CEO's Tears Over Pregnancy Test Discovery novel Chapter 1466

Ben couldn’t help but be amused by the little boy’s suspicion. An idea struck him, and he pulled up an old photo on his phone, showing it to Charlie. “Look, isn’t this your mom in the picture?”

Charlie glanced at the screen and nodded.

“Now you believe me, right? I really know your mom.”

Charlie hesitated. “But… photos can be edited too. How do I know this one’s real?”

Ben was taken aback. “You’re pretty young to know about things like that.”

He hadn’t considered just how much Jamie, a single woman raising a child, might have gone through. People had likely tried to deceive her and Charlie countless times. It was no surprise the boy was so wary.

“I even have a video here,” Ben offered, scrolling through his album. “See for yourself. If it were fake, you’d notice.”

Charlie finally started to relax. Since this man really did know his mother, he figured he didn’t need to be so guarded.

Answering Ben’s earlier question, Charlie said, “I don’t have a dad.”

“Not at all?”

“Nope. He didn’t want us. Since I was born, it’s only been me and Mom. So, I don’t want him either. As long as I have Mom, that’s enough.” Charlie had once wondered what it would be like to have a dad. But every time he brought it up, he would see his mom’s tears. Eventually, he stopped asking.
