| tried my best to look through the hole and saw many people standing outside the ward. The medical staff was
barricaded at the back, surrounded by Ronny and his subordinates.
Slowly, | heard the sound of footsteps coming closer from afar. When the person walked passed the ward, | was

The person who had cwas Theo.

Theo's steps went farther away, and my heart gradually calmed down.
He did not ctodirectly and was still walking forward. Was he going to look for Alex?
Ronny had brought so many people over, and one could tell that Alex was also very nervous about this. Would a

My heart instantly rose to my throat. No, | could not let Theo remain here for long.
If Alex was firm about not letting us go, | would take this opportunity to escape with
Munchkin.
| quickly walked to the dressing room and quickly put on a set of clothes on Munchkin.
"Mommy, are we going back?" Munchkin noticed my stance and looked at me, uncomprehending the situation.

of us to get out of this building since Alex and | were recognized by everyone in this hospital.
Just as | was packing my things, | heard the sound of the door lock turning from the outside. My hands

He obediently covered his eyes with his hat.
My hand gripped the pliers | had used to cut wires just now. Fortunately, | had not returned them.
