When Zachary wasn’t around, Charlotte would be unfazed by whatever obstacles she faced, just like a strong,
brave, and independent woman.
She would never waver against whatever came her way.
But in front of Zachary, she would suddenly turn into a submissive woman, nuzzling herself coquettishly in his arms.
Evidently, that was what love would do to a person.
“I appreciate what you have done,” Zachary whispered softly to her. “From now on, I’ll take responsibility for
everything. All you need to do is to focus on your recovery and eat well. After that, you should bear a few more kids
for me.”
“Pfft!” Charlotte burst into laughter. “More kids? We already have six of them at home. At the rate we’re going,
we’ll end up with a soccer team.”
“Hahaha, wouldn’t that be great?”
“I’m not going to do it. You do it if you want them so much.”

“I’m open to that idea. I’ll do some research and see if there’s any new technology that’ll allow a man to give
birth.”
“Hehe, in that case, let’s have a few more.”
“Don’t forget that you have to work hard and get me pregnant first.”
“Pfft! You…”
While both of them whispered sweet nothings to each other, Lupine and Ben exchanged smiling glances outside.
They were both touched and relieved over what they heard.
The day they had been looking forward to for such a long time was finally here.
“Let me take over. Both of you should get some rest,” Marino suggested to Lupine.
“Appreciate it,” Lupine thanked him and pushed Ben back to his ward. “I suppose this is the happy ending everyone
has been waiting for?”
“There’s still a lot of loose ends to tie up.” Furrowing his brows, Ben analyzed, “Mr. Nacht is still physically weak and
needs some time to recuperate. Also, Mr. Lindberg might not allow Francesco to stay behind.”
“Mr. Lindberg has never been so anxious about anything before. To have come to H City at such a crucial time to

see Francesco, she must really be very important to him. Also, I heard that he has gotten himself hurt, that’s the
most important part.”
Pausing for a moment, Lupine frowned. “Come to think of it. This truly is a problem.”
“Yes. Everything else can be dealt with other than this.”
Ben let out a sigh.
“Perhaps, Ms. Lindberg can solve it?” Lupine held out some hope. “Having rushed to save her today, Mr. Lindberg
obviously still cares a lot about her.”
“Given how serious the matter is, I’m afraid the bond of the two siblings might not be enough.” Ben wasn’t as
optimistic. “Besides, he needs Francesco to treat his injuries. Hence, Ms. Lindberg is not in the position to refuse.”
“That’s true.” Lupine’s expression turned grim. “In that case, what are we going to do?”
“Considering that Mr. Nacht has recovered a lot, it will now depend on whether Hayley and Sam can carry out
Francesco’s treatment. Just like how it was with Dr. Felch, they would need to treat with acupuncture and a

concoction of medicine every day.”
“That might work too.”
“Nevertheless, I don’t think it’s going to be that easy,” Ben commented grimly. “Marino told me earlier that
Francesco went to see Mr. Nacht and requested him to bring the children back.”
“Oh? How is that possible?” Lupine couldn’t believe it. “The children belong to Mr. Lindberg. How can Mr. Nacht take
them from him? Setting aside the question of whether it’s possible, this doesn’t appear to even make sense.”
“Yes, that’s why it’s such a pickle.”
While both of them were discussing softly, Zachary was hugging Charlotte to sleep inside the ward.
“Sleep for a while longer. You must be tired.”
“Has Robbie come home?” She was still concerned about her son.
“You will see him very soon.” Zachary didn’t want her to worry.
“Is Danrique keeping Robbie by his side?” Charlotte quickly saw through the situation. “Is he planning to exchange
Robbie for Francesco?”
“Erm…”
“Has Danrique also taken the girls along with him?” Charlotte continued speculating. “He must have used the
treatment to threaten you into getting the children for him. Am I right?”q
