Sonny was Mr. and Mrs. Brown's true grandson.
When they returned to their rented house, they saw their son and daughter-in-law watching TV. Their expressions did not look good.
“Dad, Mom, didn’t you pick Sonny up?” Hank stood up and turned toward his parents. He asked that question when he did not see his son.
Jessica walked over too. She said, “| organized the smaller room and decorated it into a kid’s room. | bought a lot of toys for Sonny too. Why didn’t you pick him up?” Jessica had received a lock of hair and a note from an unknown woman. On it was written that the hair belonged to her mother. It also asked her to carry out the plan as soon as possible and bring Sonny to crowded places like the zoo or a children’s park.

Jessica was terrified.
She counted on her in-laws to bring Sonny back, but they failed.
How could she put her plan into action? Mr. and Mrs. Brown went to sit on the sofa. Mrs. Brown said, “Liberty didn’t stop us, but she said we could take Sonny only if he agreed to leave with us. If he disagreed, we couldn't force him.
“Naturally, Sonny refused to follow us back.” Hank followed his parents and sat on the sofa. Upon listening to his mother’s words, he said, “Who asked you guys to care for and love Chelsea's children only in the past? You didn’t even help to raise your grandson. That's why Sonny isn’t close to you two.” “Look who's talking. We're Sonny’s grandparents. There's a generation gap. You're his father, but have you fulfilled your responsibility as one? Your relationship with Sonny isn’t deep at all.” Mr. Brown had pent-up anger in his chest and happened to have nowhere to vent it, so he retorted the moment Hank started complaining about him and his wife.
Hank did not dare say another word.
“What do we do now?” Jessica said.
Mrs. Brown looked toward her and snapped, “What can we do? We'll accompany Sonny often from now on. He's still young. We can still nurture our relationship with him.
“You shouldn't overthink when Hank visits Sonny in the future. He's visiting his son, not Liberty. Don't keep getting jealous.” Jessica simply wanted to separate Sonny from Liberty and let that unknown woman get someone to take him away. That way, her mission would be completed, and her family would be safe.
“Mom, | know. Actually, | like Sonny a lot. He’s so pretty and cute. | might even be able to give birth to an adorable child like Sonny in the future if | look at him every day.

“Sonny said that he'll go if his mom is going too. Liberty runs a breakfast business, which only takes up her morning. She can accompany Sonny in the afternoon. If you two really want to take Sonny to the zoo, you can pick Sonny and Liberty up after lunch.” Jessica did not want Liberty to calong.
If Liberty were present, it would not be easy for the people to make their move.
While Hank would probably be careless and sometimes neglectful as a father, Liberty was definitely more careful as the mother.
She would hug Sonny tightly to her in crowded places. It would not be easy to do anything.
“If Liberty comes along, Sonny will refuse to get close to us even more,” Jessica muttered as she glanced at her husband. Her meaning was clear. She did not want Hank and Liberty to have a chance to go out together.
Mr. Brown said, “If you think having Liberty around isn’t good, we'll cwith you tomorrow afternoon. Your mom and | have been living in the city for so long, but we've never gone out to have fun. We can have a family outing and relax.” MMMWWLIIOIfIO&1 MMMWWLIIOIfIO&1 mmMwWLLIOfiflO& 1 MMMWWLIIOIfIO&1 MULL TO £2 E1061 mmMwWLIiIOfiflO&1
