Chapter216

The lawyer sent the divorce agreement to the Hamilton Group as an urgent document, with Jaxson as the recipient.

When urgent and confidential documents addressed to Mr. Hamilton were received, the front desk staff would always pass them on to Cynthia.

Cynthia took the file in her hands and saw that the return address was Aldmarble Law Firm, which made her somewhat puzzled. However, thinking that urgent and confidential documents usually involve information that only the person themselves can see, she also succumbed to her curiosity and accepted it.

Cynthia brought the documents to the office, “Mr. Hamilton, here are your documents from Aldmarble Law Firm.”

Jaxson was fully focused on reading the contract. When he heard the words, he raised his eyelids and reached out to take the document Cynthia handed

him.

Just as I opened it, the phone suddenly rang.

He turned his gaze to the screen and glanced at the caller ID, which showed a call from the hospital.

He picked up the receiver, not knowing what the other party said, Jaxson squeezed out a “got it” from his throat.

After hanging up the call, Jaxson set the file aside, his palm covering his brow, with his thumb and forefinger apart, gently rubbing his temples. “You have someone keep an eye on Reynald,” he said.

Cynthia looked at him, didn’t ask much, nodded, “Got it.”

After Charlotte completed the discharge procedures, she walked downstairs with Maggie and saw Reynald already leaning against the car waiting.

He wore a denim shirt today, with a white T–shirt underneath, and his straight black pants tucked into his Martin boots. He has always been handsome, not showing signs of aging. With this outfit, some people would actually believe he is a college student.

Charlotte almost didn’t recognize him,“Reynald, how could you…”

“Reynald was the one I called,” Maggie smiled, “Mom agreed to invite him over for dinner, after all, he also helped your dad a lot during those three days.”

Reynald raised his eyebrows and opened the car door for the two of them.

The car was driving slowly on the road.

Sitting in the passenger seat, Maggie has always been discussing some personal matters with Reynald, such as “whether he is married, has a girlfriend, or has someone he likes.”

Reynald was overwhelmed, and in the end it was Charlotte who broke the ice,“Mom, if someone didn’t know better, they would think you were picking a daughter–in–law.”

Maggie turned to look at her,“Reynald is a boy, how can he be a daughter–in–law, I think…” Maggie glanced at them, with a smile in her eyes, and

continued, “More like a son–in–law.”

Charlotte was taken aback, and Reynald in the front row happened to look up at the rearview mirror, and the two almost met eyes at the same time.

–

She awkwardly looked away, touched her nose, …My mom just likes to joke around, Reynald, don’t mind her.”

Reynald’s lips curled slightly, “I didn’t mind.”

Maggie sighed at this point,“Reynald was such a good kid, but… it would have been better if we had met earlier.”

If my daughter had married Reynald instead of Jaxson, perhaps everything would have been different, right?

Upon arriving at the Sutton family’s house, the three of them got out of the car.

Maggie suddenly realized that she hadn’t bought groceries yet, so she turned around and said, “I need to go buy groceries. If I go to the market now, I can still pick out fresh ones.” After a few steps, she turned back and asked, “Reynald, what do you like to eat? Do you have any dietary restrictions?”
