Chapter 66 Protect him

• Randle's sobbing continued, but I went right outside. My heart was aching, so I swallowed. How could he so casually leave my son to his wicked mother and the woman who damaged his reputation? Even though it was difficult, I sprinted for the gate when we exited the building. As I fled, I made Randle stop weeping by kissing his cheek, and the guard saw me walking, so he opened the door.
• I couldn't thank him any longer. I rummaged in my pockets while holding Randle in one arm, hoping that there was still some left in the coins Archer had given me, but I grew dizzy because even one penny was gone.
• Not only that, but I sat down as we walked down the side. I put Randle in front of me and covered my face behind my knees. I had hardly gotten up when someone grabbed my shoulder. I pushed that in a panic, well, Randle was quiet because I didn't know where we were headed now. I don't want to go see Alex since he's one of the reasons things are so messed up right now. I'm embarrassed by Ava since she already has her own family, and I feel it would be better not to huddle there any longer.
