Chapter 1255
Charlie was a novice at this, but it turned out to be pretty straightforward -just get everything cleaned up.
Emily didn’t try to stop him. Instead, she busied herself cleaning up the table and putting away the dishes Charlie
had cleaned.
As Emily put away the dishes, she caught a glimpse of Charlie’s upright figure. He was thoroughly washing the
dishes, his shirt sleeves rolled up to reveal
his strong forearms. This feeling couldn’t help but made people feel a little bit excited. Emily tried to keep her cool,
imagining that they were just colleagues working together as they would in the office, trying not to let her thought a
lot.
In the living room, Estelle was playing blocks with Kya, while Jonathan watched with a calm and gentle expression.
Watching Estelle interact with Kya stirred up feelings of discontent in Jonathan. Why did Charlie, who hadn’t done
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtanything, have such an adorable daughter when he and Estelle, despite their long relationship, didn’t have a child of
their own?
That’s not fair!
“What’s wrong?” Estelle looked up at Jonathan, sensing something was off.
“Do you like kids?” Jonathan asked, his eyes filled with a hint of melancholy.
Estelle thought of the white pills Jonathan always gave her and shook her head, “I only like Kya. I don’t like other
kids.”
“What if it was our child?” Jonathan’s gaze was intense.
Estelle shook her head again, “I haven’t thought about it.”
She really hadn’t thought about what it would be like to have a child of her own
She thought Jonathan would press her further on whether or not she wanted kids, but he remained silent,
seemingly lost in thought.
Emily walked over with a tray of fruit, “let’s eat some fruits!”
Charlie, having finished washing his hands, came out of the kitchen with two glasses of wine. He handed one to
Jonathan, “by the way, shall we throw you a party to celebrate your new home?”
Jonathan saw a hint of jest in Charlie’s eyes and raised an eyebrow, “Are you jealous? Why not buy the house across
from Emily’s and join the party?” Emily glanced nervously at them.
Fortunately, Charlie wasn’t that impulsive. He laughed and shook his head, “I dont have as much motivation as
you.”
Jonathan said, “I’ve checked out the neighborhood. It’s not luxurious, but it’s nice. If you want to move here, I could
buy the house downstairs and give it to you.”
Charlie chuckled, “Thanks, but save your money.”
“Oh, right!” Jonathan asked, “You told me you were building a villa on a piece of land I gave you. How’s that going?”
Charlie had almost forgotten about it. Kya had given him a model of a villa and on a whim, he’d built a real one on
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmMaple Street.
Now that he thought about it, that model was actually a gift from Emily,
Of course, Emily didn’t know that her model had become a real villa.
Charlie glanced silently at Emily before responding to Jonathan, “It’s almost finished. I’ll invite you guys over once
it’s done.”
As the two men chatted, Estelle and Emily kept Kya company in the warm, yellow light of the living room.
Around nine o’clock, Kya started to doze off. She leaned against Charlie’s leg, listening to him read from a picture
book.
Charlie’s voice, slightly slurred from the wine, was charming and deep, very pleasing to the ear.
Estelle leaned on Jonathan’s shoulder, surprisingly captivated by the story.
Emily came back from making Kya’s bed and saw that she was about to fall asleep. She went over to pick her up,
“I’ll take her to bed.”
Kya suddenly opened her eyes, tightly clutching Charlie, and mumbled, “I want Charlie to put me to bed.”
