Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn’t Easy chapter 2024

Charlotte froze when she heard Jim’s voice ring out from behind her. She put down the phone, regained her composure, and lifted her head to glance at him. “What are you talking about, Jim?”

There was a twinge of hurt on her face. “Do you think I lied to you?”

She bit her lip as tears slid down her cheeks. Staring at him, she spoke, sounding like she was choked with tears, “Jim, I narrowly escaped death when giving birth to Shelly, but for some reason, you think I’m lying to you and that I’m not Shelly’s birth mother at all. Is that what you think after all?”

Tears brimmed in her eyes as she asked, “What did you hear from other people? You’re right, I don’t appear to be at all concerned about Shelly as I should’ve, but this is all your fault, isn’t it?”

She lifted her head to fixate her tearful gaze on Jim’s face and whimpered, “When Shelly was born, you forbade me from seeing her because you were worried I wouldn’t be able to take good care of her.

“Not only that, but as soon as she was born, you told me to leave Merchant City and handed her over to Christopher to look after her.

“You told me that Christopher is a doctor, and he also has experience taking care of his daughter, so you’d feel more reassured to have him take care of Shelly.

“After that, Christopher brought Shelly with him when he flew to Banyan City to find Bonnie, and…”

She sniffed and said with a sorrowful look, “Bonnie was the one who had come up with Shelly’s name, and as her birth mother, I couldn’t help but be devastated by all this.

“She’s my daughter, but for some reason, Bonnie was given all the credit! How do you think I feel? Also,”

She let out an exhale and added, “You’re suspecting that I’m not Shelly’s mother based on the way I behaved toward her yesterday, right?”

She wiped her tears and sniffed, “Well, you’re wrong. From the moment Shelly was born, I had never been given a chance to bond with her, and because of this, I can’t help feeling distanced from my own daughter…

“Maybe you’re right; maybe it was my fault. I shouldn’t have neglected her just because

I never had the chance to bond with her.
