She and Stefan were already divorced and it was simply not appropriate for them to appear in public together again.
If they appeared together and were caught by the media, it would only cause another mighty uproar on the Internet.
So, in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, it was better not to appear together.
Stefan saw a hint of impatience in the eyes of the woman in front of him, and understood what she was thinking.
He didn't know what to say, but he could only look at the child that Martha was holding in her arms.
Jimmy met the eyes of the man in the driver's seat, his little head tilted to the right, pursed his lips and did not speak.
He hadn't forgiven his foolish daddy yet, so why did his daddy look at him that way?
His daddy looked at him so blatantly. If his mommy saw it, she would take him as a traitor, no doubt.
His daddy was really stupid, even wanting to drag him down!
Stefan saw this look on his son's face and couldn't help but be a little speechless.
This little guy really couldn't be relied on, and he didn't even help him out at the critical moment.
This time, Martha was already determined not to eat lunch with him.
The man's thin lips were pursed into a line; he had no idea how to break the current deadlock.
Finally, it was Martha who broke the silence.
"Please, Jimmy and I will go back by ourselves."
With that, Martha carried Jimmy and prepared to get out of the car and take a cab home by herself.
Her fair fingers were just touching the door handle when Stefan's somewhat impatient voice came out from his thin lips.
"You can't get out of the car."
Martha's eyebrows were knitted slightly and she looked at the man in the driver's seat with some confusion and a clear question in her eyes.
Stefan's head was running fast and he finally gave an answer that he thought was very reasonable.
"Now in this situation, I'm not comfortable with you and Jimmy going in the car. If you want to go back, I'll give you a ride back to the Doyle Manor."
Although he was a little disappointed not to be able to have lunch with Martha, but compared to the safety of their mother and son, eating lunch or not was nothing.
He thought this, and his original loss of emotion was eased.
When Martha heard this, she hesitated for a long time, but withdrew her hand and sat in her seat without moving.
For the sake of the child's safety, it would be better to let Stefan take them back.
She thought of this and lowered her eyes, acquiescing to Stefan's words.
