Marry Ex's Uncle After Divorcement

Chapter 748 We Made Up

Since he knew that Charlie was his dad, he often drew Charlie into the family picture, which showed how much he liked him. However, now Charlie's image had collapsed in his mind. 'Everything has changed. He's no longer my good daddy, he thought to himself.

Unlike Ben, Leonard never acknowledged Charlie as his father because Charlie didn't treat Theresa well in his eyes.

As she looked at Ben's tearful eyes, Theresa furrowed her brow, remembering how strained her

relationship with Charlie had become lately. She had believed that she could take care of Leonard and Ben well. Although she hoped that her children wouldn't feel sad, things weren't as she had imagined. 'Ben is just a four-year-old child. Every conflict and argument between Charlie and I can have a profound impact on him.' With that in mind, Theresa hugged him, asking softly, "Do you miss your daddy?" Ben shook his head, denying, "No."

Theresa patted his back gently. "If you want to talk with him or play with him, just do it. I won't stop you."

Ben frowned, feeling sorry for Theresa. "He's a bad man. He has bullied you. And he is with a bad woman now."

"No," she replied. "Your dad knew few things before, so he made those mistakes. He should be punished for what he did wrong, and he has been punished. Everyone makes mistakes, right? Forgive him. Don't be mad at him anymore." She didn't care much about Charlie's thoughts, but her children cared too much

about him, so she spoke kindly of him.

Hearing Theresa's words, he opened his eyes wide. "But you will be unhappy."

"Why would I be unhappy?" she muttered. "I just want to see you happy. And the fact that he is your dad can't be changed. As for Sarah, that bad woman, he has told me that he won't marry her. They have nothing to do with each other."

"Really?" Ben looked skeptical.

Theresa nodded. "Yes, really. When your dad couldn't stand up on his own, that woman was mean to him, and he still holds a grudge against her. Why would he have a relationship with her? Trust me." Ben still asked, "Mom, are you lying to me?"

"No, why would I lie to you?" Theresa was confused.

Ben said, "If I call him daddy again, will I have to call the bad woman mommy? Will you still be my mommy?"

Theresa laughed, reaching out to wipe the tears off Ben's soft little face. "Who told you that? I will always be your only mommy. Oh, if you had to call someone else mommy, would you?"

"Of course not, I love you the most, Mommy."

"Mommy loves you too! How could I bear to abandon my favorite children? Oh, my silly boy, you stay up all night just because of this?"

Ben pursed his lips.

Looking at his worried face, she continued, "Your dad and I just had a fight before, but he knows he was wrong now, and we made up." To avoid hurting her son's feelings, she had to put it delicately. Ben exclaimed in surprise, "Really?"

"Absolutely," Theresa assured him. "If you don't believe me, I'll have him come over tomorrow morning and tell you himself. You know he wouldn't listen to me if things weren't good between us, right?" Ben nodded in agreement. "Yes."

"Good," she said, patting his hand. "So just go to sleep now. You can see if he comes here tomorrow. Alright?" As she lowered his pillow a bit, she couldn't help but shake her head at her little worrywart. Finally, Ben settled into bed. Though his eyes were still red, Theresa's reassurance had done wonders to lift his spirits, and he even looked a bit excited at the prospect of seeing his father the next day.
