    Charlotte reassured him as she caressed his hair.

    of the ss. He quickly caught the droplets with his hand, afraid that they might ssh onto Charlotte.


    “Mommy, have some water!”


    “Thanks, Jamie.” The woman felt extremely touched by her sons’ kind action.


    “Here, Mommy! Ellie will help you wipe your sweat.” Her youngest stood on her tiptoes and wiped


    Charlotte’s sweat away with her sleeves, worry written all over her cute little face.


    “Thanks, my dears. Have all of you been good while Mommy was away?”


    “Yes!” the three of them replied instantaneously.


    Charlotte felt very happy. No matter how difficult life got for her, she was always reminded once again


    that life was worth living every time she saw her kids.


    “Alright, kids. Mommy will be resting now. Go and y with Mrs. Berry for a moment, won’t you?”


    Mrs. Berry soon managed to cook up an excuse to lure the kids away. “I’ll make you guys chicken


    nuggets for dinner tonight. Do you want toe and help me?”


    “Okay…” The three of them skipped out of the room after the housekeeper


    Charlotte locked the door of her room behind her after they left. When she looked down at herself, she


    realized that her clothes werepletely soaked in sweat.


    She had no choice but to head into the bathroom and wipe herself down before changing into another


    set of clothes…


    At that moment, a loud m sounded as someone banged violently on the front door.


    “Who’s there?” Mrs. Berry called. When she opened the door to see who it was, she let out a huge


    gasp. “It’s you! What are you doing here again?”


    “Why can’t I be here?” It was Amanda’s voice.


    Charlotte hurried to put on her clothes. However, because of her injuries, lifting her hand took a lot of


    effort. She managed to put on her shirt after a long while of struggling.


    “Mam, please leave. We don’t want any trouble around here.”


    “Who the hell do you think you are to talk to me like that?” Amanda hollered, an arrogant expression


    written all over her face. “Where’s Charlotte? Tell her toe out and speak to me right now.”


    “Mam…”


    The children dashed out of the kitchen when they heard themotion. Upon seeing Amanda standing


    at the door with fury written all over her face, they yelped, “Who are you? Why did you barge into our


    house, and how dare you behave so impolitely?”
