At that moment, Wendy emerged from the kitchen and was met with the sight of Gabriel and Jane locked in a tense standoff, while Wilhelm sobbed uncontrollably nearby.

She hurried over, frowning. "Ms. Wilkie, Mr. Hackett, if you're going to argue, at least don't do it in front of the child."

Jane scoffed. "We're divorced. What do you expect?"

Wilhelm flinched at her outburst but continued crying even harder.

Gabriel took a deep breath and turned to Wendy. "Take Wilhelm upstairs and pack his things. I'll be taking him with me."

Wendy hesitated. "You're taking Mr. Wilhelm away?"
