Beyond the Divorce

When I heard what Donovan said, I silently breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Arton, saying, "That depends on Mr. Arton."

Arton no longer looked at me with the hostility he had when he first came home.

He appeared to be bewildered, helpless, and even pleading...

A man in his thirties who had been accustomed to recklessness now looked like a child who had made a mistake. He glanced at his father helplessly.

I looked at Georgina and asked, "What about you, Mrs. Georgina? Are you satisfied with the reasons I've given?"

Her face paled. She turned to her son, saying, "Since he is really your child, let's bring him back as soon as possible."

I looked at Arton again. Despite his imposing appearance, he said meekly, "Let's do what my mom said."

Since they had all agreed to take Charlie back, I spoke again, "But there is one condition from the lady taking care of the little boy now..."

Donovan immediately said, "Of course. Feel free to tell us whatever conditions they have. My family will agree to them."
