Chapter 741: Once

The man took a bite, then smiled and looked at George Stephens.

The father and son’s relationship was harmonious.

Charlotte Smith watched George Stephens skip around, sometimes coming over to eat something, and at other times whispering to Robert Stephens. Together, the two seemed to have endless things to discuss, like reunited lovers.

Her mood gradually relaxed in this gentle atmosphere. She sat on the ground, watching George while slowly eating.

In the blink of an eye, more than an hour had passed.

Charlotte Smith considered that in another hour or two, it would be time to take Robert Stephens back.

He was a patient, and though he seemed in good spirits today, ultimately he was still unwell and couldn’t stay out too long.

Finally, she suggested that they watch a movie in the amusement park before heading back.

There were only three people in the entire cinema.

George Stephens handed her a big box of popcorn and went to sit with Robert, sharing the same cup of cola with him.

The man sat between them, glanced down at her.

Charlotte was nearly engulfed by the enormous box of popcorn. Seeing Robert looking at her, she softly asked, "Do you want some?"

The man shook his head and said to her, "Spend more time with him."

"..." Charlotte said, "Overindulgent mothers spoil their children."

"If you don’t spend time with him now, there won’t be time later," Robert said to her. "You never know when they’ll grow up."

She never thought that one day Robert would be the one to talk to her about parenting.

She slowly raised her head, gazing at the perfectly contoured face of the man under the dim cinema lights. Because of the soft lighting, his gaze seemed rather tender.

Robert, do you know, I have a lot of questions I want to ask you.

But I dare not break the current peace.

Maybe, when you’re better, when we have time alone, you can answer me?

In the darkness, Charlotte slowly exhaled.

Years of pent-up emotions suddenly settled down at this moment.

She wasn’t as hateful or resentful as before. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢

As long as he is willing to explain...

After all, back then, they were both so young...

Maybe he just didn’t want to have children so early, or maybe she had given him some misunderstanding.

She slowly put a piece of popcorn in her mouth, the sweet and creamy aroma spreading on her palate, her thoughts swayed gently in the darkness, an unprecedented tranquility.

George Stephens tilted his body, fell asleep leaning on Robert.

Charlotte glanced at him, wanting to reach over and carry him for fear of Robert’s discomfort, but the man pressed her hand, "It’s okay."

Her hand was gently pressed by his cool fingertips, and just as she was about to withdraw it, he slowly closed his cold hand, wrapping her smaller fingers completely in his palm.

He just held her fingers like that, placing them on his knee.

"..." Charlotte’s mind went blank for a second, then her heart thundered, she didn’t know what to do.

The man raised his hand, watching calmly ahead in the darkness, looking every bit the upright gentleman, totally unlike a hypocrite who would secretly hold a woman’s hand in the cinema.

No, he was never a gentleman...

For some reason, Charlotte remembered a long time ago when Robert took her to a cinema, and while watching a movie, secretly slid his hand under her skirt...
