Chapter 1599
When Magdalen received a call from Estelle to gather for a meet-up, she wanted to invite Morrison. However, he
was busy with a meeting, so she drove to pick up Emily and Kya first.
Arriving at the 9th Mansion, Magdalen carried Kya into the private room. Charlie, Carson, and the others had
already arrived, and they looked a bit surprised when they saw Emily walk in with Kya.
They had thought it was just going to be a small gathering, but they didn’t expect Emily to come along.
“Hasn’t Estelle arrived yet? Magdalen looked around.
Carson walked over, chuckling, “Jonah is picking her up from the film studio, but there’s a traffic jam. They’ll be a
bit late.”
He stretched out his hand to pick up Kya. “Come play with me, I’ve got some tasty treats for you.”
Kya saw Charlie and a look of pure joy spread across her face. But remembering Emily’s words, she didn’t run over

Emily watched as Kya was carried away by Carson. When she turned to look at Charlie, their eyes met, and she
quickly looked away.
“Emily!”
Amiee came over, “Sit over here!”
“Amiee?” Magdalen extended her hand, I’m Magdalen, Estelle’s friend. She often talks about you.”
Mentioning Estelle softened Amiee’s normally stem expression. She shook hands with Magdalen, “Ms. Sampson,
I’ve heard so much about you!”
Magdalen laughed, “What exactly have you heard about me? That I’m rude and unreasonable?”
Amice was taken aback, “Of course not!”
“Just kidding!” Magdalen flashed a bright smile and walked further into the room with Emily and Amiee.
Meanwhile, Carson had placed Kya next to Charlie and asked Andrew to grab some candies and pastries that kids
usually like.
Charlie held Kya in his arms, his face softened, “Why didn’t you call out to me?”
“Uncle Charlie!” Kya murmured, clinging onto his shoulders. She buried her face in his chest, locking a bit upset
Charlie felt a pang in his heart, and held Kya tighter, “Tm sorry, I’ve been too busy lately to visit you.”
Tears welled up in Kya’s eyes, “Mommy said you won’t come to see me anymore. Is that true?”
“No!” Charlie gently patted her head, “How could I not visit you? Once I’m done with my work, I’ll come over to play
with you.”
“I want to hear your stories.”
“Sure!” Charlie smiled, “By the way, the cuckoo is all healed up now. Grandma said you should come over to see it.
Would you like to?”
Kya’s eyes sparkled, “Yes!”
“Then, when we have time, I’ll take you home to see the cuckoo”

daughter. Seriously, I have a strong feeling about
this.”
Charlie just smiled and didn’t say anything.
Andrew brought over a fruit platter and some desserts. Everyone began playing with Kya, who was sitting on
Charlie’s lap. At first, she was a bit shy and scared, but gradually, she became more comfortable and started
laughing heartily.
Charlie held Kya in his arms, and for the first time in days, he felt at peace.
Half an hour later, Estelle and Jonathan arrived
Everyone stood up to give Jonathan a seat. Charlie gave him a small smile, “Thanks!”
Jonathan chuckled, “Don’t mention it. It’s the least I could do.”
Knowing that the two of them had something to discuss, Carson called Andrew and the others to play cards. Soon,
only Jonathan and Charlie, who was holding

Charlie handed Kya a lychee and slowly began to peel it, “I think I know why Emily suddenly broke up with me”
