Chapter161
Facing the little guy’s question, Charlie gave him a look at the cover.
“You don’t know this. It’s not for children,” he said to Ben.
“My mother said that when I grow up, I will know a lot of words,” Ben replied.
Charlie looked at Ben closely.
“Then when will you grow up?” He asked.
“It should be soon,” Ben said. He didn’t know, but he was full of expectations for the future.
“When I grow up, I will protect my mother,” Ben also said.
“Your mother is an adult and can protect herself,” Charlie replied.
“No, my mother is fragile, and there are many annoying people who always make her sad,” Ben argued.
“Really?” Charlie said and looked at the little guy with serious eyes.
Ben nodded.
“Really. Dad, will you protect my mother with me in the future? They say that my father is supposed to protect
my mother,” Ben said in his cute voice.
Charlie frowned when he heard Ben’s words, thinking of Cristina….
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAlthough that woman gave birth to his child, he had no idea about Cristina at all.
“Can you protect her? I don’t think so,” Charlie said.
Fortunately, Ben didn’t struggle with this issue. His eyes fell on the fruit bowl on the table, and he swallowed.
“This grape looks delicious,” he said, looking at the grapes with interest.
“But my mother said, you can’t just eat other people’s food,” he said with disappointment.
Charlie looked at him swallowing and chuckled secretly.
“Want to eat?” He asked Ben.
Ben shook his head.
“I don’t want to,” he replied.
Charlie observed Ben, picked up a grape, peeled it off for him, and handed it to him.
“Eat it,” Charlie said with a gentle tone.
Ben came over, opened his mouth, and ate the grapes that Charlie helped him peel. It was delicious.
“Thank you, Dad,” Ben said.
Charlie raised the corner of his mouth when he looked at Ben’s well-behaved, sensible and polite appearance.
Originally, Charlie, who had no expectations for the child before, suddenly felt an indescribable surprise in his
heart.
He was becoming a dad!
That feeling of pride, from the bottom of his heart, burst out like fireworks.
He took out his mobile phone and sent a message. Roderick was in the hospital when he suddenly received a
message from Charlie.
“Do you think the child is cute?” Charlie’s message to Roderick said.
Roderick knew that Charlie didn’t like children very much. He was usually busy with work and felt that children
were troublesome.
Suddenly receiving this news from Charlie at this moment, Roderick replied.
“He’s cute.”
Charlie texted Roderick again: “I have a son!”
Although he couldn’t see Charlie’s expression, for some reason, Roderick could imagine Charlie’s pride
through the phone.
He laughed and resisted the urge to hit: “You sent a message for this?”
When did his boss become so boring?
Roderick always thought Charlie was quite a serious person, and he had never seen him so boring.
He felt speechless but also felt a little funny.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmCharlie sent another text to Roderick again.
“Come and see my son when you have time, he is very cute!” Charlie wrote.
Next door, Leonard was dismantling his model. Theresa watched him and found that his hands-on ability was
really strong.
Just then, Mama Tang walked in.
“Leonard,” she called.
Leonard raised his head, glanced at Tang’s mother, responded, and lowered back his head to do his own
business.
“Did you hit your brother-in-law?” Mrs. Calsis asked Leonard.
Leonard didn’t speak.
“Leonard, grandma is talking to you!” Theresa said urgently.
Only then did Leonard reply: “I don’t want him to come into my room. I hate him!”
Leticia was a little surprised.
“Why?” She asked.
“He’s a bad guy,” Leonard said disgustedly.
