Crawling Back To Her Series Redemption and Refuse novel Chapter 122

Book10 Chapter11.

And as soon as she returned, she swept away all of Charles and Aaron's attention.

Al those familial bonds I might have had and the love I had never received were taken from me without the slightest hesitation.

On Aaron's birthday, she announced that she had prepared a grand surprise for him. Without a second thought, Aaron dashed toward her, leaving me behind.

Charles said Vanessa still didn't like me, so he wouldn't bring me along.

He promised he'd bring Aaron back before sunset to celebrate my birthday with me.

But that day, they didn't return.

Until midnight, Charles called to say that Aaron had played too hard and fallen asleep. He didn't want to wake him, so they were resting outside.

In the stillness of the night, I sat at the window for what felt like an eternity.

I remembered Samantha's last words, holding my hand with sadness, asking, "What will you do if no one treats you well in the future?"

Grandma, I no longer like celebrating my birthday.

Out of politeness, I let Charles and Aaron in and pour them some ice water.

I make some drinks for the two little ones and turn on the TV, tuning it to a children's channel before leading Charles to the gazebo in the yard.

"It's beautiful here," he remarks, almost awkwardly.

"Thanks for the compliment." I cut to the chase, "If you have something to say, just say it."

"I notice you don't have any other men around you right now," Charles says, "If you don't mind, could we remarry?"

I stare at him, speechless.
