Although their return to the Lindberg residence would also be fraught with dangers, Charlotte was
determined to bring the kids with her.
She had already made up her mind. If they could no longer stay in the Lindberg residence, she could
leave Erihal with the kids and start over a new life in a foreign place.
For these two years, Danrique had done a good job protecting her. Until now, she had not been involved
in the conflicts between the families and corporations.
Hence, she could leave easily in the future.
“You’re so stubborn…” Zachary was on the brink of fury. Just when he was about to continue persuading
her, his phone rang and he immediately picked up the call. “Hello?”
“Mr. Zachary, Mr. Nacht can’t hang in there anymore!” said Spencer anxiously. “Come back quickly!”
“What?” Although Zachary knew that Henry’s condition was quite severe, he did not expect this moment
to come so quickly. Panicking, he said, “I’ll come back right now!”
“Wait.” At that moment, Raina snatched the phone away. “Mr. Zachary, Henry wants to meet Ms.
Lindberg before he goes.”
“He wants to meet her?”
Zachary was surprised. Shouldn’t Henry want to see the kids instead?
“Mr. Zachary, bring Ms. Lindberg and the kids over now. There’s not much time left!” urged Spencer
worriedly.
“Yeah, Mr. Zachary. Come back now!” added Raina.
Zachary ended the call and pleaded with Charlotte anxiously, “Henry would like to see you. He’s already
on the brink of death! Please, I’m begging you to bring the kids to the hospital. Let’s talk about everything
else later, okay?”
“No.” Charlotte was very resolute. “Sign this contract and I’ll bring the kids to the hospital. Otherwise,
there’s nothing for us to talk about.”
“You…”
“Mommy…”
Just when both of them had reached a stalemate, Jamie’s voice sounded from outside. “Can we enter?”
When Charlotte heard his voice, she quickly collected herself. She shot a glance at Zachary before
opening the door. “Robbie, Jamie, Ellie, why are you here? Didn’t I ask you to wait for me in the study
room?”
Charlotte’s voice became gentle whenever she talked to the kids. A warm smile had also spread across
her cheeks.
“We were getting impatient from the wait…” Before Jamie could finish his sentence, he spotted Zachary
and immediately ran over. “Daddy!”
“Jamie!” Zachary bent down and carried him up.
“Daddy…” Hugging his neck, Jamie burst into tears. “Daddy, what happened to you? What did you do to
make Mommy angry? Apologize to her now! Otherwise, if she doesn’t want you, we can’t see you
anymore.”
When Zachary heard that, tears welled up in his eyes.
He hated himself for allowing things to lead to this. Why did I let my kids suffer with me? Despite being
able to dominate the corporate world, why am I incapable of protecting my own family?
“Daddy…” Robbie tugged Zachary’s pants and asked anxiously, “What happened? Tell me now! I’ll solve
it with you!”
“I just want our family to be together. I don’t want us to be separated!”
Unable to hold herself back, Ellie, who was sitting in her wheelchair and hugging her stuffed toy, burst
into tears.
Now that the children were all crying, Charlotte felt extremely flustered. She rushed forward to console
them.
“Mommy, please forgive Daddy. I’m begging you!” Jamie tugged Charlotte’s sleeve and pleaded with her
tearfully, “If Daddy bullies you again, I’ll beat him up for you.”
“Mommy, please…” begged Ellie as she pulled Charlotte’s hand.
“Don’t cry…” Zachary quickly squatted down and hugged Elle. Then, he told the three of them, “Robbie,
Jamie, Ellie, Great-grandpa is critically ill. Before he passes away, he’d like to see you and your mommy.
Let’s go to the hospital together, okay?”
