NovelEnglishChapter 452 "Since you're aware of all this, Ms. Riley, I'd appreciate it if you'd watch your words around my son in the future. No matter what happens, I'll always be Mario's mother. Even if I lose custody, loving and caring for him is both my right and my responsibility as his mom. You really don't need to worry about that—or askfor permission." Lorna arched a brow at that.
Briony turned away, walked around the front of the car, and slid into the driver's seat.
Carol said goodbye to Lorna, then climbed in as well.
The car started up and pulled away from Southcreek Manor.
Lorna turned and walked back inside.

It was the height of summer, but the man was still wearing a black leather glove on his left hand.
"Still not done staring?" Lorna moved to his side and shot him a glance, taking in his sharp, gaunt profile. "She just snapped at me, you know. Mother hen in full force-pretty fierce." "Don't use the kid to get a rise out of her," Stewart replied, his voice cool. "She's been through hell for those children, especially for Mario. Losing him and then getting him back-no one values him more than she does." "If you know how much he means to her, why did you take him in the first place?" Lorna said, unable to resist stirring the pot. "Honestly, after today, I can tell-she absolutely despises you." Stewart pressed his lips into a thin line, saying nothing.
"Stewart, women always know how other women feel," Lorna continued, her brow arched as she eyed him. "Your ex seems calm and gentle, but trustwhen a woman like that decides to cut someone out, not even a herd of wild horses could pull her back. Think carefully, okay? If you go through with this plan, there's no turning back." Stewart gave her a brief, indifferent glance. "I know what I'm doing." Lorna rolled her eyes. "You're hopeless." When Briony got home, she called Dr. Ferdinand right away.
He arrived soon after.
After giving Maa gentle massage, Ferdinand prescribed smedicine to help lower his fever.
Once the medicine was ready, Briony coaxed Mato drink it.
It tasted awful, but Mawas a good kid-he drank it all without complaint.
Not long after, Mastarted to sweat, and the fever finally broke.
With his fever gone, Maperked up considerably. Ever the disciplined child, he pulled out his homework and sat at his little desk to get started.
Ferdinand had already heard about Mario's situation from James.
After more than a month apart, Ferdinand could tell Mahad changed a lot.

"All I want is for him to be healthy and happy. That's enough for me." "Boys need a bit of pressure and guidance, Ferdinand replied, setting his teacup down and looking at her. Now's the custody situati going?" Briony sighed. "I still haven't decided whether to file a lawsuit." Ferdinand then offesed his dark brows, her a gentle smile.
"That means you're actually satisfied how Mario's life is going right the Mario's! content is on novelenglish.net! now, doesn't it?" Briony was taken aback.
"I personally think boys do better with their fathers," Ferdinand added quietly. The content is on m novelenglish.net! At that, Briony looked over at Mario, her brow furrowing.
A week later, Lorna arrived to pick Maup.
Before leaving, she handed Briony an invitation.
"Stewart and I are having our engagement party next Wednesday. Ms. Kensington, you must come."
