My Ex-Wife Is A Big Shot In Disguise

Chapter 222

Charlie was hiding under the table with his big eyes wide and tilted his head slightly as if he was puzzled.

The adults were really strange. They were sad, but they pretended that nothing happened.

Although the coffee smelled quite fragrant, it did not taste good. Why did Serena have to frown and drink it? If she wanted to try, she could add some sugar. If she didn't like it, why did she have to force herself? Charlie looked curiously at the woman sitting on the couch not far away.

Serena was also looking at Charlie. The moment she saw his face, her heart was in turmoil. Her face was filled with shock. "Why are you here?"

Serena put down her coffee cup and hurried over to the table where the coffee machine was. She bent down and looked worriedly at Charlie under the table. "Come out quickly. It's so uncomfortable to stay there!"

Serena could not hide the heartache in her eyes.

Although she didn't know why Charlie was hiding there, she could guess that he had a conflict with his family and wanted to hide.

The space was so small that even a child would feel uncomfortable if they stayed for too long. If Charlie injured himself, or worse, if he hit his head, that could be bad.

Charlie could have hidden everywhere. Why did he have to hide in such a small corner? Serena's tone subconsciously turned serious. "Hurry up and come out. You can't stay here forever."

Charlie had originally planned to crawl out.

The table was small. It was easier to hide in the Daves family's residence.

However, when Charlie heard Serena's tone, he suddenly did not want to come out, so he shrank his head back. He looked at Serena stubbornly.

Serena was also stunned. She had seen that Charlie was about to come out just now. Why did he go back?

Helpless, Serena could only kneel and coax Charlie gently. "Charlie, it's not comfortable to stay there. Do you want to come out and sit? Other than me, no one else comes in. No one will notice you if you hide here and sulk."

Charlie snorted softly. He had already recognized her. She was the woman that his aunt had said his father liked.

She was so fierce. If his father married her, she would beat him up and scold him every day. If they had a baby in the future, they would not want him.

Charlie felt even more aggrieved.

Just as Serena was about to carry him out in exasperation, Charlie spoke in all seriousness, "My father won't marry you."

His tone was serious.

Serena stopped what she was doing. Her expression was also unnatural for a moment, but she returned to normal a moment later. "The difference between me and Mr. Daves is very wide. I would never expect Mr. Daves to marry me. Even if Mr. Daves gets married in the future, he will choose a mother with a suitable tus for you. She will love you and be compatible with Mr. Daves. You don't have to worry

about me. Besides, it's not something a child like you should care about."

"Why shouldn't I care? If my father marries you, you'll be my mother. Of course I have to care." Charlie was extremely serious.

That was enough to tell Serena why Charlie hid himself.NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.

It was probably because the woman heard the rumors about them in the company and argued with John. Charlie heard something that he shouldn't have heard, so he ran out.

Serena did not know how Charlie would feel if he found out that she was his biological mother in the future.

It was probably as John had said. How could a person who had abandoned her child be qualified to be his mother?

Serena's lips curved into a wry smile. "Charlie, you don't want me to be your mother?"

Charlie spoke in a serious tone, "What do you think? What right do you have to be my mother?"

Serena's face suddenly turned pale.

She did not expect that the child she

had borne for nine months would

one day say such words to her. It was also fate that made a fool of them She had personally left Charlie at the door of the Daves family. How was she qualified to be his mother?

As John said, a person like her was not worthy of being a mother.

But what could Serena do? If she could raise Charlie back then, she would not have abandoned him.

Serena just didn't want him to suffer. She was certain the Daves family would take good care of him, so she sent Charlie to them.

However, Serena had never thought that one day, her biological child would say such things to her. What right did she have to be his mother? What right did she have to give birth to him but not raise him? Serena's eyes reddened slightly.

Charlie did not expect the woman in front of him to have such an expression. It was as if he had bullied her.

Charlie suddenly felt a little sad.

He crawled out from under the table with his short arms. Charlie took out

a tissue from his pocket and handed it to Serena. "Don't cry. I just don't know you. I don't want you to be my mother. If you treat me well, promise you won't be as fierce to me as before. It's not like I can't consider it."

Charlie had thought about his aunt's words while hiding. If his father liked this woman, he could make concessions. After all, his father needed company.

Charlie could not be so selfish.

As for the mother who had given birth to him, she had abandoned him at the entrance of the family residence since Charlie was born. She definitely did not like him and did not want him.

If his biological mother didn't love him and didn't want him, why should he go looking for someone who disliked him?

As long as Charlie had a mother who treated him well, that was enough.

Serena didn't expect Charlie to say that. For a moment, she didn't know what to say and stood rooted to the ground.

The tears that Serena had been holding back for a long time fell.

Charlie let out a long sigh. He unfolded the tissue and gently wiped away the tears on Serena's face. He even complained, "Alas, women are troublesome."

Serena blushed when she heard that. She did not have the time to continue enjoying Charlie wiping her tears. She took the tissue from his hand and wiped herself.

Serena restrained her emotions very quickly. Other than the redness in her eyes, it was impossible to tell that she had cried just now.

Charlie stared at her and added in a serious tone, "You can't cry so easily in the future. Otherwise, I definitely won't agree to my father marrying you."

A woman who loved to cry would have to be coaxed every day after they were married. That would not do.

Serena did not expect Charlie, who had yet to reach her waist, to say such words in such an adult tone. As expected of one of the Daves family.

The gloominess in her heart dissipated a lot. She could not help but smile. "Don't worry. Your father won't marry me. I won't marry him either. What are you thinking about with your little head?"

Serena took a disposable paper cup and poured warm water for Charlie. "Come. Drink some warm water. You can sit for a while longer, but yout have to go back. If you hide for too long you'll make your family worry. This is wrong."

Charlie knew that he had made a mistake, but he did not speak. He held the cup of water and was about to drink when the door of the lounge was pushed open.

The man who entered the room had a gloomy expression.
