Jamie froze for a moment, realizing it wasn’t a reprimand or her needing to apologize for something she had messed up.
“Well, why didn’t he just say so earlier?” she silently remarked.
She instantly relaxed and pulled out her phone, scrolling briefly before landing on a suggestion. “How about this place?”
Ben nodded. “That works. Also, pick Charlie up from preschool on the way. He doesn’t need to stay the whole day. We’ll take him with us after lunch to visit the family home.”
Jamie didn’t ask why they would be heading there, but the look on Ben’s face said enough. She had a hunch. Very few people could make Ben wear that expression, and the only one who came to mind was his father. This visit must have something to do with him.

After lunch, they headed to the Lucas family estate.
Although Charlie had visited before, this was his first time going with Jamie, and he was bursting with excitement. He fidgeted nonstop in the car, leaning this way and that.
Jamie finally reached her limit, pulling him gently into place. “Sit still, sweetheart. Stop squirming.”
Charlie immediately obeyed, blinking up at her. “Mommy, are we going to see Grandma this time?”
Now that he knew Ben’s true identity, Charlie also understood that the kind lady he had met before was actually his grandmother.
Jamie ruffled his hair, noticing it had grown longer. “Yes, we are. And after we see Grandma, how about we take you to get a haircut?”
Charlie didn’t mind the idea of a haircut. His thoughts were consumed with excitement about seeing his grandmother.

The car pulled up to the estate, but the atmosphere was far from what they had expected. Instead of a warm welcome, a heavy tension filled the air.
