Hertha was still shaken, her heart pounding in her chest.

How could she survive if the kids were really gone? Alaric, that unreliable man, why couldn't he ever get his act together? He had the audacity to take the kids away without telling anyone, clearly trying to upset her.

"Ouch, ouch, Hertha, let go..." Alaric winced as he stood up from his chair, hunched over in pain, his face contorted as he pleaded with Hertha.

Hertha had a grip on his ear just like his mother used to do.

Hertha didn't immediately let go, instead, she huffed, "Think you'll do that again?" "Never, never, just let go. Everyone's watching, don't I get any dignity?" Alaric glanced around at the onlookers enjoying the show, feeling even more embarrassed.

"You sneak off with the kids, not caring if my mom and I are dead or alive, and you're worried about your dignity!" The more Hertha thought about it, the tighter she twisted his ear. "Ahhh..." Alaric grimaced in pain.

Kimberly was coming back from a KFC run when she saw Hertha, one hand on her hip, the other twisting Alaric's ear while he bent over, neck stretched, offering no resistance. The bystanders were all chuckling at the scene.

Kimberly hurried over, pulling Hertha away, "Hertha, let him go..." Hertha released her grip and turned to see it was her mother, saying with a pout, "Mom, he....." "I know, lethandle this," Kimberly cut her off, pushing Hertha aside and stepping forward, her face dark with anger as she scolded Alaric, "What's wrong with you, not taking any responsibility! Acting like you're skind of lowlife. I'm glad my daughter didn't marry you what would we have done then?" Kimberly was venting, airing both old and new grievances against Alaric.

She had once hoped to marry Hertha to him, but then he had a child with another woman.

She hadn't settled that score yet, and now he was messing with Hertha's kids. Kimberly was at her breaking point.

Alaric tried to explain with a soothing tone, "Kimberly, listen, it was an accident, I just wanted to take the kids out for something they'd like to eat..." "Shut up, don't callKimberly!" Kimberly snapped. She used to not mind Alaric calling her that, but now it felt like a cruel joke.

Alaric paused, knowing Kimberly was genuinely angry.

Any more attempts at charm would only disappoint her further.

Kimberly glared at him, then turned to pick up the two kids from their seats, one in each arm, and headed for the doon "Con, let's go hwith grandma. Don't go off with strangers anymore. Whatever you want to eat, grandma will buy it for you." Before, Kimberly couldn't have lifted both kids at once; her strength just wasn't there.

But now, fueled by anger and the adrenaline from the shock, all she they could think about was getting the kids away, and she managed to pick them both up effortlessly.

Julian and Helena looked from Kimberly to Hertha, then casto m ve sympathetic glances at Alaric. They were too shocked to speak.

Seeing her mother leaving, Hertha quickly followed, but Alaric stopped her, "Hertha..." X
