The CEO’s Ex-Wife Is A Famous Doctor By LiLhyz Chapter 184: Charles’ Wishes

The Hendersons had a pleasant evening, with Keith’s parents getting to know Karise. They asked about her work, her family, and her friends. They also inquired about how she managed her time. They were surprised how she only hired one nanny when Keith could get her two at the very least.

“I like my time with Kamila,” Karise replied. She turned to the stroller where her baby was sleeping and added, “It makes me feel complete knowing I attended to her needs, even if it’s just a few hours a day. So on one weekend, just like now, I give the nanny her time off.”

“And I like how Kamila can recognize me.” Karise’s eyes gleamed as she described, “When she smiles at Keith and me, it’s like she knows we are her parents!”

“And she’d blabber endlessly when we are around her, and Keith – oh, you should see Keith trying to make her laugh,” Karise fished for her phone, finding those videos and showing them to Charles and Helen.

Helen and Charles smiled, seeing another side of Keith. In that video, Keith was making faces and weird sounds while Kamila laughed genuinely at her father.

It made Helen teary-eyed again. She said, “Wow, I can’t believe this is my son.” Glancing at Keith, she declared, “I’m proud of you, Keith, and what you have become – a good father.”

Just then, Kamila woke up. Karise and Keith both got up, working together. Keith went to the living room to make milk while Karise carried the baby, soothing her.

When Keith returned, he already had a milk bottle, and Karise smiled at him, saying, “Thanks, Babe.” 1

Keith winked at Karise, replying, “Welcome, Babe.” i

Both Helen and Charles looked at each other with approving nods. It wasn’t just that. They saw how Keith had offered to help Karise clean off Kamila after she had a dirty diaper. He did things that their previously indulged son had never done before.
