Charlotte reached out to help Justin Battleson smooth out the wrinkles on his coat, then looked up at him.
This news naturally brought joy to Justin’s heart, and not just from Charlotte’s side. Justin had also been sending people to search for a compatible heart for Grace Thompson.
After all, in any case, he wanted his daughter to recover quickly.
"Are you going to the company right away?"
Watching Justin, who was already neatly dressed, Charlotte couldn’t help but ask.
Justin nodded slightly, but also sighed a bit: "There are so matters at the company that need my imdiate attention, so I can’t take you and the kids to the hospital. Plus, there are a few business deals to connect with; I might be very busy for a while."
"Why not have breakfast before you go?" Charlotte looked at Justin with so concern.
Justin reached out and tucked the hair hanging beside Charlotte’s cheek behind her ear, softly saying: "It’s fine. If you encounter anything at the hospital, you can call right away."
"Okay, be careful on the road." Charlotte responded.
Then Justin greeted the children before he finally lifted his foot and left the villa.
Watching Justin’s back, Charlotte gently frowned.
Charlotte sighed and turned back to the dining table, but Grace, as if she discovered sothing, leaned next to Charlotte.
"Mom!" The voice of this surprised exclamation made Charlotte suddenly nervous.
"What’s wrong, honey? Is there sothing..."
Before Charlotte could finish her sentence, Grace grabbed her left hand and pointed at the ring on her middle finger, excitedly saying:
"Mom, you never used to wear rings before! And this diamond ring is really gorgeous!"
Grace’s words also attracted the attention of the children, who crowded around, instantly surrounding Charlotte.
"Mom, is this the ring Dad gave you? Why didn’t we know? You haven’t had a wedding; isn’t it at weddings that rings are exchanged?"
Hank tilted his head and asked a series of questions, leaving Charlotte a little unsure of how to respond.
Grace quickly interjected: "A ring on the middle finger ans engagent."
He then raised his head again and winked at Charlotte.
"Mom, did Dad propose to you?"
"I never knew you had detective skills." Charlotte reached out and pinched Grace’s cheek, speaking with a light laugh.
"Mom, don’t change the subject. When did Dad propose to you? Why didn’t we know? I didn’t expect you two to keep it a secret from us."
Grace held Charlotte’s hand, asking earnestly.
"Was it like how it’s done in TV shows, with a sea of flowers and lots of balloons floating up?" Olivia asked with eyes full of hopeful inquiry.
"Yes, and a romantic candlelit dinner." Grace chid in with a smile.
Upon hearing these words, Charlotte subtly pursed her lips.
But thinking of what happened last night, Charlotte actually found it a bit amusing.
"I can’t believe Dad kept it from us; it’s really too much!" Grace said with so resentnt.
While Grace and Olivia were discussing the romantic parts of the proposal, Hank clapped his hands.
"That’s great! Might it not be long before we can attend Mom’s wedding!"
