Chapter 656: Mommy Don't Cry

"Mummy, why did the police uncle take you away?"

"Mummy, did we run out of money, so you had to steal to support us?"

The speaker was the usually mischievous Grace Thompson.

Charlotte Thompson laughed lightly and flicked her on the forehead, chiding, "What on earth are you thinking about, kiddo?"

Afterwards, she explained, "Mummy had a bit too much to drink and drove, which is considered drunk driving. That's why the police uncle took me to the station and gave me a talking-to."

She gave her children a reassuring look and then comforted them, "Mummy's right here and perfectly fine."

Upon hearing her words, all the children's eyes widened in surprise.

Cyrus Thompson, being the eldest, was more informed about the severity of drink-driving. He frowned and scolded, "Mummy, you're an adult. You should know better than to drink and drive. Not only will the police uncle scold you, but accidents can happen."
