Beyond the Divorce by Third Blossom

"Like mother, like daughter! How could Melanie turn out good with a mother like Abby?" I said lightly.

I couldn't help but wonder what kind of person this little one would grow into. He could be a good kid if he had a good influence. Without proper guidance, he might turn out crooked.

While I was pondering, his little hand grabbed my hair and brought it toward his mouth.

"Chlo, what if Matthew doesn't want him? What will we do then? This kid's pitiful and I've grown attached to him after caring for him. He's a small life, after all."

Myra looked at me with concern. "But... I..."

I understood what Myra meant. She couldn't keep Charlie with her even if she liked him. After all, his origins were unclear.

"Don't overthink it. We just have to pull through. I'll find a way to have the police investigate and look for his biological father. Having him recognized by his own family is the best outcome." I looked at the little one in my arms. He didn't feel unfamiliar.

I couldn't carry him with my left hand, so I could only hold him with my right. He kept touching my hanging left hand, looking curious.

"That's not a problem. It's just heartbreaking for Charlie to have such a poor excuse for a mom..." Myra's words were only half-said, but I understood what she meant.
