| held his hand as we strolled around the mall to help with digestion.
While strolling, | saw a children's playground. | went inside to take a look out of curiosity.
I knew that Munchkin was not one to be eager to play here, but I could not resist going in after seeing all the
children his age having fun inside. Only later did | realize that there was a whole other world inside the small
store.
After walking through the sand pit and large toys at the front, | saw many more educational toys. Further ahead,
there were even small robots. There were children of all ages from elementary school to middle school in the
children's playground.
Munchkin was staring straight at it, then he turned to ask me, "Mommy, can | play here?"
"Of course." When | brought him to the service desk to register, the receptionist toldthat there was a reading
area and a coffee area at the side. "Parents can wait over there, and rest assured that your child won't be
allowed out of the store on their own. Feel free to ask our staff members if you have any special requests, but

explained to me.
I nodded with a smile.
| was not worried about Munchkin as he had always been a smart kid, so he would not simply run out by himself.
Moreover, | would not be far away from him either. They must have taken safety into account as the coffee area
was an open place with a wide and unobstructed view of the children's area. | could just look up to see Munchkin
while sitting there sipping on my coffee.
"I'll go play now, Mommy." The little one could no longer hold in his excitement after leaving the service desk, but
he still politely informed me.
"Go on. Don't forget to cover here occasionally to drink water," | reminded him.
"Okay." As soon as he finished speaking, Munchkin ran out in a flash.
| saw him run past the building blocks and straight to the large robot. In the robotics area, there were already a
few older boys
trying to operate it.
There were also a few kids younger than Munchkin who seemed to have
the the robot like a Transformer
as they tried to get it to transform into different modes.
"So here you are. I've been searching all day."
| zoned out while looking at Munchkin until my train of thought was interrupted by that comment.
| turned back to see Ruby standing in front ofin seductive clothes. She sat down right across from me
without waiting for my invitation.
"Weren't you doing just fine at
home? Why did you bring your child
to the office today all of a sudden? The disgust in her eyes made it seem as though she was the

madam of the family while | was the uninvited guest disturbing her.
"Ms. Brook, I'm sure this is none of your business."
| did not think that it was worthwhile explaining to her.
She sneered as if she had foreseen this happening.
"I'm just asking if it's really necessary.
Didn't President Grant tell you? He's very busy with work these days, yet you still want to make him work
overtime. It's detrimental to his health.”
Her coy tone leftspeechless. Did she think that | would forget what had happened in the lobby?
Plus, it did not seem like Theo's health had gotten worse in the past two days.
"If that's the case, why are you still here, Ms. Brook? Shouldn't you hurry up and go back to work? President ads by
Grant asked you to help him solve a problem, not add to his troubles, right?" Pubfuture
