Charlotte Lane sat on the sofa looking at Kevin Clark.
Upon hearing her, Kevin's pupils dilated. Although he had rehearsed this scenario countless times in his mind, his brain still blanked for a moment, and his face turned slightly pale.
But he forced himself to calm down immediately.
He quickly took out his cell phone and unlocked it with trembling fingers. He had to try twice before succeeding, and then he called Thomas Firway.
"Drive the car to North Court, hurry!"
Upon hanging up, Kevin rushed to the cloakroom and grabbed two clothes, wrapping Charlotte in one and carefully lifting her up: "Does it hurt a lot?"
"It's okay," Charlotte replied with one arm around his neck, looking at his bloodless lips and stiff body. She couldn't tell if she was giving birth or if he was.
Why was his reaction even bigger than hers?
Thomas Firway's car arrived quickly.
Kevin put Charlotte in the car and buckled her seatbelt. Alfie Ward quickly got in as well.
