Chapter 566 Daddy and Mommy Are Kissing! At that moment, Ben looked over, and Anna immediately exclaimed, “I think Ben is cute!” After saying that, she made a few eye gestures toward Joe. Everyone burst into laughter. Joe put Anna down and knelt in front of the two children, looking at them seriously and earnestly, “In the future, let Daddy and Mommy take care of you together.” Ben immediately turned his head to look at Charlotte, and when he saw that she didn’t show any displeasure, he breathed a slight sigh of relief. Anna asked in confusion, “But haven’t Daddy and Mommy been taking care of us together all the time?” “Indeed, together,” Charlotte also gently crouched down, “we might live together in the future.” “That would be great!” Anna cheered, “My classmates say that daddies and mommies live together. I’ve never seen it before.” Charlotte smiled helplessly. Children’s focus was always so peculiar. Ben walked up to Joe, his black and white eyes staring at Joe earnestly, “Can you protect Mommy and make her not sad?” Joe was taken aback. He hadn’t expected Ben to ask him such a serious question. His heart felt a pang of tenderness, finally understanding why Charlotte had been so resolute about sending Ben to the gifted class back then. He knelt in front of Ben, solemnly holding his hand, “I promise you.” Ben pursed his lips and then grasped his hand in return. Enter title… Early the next morning, Charlotte heard bustling noises downstairs. When she looked out, she saw Joe with Ben and
Anna in the garden, engrossed in something. “What are you guys doing?” Charlotte asked with a smile. Excitedly, Anna waved her hand at her, “Mommy, Daddy is helping us plant trees!” “Planting trees?” Charlotte grew even more curious and decided to walk down wearing her coat. Joe held a shovel, his shirt sleeves rolled up to his elbows, revealing the smooth muscle lines of his forearms. In front of him were two large pits, and standing beside him were Ben and Anna, each holding a small shovel and their faces smeared with dirt. Charlotte gently wiped the dirt off the faces of the two children and asked softly, “What kind of trees are you planting?” Anna raised her hand and jumped forward, “I know! Daddy said these are two cherry trees. They’ll grow up with us, and then we can eat delicious cherries!” Charlotte was quite surprised that Joe had brought the two children to plant trees, but seeing their joyful expressions made her smile even more. Joe walked over to stand beside Charlotte, giving her a gentle kiss on the lips. “Daddy and Mommy are kissing!” Seeing this scene, Anna quickly covered her eyes and also covered those of Ben. Charlotte, who had initially not felt embarrassed, suddenly turned bashful. She shot Joe a somewhat annoyed glance and hastily uttered, “I’m going upstairs,” before making a swift escape. Watching her departing figure, Joe smiled and told the two children, “Daddy kissed Mommy because Daddy loves Mommy. You two should wait until you grow up and meet someone you love before you can do this!” Ben and Anna looked at him with bewilderment. He gently ruffled their hair and laughed, his eyes filled with warmth.
