Chapter 246 When Baber slipped into Lisette's hospital room, it was eerily quiet. The little guy nudged the door

open and snuck in like a mischievous cat.

Lisette had been asleep, but she was jolted awake by a sharp, searing pain that felt like a punch to the gut. Her

eyes flew open, and she tried to scream, but before any sound escaped, a hand clamped over her mouth.

Baber leaned over her bed, pulling a goofy face.

Lisette nearly jumped out of her skin, her heart pounding as she realized who it

was.

"You nasty witch, ugly witch, why did you try to hurt me?" Baber demanded, staring her down.

"It's... it's you!" Lisette gasped, sucking in a breath of air. "It wasn't me, Baber! You should blCalliope! I'm

telling you, it was all her doing! She's the real villain here!"

Lisette scrambled to weave her tale. "She doesn't like you, Baber. She's got her sights set on your daddy. She

wants to marry him but doesn't want you hanging around. It's all her plan to get rid of you!"

She figured Baber was just a kid, easily swayed by a bit of manipulation.

"Baber, | can help you," she coaxed, trying to sound convincing. "You don't want a mean stepmom, do you?"

Baber stared at Lisette, his eyes wide with disbelief.

"See? You know I'm right! | was only trying to help you out! That Calliope, lettell you, she's a piece of work.

Even her own family can't stand her. If she becomes your dad's wife, you'll lose both your mom and dad. You'll

end up a poor, unloved kid!"

Baber's eyes, sharp and discerning, locked onto Lisette's.

For a long moment, Lisette thought she had him convinced, that she'd won him

over.

But then Baber chuckled, a sound that sent a chill down her spine.

"Callie's already married," Baber said, his eyes twinkling with mischief.

"And I'd be thrilled if she beci my

mom. Both Dad and I adore

ber."

Lisette squinted, trying to mask her frustration. "She's just fooling you. You can't

trust a word she says!"

"And I'm supposed to trust a

venomous snake like you?" Baber

shot back with a smirk. "You

kidnapped me, remember? You think

I'm a fool? I'm small, but I'm not stupid."

Baber leaned forward, suddenly pressing down on Lisette's freshly bandaged

arm.

The pain shot through her, and tears welled up in her eyes.

"Let go! You're crushing my arm, you little brat!" Lisette barked, trying to free herself.

But Baber only pressed harder, his cherubic face hardening with a touch of his father's steely resolve.

"Does it hurt? Good. Maybe you'll think twice before messing with Callie. You can mess with me, but you leave

her alone!"

"Ow! Let go, help, someone!" Lisette screamed, her voice frantic. "Someone, help! This little monster is trying to

murder me!"

In desperation, she grabbed a glass from the bedside table with her free hand and hurled it at Baber's head.

"What the hell is going on?" A guard burst into

the room, quickly

restraining Lisette's arm.

"It was him! That little demon was hurting me!" Lisette shrieked, tears spilling

down her cheeks from the pain and frustration.
