Chapter 327
Anthony looked at her, equally clueless.
By then, Chris had already assisted her to the seat. He then scooped a spoonful of soup and aimed the spoon at Charmine.
Charmine frowned and questioned, “What’s going on, Momo? Mommy has eaten, I’m not hungry.”
“But Mommy needs to eat nutritious food! Even I know it! Mommy doesn’t have to feel embarrassed.”
Chris insisted Charmine eat the soup, his eyes practically gleaming at her belly. “Mommy,” beamed Chris,” do you think I’ll have a brother or a sister?” 2
Charmine was staggered.
Brother? Sister?
Did Chris assume that she and Anthony went to the hotel to do such a thing?
Then again… That was likely it! Why else would he make the liver soup and mention a baby?
Charmine explained, “Momo, Mommy didn’t do anything like that. You naughty boy, you’re imagining things! Also,”
“I get it, Mommy, I get it! You’re superstitious and don’t want to talk about it before you’re three months into the pregnancy!” Chris made a cute gesture with a finger in front of his mouth. “Don’t worry, I’ll keep this a secret!”
Charmine was rendered speechless.
What was wrong with this generation of kids? Before she thought of a way to explain to him, Chris suddenly thought of something and wobbled hastily into the room.
Through the slightly opened door, Charmine saw that he was picking out toys!
Charmine turned to Anthony. “What now? What do we say?”
“We don’t have to. Nial said that we should make sure he remains happy, it’s good for his health.” Anthony seemed calm and did not seem bothered.
Charmine rolled her eyes. Of course he did not have to explain; he was not the ‘pregnant’ one.
Speaking of which…
“Didn’t you say you’d focus on healing Momo within three months?” asked Charmine. “Any progress?”
“Nial had gone to America. He’s learning the latest technology, and it’s likely to make progress,” came Anthony’s explanation.
Charmine frowned. Likely?
So it was not guaranteed? This text is © NôvelDrama/.Org.
That was understandable. After all, mental illness was the most difficult illness to tackle globally, difficult to cure. Her gaze fell on Momo who was inside the room. He had an innocent grin on his face as he altered between playing with his toy cars and a doll, as if deciding if he was getting a brother or sister.
He was so young and deserved a happy childhood. Why did he have such a painful illness? If only he had a mother who would be with him forever, someone who could give him a younger sister, so that he would be happy every day and probably healed from the illness.
The thought tugged at her heartstrings.
Ding! A message lit up her phone.
It was from Gloria. [Tonight at 8pm, Master Potter will be waiting for you at Derby Café. Don’t forget. Thanks!)
Charmine replied, [Ok.)
Due to the incident between Scarlet and Gigi, the Horizon Night event went viral and was greatly discussed. A win-win for both parties, really. News of the event overshadowed many international headlines and news, thus the industry crowned Charmine as ‘God’s Hand’
Some people even brought up Charmine’s Guci counter-tactic. Everyone called her the ‘No.1 God’s Hand’, surpassing Claire Eastly who was once the greatest mind in the industry, though nobody heard from her after her company went bankrupt. 2
Charmine had just returned to Burlington in less than two months, yet so many things happened. 1
It was past seven in the evening at Darby Café. Senior Potter was sitting with a woman by his side. The woman was McKenzie!
