Spencer asked Ben, “Why have things turned out this way overnight? Have you checked with Mrs.
Rawlston? Has she consumed anything odd?”
After much hesitations, Ben answered in a hushed voice, “They were at Ms. Lindberg’s place three days
ago and just back last night. She started vomiting out of the blue as soon as we reached home.”
“If that’s the case, had she consumed anything she shouldn’t when she was away?” Staring at Zachary
in the eyes, Spencer asked, “Why don’t you try figuring out the things she has eaten?”
When Zachary heard Spencer, his eyes widened in disbelief again. He muttered to himself, “Could it
be…”
Those affiliated with Danrique are aware he’s an expert when it comes to manipulating others with
different types of drugs! On top of that, he’s capable of doing it without alarming others!
Spencer leaned over and asked with a gentle grin, “Jamie, why don’t you tell me the things you have
eaten over the past two days?”
Jamie tried his best to recall the things he had gone through and said, “Apart from a few glasses of
water, we didn’t have anything else since we fell ill the moment we reached Mommy’s place a few nights
ago. She summoned the doctor to check on us once she figured out something was wrong. We were
rushed to the hospital due to an ongoing high fever. When we were at the hospital, we only had a serving
of oatmeal with vegetable broth. Once our condition improved, we went home.”
After pausing for a few seconds to gather his thoughts, he added, “Mommy brought us out for a meal
because she knew we were afraid of Uncle Dan. The owner of Seacrest Restaurant made us a lot of
dishes, but we stopped ourselves from eating the food since we preferred the ones Mommy made us.
Ellie and I got ourselves a slice of cake to eat because it took Mommy quite some time to get everything
ready from scratch. However, I’m perfectly fine.”
Zachary instructed, “Send someone to Seacrest Restaurant to figure out if anything has gone wrong!”
“Yes!” Bruce departed with a team and made their way to Seacrest Restaurant without further ado.
Spencer tapped on Zachary’s shoulder and reminded, “Mr. Zachary, you need to remain level-headed
during emergencies. I’m afraid your foes are aware that your children are your soft spots. You need to
stay calm to stop others from getting the better of you.”
Gritting his teeth, Zachary gasped out his announcement, “If anyone tries to do something silly to my
children, I’ll take them out at all costs!”
“You need to calm down and refrain from trying anything rash for the time being since we’re merely
speculating.”
“Daddy, Mr. Spencer, what are you guys talking about?”
Jamie had a hard time comprehending the content of the duo’s conversation. Nonetheless, he was
startled by his father’s scrunched-up face.
It was then Zachary recalled something and remarked, “Speaking of which, Robbie is still at Lindberg
residence!”
He hesitated no more and reached for his phone to get in touch with Charlotte. Unfortunately, he couldn’t
reach her.
Thus, he leaned over and instructed his son, “Jamie, can you get in touch with Robbie?”
“Sure!” Jamie tried getting in touch with Robbie using his smartwatch, but his effort was to no avail since
Robbie seemed to have switched it off.
“Keep an eye on Jamie and Ellie when I’m away!” Zachary rushed out of the ward shortly after he
finished his sentence.
“Mr. Zachary!” Seeing he couldn’t stop the infuriated man, Spencer instructed Ben, “Hurry up and go
after him!”
“Yes!”
“Daddy—” Jamie wrapped his arms around Spencer’s leg and asked while weeping, “M-Mr. Spencer,
what’s wrong with Daddy?”
Spencer assured the little boy it was nothing serious, “Your father is currently on his way to pick Robbie
up. He’s just worried Robbie will go through something similar if he accidentally consumes something he
needs to stay away from.”
Jamie couldn’t fathom the things Spencer had brought up, but he thought it wasn’t a bad idea to have
Robbie around since his brother might be able to come up with something brilliant to resolve the
challenges awaiting them.
I can’t even keep Ellie safe or tell Daddy to calm down without Robbie! What am I supposed to do now?
