chapter 1959
"Although Susan was unhappy, she should've voiced out her displeasure instead of bottling things. Cheating is wrong, regardless. Furthermore, if she wanted a career, she didn't have to stay home and depend on her husband." i
Grandma Bailey halted.
Was that what Charmine truly thought of?
Grandma Bailey thought Charmine would find Susan too aggressive unto herself.
Charmine glanced at Susan again and apathetically commented, "She doesn't want to make money on her own, but she wants to be rich while complaining about her man not making time for her and taking care of her? If a woman has no ability of her own and also blames others for her miseries, all she's worth is to sit quietly at home and wait for her husband to come home. She also has no right to cheat! This is how the world works." i
Charmine patted Grandma Bailey's shoulder and held Anthony's hand, her words met with everyone's evidently surprised gazes and their silence.
Grandma Bailey was shocked. Sure, Charmine sounded rather ruthless in her choice of words, yet she had her points.
Anthony truly had found the right woman.
Anthony walked out of the ward with Charmine, and he lowered his head to interlock his fingers with hers. He thought of something and paused for a moment, his gaze trained on her before he cooed affectionately, "My darling, even if you don't want to work, I can take care of you, protect you, and spoil you."© NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
What he genuinely thought was that he had to love her so much that he did not want her to cheat on him. i
He did not want to be cheated on.
He would go insane if Charmine had another child behind his back like Susan did.
Charmine met his eyes and knew what he was thinking. She curled up her lips and smiled, saying nothing in response.
Anthony felt unsettled at her silence, and he became antsy with her lack of response.
At that moment, Chris rushed to the hospital and overheard their conversation.
His tiny figure rushed toward them as he then grabbed Charmine's hand. He looked up at her, his large doe eyes gleaming with anticipation. "Mommy, hurry and make me a little sister! I want a sister!"
As long as Charmine was pregnant, other men would not disturb her, and she would not cheat!
His Mommy had to get pregnant soon!
Charmine looked at him and could not help ruffling his hair. She had a motherly look in her eyes as she said affectionately, "My dear, Mommy don't plan to have another
baby anytime soon. Daddy and I only want to spoil only you for now." 1
It was a long, arduous journey that she finally found out he was her son, and she had yet to reconcile with him genuinely and make up for the lost days.
However...
"Argh!" Chris cried out and let go of her hand. His tiny body fell on the floor as he started to jolt.
His big eyes rolled back, and his lips twitched as he mumbled, "Mommy, I want a sister. I want a sister..."
Anthony hugged Charmine as the two of them stared down at Chris being ’in so much pain', yet they did nothing.
Chris had completely recovered; his illness was gone and would not affect him at all.
Thus, they watched him act.
Chris twitched for a long while before he blinked his watery eyes.
Why did this trick not work? Did... Did they no longer love him?
Anthony and Charmine watched him and smiled lovingly.
The family of three, finally reunited, made a wholesome sight to behold.
