Charlotte reassured him as she caressed his hair.
“Mommy, are you sick?”
Jamie quickly poured her a glass of water. He ran towards her, causing some of the water to splash out
of the glass. He quickly caught the droplets with his hand, afraid that they might splash onto Charlotte.
“Mommy, have some water!”
“Thanks, Jamie.” The woman felt extremely touched by her sons’ kind action.

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 play 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 to come 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 were completely 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 slam 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 to come out and speak to me right now.”
“Mam…”
The children dashed out of the kitchen when they heard the commotion. 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?”
