At that ti, she was still keeping it a secret from the Thompson Family and hadn’t told them that she and Justin Battleson had gotten back together.
How was she found out?
Back then, she was on a phone call with her second brother, Joshua Thompson.
"Second brother, don’t worry, my life here is very good."
After returning to her country, Charlotte maintained contact with the Thompson family, and because it was Joshua’s birthday that day, she had called to wish him well.
"Really? Is it that good? Why do I feel like you’ve lost weight?" Joshua examined Charlotte carefully through the cara.
Charlotte couldn’t help but laugh silently; why would every brother say she lost weight whenever she called them?
"Rest assured, second brother, I’m not a child anymore, and I can definitely take care of myself." Charlotte smiled gently.
"Make sure you tell if anything happens; don’t worry, I’ve got your back. I’ll make sure those who dare bully you don’t get away with it."
As he talked, Joshua clenched his fist.
"Got it, second brother."
Amused by Joshua’s gesture, Charlotte suddenly seed to rember sothing, and struck her forehead lightly.
"Wait, I almost forgot."
While speaking, Charlotte walked over to a nearby bookshelf, seemingly searching for sothing.
Because of the cara angle, Joshua could not fully see Charlotte’s movents but could hear her mutter softly to herself.
This filled Joshua’s heart with curiosity, but even so, he did not prompt Charlotte to hurry.
Of course, Charlotte didn’t make him wait too long; she ca back shortly with a box in hand.
"What is this?" Joshua asked, looking at the box in Charlotte’s hands.
"These are the kids’ photo albums."
Saying this, Charlotte opened the box and indeed took out several photo albums, flipping through them in front of the cara.
"Grace has gotten into photography all of a sudden, and many pictures were taken by her."
Although Charlotte said it casually, the photos in the album were mostly about the children, naturally taken by Charlotte at various tis.
"The last ti we talked, grandpa said he missed the kids, so I wanted to take more photos to send to him to cheer him up. I ant to send them along with your birthday gift, but I forgot."
"Grandpa will certainly love them if he sees them," Joshua said with a gentle smile upon looking at the photos in the album.
As the two looked through the album via the phone’s cara, a faint noise ca from Charlotte’s side, and suddenly an arm appeared next to her.
Then, Joshua watched as a man appeared in front of the cara.
And he leaned over his sister’s head, leaving an extrely tender kiss.
Joshua also watched his sister, who seed to have grown accustod to such affectionate gestures from the man.
"The album has gotten this thick?"
The man’s deep voice ca through as he looked down at the album, and his whole face was presented clearly to Joshua.
Yes, that was Justin Battleson.
Justin quickly realized the extra attention and looked up, eting Joshua’s bright, expressive eyes in the cara.
For a mont, Justin was taken aback.
For a mont, Joshua was irritated.
"Yes, I’ve taken so many without realizing..."
Suddenly, Charlotte also swiftly diverted her gaze from the album.
She and Justin exchanged glances, but in each other’s eyes, she could see an emotion that mirrored her own.
This was bad.
