Chapter 1536
However, | realized | got fooled by Theo when | peeked my head out behind the door.
Theo and Munchkin were sitting on the sofa, watching the TV.
There was no noise because Theo had taught Munchkin how to use the wireless headphones connected to the
TV. That was why the living room was so quiet!
| was a little annoyed. | thought Theo would be strict with him just now, but | did not expect him to indulge
Munchkin in watching TV shows.
| stomped toward the TV and stood in front of them with my hands resting on my hips. | gave them an angry
stare.
"Oh my, it's Mommy!" Munchkin cried. He was so shocked that he immediately took off the headphones, turned
around, and scurried toward his bedroom.
| stepped forward, about to catch up with his pace, but Theo stopped me.

Haven't you realized that? That little kid pretended to be asleep to lie to you this morning just to buy more time
for himself to watch TV."
| struggled and yelled at him, but Theo did not intend to letgo.
"I know." Not only was he not surprised, but there was also a hint of smugness in his voice as he answered me.
"You know?!" | turned around and looked at Theo.
"Why didn't you stop him since you knew? And you let him spend the whole morning watching TV?"
| recalled that Theo did not cout after he entered my room.
I initially thought that he was being fooled. It turned out that he found out about it earlier and let it slide.
How could a parent do that?
Theo turnedaround and put his hands on my waist, refusing to letleave his side.
"But | don't think it's something bad
for him. Munchkin watches
discovery channel shows. Besides sof them have educational content. He enjoys watching those shows.
Isn't it a good chance to let him learn?"
Theo said it in a priggish manner.
"But there are other ways for him to be learning. Watching too much TV is bad for his eyesight."
"Don't worry. He promisedthat he's not going to watch TV for the rest of the day."
| sneered and replied, "You're being fooled again."
That little kid always said that towhen he was in the hospital. However, he still watched it after he returned
from a walk.
1 could not convince him.
However, it was because Munchkin
was still in the hospital back them. 1 did not want him to be too upset. Besides, he had nothing better to do. That
was why | let him get away with it.
Now that he was back home, I could not let him do whatever he wanted.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"No. Munchkin won't lie to me," Theo said with a serious voice. Still, | had already figured out that it was the
parental love that was messing with his head.
For a moment, | did not know if it was Munchkin being clever or Theo being childish. How could Theo believe
what Munchkin said?
Before | could speak, Munchkin
opened his bedroom door, peeked his little head out behind the door, and said Mommy, it's true. Daddy
promisedhe'll bringto the marine park this afternoon. And we'll be going out for dinner tonight. That's
why | won't have the chance to watch TV anymore for today."
After that, he returned to his bedroom and closed the door. It was as though he was afraid that | would charge
toward his bedroom door in a second.
| got even more annoyed when | heard that, but Theo's strong hands were holdingtight on the waist. I could
not break free.
"Munchkin, this week..."

Before | could finish my sentence, Theo's lips were already pressing against mine.
