Father Manoban emotionally tapped his walking stick on the floor and roared, "You bastard, what are you trying to say? You want to take Leo away? I dare you!"

Lisa remained cool and pointed out, "Father, Leo is your grandson, but he's my son too."

Father Manoban spoke in a rush intimidatingly, "I'm your old man! You've been charmed over your head by this woman! The only way for you to dare take Leo away today is to walk over my dead body!"

Lisa replied, "If you must use your life to threaten me, I have nothing to say. But I insist on taking Leo with me today."

Suddenly, the atmosphere between the father and son became intense. Everyone was silent and no one dared to say anything.

At this moment, Mother Manoban was also completely on her husband's side. "Lisa, even if you're blaming us for not taking care of Leo well enough, this time was truly an accident. We are Leo's grandparents. Is there anyone else who would treat him better than we do? You would rather believe a woman you have just recently met than your own biological parents?"

"This has nothing to do with her."

What Father Manoban could not stand most was his son's protective behavior over that woman. He was extremely mad now and did not care that there were many others present. He lost control and roared, "Have you forgotten what happened two years ago? Have you forgotten how Leo became like this? It was such a painful lesson. Is once not enough? How dare you believe a woman like this?! You are just...just..."

Mother Manoban quickly went to hold him up when she saw that her husband was getting increasingly agitated, "Lisa, please understand how your father and I feel. We are just too afraid!"

Lisa squinted slightly and tried to explain, "I understand how you feel and I swear with my life that something like that will not happen for the second time. She's different. Ever since we have met, she has only nothing but love for Leo. I'm sure you are also aware of the changes in Leo ever since he met her."

However, the two old Manobans were too stubborn, especially when the past incident was brought up. When they heard Lisa's words, they were only momentarily persuaded for a few seconds before they went back to their headstrong opinions. No matter what Lisa said at that moment would be considered by them; they just wouldn't let Lisa take him away.

Lisa wore a dark mask on his face. Even though he did not want to, he knew that it was best to suffer for the short term rather than in the long term. He knew it would hurt them but he still spat it out anyway, "The scariest thing is not that Leo will be hurt by others, but by the ones closest to him in the name of love!"

"You..." Father Manoban's face instantly stiffened, and his body shook with rage when he heard this.

His son's words were akin to a huge rock bearing upon his heart. Even though he had always acted in Leo's best interests since he was strictly kept at the old residence, all he had ever received was harm, and last night he almost...

What followed Lisa's words was pin-drop silence in the living room, and the argument was a stalemate...

Now, the one who was in the most awkward position was Jennie. She knew that as long as she was here, they had many things that could not be said, so even though she did not want to leave the little bun, she still had to consider leaving first and letting the three family members have a proper discussion.

Due to the loud voices and tension in the air, the little bun who lay on Lisa's shoulders started to frown and his eyelashes fluttered before he slowly opened his eyes...

Jennie was standing behind Lisa and as soon as the little bun opened his eyes, he saw her.

Because the little guy had just woken up, he had an extremely cute sleepy look on his face. He blinked a few times and then when he saw Jennie, his gaze did not move away from her.

He thought his sight had failed him, so the little guy rubbed his eyes with his soft fists. Then, he opened up his short arms towards Jennie's direction without hesitation.

In the next moment, the quiet air was filled with a soft and slightly grainy voice, "Hug..."
