Chapter 1553

At dinner time, Estelle and Jonathan weren’t around, so Emily cooked just for her and Kya.

After dinner, they played games, took baths, and listened to bedtime stories, just like any other night. Except tonight Charlie was missing, which made them feel something was off. Kya kept asking, “Where’s Uncle Charlie?”

“It’s already dark; why isn’t Uncle Charlie home yet?”

When it was time for bed, Charlie texted Emily. [Did Kya ask about me?]

Looking at Kya with her big round eyes on the bed, Emily couldn’t help but chuckle. [Yeah, she asked about you.]

Charlie texted again, [What about you? Do you miss me?]
