Chapter 1059: Chapter 1059: Mysterious Man
Charlotte Thompson’s voice instantly relieved the two children, and they turned around to see her walking over.
Hank and Jack didn’t care about anything else and ran directly to Charlotte’s side, as if they had found some comfort.
The man in the suit lifted his eyes to watch Charlotte approaching, a flash of astonishment crossing his gaze before his attention returned to the children at Charlotte’s side.
"Are these two little fellows your children?" the man politely inquired.
"Of course, if they’ve disturbed you, I’ll take them to apologize. Children are mischievous and unknowing," Charlotte said with a faint smile on her face.
Just as the man sized her up, she was also discreetly observing him.
"It’s nothing, especially the little boy—he’s at the most mischievous age." The man smiled and then looked at Charlotte with some surprise.
"What is your occupation, ma’am, to have so many children around you! And you seem somewhat familiar to me."
Charlotte pursed her lips and smiled, about to say something, but Grace Thompson had already tugged at her hand.
"Mommy, Grace loves the toys over there, Grace wants to go buy toys."
"Excuse me, sir, I need to take the children to look at the toys," Charlotte politely smiled at the man, then turned and left with the children.
"Goodbye."
The man watched Charlotte’s retreating figure, a cold smirk crossing his eyes.
Then he turned, pulled a handkerchief out of his pocket, and wiped his hands, as well as the leg that Jack had bumped into.
After what had just happened, Hank and Jack instantly became very well-behaved, following closely beside Charlotte.
"Mommy, who was that man just now?" Hank muttered softly.
Just thinking about the man’s smile made Hank a little scared.
He was just an ordinary uncle, why would he make him feel that way?
"Mommy doesn’t know who that man was, but Mommy knows that children shouldn’t run around carelessly."
Just as she finished tidying Grace’s dress a moment ago, the two boys, Hank and Jack, had run off without a trace.
Luckily, this was a high-end membership shopping area with a reliable security system, and additionally, Charlotte had a bodyguard following her from Stardust Garden when she came out.
Nonetheless, the children running around carelessly still made Charlotte worried.
"Mommy, we know we were wrong."
"Yeah, Mommy, we won’t dare to do it again."
Both children admitted their mistakes, and naturally, Charlotte would not be angry with them.
"That’s good to know. It’s okay to play and roughhouse, but you must be careful and stay within Mommy’s sight."
She tapped each of their puffy cheeks, which were as round as pufferfish.
However, thinking back to the man they had encountered, Charlotte also felt a sense of unease.
She felt she had seen him somewhere before. Probably a celebrity who comes here to shop.
Thinking this, Charlotte was soon approached by Chad, who seemed to have found some clothes to his liking.
They had spent almost an entire afternoon shopping in the mall, and the children were returning home with their arms full.
Looking at the children’s cheering faces, Charlotte felt very content.
"Mommy, do you think Grandpa Lu will like the gift from me and Chad?!" On the way back to Stardust Garden, Jack held a box in his arms and curiously asked Charlotte.
"As long as it’s chosen with care by Jack and Chad, I believe Grandpa Lu will like it."
Charlotte stroked Jack’s head and smiled softly.
Her gaze swept around, eventually settling on Olivia Thompson.
In her hands was the carefully selected gift for Annie Anne.
Charlotte exhaled slowly, wondering how Annie was doing now.
