The Charming Ex-Wife

Chapter 656 Together We Stand

In the tumultuous scene, a mother, cradling her child in her arms, implored, “Dr. Thorne is the one who saved your life! Could you please just behave for a bit?”

The child, tears streaming down his face, was desperately seeking comfort from his accompanying grandmother.
