But before he could finish speaking, Robert Thomson was the first to say: "I'll take care of Tommy."
Oliver also jumped up, "Tommy is my brother! Whoever wants to bully him has to get past me first!"
And Mrs. Smith, although she didn't like Robert Thomson either, had seen both incidents unfold with her own eyes and truly felt sorry for Thomas Smith this time. She also said, "Tommy is my grandson too! On what grounds can you take him away?"
Of course, Mrs. Smith and Thomas Smith weren't related by blood. However, from a relationship standpoint, she was still Thomas' grandmother. Paul Edwards was left speechless.
To be honest, Emma Smith and Mrs. Smith weren't responsible for his suffering this time. After all, only Avery Clark had tried to take the child. Not to mention, Emma's injuries hadn't been treated yet! However, it was such a rare opportunity to take the child away that he didn't want to miss it.
