mommy:
Byron recognized that tone-his son was being rebellious. He sighed, feeling a mix of frustration and empathy.
"Alright, I'll take you to see her tomorrow. How does that sound?"
"I want Mommy now!" Theo cried, his little eyes watery. "It feels awful if | don't see her! What if she runs away
with someone else? You made her mad, and she kicked you out! Why should | stay here with you? It's cold and
miserable!" Byron's heart sank at Theo's words. 'What does he mean by making Maeve mad and getting kicked
out? Wasn't it Maeve who upset me?*
"Alright, enough with the tears. What do you want?" Byron rubbed his temples, feeling a headache coming on. If
Theo wasn't his kid, he might have lost his patience by now.
"I wanna see Mommy right now! If | don't see her, I'll just die! Theo threw a little tantrum, flailing around in

"Can this kid really not handle being away from his mom for even a day? Byron thought, shaking his head at the
tic display
With a mix of frustration and helplessness, he carried Theo downstairs. "Butler, get the car ready," he ordered.

Hearing that, Theo's face lit up, and a cheeky grin appeared on his face. The painful pinch and little act were
totally worth it if it meant he could get sroasted beef.
Half an hour later, they arrived at the Retro Apartment. Byron rang the doorbell twice, and Maeve opened the
door, her expression shifting from confusion to surprise when she saw them standing there. "You guys-" Byron's
face was all stone as he mudged Theo forward. "This kid been crying for you. | can't get him to calm down. You
handle it."
Theo, who was leaning against his leg, didn't think much of it at first, but after hearing what he said, she
suddenly felt ashamed. Her small body stood there coyly, and the tips of her cars turned red.
Maeve was shocked. It wasn't because Theo, who never cried, was crying, but more about what had gone down
at Byron's place
"Hey, buddy, what's wrong? Did someone hurt you?" she asked, squatting down to meet his gaze, her heart
aching for him. "Don't worry: just tell me, and Mommy will take care of it!
She shot a glare at Byron, and he couldn't help but laugh a little "You really think I hurt him?"
"Even if you didn't, you're still responsible for him getting picked on in your own house!" Maeve fired back,
leaving Byron a bit speechless.
"Mommy. I'm hungry. | want food," Theo blurted out. Too shy to admit he was just putting on a show, he quickly
changed the topic.
Maeve didn't push it. She led him inside, saying. "I made a ton of your favorite roasted beef tonight. Good thing
you're back, or we'd have leftovers for days."
Out of the corner of her eye, she noticed Byron slipping through the door too. She couldn't help but ask, "Why
are you coming in?"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe had clearly said he wanted to cut ties with her.
Byron shot her an indifferent glance. "You said you can't finish it so | figured I'd help lighten the load."
Theo wanted to shout that he could handle it all by himself, but since Byron had done a good job tonight-
especially sending that weird woman away-he kept quiet and let it go. When Will heard the sound, she quickly
ducked into the room, avoiding the dining area altogether.
Byron raised an eyebrow at the bowl and fork neatly placed on the table.
Theo's eating habits were starting to mirror Will's more and more. He was becoming picky, refusing bitter gourds
and green peppers, even wanting to pick out the chopped carrots.
Thinking about it made Byron glance at Theo, who was already at the table, munching away with a small poon.
His eyebrows twitched. If it weren't for the fact that Theo still looked like his usual self, Byron might have thought
his son's soul. had been swapped with someone else's.
"That can't be right. Byron narrowed his eyes and shot Theo a cold stare. "Will, what did you just call Maeve?"
"Mommy, Theo replied without missing a beat.
"You used to call her 'mom, didn't you?" Byron tapped his fingers on the table, his tone sharp.
Maeve immediately caught on, and her heart skipped a beat. Byron was meticulous-he had even pick up on
something as simple as how Theo addressed her.
