Unexpected Blessing After Divorce

Chapter 92 You Are Its Uncle

“That kind of woman?”

Christopher’s voice was soft and gentle. Those who didn’t know him would never have detected the change in his emotions.

However, the people in that room were also the ones closest to him. Naturally, they were very familiar with Christopher’s temperament.

Christopher seldom cared about anything. He was also the type to fool around all the time and always seemed nonchalant about everything in life.

This time, he gazed at his mother quietly with his dull gray eyes. The look on his face seemed extraordinarily serious.

If someone else other than Winnie were to say those things in Christopher’s face, he wouldn’t have continued sitting there calmly by now.

Winnie was momentarily stunned upon seeing his gaze.

Even though Christopher had been a mischievous kid since childhood and acted out rebelliously many times, he remained respectful to her. Never did he use this tone to talk to her at all.

But now, he questioned and talked back to her for the sake of a woman.

This thought made Winnie’s heart surge with sorrow, making her eyes redden immediately.

Having noticed this, Layla quickly shot a look at her father, Zachary.

Zachary patted his wife on the back of her hand while coaxing. “Christopher isn’t a kid anymore. He has his own principles when it comes to certain matters. We shouldn’t worry too much about him. Besides, isn’t Ken the patriarch of the family now?”

Winnie glared at Zachary while huffing coldly. She turned her face aside as she grabbed her handkerchief before turning away from everyone to dab her eyes.

She understood what Zachary said but couldn’t help but feel sad on the inside.

Winnie then remembered the idiom of how a mother could no longer influence her children once they were all grown up.

Sure enough, no matter how close Christopher was to her, he wouldn’t prioritize her anymore once he had a wife.

For a moment, no one spoke up at all. They cast their gazes on Kendrick instead as they waited for him to

decide.

“Come with me.” Suddenly, Kendrick got up and shot a glance in Christopher’s direction. Then, he turned on his heel and headed upstairs.
