The atmosphere inside wasn’t good. Families undergoing mediation glanced over, and then turned back to scare their own kids, “See that? If you don’t behave, we’ll sell you off! Would you dare to steal again?”

There was a newlywed couple having a fight. The husband pointed at his wife and said, “See? Even the police recommend not going to the orphanage. You’re already pregnant with my child, so why cause trouble? It was just a slap, at least I’m not selling the baby!”

Amid the surrounding noise, Quinton held Janet’s hand with one and clutched his shirt with the other, looking down as he hesitantly said, “I’m willing to go to a foster home, but can we find one nearer to my mom’s hospital? So I can visit her sometimes.”

Janet looked confused but was thrilled to hear she could be close to Quinton, nodding repeatedly. “Yes, I want to be with Quinton.”

Benedict sighed, having seen this kind of situation too many times, he felt helpless, “Even if he is to be sent to foster care. first they need to prove the guardian can’t take care of themselves or has obvious criminal tendencies.”

“Damn,” Stanley muttered a curse in anger, and then realized Quinlyn was there and quickly covered her ears. “My mistake, I’ll be careful next time.”

Quinlyn, however, did not respond. She continued to fix her gaze on Tommy, her eyes seemingly unable to let light in, lost in thought. Suddenly, she moved forward, standing beside Tommy, her voice calm. “You hit them.”

Everyone in the room was stunned.
