Justin Battleson murmured, thinking of the man who was now completely different from his past self.
"He takes care of Annie Anne every day, but he is clear not to completely disrupt her life."
However, that was between Oliver Hudson and Annie Anne, and although Justin Battleson had always kept in touch with Oliver Hudson, he did not intentionally probe into these matters.
Charlotte Thompson nodded in response, but she still harbored some unresolved resentment towards Oliver Hudson in her heart.
When the two returned home, the children had already come out to greet them. After finishing dinner together, Charlotte Thompson told Olivia Thompson that she would take her to see Annie Anne.
Olivia Thompson blinked, seemingly not quite processing the news.
Charlotte Thompson nodded and reached out to embrace Olivia Thompson in her arms, "Your mommy has been discharged from the hospital now, let’s go see her."
A radiant smile spread across Olivia Thompson’s little face, and then she nodded vigorously.
Actually, Olivia Thompson had always been worried about Annie Anne’s health, but thankfully, Charlotte Thompson had been keeping her informed all along.
Olivia Thompson really wanted to see Annie Anne but had not found the right opportunity to talk to Charlotte Thompson about it.
All the children knew what it meant for Charlotte Thompson to take Olivia Thompson to see Annie Anne, so they were all very well behaved and did not express a desire to come along.
"We didn’t go to pick up godmother from the hospital when she was discharged; we must visit her another day," Grace Thompson spoke up.
"Annie, make sure you say hello to godmother for me," Cyrus Thompson waved to Olivia Thompson.
Initially clinging to Charlotte Thompson’s neck, Olivia Thompson looked up at Charlotte Thompson with some confusion after hearing what her siblings said,
"Mommy, aren’t brother and sisters coming along?"
But before Charlotte Thompson could explain, Hank Thompson had already said, "Today, let both godmother and mommy accompany Annie. We will visit godmother another time."
Olivia Thompson nodded at Hank Thompson.
"Alright, Annie, let’s go."
Charlotte Thompson ran her fingers through Olivia Thompson’s soft hair and turned to instruct the children to be good at home before taking Olivia Thompson to Annie Anne’s house.
Along the way, although Olivia Thompson tried to act composed, her gaze was filled with excitement and joy, which Charlotte Thompson saw and softened her heart.
Soon, Charlotte Thompson arrived with Olivia Thompson at Annie Anne’s residence, a standalone apartment where Annie Anne was already waiting for them at the doorway.
Upon seeing Annie Anne, Olivia Thompson could no longer contain herself and ran towards her.
"Mommy." Olivia Thompson sweetly called out.
Annie Anne opened her arms to embrace Olivia Thompson and gently rubbed her cheek against Olivia Thompson’s soft hair.
"Annie." Annie Anne murmured softly and then, looking up at Charlotte Thompson approaching, her eyes filled with sincere gratitude.
"Mommy, Annie missed you so much..." Olivia Thompson whispered into Annie Anne’s ear.
Annie Anne’s body trembled slightly as she held back her embrace, "Mommy missed you too."
Then, holding Olivia Thompson close and unwilling to let go, she turned to open the door behind her, smiling at Charlotte Thompson, "Come in."
After entering the room, Charlotte Thompson glanced around and felt that the decoration of Annie Anne’s room was a bit odd. Fresh chapters posted on NoveI-Fire.ɴet
The decor was all in Annie Anne’s favorite style, looking simple and warm, but many pieces of furniture had rounded edges. At first glance, it gave off a sense of discomfort.
It was as if all the sharp edges in life had been rounded off.
Or rather, it avoided all the sharp objects.
