Chapter 1232: Chapter 1232: It’s Become a Bit Different
"Mommy Charlotte, Annie eats diligently every day and takes really good care of Aunt Annie; absolutely no slacking off."
On the other side of the video call, Olivia Thompson and Annie Anne sit side by side on the sofa, waving their little hands towards Charlotte Thompson.
"Annie, you’re such a sensible girl," Charlotte Thompson nodded towards Olivia with relief.
Then, the other children couldn’t wait to crowd around the computer screen to talk with Olivia who was in the video call.
"Annie, in a few days we’ll all go to visit Godmom."
"We’ll bring lots of delicious things for you and Aunt Annie, to help her recover quicker."
"That’s right, that’s right, we’ll all help take care of Aunt Annie."
Listening to this, Annie Anne curved her lips in great satisfaction: "What a bunch of obedient and sensible sweethearts. I’ll cook something delicious for you all then."
"Yay!"
Upon hearing about delicious food, naturally, Hank Thompson was the first to react with excitement.
However, he immediately thought of Annie Anne, who was still injured, so he quickly shook his head like a bobblehead.
"No, no, Godmom hasn’t fully recovered yet, we can’t let Aunt Annie overexert herself."
"Yeah, Godmom needs to rest a lot."
"Don’t worry, Godmom doesn’t have any serious issues now and has even taken on some work," Annie Anne spoke to comfort the children.
But as soon as Charlotte Thompson heard the word "work," she immediately asked, "Work? Your leg injury hasn’t healed yet, have you returned to the set for filming?"
Charlotte looked at Annie Anne with a hint of blame in her eyes, "Why run around without healing properly?"
"Oh, look how worried you are. It’s not a minor role on set, just a promotional appearance and an online interview show."
Annie Anne clarified her situation: "Today’s interview recording was entirely seated, so there were no issues."
"What does sitting have to do with still being injured? You should just rest well at home, unnecessarily worrying people."
As she spoke, Charlotte Thompson furrowed her brow.
She wasn’t sure if it was her imagination, but she felt that Annie Anne now seemed a little different from before.
However, seeing Annie Anne through the camera still wearing a gentle smile, Charlotte Thompson felt everything was just like it used to be.
Lost in thought, Charlotte didn’t hear what Grace Thompson had said.
"Mommy?"
It wasn’t until Grace Thompson tugged at Charlotte’s sleeve that Charlotte snapped back to attention.
"Hm? What’s up?"
Charlotte softened her voice, looking at the still-connected video call, and asked with some confusion.
"Godmom was asking when I was going to visit her so she can prepare in advance." Grace repeated very obediently the question she had just asked Charlotte.
"What are you thinking about? So absorbed in your thoughts?" Annie Anne teased.
"It’s nothing."
Charlotte shook her head and then pondered the issue Grace had inquired about, "Well, the weekend is in a couple of days. Would it be okay if I came to see you then?"
"Sure, I’ll wait for you and the children," Annie Anne smiled at Charlotte and then nodded gently.
The two of them chatted briefly more, and the remainder of the time was spent with the children chattering away to Olivia about recent amusing incidents.
As everyone took their turn speaking, time flew by quickly until Charlotte repeatedly urged the children, and they reluctantly said goodbye to Olivia.
