He had a delicate short haircut, wore a woolen jacket, and sat in a wheelchair. There was a blanket covering the

lower half of his body. We were at room temperature, so | could not help but wonder if he would feel warm

dressed like that.

When the man sawapproaching, he politely smiled. "You're early, Mrs. Grant."

"This involves human life. Please understand that | don't have the patience to wait that long." This was the last

bit of my patience.

"Of course, | understand, but this is usually my rest time. You can tell that I'm a patient too, and patients need

their rest. Hence, I, too, seek your understanding."

The waiter served a cup of coffee as he

spoke. | realized there was not a single person around, and even the black-clad man who showedthe way

earlier was gone. In my field of vision, only Alex was sitting from across the table.

I was not even sure if he was Alex Hodds.

"You are-"

"Sigh, let's not mention it first."

Just as | opened my mouth to confirm his identity, the other party stoppedwith a smile.

"Please lethave srest, Mrs. Grant. It's only then will | be able to have the strength to get into business

with you later." The other party picked up his coffee as he said. He turned to look out the window leisurely and

started to admire the view.

My hands were clenched into fists, rubbing

each other. "But you seem quite okay right now. Are you deliberately stalling for time?"

As | did not know the other party well enough, | held back my anger. However, my words had revealed my

impatience.

Even so, the other party was not startled at all. "No matter how okay | am, | still need to rest at this time. This is

already part of my biological clock. Please don't interrupt me, Mrs. Grant. I'll answer your doubts when the time

is up."

The other party stopped talking after that and looked out the window at the hustle and bustle of the city, sipping

his coffee slowly.

| raised my watch. It had been 20 full minutes. | stared at the person from across the table, feeling both anxious

and curious.

| had been too impulsive. | should have given Chief Royce a call when | left the hospital to reconfirm with them.

Perhaps the man sitting from across the table was not Alex. | might have been fooled.

At the thought of that, | got up. The other party spoke while staring out at the city under the blazing sun.

"Are you sure you won't regret leaving now, Mrs. Grant?"

| snickered. "I don't even know who you are. How can | simply believe what you say? Are you going to give me

another excuse 20 minutes later?"

"I'm a punctual man. You're here too early, Mrs. Grant. You can choose not to believe me, of course, but if you

leave today, you might never get to seeor your son again." My heart clenched when he mentioned

Munchkin's name. The place fell into silence once more.

Then, he waved his hand and the man who showedthe way earlier walked up towith a file in his hand.

"Mrs. Grant, you can take a look at this file if you're bored."

| took it with no good grace. Why did this group of people think | would be bored?

| opened the kraft paper file and pulled out the document from it. There were several big words printed on it.

Custody change agreement.

| widened my eyes and stared at the man next to me.

"You can read the agreement content first. Mr. Hodds will explain it in detail later." The man left after saying that.

Sitting in his wheelchair, Alex smiled atonce more.

"You're pregnant, so your body will inevitably feel tired. There are a lot of words in this document, so you should «

probably sit down and take your tto go through it." How did he know that | was pregnant?
