Chapter 1681

After confirming the time, Jamie picked up Charlie and headed to Nina's house.

Recent events had taken a toll on Nina, and she looked visibly tired. When she opened the door, she welcomed Jamie with a smile and handed her a glass of water. "Come in, have a seat."

"I'm sorry I wasn't there for you during such a critical time," Jamie said, her voice tinged with guilt as she noticed Nina's weary expression.

Nina gave a smile, exhaling softly as she sat beside Jamie. "Don't be. There's no need for formality between us. It'd feel out of place." Jamie offered a few comforting words, but Nina quickly shifted her attention to Charlie, who had been quietly observing.

Charlie blinked and said, "I heard Orion hasn't been feeling well. I brought him a gift to cheer him up."

Nina smiled warmly and pointed upstairs. "He's in his room. He's been spending most of his time up there since... well, you know."

Jamie understood completely. She gently patted Charlie's head. "Why don't you go find him and play for a bit?"

Charlie nodded enthusiastically and ran upstairs, clutching his gift. Jamie watched him go before turning back to Nina.
