Cheat with my boyfriend best friend by Jane E.L.

Chapter 617 I Want to Be the Children's Stepmother

My initiatrve made Charlie feel ecstatic

But reason probably told him that he couldn't easily believe what I said

I had already anticipated his reaction, so after his gaze went from surprise to hesitation, I didn't avoid his scrutiny and straightforwardly told him, "If you think my attitude has changed too quickly, then I can also tell you that the person I most want to become a family with is not you, but Meteor."

I knew that the first half of this sentence would displease him, but I had to say it in order to be more truthful

Fortunately, I managed to steer the conversation towards the children. Charlie turned his head and looked at Meteor, who was still dozing off on the swing. His gaze softened, but he couldn't help but still harbor doubts about me

"Just for Meteor?"

"Otherwise, should I say it's for you?" I smiled and asked him, but there was a hint of ambiguity in my tone that even I found hard to bear, so I quickly brought up the previous topic again, "Seriously, I really like Meteor. Whether it was when I only saw him as the boss's son before, or now, when I want to become a family

with you all, I have given my wholehearted love to this child."

I looked towards Meteor and spoke. He seemed to hear a sound and opened his eyes. Curiously, he looked towards me and, after I gave him a

reassuring look, immediately understood that I was talking to his father. He obediently moved back to the swing and waited there

To be honest, this child truly made me feel both pity and fondness. If he wasn't Charlie's son, I believe we would have gotten along very well right from the beginning

But at this moment, I had to treat this innocent child as a tool, just like Charlie, and return to him the means of using children to evoke empathy that he had once used on me, unchanged

"Charlie, Meteor was a good child, he never caused trouble for anyone, and he was well-behaved and kind. But it was precisely because he was well-behaved and kind that he was more prone to having excessive thoughts. Especially as he grew older, the abnormal family

relationships would definitely have a significant impact on him."

"So you still only care about Meteor, but you have never thought about me."

Charlie and I locked eyes for a moment, and in the end, we arrived at such an absurd conclusion

Why should I consider the person who kidnapped me?

Although I thought so, I couldn't really say it. I had to maintain a calm demeanor and once again utter words that even I myself couldn't believe came out of my mouth

"T have not forgotten about you. IfI truly hadn't thought about our future together, I wouldn't have entertained the idea of becoming Meteor's

stepmother. Just think about it, for Meteor, his birth mother passed away early, and his stepmother is someone who 1s imprisoned within the family. Even going out together as a family of three and taking a family photo is a luxury. Isn't this absurd enough? What will Meteor think when he grows up? Don't you think this will have a huge impact on the child's upbringing?"

But I also don't know if I overestimated Meteor's position in Charlie's heart, or if the reasons I gave were still not enough to move him. In any case, he didn't feel very touched, and my words fell silently to the ground

There was a moment of frustration in my heart, and I looked back into Charlie's eyes. However, he averted his gaze and simply told me not to think too much for now, but to focus on the present moment instead. He mentioned that it

was better to do so, as Meteor hadn't yet developed any teenage psychological issues, although his stepmother seemed to be acting strangely

He said these words casually, but I secretly felt a little anxious. I didn't know where I went wrong in my thinking, to the point that I couldn't completely move Charlie, not even my own son

But no matter where the problem arose, this topic was brought up with great difficulty, and I could only continue to ask persistently while the atmosphere between Charlie and me was still relatively good

"So what about Meiling Company? Even if the child is not affected by this, as he grows up, he will have his own social circle, his own friends

If our relationship continues to be so abnormal, it will be difficult to keep it a secret. In case it is

exploited by someone in the future, both your and Meiling Company's reputation will be damaged."

I did not mention his so-called deep affectionate image, but every sentence reminded him why his brand was initially accepted by people
