Chapter 113 Caught Off Guard
Early the next morning, Joe came again.
He held an exquisite stuffed toy and two handheld gaming devices in his hands as he entered the
ward.
Seeing him, Anna reacted like a warrior, standing before Charlotte, and said, “Why are you here again,
you big villain?”
Hearing her address, Joe frowned, “Is this how you teach your children? To call me a villain?”
Charlotte didn’t expect Anna to be so disdainful of Joe, and Joe’s attitude amused her. “I’ve never
taught the children this way. It’s their own thoughts.”
Joe neither confirmed nor denied it. He took two paper bags from Jack and handed them over, saying,
“These are gifts for you.”
Anna didn’t even spare a glance and turned her head away, saying, “I don’t want your gift.”

“That’s enough,” Charlotte shot Joe an angry look. “My children don’t need your evaluation. Mr. Smith,
please leave.”
“Yeah! We don’t want to talk to you!” Anna chimed in loudly, only to be stopped by Charlotte. “Anna!
You must be polite.”
Anna’s eyes twinkled as she ran up to Joe, putting on a big, fake smile. “Goodbye, Mr. Smith! Your
work must be busy, so focus on it. Don’t come here again next time.”
Joe watched her silently for a moment, then left the room with a dark expression.
Charlotte furrowed her brows as she watched him leave. How could Joe be the kind of person to give
up so easily?
“Stay in the room with your brother, and don’t wander around. Mommy will be back in a bit,” Charlotte
decided to follow Joe outside after a brief thought. She needed to watch him leave. with her own eyes.
As if aware of someone following him, Joe took a big circle around the hospital before finally leaving.
Seeing this, Charlotte couldn’t help but furrow her brows. Just as she watched Joe get into the car, Joe
suddenly glanced in her direction and gave her a faint smile.
Charlotte’s heart skipped a beat, suddenly on high alert.
She swiftly turned and sprinted toward the direction of the ward, breathless as she pushed open the
door.
At that moment, Ben was sitting on the bed, telling a story to
Anna. Startled by Charlotte’s disheveled appearance, Ben exclaimed, “Mom, what happened to you?”
Seeing that both of them were safe and sound, Charlotte let out a long sigh of relief. “I’m fine. I was just
worried that you two might be in danger in this ward.””
Ben and Anna exchanged glances and burst into laughter.
“We’re safe here! The nurse even helped me with my hair just
now!”
Charlotte was about to nod, but she suddenly paused.

With a serious expression, she looked at Ben and Anna and
asked, “Did a nurse come by just now?”
Anna nodded and proudly showed off her braided hair to
Charlotte. “Mom, look! The nurse helped me with this braid!”
Charlotte pursed her lips and managed a smile after a
moment. “Your hair looks really nice!”
She distinctly remembered that the head nurse had mentioned earlier today that the rounds by the
nurses would
be greatly reduced in frequency and number due to a staff meeting at the hospital. They were told to
communicate any special needs in advance.
Suppressing her growing sense of unease, Charlotte asked casually, “Did the nurse do any other
examinations for you?”
