Leonard tried to reason with her, saying, "After all, she's Noah's biological mother. You don'

CuddleMama tell silent after hearing what he said.

She had raised Noah for years and had already grown deeply attached to him. Of course, she didn't want him to resent her in the future either. But...

"We can pay her the amount she's asking for now, but who's to say she won't ask for more later on?

CoddleMama shook her head. "Let's ask Ms. Locke. She's quite slilled. Perlaps she can help."

She turned to Madison on the livestream. "My daughter got married abroad a few years ago and gave birth to a child there. I went overseas to help her take care of iny grandchild, but it wasn't happy living there, so I came back home.

"When I returned, the home felt empty. My husband saw how lonely I was, so we decided to adopt Noah. He was abandoned by his birth parents right after he was bon, and we went through all the proper adoption procedures to adopt him. "But just last month, Noah's biological mother came back, wanting to take him away. If we don't let her take him, she wants us to pay her."

Through the screen, it was clear that CuddleMama's family was pretty well-off and most likely educated. The bookshelves behind her were stacked with rows of books that reached up to the ceiling. The couple also had well-mannered and cultured attitudes The viewers started commenting.

"If the adoption was legal, the birth parents can't just take him back You should call the police."

"How could they abandon their own child and then come back asking for money? What type of parents are they?"

"They're obviously here just for the money, not for the child"

CuddleMama sighed after reading the comments. "We thought about calling the police, but she's still Noah's biological mother no matter what. I'm worried that if things tum ugly, Noah will hate us when he grows up.

She gently stroked Noah's head. He smiled sweetly, called her "Grandma", then nuzzled into Leopard's arms

CuddleMama chuckled as she ran her fingers through Noah's hair. "How many times have we told you? Call us "Grandpa' and 'Grandma. You're still getting it mixed up "

Leonard shook his head. "He's still young. He'll figure it out naturally when he's older."

Turning to Madison, CuddleMama asked, "Ms. Locke, do you have any advice?

Madison silently watched the touching sight of the family in front of her

"Is that ano?" CuddleMama asked, her voice sounding disappointed

Madison shook her head. "It's not that there's no solution. But the problem lies with your husband."

"My husband?" CuddleMama turned to look at Leonard.

Leonard's tone of voice changed slightly as he forced a nervous smile. "How could it be me?" Of course, I want Noah to stay with us tool"

He glanced at the screen and saw Madison's sharp gaze at him. He hurriedly turned away.

Madison continued, "Do you think paying her off is the best solution?"

Leonard let out a forced laugh. "Of course. If money can fix this, that's the easiest way, right? After all, she's Noah's biological mother. We can't have him growing up hating us CuddleMama nodded in agreement. "That's what has been holding us back. We're worried about Noah's future."

Madison then pointed out, "It's the birth mother who's asking for money tod him too?

y today. What will you do when the birth father shows up

demanding more? Will you pay

Leonard answered quickly, "Nol of course not. We'll only pay her this one time and no more "How can you be so suce?" Madison asked.

Leonard got silent for a moment and muttered, "Alright, this is a private family matter. We shouldn't be discussing this online. Let's stop the call." "Because you"re child's biological father Madison's words pierced through the tension. Chapter
