Jordan Thompson’s voice was intercepted by a cold tone.
Jordan Thompson was cut off in his speech, and following the voice, he saw the person speaking was Justin Battleson.
In the meantime, the man had finished his meal and was leisurely wiping his hands with a napkin, his pale and slender fingers were extremely pleasing to the eye. Chapters first released on novelꜰire.net
Charlotte Thompson also glanced over.
After a few seconds, Justin Battleson raised his eyebrows and looked at Jordan Thompson with a smile that was not quite a smile, and asked, "Henry Hudson?"
At his words, Jordan Thompson gave him a wary look and asked, "What are you up to?"
"I heard you’re very supportive of Henry Hudson being with your sister..." Justin Battleson smiled unconcernedly, "But do you know why your sister and I have crossed that line and confirmed our romantic relationship?"
Charlotte Thompson pursed her lips, knowing what he was about to say.
After considering for a long time what Henry Hudson had said to her on the phone that night, she had told Justin Battleson about it.
Charlotte Thompson took a sip of soy milk with a distracted mind, looked at the children who were obediently eating, and Grace Thompson, who was struggling to chew a piece of greens in her mouth, also looked up at her.
In the meeting of their eyes, Charlotte Thompson saw in her own daughter’s eyes the same sense of helplessness she felt.
Jordan Thompson furrowed his brow, looking at Justin Battleson with a mix of suspicion and belief.
He was also puzzled. Charlotte Thompson’s attitude had always been firm, how could she suddenly have a change of heart?
A hint of amusement flashed in Justin Battleson’s eyes. He threw the napkin in his hand into the trash can at his feet and lightly opened his mouth: "Your sister being with me, is Henry Hudson’s decision."
At these words, Jordan Thompson was dumbfounded.
He opened his mouth, took a long time to react, and there was an obvious bewilderment in his eyes, then he looked towards Charlotte Thompson.
"Sister, is what he is saying true?"
At his words, Charlotte Thompson gave a bitter smile and nodded.
Upon seeing this, Jordan Thompson’s brain completely shut down, and he was unable to process it for a long time.
He sat stiffly on a chair, and after a few seconds, he started to silently pick up his chopsticks and push his food around.
Charlotte Thompson pursed her lips, thought for a few seconds and then said, "I’m going to Henry’s place tonight, you should come too."
The latter stayed silent for a while then nodded his head.
The meal took a long time. After Jordan Thompson’s dramatic tantrum, Charlotte Thompson also lost her appetite.
After cleaning up the dining table, she sat down on the couch and the phone on the table conveniently rang.
She signaled Justin Battleson and took her phone to the hallway to answer the call.
It was from Annie Anne.
Charlotte Thompson raised an eyebrow, somewhat surprised.
It’s been a while since she had visited Annie after sending her daughter to the hospital to accompany her and occasionally receiving calls from Oliver Hudson.
On the other end of the phone, Oliver Hudson’s voice finally seemed more cheerful, which was presumably due to Annie’s improved mental state since she had been accompanied by Annie and her level-headed periods were getting longer.
Before Charlotte Thompson could open her mouth to speak, she heard the woman on the other side sound quite cheerful.
"Charlotte, are you busy?"
At her words, Charlotte Thompson smiled and responded, "Just finished eating, what’s up?"
On the other side, Annie Anne was hugging Annie. Although her face still looked pale and sickly, her eyes finally had some vitality.
The little girl obediently watched her, her big eyes full of expectation.
Annie Anne glanced at her and then spoke with a smile to Charlotte Thompson, "Annie misses you guys."
