CEO’s Tears Over Pregnancy Test Discovery

Chapter 1574

Jamie quickly said, "No, Mommy's not upset. Why would you think that, Charlie?"

Charlie leaned into her touch as she gently patted his head to comfort him.

"But Mommy doesn't seem as happy as before. Why is that?"

"Because grown-ups always have a lot on their minds," Jamie said, looking at his innocent face. She didn't know how else to explain, so she left it at that.

It was true. What else could it be but worries?

Charlie seemed to understand a little, though not entirely. He grabbed her hand and said earnestly, "Then I hope Mommy won't be sad. I'll share half of my happiness with you!" Jamie couldn't help but laugh. Her mood instantly brightened.

After playing with Charlie for a while, he ran off on his own, leaving Jamie thinking he probably couldn't sit still. She didn't worry since he usually didn't go far. But Charlie had other plans. He went straight to the bedroom door.

"Uncle Ben, I did what you said, but Mommy still won't tell me. What should I do?" Charlie asked, wrapping his arms around Ben's neck, his face full of concern.

Ben tapped his nose lightly and said, "That's already great, Charlie. If you made Mommy smile, you've done an amazing job."

Charlie beamed at his words, his worries vanishing as quickly as they had come.

But the simplicity of a child's happiness wasn't something adults could easily share.

Jamie wasn't able to let go of her troubles so easily. And seeing her upset only deepened Ben's own concern.
