After arriving at the Jenson residence, he walked through the windy paths before arriving at the entrance of Harrick Villa.

Outside, he could vaguely hear the sound of high-pitched laughter within the villa.

That sounds like Zendy.

His expression softened as he envisioned Zendaya’s radiant smile. He stood by the door in silence, waiting to pick her up.

Ten minutes later, Gwendolyn and Cedrick came out with the children in tow.

Upon seeing Charles, Zendaya ran over to him to ask for a hug like usual.

“Uncle Charles!”

Charles crouched down and lifted Zendaya into his arms as she approached. He turned to Gwendolyn and Cedrick, addressing them, “Gwen, Mr. Jenson, Zendy is running late for school. We’ll be on our way.”

“Okay!” Gwendolyn responded.

Cedrick nodded in response.

Benedict, who was holding his father’s hand, pursed his lips in displeasure as he watched Zendaya and Charles leave, their laughter echoing in the air.

Sensing his discontent, Gwendolyn inquired, “Benny, would you like to go to kindergarten as well?”

Benedict shook his head. “I’m still sick. The IV drip and injections take up too much time, so I can’t attend kindergarten like Zendy.”

Scoffing, he continued, “Plus, I find it difficult to connect with kids my age. While they’re learning basic math, I’m already tackling more advanced Mathematical Olympiad questions for junior high. We don’t have any common topics to discuss.”

Gwendolyn understood what he was getting at.

“So you dislike Uncle Charles and don’t want to see him?”

Benedict grumbled, “He may be Zendy’s godfather, but I never accepted him as mine. I don’t want to see him around. It’s irritating how he shows up every day to take Zendy with him.”

Cedrick bent down and picked him up.

As Benedict spent most of his time in his sickbed, he seldom had the chance to be embraced by his father. Delighted, he wrapped his arms around Cedrick’s neck and nestled his head on the latter’s broad shoulder.

Gwendolyn ruffled the young child’s hair affectionately.

“Daddy, I’m glad you were the one who won Mommy’s heart. If it were Charles, I would’ve cut ties with him!”

Cedrick and Gwendolyn’s lips twitched.

At once, Cedrick corrected him, “If your mommy marries Charles, you won’t be their child. You’ll still be unborn because you are my and Gwenny’s child.”
