Chapter 1775

“Charlie” Mrs. James frowned at him.

Charlie turned to leave, but paused, “Oh, and just so we’re clear, if you have something to say, say it to me. I don’t

want you going behind my back to talk to Emily. I wouldn’t like that.”

Mrs. James opened her mouth as if to say something, but no words came out. She watched as her son, with his

steady stride and resolute back, headed towards the garden.

A sense of unease crept into her heart. She could tell that Charlie was serious this time.

At night.

As soon as the housemaid had finished bathing Kya, Charlie sent her away, and he himself picked up Kya and set

her on the bed. “Tonight, I have a new story for you.”

The bedside table that had been vacant the night before was now stacked high with new picture books.

Kya, soft and squishy, leaned against Charlie, “Daddy, I miss Mommy. Why hasn’t she come yet?”

Charlie’s hand, which was flipping through the picture book, stilled. He held Kya in his arms and whispered

soothingly, “Mommy’s been busy with work lately. Let’s give her some space to rest, okay? In a few days, I will take

you to see Mommy.”

Kya, with her wide, innocent eyes, nodded understandingly, “Then I’ll wait for Mommy.”

“What a good girl.” Charlie gave her a peck on her little head.

His phone, which was lying nearby, lit up. It was a text from Emily. [I miss Kya. Can I see her?]

A smirk played at the corners of Charlie’s lips as he selected a photo from his phone’s gallery and sent it to her.

Emily was a little taken aback upon seeing the photo. It was taken at the 9th Mansion. Kya was leaning against the

black metal railing, a woven flower crown on her head, her large eyes curled up in a smile.

It was a photo taken by Norah at a previous gathering.

Before Emily could question him, Charlie sent another message, [When I missed Kya, I could only look at her

pictures. Now it’s your turn.]

Emily was speechless.

Charlie, feeling victorious, put his phone aside and continued reading the picture book to Kya.

He couldn’t be blamed for being heartless. Only when Kya was with him could he force Emily to surrender.

He feared Emily’s reaction, so he had to resort to small tricks.

However, he felt a little restless, fearing that Emily would lose sleep over missing Kya. After some thought, he took

a picture of Kya leaning against him, engrossed in the picture book, and sent it to Emily, [Kya is fine with me. Don’t

worry. If you can’t sleep, think about what I said today.]

Emily replied, [I’m not losing sleep, and I’m definitely not thinking about you.]

Charlie stared at his phone, a smile playing on his lips, his eyes shining with delight.

His moment of triumph was interrupted when Mrs. James knocked and entered the room, smiling kindly at Kya,

“Kya, why don’t you come sleep with me? Your daddy isn’t very still when he sleeps. He might kick you.”

Charlie quickly pulled Kya closer to him, “When have I ever been restless in my sleep? Don’t make stuff up about

me in front of Kya just to get your way.”

“You used to roll off the bed when you were little.’ Mrs. James retorted with conviction.

Charlie was speechless, “When I was little? How old am I now?”
