Lily still carried serious authority at home.

“Barry.” A gentle voice suddenly sounded beside Barry.

He looked up and saw Mia.

She held a tissue and tenderly wiped his tears.

“You got spanked again?” Her tone was full of heartache. “Why does your mom always hit you?”

Barry sniffed and stayed quiet.

Seeing that, Mia pulled two candies from her pocket and offered them.

Barry had nearly ruined his teeth from sneaking candy before.

Because of that, Lily strictly controlled his sugar intake.

At the sight of the candy, sugar-craving Barry grabbed them without a second thought. “Thank you, Aunt Mia.”

Mia replied, “No need to thank me. I love you the most. It breaks my heart to see you get hit.”

Mia’s feigned concern almost brought Barry to tears.

But then she smoothly shifted the topic to Nina.

“You got spanked today because you gave all your toys to Nina, right? I told you that Nina isn’t a good kid. Look-she came and took every single toy and even got you in trouble.

“Kids like her are called jinxes. You really shouldn’t play with—’

“No! Nina good!” Barry shouted.

Barry was little, but he wasn’t stupid-kids had surprisingly sharp instincts.

He instantly caught that Mia was badmouthing Nina!

He threw the candy on the ground in anger. “I don’t like you anymore, I like Nina.”

With that, he slid off the rocking chair, clutched his sore bottom, and went to find Lily.

When he got back, his dad and mom were hugging.

The same Lily who had been so fierce with him earlier now had her arms around Nathan’s neck, both of them smiling as they whispered to each other.

Lily and Nathan had been childhood sweethearts. Their first love was each other, and from awkward teenage romance to mature marriage, it had always been the two of them.

Even after so many years of marriage, their relationship was still strong.

Seeing them cuddling, Barry pouted, then threw himself into the hug too.

“Sweetie, still mad?” Nathan asked his grumpy son gently. “Your mom didn’t want to hit you. You made her

angry first.”

“Daddy, no.”

Barry got spanked often; he never stayed mad long.

He mumbled, “I don’t like Aunt Mia anymore. She hates Nina. She said mean things about Nina!”

After hearing the complaint, Lily frowned.

Lily had never liked Mia.

She had always found Mia’s personality problematic.

Selfish, short-tempered, deliberately mean to the staff-no empathy at all.

“Barry, stay away from your aunt from now on.” Lily told him plainly, “If she says anything to you, just tell her you’ll report it to me.”

Barry nodded hard. “Okay!”

Without realizing it, Mia had successfully made her sister and brother dislike her even more.

Now, even Lily inwardly rejected her completely.

Oblivious to the danger, Mia continued sticking close to Jane.

Meanwhile, back at the Graham Residence, Nina-who had also gotten her chubby hand spanked by Amelia-was tearfully showing it off to everyone in the house.

“Mommy hit. Hit lots!”

William took her tiny hand and gently blew on it, cooing the whole time, “Nina no cry. Tomorrow, I’ll take you to the mall, okay? We’ll buy lots of things.”

The Graham family usually had brands deliver clothes and shoes straight to the door.

But Nina loved going to the mall.

There were play areas full of kids and toy stores.

She adored shopping trips!

At the promise of the mall tomorrow, Nina’s teary eyes brightened, and she nodded. “Grandpa, buy toys!”

William beamed. “Sure! We’ll buy tons and tons of toys.”

William successfully cheered her up.

Yet right before bedtime, Nina lifted her little hand again.

She stared at it and said, “Mommy hit.”

Amelia sighed, “You’ve been going on about it forever. Still not done?”

Nina sniffed, looking ready to get upset again.

Just as another meltdown loomed, Benjamin walked in with bedtime milk.

He said it was for Nina.

But before he even spoke to her, he started talking to Amelia first.
