On the weekend, when Martha came downstairs for dinner, she saw Jimmy already dressed and sitting at the dining table to eat.
When Jimmy saw his mommy come down, he cocked his head and said with a smile, "Mommy, come and eat."
"OK."
Martha responded with a smile and walked toward the little guy and sat across from him.
Today was a weekend when she should have slept in, but because Jimmy had recently grown taller, he couldn't wear his previous clothes.
That was why Martha was ready to take Jimmy to the mall today and buy him a few more sets of clothes.
The smile on Jimmy's lips hadn't disappeared since he saw his mommy appear.
"Mommy, what kind of clothes are we going to buy today?"
"What kind of clothes do you want?"
Martha did not stop stirring the porridge in her hand and asked in a warm voice.
When the little guy heard this, his eyes lit up and he replied loudly, "I want cool clothes, preferably clothes that highlight my manhood."
The woman sitting across from him heard this, and the smile at the corner of her mouth unconsciously widened.
She looked at her son dotingly and smiled as she responded, "Okay, remember to tell me later which set you like."
Jimmy nodded in satisfaction and buried his head to continue eating.
When the two of them finished eating, they just went out and saw Stefan's car parked at the door.
Soon, the man in the driver's seat stepped down and walked towards them.
Martha watched Stefan get closer and closer to her, her eyebrows knitted slightly, and she looked down at Jimmy holding her hand.
The look was clearly asking Jimmy if he had revealed their whereabouts to Stefan, or why would this man appear here.
Jimmy looked down sheepishly and avoided Martha's eyes.
It was true that he tipped off his daddy, but he didn't know how to tell his mommy.
When Martha saw Jimmy's look, she understood that Jimmy must have said it.
At this time, Stefan stood in front of them, his lips lightly parted, and his dark voice rang out.
"I'll take you to the mall today."
"No need."
Martha indifferently refused the man, her attitude was very distant.
Stefan was not annoyed, but only said in a deep voice, "With your current condition, I don't feel comfortable going out by yourselves."
Two days ago, he was still convinced that someone had done that on purpose.
Therefore, only if he followed the mother and son, he could guarantee the safety of them both.
When Martha heard this, she was speechless for a moment, but still decisively refused, "I will protect Jimmy."
"Let me protect you."
Stefan's eyes darkened, and the hand at his side unconsciously clenched.
Just as his words came out of his mouth, Martha added, "No, I'll hire a bodyguard."
The man smiled and took a sideways glance behind Martha, and after not seeing a bodyguard, a strange look flickered in his eyes.
"Don't you have a bodyguard now? Let me take care of you today."
Martha heard this, her red lips pursed, after that silence, she no longer spoke.
Although she didn't want Stefan to follow her, she was also afraid that she might encounter someone with bad intentions and let Jimmy get hurt.
Just at this time, Jimmy, who was standing next to her, took her hand and shook it gently.
"Mommy, you can accept it for the time being today and let him follow."
Martha's eyebrows were slightly knitted, and her eyes were filled with mixed emotions.
Since returning from Bali, this little one, for some reason, had unconsciously begun to unite with Stefan again.
Jimmy was obviously her son, but like Eden, he lied.
He said he would never forgive Stefan again, but he was still speaking for this man.
Although Martha thought so, but for Jimmy's sake, she got into Stefan's car.
