“Please sign it,” the delivery man reminded again.

Charlotte quickly signed in and brought the gift back inside.

“Mommy, who sent the gift?”

The children surrounded her, filled with curiosity.

“It’s someone you don’t know...”

Charlotte felt troubled. If Zachary was indeed Gigolo, then he must then be the children’s father.

Does he already know the truth? Or else, why would he send a gift here?

“What is it? Quick, open it up so we can see.”

The trio widened their eyes with anticipation.

As Charlotte unwrapped its exquisite wrapping layer by layer, she wondered what could it be.

Her heart was overwhelmed by emotions.

“Mommy, you’re just too slow. Let me help you.”

Jamie took over the gift box impatiently and help to unwrap it.

Meanwhile, Robbie brought a pair of scissors to help.

Ellie was rubbing her hands as she waited excitedly by the side.

Finally, they managed to open the gift box. Inside, there was another pink box that emanated a floral fragrance. Just when Charlotte was about to open it, Ellie volunteered excitedly. “Come, let me do it.”

“Alright, you do it!”

Charlotte knew how much little girls enjoyed opening presents, hence she passed it to Ellie.

Holding the box in her hand, Ellie took a deep breath before opening it excitedly.

“Ah!”

The next moment, a horrifying shriek rang out, followed by Robbie and Jamie’s screams.

Fifi fluttered around her cage squawking, “I’m scared, I’m scared!”

At that moment, the house went into an uproar.

Charlotte’s eyes widened in shock and she looked at the contents in disbelief.

It was the body of a dead kitten. It was still covered in blood and was a gruesome sight indeed. Obviously, someone had killed it cruelly.

Beside it, there was even a toy with flashing lights and a clown’s smiling face.

“Don’t worry. Mommy is here.”

Charlotte quickly regained her senses and put the cover back on the box.

When she was about to take it outside, she felt something was amiss. She could hear a ticking sound coming from the box.

“It’s a bomb! Mommy, throw it away!”

Robbie grabbed the box from Charlotte’s hands and dashed out.

“Robbie!” Charlotte screamed as she ran after him.

Right when Robbie threw the box along the corridor, the box exploded with a loud bang.
