“You…”
“It’s still early in the morning, and you’re already angry.” Zachary tugged Charlotte to sit back down. “I’ll
send you off after breakfast.”
“Let go of me!”
Charlotte wanted to get free from his grasp but froze when she met his gaze. It seemed he was hinting
something at her.
“Sure. It’s just a meal.” Charlotte sneered, “They won’t eat me anyways.”
Taylor coughed dryly at her sneer.
Cynthia merely sat there obediently with her head lowered. Tears were falling as though she had
suffered greatly.
“Since you’re leaving, I think we should talk.”
Henry suppressed his anger and tried his best to seem humble.
“What are you trying to say?” Charlotte gazed at him coldly.
Henry sighed deeply. “I still feel the guilt regarding Mrs. Berry’s incident two years ago.”
Charlotte was surprised at his repentance. It was the first time he admitted to his mistake. Has he
honestly regretted his actions?
“These two years have been hell to me. The kids were estranged from me, especially Robbie. He’s been
blaming me for sending you away ever since. Zachary was also cold and kept his distance from me.
“It wasn’t that I didn’t reflect on my actions. I have frequently wondered I wouldn’t have insisted on
sending you away if I could make that choice again. But there is no turning back in life.
“Unfortunately, mistakes have been made. And there’s no way to rectify it even if I was the worst kind of
criminal.
“I don’t know how you feel about your new identity. But you will realize life doesn’t leave you with much of
a choice as you age.
“Especially when you’re in a high position, you have to take into consideration the fate of your family and
grandchildren’s future in your every thought and action. You can’t just think about yourself.”
“What are you trying to say?” Charlotte wanted a straightforward answer.
“I hope you can be more considerate of your children.”
Henry finally spoke his mind.
“Are you sure it is better for the kids when you take them to the Lindberg residence? “Even though you’re
a Lindberg and the second major shareholder of the Lindberg Corporation, you rely on Danrique for
everything you have.
“What will happen if you defy him one day? And he got mad, then took everything away from you. I know
you’re fine on your own, but what about the kids? “Where would they go? “Do they have to move from
city to city with you?”
Undeniably, his words struck a nerve in Charlotte.
She had considered all these problems hence her worries.
I, myself, don’t feel any sense of belonging to the Lindberg family. So I hadn’t wanted to take the kids
there if it wasn’t for the continuous dangerous occurrences they faced in the Nacht residence.
Henry took a sip and continued, “If you have any grudges, I’ll try my best to make it up to you. I can even
apologize to you with my humblest and deepest sincerity. Anything is fine.
“But I hope you can refrain from acting recklessly and be more considerate of the kids’ future. Robbie will
be the successor to the Nacht family, while Jamie and Ellie are the descendants of the Nacht family. This
place is their home.
“If they’re in the Lindberg residence, they would be subjected to others’ ministration. It won’t be their
home.”
“You truly are an excellent negotiator. Every word you said is on point.” Charlotte jeered, “I had
considered everything you mentioned. But the kids didn’t seem to inherit anything from the Nacht family.
And if they keep falling sick and injured…”
“Do you want me to expose the truth?”
Rage gripped Henry at her words. “How did Ellie end up like that? Isn’t it because of the poison by
Danrique? And Zachary was also bitten by Danrique’s poisonous snake-”
“Who told you Danrique poisoned Ellie?” Charlotte yelled angrily.
