Chapter 186 Do You Agree?
Mabel was momentarily caught off guard. “Oh, just the usual.”
Julius frowned, a serious expression settling on his face as he scrutinized her. “What exactly do you mean?”
Julius didn’t have much experience with Charlotte.
At just five years old, most of his twas spent at the Harrison Villa.
Since he could remember, his grandparents were the people he was most familiar with.
Julius had only seen Charlotte a handful of times, and every encounter left him with a negative impression.
Jennifer frequently warned him to keep his distance from Charlotte, labeling her a useless housewife who
couldn't help with his studies or teach him the piano and who bothered him with toys and storybooks.
And honestly, she was right.
Every tJulius returned home, Charlotte would eagerly show him the dollhouse she prepared and insist on
reading him a bedtstory.
She was indeed a distraction.

Julius thought this was how all kids interacted with their
parents.

But after meeting Mabel and observing her bond with Charlotte, he found it hard to accept at first. He wanted to
strive for that
connection.
Eventually, Julius began to question everything. Were his previous ideas right? Was Jennifer's perspective really
right?
Charlotte was clearly capable. She could prepare toys and read stories and even excel in photography,
showcasing master-level skills.
He began to doubt his earlier beliefs while simultaneously wanting to learn how other kids connected with their
mothers.
Julius’ seriousness caught Mabel’s attention as she blinked. “I don’t know. It’s probably similar to how I interact
with Ms.
Lottie.”

Julius frowned again. Similar? He still didn’t quite grasp it.
Just then, Mabel’s smartwatch beeped, and she exclaimed, “My mom's calling!”
She was about to dash away to answer but paused, recalling Julius’ words. “If you want to know how | get along
with my mom, you can listen over there, but keep quiet!”
Julius nodded earnestly. “Okay.”
Mabel called out sweetly, “Mom!”

“Sweetie, I'm coming back tomorrow. Are you excited?” Evie’s gentle voice cthrough the speaker.
“Yes, | miss you so much! Did you geta gift?” Mabel asked eagerly.
Evie snorted softly, “Then kiss me, and I'll tell you.”
Mabel promptly kissed the phone. “Mom, is it my favorite bunny doll?”
“Of course,” Evie replied. “But have you been good? Have you disturbed Charlotte's work?”
“I've been very good! Ms. Lottie even askedto be her goddaughter!” Mabel beamed with pride. “Mom, do
you agree?”
Evie smiled, “Of course! That way, you'll have two mothers who love you.”
Mabel glanced over at Julius, whose expression had darkened.
He looked so pitiful; she had two loving mothers while he had
none.
“But Charlotte has a child. If you want to be her goddaughter, you'll need her child’s approval, okay?” Evie said,
sounding
serious.
Mabel appeared confused. “Why?”
Evie smiled, “I'll explain when | get back, okay?”
“Alright” Mabel agreed.

After chatting for a while longer, Evie hung up.
Chapter 187 Can | Be Your Sister?
Julius’ face was tense, his lips pressed into a firm line, and his eyebrows knitted together. He thought briefly, his
expression serious, then shook his head. “No.”
Mabel’s eyes widened slightly. “Why not? Don’t you want a sister? Wouldn't it be great forto be your sister? |
could help you!”
She genuinely liked Charlotte and wanted to be her goddaughter.
It would be such an honor to tell others that she had two mothers who loved her.
But Julius’ refusal left her feeling dejected.
Julius replied firmly, “If | wanted a sister, my mom could have another baby, but you can’t be my sister.”
He noticed how much Charlotte adored Mabel, and once Mabel becCharlotte's goddaughter, she would
inevitably drift further away from him. He didn’t want that.
Mabel snorted, “Fine! Then don’t expect my help!”
With that, she jumped off the couch and dashed upstairs.
Julius lowered his gaze, a stubborn look on his face. He simply wouldn't agree. His mother was his alone.

By the tCharlotte finished her work, it was already late at night.
After taking a bath, she checked in on Mabel and Julius, relieved to find them both asleep.
As she returned to her room, her phone rang. When she saw it was Barrett calling, she answered, “Hello?”
“Charlotte, you need to cquick! Arthur's gone crazy and can’t stop drinking!” Barrett said, his voice laced
with urgency.
Charlotte maintained her calm, replying, “If he wants to drink, let him. That's his choice. You don’t need to tell
me.”
Barrett was stunned. “But Arthur's been calling for you! He wants to see you. You need to cget him.”
He lowered his voice a bit. “Arthur is not well. If you don’t take him away, he will spoil the fun.”
Charlotte scoffed. It turned out Arthur was ruining their night

out,
“You can just drop him off at a hotel nearby,” she said flatly.
Barrett said, “Charlotte, | have a say in Ms. Aroma'’s affairs.
You...”
“Fine. I'll be there.” Charlotte's tone turned icy as she hung up.
Chapter 187 Can | Be Your Sister?
Barrett knew she was Ms. Aroma.
Since he was a friend of Arthur's, he might inadvertently spill something.
Charlotte didn’t want to take that risk. The divorce wasn’t finalized yet, and she wanted to avoid any additional
complications.
At the Night Club, the room buzzed with energy-swere playing cards, others were engrossed in games, and
the atmosphere was electric.
Yet this liveliness did nothing to lift the spirits of the man
slouched on the sofa.

Arthur held a wine glass, several buttons on his black shirt undone, exuding a reckless charm despite the
frostiness in his strikingly handsfeatures.
“Charlotte, nice try...” he muttered, downing his drink in one gulp.
Barrett, having just entered the room after hanging up the phone, frowned upon hearing Arthur's words. He
could sense Arthur's anger when he called Charlotte’s nand wondered if it was just his imagination.
As Arthur reached for another drink, Barrett rushed over to intervene. “Arthur, stop! | called Charlotte, and she'll
be here
soon.”
Arthur shot him a cold look. “Who told you to call her?”

Mabel turned to Julius, who still looked tense, and asked, “Do
you agree?”
