Aiden crawled along, crying. “I don’t want to go. I won’t go.”

There were people all around. Even though it was getting dark, this, strangers just assumed he was a mischievous child, careless

any were still there to enjoy the park. Seeing Aiden like running to a dangerous place, very insensible.

However, Aiden felt he had no choice. This was the only way to buy some time..

“Oh. Lord, that thing is about to fall apart,” a staff member mutused, their main concern being the child’s safety. They watched the shaking tracks with mounting fear.

The tracks were being repaired due to existing issues, and while they had cordoned off the area with yellow tape, a child could easily step over it. No one anticipated a kid running toward it. It was a lapse in judgment.

Ashley, seeing Aiden refusing to come down, raised a branch to poke him. The staff didn’t know whether to intervene or not, unsure if the woman was trying to harm the child.

Valerie received a message from the staff that the person they were looking for might be in the area. She rushed over and saw Ashley yelling hysterically. Looking up, she spotted Aiden’s small figure, teetering precariously above.

Her heart clenched. “Aiden!”

Aiden had climbed onto the track above. Hearing the voice, he looked down and finally saw Valerie. His little face crumpled with relief and distress, “Aunt Valerie… Aunt Valerie…

His tightly wound nerves gave way, and tears began to fall, each one piercing Valerie’s heart.

As if on cue, the track suddenly made a loud clanging noise. A screw fell off, and the track started shaking, terrifying Aiden into stillness. He clung to it, pale with fear, and began to cry. “Aurit Valerie, help me! Please help me! I can’t get down.”

Ashley, seeing Valerie arrive, was initially flustered but relaxed again when she saw Valerie was alone.

Aiden was calling for help, and she watched with a sense of satisfaction. “You brat, this is what you get for defying me, for not listening. It would serve you right if you broke your leg falling down. See if you dare to climb up there again next time

The onlookers nearby were all shocked.

“How can this woman be like this? Is he the real mother? How could a mother be so cruel to her son?”

“Yes, she must be a stepmother.”

“That explains it. I should have called the police from the begining”

Ashley glared. “What’s it to you? Mind your own business and get lost.”

Then she turned to Valerie. “Valerie, I’m warning you. Aiden is my child. This is my family’s business, and it has nothing to do with you. Stay out of it, or I’ll hit you too.”

After saying that, Ashley raised the branch again, forcing Aiden to hurry down. The onlookers quickly took a few steps back. not daring to approach. This must be a crazy woman, too crazy they wondered.

Valerie’s face darkened, and she stepped forward to snatch the branch and snapped it in two, throwing it into the bushes. “I’m warning you, Ashley. If anything happens to Aiden, I will not let you go.”

“It’s none of your business. I’m educating my son. What’s it to you? Stop meddling. My family was broken up by you. keep nagging, watch out. I’ll haunt you for life and make your life miserable too.”

Ashley completely disregarded Valerie. After saying that, she actually rolled up her sleeves and was about to slap Valerie in the face. Her action was sudden, and Valerie didn’t react in time intil a force pushed Valerie away, and then there was a crisp. slap sound.

“Julian.” It turned out that Julian had also arrived, and Ashley’s slap hit Julian’s face.

Ashley’s hand suddenly trembled. She was stared at by Julian’s angry eyes, finally feeling guilty Julian’s check was burning. and at this time, he didn’t care about anything else. He grabbed Ashley and gritted his teeth, every word seeming to jump out from between his teeth. “Ashley, if anything happens to Aiden, I won’t let your whole family go. If I don’t live well, your whole family will bury me.”

Ashley gasped. Knowing Julian for so many years, she always thought Julian was so good–tempered that he was somewhat. cowardly, and never thought that Julian could be so scary when he was angry.

Looking at Julian’s fierce eyes, thinking of the day he dragged her to the underground garage, and wanted to die with her. Ashley was scared all of a sudden.
