"Mommy, could it be that you forgot today is your birthday?"
Hank originally wanted to present the bouquet in his hand to Charlotte, but what Charlotte said seed to shock him as if he heard sothing unbelievable.
Even when she was forced to sit on the sofa, Charlotte was still in a daze.
"Mommy, your expression now makes question who really forgot." Hank plopped down next to Charlotte, muttering.
"I..."
Charlotte looked at the arrangent in the living room, then at the brothers and children in front of her, and finally spoke a bit embarrassedly:
"Sorry, I think I really forgot."
However, by this ti, a bright smile had appeared on Charlotte’s face, and a warm feeling enveloped her heart.
Indeed, as long as she was with her family, Charlotte would feel imnsely happy no matter what.
"Mommy, mommy, this is the gift I prepared for you."
At this mont, Hank presented a gift box to Charlotte as if showing off a treasure, his eyes full of anticipation.
The other children were not to be outdone and gathered around Charlotte, all chattering as they gave her gifts.
Charlotte smiled and accepted the gifts from the children, which also included those from Grace and Olivia. Cyrus ntioned that the girls had started preparing the gifts a long ti ago, but they weren’t here now.
This made Charlotte’s eyes darken a bit.
Actually, it’s not surprising that Charlotte forgot her own birthday because there had been too many unexpected events lately.
Plus, with Grace suddenly falling ill and being hospitalized, how could Charlotte have the spare mind to think about anything else?
"Mommy..." Noticing the change in Charlotte’s mood, Jack opened his mouth.
"I visited Grace in the hospital today, and the doctor said her health is recovering well, and she’ll wake up soon," Jas gently patted Charlotte’s head, speaking softly.
"Mm, I know." Charlotte nodded and then reached out to hug the children close.
"Thank you, my darlings, mommy loves your gifts."
For Charlotte, no matter what the children gave her, it was invaluable.
"Charlotte, this is the gift from your fifth brother." Jas handed Charlotte a key at this mont.
Seeing this, Charlotte’s expression instantly beca inexplicable, and suddenly realizing sothing, she quickly raised her head and gestured for her eager brothers to stop.
"I won’t accept your gifts this year; just one birthday wish from each of you will do."
Compared to the children’s gifts that emphasized thoughtfulness, the brothers’ gifts focused on extravagance.
And receiving gifts had beco a nightmare for Charlotte.
"How can that be? The gifts are already prepared."
"Charlotte, the gift from your second brother is definitely the best."
"Nonsense, mine is the best."
Just as the atmosphere among the brothers was getting tense, there was a slight sound from the door.
Henry turned his head, then chuckled at Charlotte, "Looks like we’re not needed now."
In an instant, the brothers’ expressions beca quite elaborate.
At this mont, Charlotte’s gaze t Justin Battleson’s.
Justin stepped forward to Charlotte, and amidst the envious looks of all Charlotte’s brothers, he wrapped her in his embrace.
"From now on, your ti belongs to ."
