Charlie's eyes flickered with a mixture of apprehension and resignation as he tried to summon up the expected joy for the occasion.Despite his best efforts, a sense of impending doom lingered in his mind as he forced a smile in Alice and Leo's direction. "Today's the day!" he exclaimed, his voice filled with a strange mix of excitement and dread. He glanced at Alice, whose eyes sparkled with happiness, her hand gently clasped in Leo's. The weight of Charlie's decision bore heavily on his shoulders, and he couldn't shake the feeling of regret gnawing at him from within."I wish I could stop this, but it has to happen anyway," he muttered under his breath, his words barely a whisper in the bustling atm
The Unexpected Heir What's going on
Michael chuckled warmly, the corners of his eyes crinkling with a touch of genuine amusement. "Yeah, I guess we're both a little impatient.

Mr. and Mrs. Thompson shared a smile at the exchange, their expressions reflecting a mix of joy and anticipation for the couple's upcoming union.Mr. Thompson's eyes welled up with tears of joy and nostalgia as he fondly recalled the moment from over 30 years ago. It was a simple request, asking his daughter to hold his hand as they walked down the aisle together. The memory of that tender moment filled his heart with overwhelming happiness as he realized how quickly time had passed.

The Unexpected Heir Disbelief
"How long have you been thinking about this?" Mrs. Thompson asked, her voice laced with a hint of skepticism.Charlie chuckled softly. "I just thought about it a few days ago, and we've decided on it.

"Yes, we talked about it, and he said he was going to talk to you about it," she lied, trying to support Charlie.Miss Victoria's eyes lit up with excitement. "That will be super interesting!" she exclaimed.But Mr. and Mrs. Thompson shot Charlie a glare, their faces disapproving. "Charlie, what are you saying, this is too prompt?"

The soft glow of the lamp in the corner cast a warm light on the scene, illuminating the faint smile on Alice's face as she watched him."Did you mean what you said, are we really getting married, or you're just..." Alice asked, her voice trailing off as Charlie cut her off, his eyes locked on hers with a determined glint."I am for real, we are getting married the second time,"
The Unexpected Heir Seeking forgiveness
Alice's face turned red with anger, her eyes blazing with fury. "You shouldn't have allowed them, I don't want to see them!" she shouted, her voice echoing through the room. Charlie approached her calmly, his hands held out in a soothing gesture."Remember what the doctor said about you stressing yourself, Alice. You don't want anything to happen to our baby, right?" he asked, his voice gentle but firm. "So just calm down, take a deep breath, and hear them out. It can't hurt to listen, and who knows, maybe they have something important to say."Alice's expression didn't change, her anger and frustration still simmering just below the surface. But Charlie's words seemed to penetrate her defenses, and she took a deep breath, her shoulders relaxing slightly."Fine," she said, her voice still firm but slightly softer. "But if they start bothering me, I'm out of here."Charlie nodded, his eyes locked onto hers, his face filled with understanding and support. "I'll be right here beside you,
The Unexpected Heir Forgiveness
Mr. Henry finally decided to speak, his voice a gentle interruption, a soothing balm to the raw emotions in the room. He chuckled softly, a warm, comforting sound, to get Alice's attention. "Alice, I know this is deep, and difficult. But we can't literally blame anyone. It hurts so deeply, it has to turn out like this. Your mother has raised Kate with so much love and care, and she's not here today to realize we've been raising someone else's child. So, we are all hurt."His words were a gentle reminder, a soft whisper of reason, a calming presence in the storm of emotions. He spoke with a deep understanding, an empathy that came from experiencing the same pain and hurt. His eyes were filled with compassion. "We are all in this together, Alice. We are all hurt, but we can heal together.”"Why are you saying this to me?" Alice's voice cracked with emotion, her words laced with hurt and betrayal. "You left me in the hospital after finding out that I am your child two weeks ago. You left

"I made up my mind even before I knew about you," he said, his voice filled with a sense of conviction, his words spoken with a quiet confidence.Alice's gaze narrowed slightly, her mind racing with questions. "But why?" she asked, her voice barely above a whisper, her eyes searching her father's face for answers.Mr. Henry's expression turned wistful, his eyes clouding over with a hint of sadness. "I thought it was the right thing to do," he said, his voice filled with a deep longing. "We can all start fresh and be happy together. My wife passed away a long time ago, and I've been alone for almost ten years now." His voice cracked slightly, his eyes well
