"What''s wrong with letting me bum meals off you? How miserly of you," Chester said humorously.


    "I''m not miserly." Charity smiled faintly, and her eyes looked so bright that it looked like she could see through him. "Even though you said you''re here to bum meals off me, I''m worried you''ll soon take this as your home and refuse to leave."


    At that instant, Chester''s intention was seen through. After panicking for two seconds, he quickly pulled himself together and sighed. "Charity, I didn''t think giving you some bread would lead to such a big misunderstanding. I really think we can never get together in this life and that I don''t deserve to be with you. I''m more than content to see your smiling face once in a while. Yes, I admit I have an ulterior motive for living next door. Nevertheless, I can''t get over you even after over the years getting treatment for my leg overseas."


    While speaking, he suddenly paused and darted a sad nce at Charity.


    "Now, I think watching you from afar is a form of blessing too."


    "


    Charity was lost for two seconds.


    She knew that Chester still could not get over her.


    In fact, Chester intend to protect her even though they could not get together.


    At that moment, Cal suddenly bawled in Chester''s arms.


    "What... Is he okay?" Chester became nervous. "I''m carrying him very gently, and it shouldn''t hurt."


    "He has probably pooped." Charity extended her hand. "Let me change his diaper."


    "It''s okay. I can deal with smelly poop." Chester wanted to do something for the child. However, when he unwrapped the diaper, the smelly, yellowish poop almost made him faint.


    Seeing that, Charity crossed her arms and did not go forward.


    She watched Chester clumsily change the diaper for the child. He even identally stained his pants with the poop.


    Chester was at a loss for words.


    His face nearly turned sour. He was under the impression that changing diapers was an easy task.


    However, in the next moment, at the thought that Charity had been leading this kind of life recently, he was immediately fine with it.


    Charity had no choice but to get up and prepare a bucket of water to clean the child''s bottom.


    When Chester watched how the child went from being ufortable to smelling good, he felt a huge sense of satisfaction.


    It turned out that was how it felt to be in a family of three. Why did he consider the woman as nothing in the past and even get annoyed about starting a family?


    After Charity poured the water away and returned, Chester reluctantly handed the child to her. "I''ll go home and change my pants."


    Charity took the child without bothering to look at him.


    As soon as Larissa heard the door closing, she walked out. "Where''s Chester? Did you send him away?"


    With that, she red at her daughter with a hint of dissatisfaction. "How could you do that? He has trouble walking and is alone at home. He''s really sad."


    Charity was speechless.


    Larissa said in a huff, "Actually, I know what happened between you and Chester. His behavior was indeed too much back then, but what matters most is that he has learned from his mistakes. What''s more, he has paid the price for what he did."


    "Mom, are you trying to persuade me into being with him by saying these things?" Charity could tell what Larissa''s intention was. The way Larissa viewed Chester was different now.


    "All I know is that he truly loves you."


    Larissa said seriously, "I can sense that Chester''s love for you is different from Max''s. Look, Max loves you too, but he can''t convince his family to ept you, nor does he dare oppose his family. However, Chester is different. He''s willing to risk his career and life for your sake. Now that he''s finally back, the first thing he did was to be your neighbor rather than get back his ownpany. This shows that you''re his top priority."
