Chapter 155

Anastasia’s words seemed to hit Leo’s nerve, so he immediately retorted, “Of course she’s my

daughter, Ms. Jewell, how could you say something like that?”

Leo’s reaction was beyond Anastasia’s expectation. “I mean…”

“I’m not gonna let you adopt Pattie. Keep your distance from my daughter” Leo rejected her bluntly,

“How I raise my kid is my business. You don’t get to meddle. If you want a kid, have one yourself.”

With that, Leo got in his car and drove off to the hospital.

After Pattie was taken away by Herman, Penny’s son fell sick and was holed up in the hospital, with a

fever that was not backing down. Leo was in a state of panic. He remembered someone once said that

his son’s arrival to this world was all thanks to Pattie, only with Pattie around, his son would be safe. So

Leo rushed to pick up Pattie,

Penny initially disagreed, feeling as if she finally got rid of a headache, but considering her son, she

had no choice but to let Leo take Pattie back.

Sure enough, as soon as Leo brought Pattie back to the hospital, within an hour, his son’s fever broke

Leo asked Pattie to watch over his son in the ward, and he dragged Penny outside for a talk. “How

many times have I told you. Be nice to Pattie. Why did you hit her again? If this continues, she might

really leave, and what will happen to our son then?”

Leo never liked Penny hitting Pattie. Now seizing the moment, he decided to give her a piece of his

mind.

Penny pouted, “This kid’s got some luck. I feel like she’s brought bad luck to our son.”

“You just don’t believe what that person said. We didn’t have a child for so many years, but after

adopting Pattie, we had a son. That person even said, our son is a blessing from Pattie, and their fates

are intertwined.”

“Fine. Penny said, annoyed, “I’ll try to hit her less.”

Leo said, “After our son is discharged, let’s move.”

“Why? We’re living fine here, moving is a hassle.”

‘Ms. Jewell has taken a liking to Pattie; she even told me she wants to adopt her, Leo, “I’m worried if

this goes on, it might lead to problems. You always hit Pattie, she’s this old and hasn’t gone to school

yet, and the neighborhood’s buzzing. saying she’s not our biological child.”

“People can say whatever they want, I can’t control them, but moving, that’s not happening.”

Penny was adamant and then she had a sudden idea. “You mentioned Ms. Jewell wants to adopt

Pattie. Since she likes Pattie so much, let her pay for Pattie’s expenses, not just all talk.”

Leo sighed, “We have to send Pattie to school.”

“If she’s willing to pay, I’ll let Pattie go to school. As for me, I’m not paying, I have to save for my son.”

Penny pushed Leo away, “Our son’s fever broke. You take that little girl back. I feel annoyed just

looking at her.”

Leo had no choice but to take Pattie back. On the way back, he tentatively asked Pattie, “Pattie, what

do you think of Ms. Jewell?”

“She’s nice,” Pattie replied softly.

“Do you want to live with her?”

Pattie lowered her head and said nothing.

Leo said, “Pattie, you, Mom, and I are all family. Your mom is just tired from taking care of your brother,

that’s why she’s cranky. Just try not to annoy her, and I’ll try my best to let you go to school,”

“Dad, I understand,” Pattie said maturely. “I’ll help with housework, take care of my brother, and not

make mom angry.”

“Good girl.” Leo smiled. He also noticed Pattie talked more after living with Anastasia for two days.

“You must be hungry. I’ll take you for a burger. Your mom’s not around, and it’s our little secret. You

can’t tell your mom okay?”

Pattie’s eyes up, and she nodded. “Okay.”
