Chapter 1578

*

Jamie couldn't shake the strange feeling in her heart, like she had been set up somehow. Was it just her imagination?

Shaking her head, she walked into the kitchen. Behind her, Charlie immediately stopped wiping his tears and sneaked a glance at her as she busied herself. "Uncle Ben, did I do a good job just now?" Ben smirked. "Perfect."

The little boy and the grown man shared identical mischievous grins.

After lunch, Charlie clung to Ben, refusing to let him go.

Jamie wanted to intervene, but Ben glanced at his phone and said, "The meeting was canceled. It's fine. I have time."

And so, Ben ended up staying, playing with Charlie until evening.

By the time the sky darkened, even Jamie felt a bit dazed, realizing she had somehow let Ben stay the entire day without really noticing.

When she walked him to the door, Ben handed her a small velvet box. "This is for you."

""What is it?"

"Open it and see."

Hesitating, Jamie opened the box, and her breath caught. Inside was a ring.

The moment she saw it, the ordinary little box suddenly felt burning hot in her hands. She couldn't help but wonder if everything today had been carefully orchestrated by him.
