Win My Forsaken Ex-wife Back Novel

Chapter 178 Try to Please Her 1/4 The next morning , Charlotte was jolted awake by a sensation in her arms .

When she opened her eyes , she found Mabel lying beside her , struggling to wiggle her way up .

Surprised , Charlotte exclaimed , Sweetheart , what are you doing here ? As soon as Mabel saw her awake , she froze .

Ms.

Lottie , did I wake you ? Im so sorry .

No , Charlotte quickly reassured her .

I woke up a while ago .

I was just curious about what you were up to .

Mabel blinked , her eyes wide .

Ms.

Lottie , I couldnt sleep last night and overheard some things .

Charlottes heart raced immediately .

This was the Hardwick Villa , after all .

If anyone caught Mabel wandering around , it could lead to trouble .

Mabel hesitated before sharing what shed overheard .

As Charlotte listened , she couldnt help but find it amusing .

Did Camille really think she wasnt her biological daughter ? Did she not see the resemblance ? Chapter 178 Try to Please Her 2/4 Charlotte looked much like Camille ; anyone could tell they were mother and daughter at a glance .

Camille actually didnt think she was her daughter ? Does she hate me that much ? Charlotte thought , her heart sinking , and her expression turned cold momentarily .

Sweetheart , dont take it seriously , she said softly , running her fingers through Mabels hair .

If youre not happy here , we can move to Rose Villa or go stay with Diana , okay ? Mabel shook her head .

I want to stay and protect you .

Touched , Charlotte pulled Mabel into an embrace and kissed her on the forehead .

Just then , Julius walked in , the sight instantly tightening his lips into a thin line .

He stepped forward and said to Mabel , My mom needs to wash up and have breakfast .

Let her go ! Mabel let out a small snort before planting a kiss on Charlottes cheek .

Ms.

Lottie , see you later .

Okay , Charlotte replied , watching Mabel leave before turning her attention to Julius .

I have a question for you , she said , her expression hardening and her tone losing its previous softness .

Julius suddenly felt nervous , gripping the hem of his shirt .

What is it ? Chapter 178 Try to Please Her Are you trying to please me ? Charlotte asked .

3/4 I … Julius instinctively wanted to deny it , embarrassed at the thought .

Hed never tried to please anyone before , yet here he was , making an effort for Charlotte .

He pressed his lips together , unable to meet her gaze .

Why ? Charlotte pressed on in confusion .

You were so cold to me before and even wanted me to divorce your dad .

Julius fell silent .

He couldnt quite articulate his feelings .

In short , seeing Mabel receive the affection he once had made him unhappy , and he wanted it back .

To him , that love should belong to him alone .

Noticing his silence , Charlotte let out a soft sigh .

Dont bother anymore .

I wont respond to you .

To me , youre just a stranger .

Just be yourself .

Her rejection stung , and Julius eyes suddenly brimmed with tears .

Why ? he blurted out .

Youre so nice to other kids .

Why arent you like that with me ? Seeing him cry , Charlotte felt calm .

Im gentle with Mabel because shes good to me .

I can be good to you too … Julius started to say , but as memories of his previous behavior flooded back , he fell silent , tears streaming down his cheeks .

Chapter 178 Try to Please Her 4/4 Just then , Camille walked in and , spotting Julius in tears , rushed over to comfort him .

Julius , whats wrong ? Did your mom scold you ? Dont listen to her ; shes a bad person .

Ill talk to her , okay ? Write your comment
