Chapter 1598
When Shawn left, life for Emily returned to its once familiar rhythm, with one significant difference:
Charlie would no longer be around.
On a Friday afternoon, Charlie left a business luncheon at two o’clock. On his way back to the office,
he suddenly instructed, “Turn at the intersection up ahead. We need to make a stop at the Bright
Commercial Center”
Kent, his driver, quickly acknowledged his instruction. Upon arriving in Sunset Ridge Charlie had Kent
park under the shade of a tree outside the neighborhood, choosing to remain in the car and wait
Confused, Kent asked, “Mr. James, aren’t you getting out?”
“No,” replied Charlie, motionless.
About half an hour later, Ms. Simmons returned from grocery shopping with Kya.
From behind the car window, Charlie watched as Kya held onto Ms. Simmons’ fingers to cross the
street. The little girl was radiating with youthful energy, her round face beaming, lips rosy, and teeth as
white as pearls. The sun illuminated her fair skin as she playfully hopped across the road, hand in hand
with Ms. Simmons. Her light blue dress, complete with a butterfly how made of pink ribbon around her
waist, and two small braids bouncing as she walked, made her look extraordinarily cute.
Charlie watched Kya as she scanned her surroundings, her eyes landing on the direction of his parked
car. She seemed to hesitate, as if she wanted to stop, but was led away by Ms. Simmons through the
gates of the neighborhood.
Slowly, their figures grew distant until they were out of sight.
In a low voice, Kent suggested, “Mr. James, if you miss Kya, why don’t you step out of the car and see
her?”
Charlie, his eyes deep and thoughtful, shook his head slowly as he watched the direction in which Kya
had disappeared. “No, let’s go back to the office.”
That same afternoon, while on set watching Yulia act, Estelle received a call from Jonathan. His voice
was soft as he asked, “What time do you finish work?” Moving to a quieter area, Estelle replied, “We’re
wrapping up after one more scene. We should be done earlier today.”
“Carson invited us for dinner tonight. You should invite Emily and bring Kya along, Jonathan gently
suggested.
Raising an eyebrow, Estelle questioned, “Are you trying to get Emily and Charlie together?”
“Yes. While we can’t make decisions for Emily, Charlie deserves to see Kya.”
“Alright!” Estelle agreed, nodding her head. “It’s good timing Emily’s father found a job and has moved
out. There might still be a chance for Emily and Charlie.” After a pause, she added, “Tll also invite
Magdalen. She’s been missing Kya too. We were planning to meet this weekend.”
“TI pick you up then!” Jonathan offered.
“Sounds good!”
After hanging up, Estelle returned to the set, a smile tugging at the corners of her lips. Seeing her
cheerful expression, Blythe asked, “Why so happy? Was that your. boyfriend on the phone?”
Estelle merely laughed, “What’s up?” novelbin
Blythe handed her a lollipop, “I got this for you when I went to buy a drink.”
“Thanks!” Estelle unwrapped the candy and placed it in her mouth. The nich taste of orange filled her
palate, unknowingly improving her mood.
An hour later, the film crew wrapped up for the day, and Jonathan arrived to pick her up. After helping
her fasten her seatbelt, Jonathan leaned in for a light kiss on the corner of her lips
Breaking away from the kiss after a moment, Jonathan admired Estelle’s beauty. “Taste of orange?”
The setting sun illuminated Estelle from behind, highlighting her soft and radiant features. She replied,
her voice soft and gentle, “Is it sweet?”
“Sweet” confirmed Jonathan, a smile playing on his lips. “Very sweet”
With a spark in her eyes and a smile on her lips, Estelle turned her gaze towards the beautiful sunset
