The Cherished Wife by Chweety

Chapter 911

Tania rushed upstairs and caught Peter trying to calm down a sobbing Brandon. She scrunched her eyebrows. "What's going on here?"

She swooped in, scooped Brandon into her arms, and cradled him close. Her expression was the picture of concern. "Shh... It's okay, Brandon. Mommy's got you. What's the matter, sweetie?

Tania did not buy it and glanced over at Charles and Steven. "Bro..."

Charles chimed in, "Peter's telling the truth. We all rushed over when we heard the crash. You know, guys like us are clueless with kids!" He winked at Steven, who smirked and said, "Looks like Peter's not winning any 'Dad of the Year' awards today!" Tania was speechless, and so was Peter.
