FreeNovelChapter 852 Cutting to the Chase Downstairs, I paused before speaking, "Mr. Arton, there are a few things I feel necessary to discuss with you." This time, Arton looked more deferential and nodded politely, "Please, go ahead." "If you're taking custody of the child, you must lead by example and take good care of him," I stated firmly. Arton nodded solemnly, "We will." His words were concise, and his response was sincere. Satisfied, I continued, "Furthermore, I can inform you that Melanie has escaped prison, and this matter could escalate." I looked at him sternly, "If she comes to you, I hope you won't make any foolish decisions. If you want your child to grow up healthy, you need to separate him from having her as his mother. You must provide him with a good and healthy environment to grow up in.
"I didn't inquire about your character before as we had no interactions. But now, because of Charlie, our paths may cross. If you act inappropriately, I won't stand idly by." I saw him glance down at his own feet, but he didn't refute.
"Every child is born an angel. Don't let your actions turn him into a demon. After all, I know Melanie too well. I hope you understand what I'm saying.

"Is there really no hope for her?" He asked at the end.
"What kind of hope do you think she can have?" I countered.
I genuinely didn't understand the implication behind his words. Did he still have feelings for Melanie? "I-I didn't mean it that way." He stammered.
I didn't press him on what 'that way' meant.
I scrutinized his expression and confidently said, "Yes, the cops are currently searching for her. She probably won't be able to hide for long. hope you won't make any foolish mistakes. Think about your son." BUMS Arton looked atwith emotions that were difficult to decipher. He didn't respond to my words, but I could understand his reaction.
After all, he wasn't a person with normal thoughts. He had survived in harsh conditions for too long, and expecting him to transform instantly wasn't easy.
I didn't say much more. I got into the car with Carol and left Johnson's house. I knew Myra would handle things well.
Back at the company, as I entered the lobby from the underground parking lot, Michelle was still there. This was unexpected.

"Michelle, you're right. I did allow you to continue talking tobecause of our past, as classmates. Otherwise, considering your words last night, do you think I would forgive you?" I stared at her coldly.
