Chapter 927: Chapter 927: Most in Need of Parental Accompaniment
Charlotte, however, hadn’t noticed as she originally intended to push Justin Battleson away, but he ended up catching her wrist directly instead.
"This is what you brought on yourself."
Justin said in a low voice and ultimately his kiss swallowed up Charlotte’s exclamations.
...
"It’s all your fault."
Charlotte looked at Justin with a coy gaze, her eyes and brows filled with flirtation.
Justin’s throat moved slightly, and seeing this, Charlotte, fearing that Justin might do something more, hurriedly wrapped herself in a blanket and ran into the bathroom.
By the time the two of them came downstairs fully dressed, the children had already gathered around the dining table.
The kids had waited for Justin the previous evening without him returning, and upon seeing him this morning, one after another they gathered around him.
"Dad, why did you come home so late last night?" Grace tugged at Justin’s sleeve, and Justin, seeing this, picked Grace up into his arms.
"Some work wasn’t completed yesterday, so I was late." Justin responded tenderly.
It was only in front of Charlotte and the children that Justin would show such a side of himself.
"Dad, you work so hard." Grace wrapped her arms around Justin’s neck and whispered softly.
"Grace is really good, daddy isn’t tired at all." Justin smiled as he looked at Grace.
"Then I want to grow up fast, earn money when I’m older to support dad and mommy, so that dad and mommy can stay with us every day and won’t need to go out to work anymore."
Grace said, but hearing her words, Charlotte suddenly froze with what she was doing.
She pursed her lips tightly, turned to look at the other children, yet a wave of bitterness surged in Charlotte’s heart.
Her children were really too well-behaved and sensible.
Clearly, this was the age when they most needed their parents’ company.
After getting back together with Justin, Charlotte thought that the kids finally had their father’s companionship, believing that what they lacked in their lives was naturally replenished.
But now, Charlotte realized it wasn’t the title of ’dad’ or ’mom’ the children were missing, but the genuine care from their parents.
And yet she was still busy with work, with very little time to spend with the children.
She truly owed her children far too much.
While Charlotte was thinking this, a small hand hooked onto her finger.
"Mommy, what’s wrong? Is there something upsetting you?"
Olivia looked up at Charlotte with a worried expression on her clean, naive face.
Hearing her tender voice made Charlotte’s heart completely melt.
Charlotte crouched down, touched Olivia’s cheek and said, "No, mommy was just thinking about taking you to the amusement park in a few days with daddy."
Charlotte’s words attracted the attention of the other children, their eyes sparkled with excitement. Although they didn’t speak, they were already inquiring with Charlotte continuously.
Feeling Olivia’s grasp on her palm tighten slightly, Charlotte looked up to meet Justin’s gaze.
"We will go to the biggest amusement park and play everything you want."
Justin put Grace back on her chair and spoke out, "Dad and mom will go with you."
"Yay!" The children clapped their hands in high spirits.
"Let’s have breakfast."
Charlotte took Olivia by the hand to the dining table and stroked her hair.
The children obediently ate up the breakfast that was prepared.
Perhaps because they had just heard the news about Justin and Charlotte taking them to the amusement park, the children couldn’t hide the excitement on their faces.
