offer.

When Munchkin heard that, he immediately replied enthusiastically," Thank you, Grandma."

The look in his eyes was not only gleeful but also mocking when he then turned to look at me. "Did you hear that, Mommy? Grandma immediately said I could stay here."

I lowered my eyes and gave him a slightly disdainful look. “Fine, fine. You can stay here, then. I'll go home with your dad.'

I pretended to be angry while I spoke. He had such a gleeful look on his face, and it was getting increasingly difficult to win an argument against him.

However, I also knew that Munchkin was relatively smarter and well-behaved than other kids his age, which made it understandable why he was so popular.

Moreover, Petra and Grayson loved and treated him like he was truly their biological grandson. It was only normal that they would tend to spoil him.

Naturally, I did not take all this to heart.

It was getting late and thus almost time for us to leave. Before leaving, I went into the kitchen to check if there was anything that needed replenishing and also if there were any 'prohibited goods'.

Grayson’s blood sugar had been on the higher end when he went for a check-up. Despite Petra's reminders, he would still hide biscuits and other treats in areas of the kitchen that were higher up.
