Wooing My Ex-Wife

Chapter 680

Unable to recall where he had heard those words before, he replied in an unconcerned tone, “All right. I’ll keep that in mind.”

With a dignified stride in his elegant black shoes, Charles departed without looking back.

Whitney’s gaze lingered on his retreating figure, her eyes filling with a hint of melancholy and a touch of disappointment.

Subsequently, Charles personally sought out the director of the oceanarium to deliver a significant announcement. “Appoint the dolphin caretaker, Whitney Mellor, as the new manager. In recognition of her exceptional contributions, she shall receive a year-end bonus, to be disbursed together with this month’s salary.”

The director of the oceanarium was astounded. “Certainly, Mr. Newton. It is truly an honor for her to receive a personal appointment from you.”

Charles did not say anything further and merely departed the oceanarium with Zendaya in his arms.

It had been days since the little girl saw her older brother.

Thus, Charles drove to the laboratory, where Gwendolyn and Cedrick were tending to Benedict as he received intravenous treatment.

Charles retrieved his tablet, opened the video interface, and handed it to Gwendolyn. “This is a video I took of Zendy while she was playing with the dolphins. Even though Benny couldn’t go, I thought he would be happy to see his oceanarium.”

She accepted the tablet and tapped the play button before gently placing the device in Benedict’s arms.

“My sweet Benny, this is a video of Zendy playing with the dolphins. Do you like it? Once you’re feeling better, I will take you to see the dolphins in person, all right?”

Benedict was not yet proficient in speaking, and his learning abilities appeared to develop at a slower pace compared to his sister. Nonetheless, as he gazed at the video capturing his sister’s delightful interaction with the dolphins, he instinctively extended his delicate hand toward the screen, a gesture of longing to experience the sensation of touching the dolphins.

The contagious joy radiating from his sister’s beaming smile reached deep within him, eliciting a faint yet heartfelt smile that graced his fragile countenance.

As Gwendolyn’s eyes brimmed with tears, a deep sense of indebtedness toward Benedict overwhelmed her.

Cedrick, sensing her self-blame, enfolded her in his embrace, his touch a soothing balm upon her troubled heart. “Our dear Benedict is only just over a year old, yet he already has an entire national-scale oceanarium to call his own. He is a truly blessed and fortunate child,” he reassured her.
