Charlotte finished explaining the situation succinctly, looking at the sowhat bewildered expressions of the two little ones in front of her, she couldn’t help but reproach herself for discussing such matters with them.
However, Jack thought for a mont and then realized: "Mommy, are you worried that soone will try to take and Chad away tomorrow?"
"No one can take you two away from ," Charlotte said earnestly.
"But this matter does concern both of you, and Mommy won’t hide it."
"But brother and I have always been with you, Mommy, since we were little. You adopted us and raised us, so we are Mommy’s children, and there is no one else," Chad said softly.
"I know," Mommy Charlotte reassured them with a nod, pulling Jack into her embrace as well.
"Mommy knows that so things might be difficult for you to understand; frankly, I didn’t want to tell you. But Mommy is worried that, without knowing, you might be deceived by bad people."
"How could that be? Our biological mother is you, Mommy, there won’t be anyone else," Chad said with utmost seriousness.
But as soon as Charlotte spoke these words, Jack and Chad were clear in their hearts.
They feared that tomorrow at the Ross Family’s party, soone would co for the two of them.
Charlotte’s approach was like giving them a vaccination in advance.
In front of a few of their closest children and Justin Battleson, Charlotte inford them of their origin, which was much better than finding out in front of countless strangers tomorrow.
For soone as sensitive as Chad, if a commotion were to happen tomorrow, the hurt inflicted on him would likely not be insignificant.
Now with Charlotte’s words, he was ntally prepared, but this also made him depend on Charlotte even more without realizing it.
However, what Charlotte didn’t know was that the children had secretly found out about the "special ans" she ntioned.
The children fell into silence for a mont.
"How could soone do such a thing..." Jack hadn’t anticipated that this was the nature of the situation.
Because of this, Adam Ross’s image plumted in the hearts of Jack and Chad.
Nevertheless, as an aging father, Adam Ross couldn’t figure out why the two children who used to be close to him suddenly beca dismissive and indifferent towards him.
Charlotte had been worried about Annie’s situation all along, and after soothing the children to sleep, she called Oliver Hudson to inquire about Olivia’s condition.
"She’s been by the bedside the whole ti," Oliver Hudson reported honestly.
"This late?"
According to the usual routine of the children, they should all be in bed by now.
"Annie hasn’t woken up, and she refuses to leave the bedside," Oliver’s voice carried an added touch of distress.
She was his biological daughter, after all.
Naturally, Charlotte knew how Oliver felt and said no more, but then Oliver took the phone to Olivia’s bedside, handing it to her.
"Is this Mommy Charlotte?"
Olivia’s voice was hoarse, and when she looked up at Oliver, she softened her voice considerably.
Oliver nodded.
Seeing this, Olivia quickly took the phone and called out "Mommy."
"Annie, do you realize how worried Mommy is right now? I know you want to stay by Annie’s side until Mommy wakes up, but you also have to look after your own health. If you fall ill, not only will I be sad, but Annie and your dad Justin will be heartbroken too."
