Chapter 1088

Charlie sped off in his car, with Jonathan closely following behind. Caught by a red light, Jonathan lost track of

Charlie, only to find him later in a room at the Midnight Bar

Two bottles of booze were laid out before Charlie. He looked gloomy, raised his head to look at Jonathan and

cracked a smile, “Why the chase? Come to watch me make a fool of myself?”

Jonathan plopped down across from him, poured himself a drink, and said, “You’ve got the hots for Emily, don’t

you? Otherwise, why would you give a damn about her getting hitched and popping out a kid?”

Charlie was taken aback, picked up his drink, and didn’t utter a word.

Did he really have a thing for Emily? He should be hating her guts!

Jonathan poured him another drink, “You’re not mad at me, are you?”

“Mad at you for what?” Charlie raised an eyebrow.

“I knew about Kya being Emily’s kid all along. But Estelle had me zip my lips, so I didn’t spill the beans to you.”

Charlie let out a sarcastic laugh, “So, in your book, I’m not even close to Estelle.”

Jonathan shrugged nonchalantly, “Well, duh!”

Charlie gritted his teeth, “Don’t forget, when you hit rock bottom, I was the one who stuck by you!”

Jonathan nodded, “That’s why I’m here keeping you company.”

Charlie turned his head away, not wanting to chat.

Jonathan chuckled, “If you’re really into Emily, go after her. Drowning your sorrows won’t do squat!”

“Same goes for you!” Charlie shot back, “But you’re barking up the wrong tree. Why would I chase after a divorcee

with a kid?”

Jonathan shrugged, “Fair enough, forget about her then. Emily’s mom will get better soon, and she’ll head back to

Oakdale City anyway.”

Charlie tightened his grip on his drink but said nothing.

After a while, he asked, “She’s divorced?”

He recalled Estelle mentioning something about it when they were discussing Kya’s backstory.

“I’m clueless. Aside from the fact that Kya is Emily’s kid, I know zilch Jonathan said, “If you’re so curious, why don’t

you ask her yourself!”

Charlie pondered over his drink, then chugged it down in one gulp.

As the night wore on, Emily soothed Kya to sleep and then lay down on the bed herself. She gazed at Kya’s peaceful

sleeping face, feeling an indescribable pain in her heart.

Had she ever thought about bumping into Charlie when she returned home?

She was both eager and afraid to see him. On the eve of her departure, he had just gotten engaged. Even though

Estelle later told her that Charlie broke off the engagement, he must have a string of girls after him.

The scene of running into him with a new girlfriend while she was with Kya would be incredibly awkward.

Luckily, J City was vast, and not crossing paths for years was quite normal.

Gradually, she let go of the thought of running into Charlie, planning to leave after attending her brother’s wedding.

However, they happened to come across each other in precisely that situation. The man Kya kept mentioning, the

one who had came to her home and kept Kya company, turned out to be Charlie.

Her heart was restless for quite a while.

She was fully aware of her situation. With a world of difference between their backgrounds, there was no future for

them. If Charlie found out about Kya’s true identity, there could only be two outcomes. One, Charlie would insist on

custody of Kya. Two, he would give her a hefty child support payment and ask her to leave with Kya forever.

She dreaded both scenarios.

So, the best solution was to never let Charlie uncover the truth.
