Chapter 210 Throw It Away!

"I'll address you as Wyatt from now on." "Um, I suppose that's fine." After that, Wyatt led her away as if he were attending to a queen. Meanwhile, back in Fowler Residence.

Just when Joaquin wanted to take a break after studying for a while, he saw Jameson running toward him as if eager to show him a piece of treasure. "Jojo, look! I've got some snacks!" Upon checking it out, Joaquin realized he was holding a piece of chocolate. "I wanted to save this up, so I'll take a huge chunk, but I'll make sure to give you a small piece!" With that, he was ready to break the chocolate. "No thanks. You can have it all for yourself." Joaquin wasn't interested in those kinds of stuff. "Really? Yippee!"

However, just when Jameson was about to pop the chocolate in his mouth, Joaquin caught his hand in alarm. "Where did you get it from?" Ever since Jameson got hospitalized after having an upset stomach, Joaquin was more wary of what his brother ate.

"Mom gave it to me. She dropped by, and she's spending time with Grandma downstairs." After that, Jameson was about to pop the chocolate into his mouth again.

However, Joaquin snatched the chocolate away from him. "It's already expired!" Then, he threw it into the bin. Seeing that his chocolate was binned in front of him, Jameson was reasonably not too happy about it. "Why did you throw it away?"

"It's expired, so you can't eat it anymore." Joaquin stared at his brother in all seriousness.

"But nothing seemed wrong with it when I checked earlier." Tilting his head, Jameson didn't seem at all convinced.

"You weren't looking close enough." Not allowing any arguments, Joaquin added, "Remember to hand any snacks that Mom gives you to me so that I can check them."

"Why?" Tilting his head, Jameson stared at his brother in confusion. In the meantime, Meredith halted her movements while she was going up the stairs to eavesdrop on their conversation.

"Um... It's because she's a celebrity who is busy at work, so she might not notice that the snacks she gave you had expired. However, remember not to tell her any of these, as she'll feel sad. Do you understand?"

Jameson nodded his head despite not fully understanding the situation. "Okay, I get it. But my chocolate..."

"You can tell Dad that you miss Miss Yard so that he'll bring us to her. Then, you'll get to eat a lot of snacks!"

"You're right!" Jameson was quick to recover from his low spirits over losing his chocolate.

"Okay, you can go play now."

"Alright!" After Jameson ran off happily, Joaquin turned to unlid the bin before digging through it to look for the piece of chocolate he discarded.

"What are you looking for?" Without his knowledge, Meredith already walked up to him, which almost scared him senseless. Crouching down beside him, she stared into his eyes with a steely gaze. Without ever expecting Joaquin to doubt her, she realized she'd underestimated how shrewd and observant he could be despite his age. She recalled that Joaquin spoke to Pierre about something back when Jameson was hospitalized, and it was after that that Pierre's attitude toward her underwent a drastic change. Oh, my dear son, how dare you try to undermine me!

"I-It's nothing. I lost something."

"What have you lost?" Meredith looked at him with a smile and a seemingly omniscient look in her eyes.

"I don't think it's here, so I'll go check somewhere else." Joaquin was ready to leave, but Meredith caught hold of his arms.

After tidying his clothes, she caressed his face as she spoke. "Jojo, I know I can't always be with you because of my identity, which is why you've distanced me. However, you're both my sons whom I carried within me for nine months before giving birth to, so I'll love you no matter what happens."
