Chapter 1419 Tell Me
"Are you sure it's fine when we're talking about the children of your arch-enemy?â
Instead of answering her query, Zachary looked at her in the eyes with a deadpan look.
âYou know what? They're really huge fans of yours, and they insist on having me sharing your tales
with them every day.â
He remarked in a serious tone, âJust bring them here and share the tales of the almighty man with
them whenever they want. It's not necessary for you to travel here and there and tire yourself out.â
"What do you mean? Are we officially patching things up?â Charlotte made of fun him because it
was such a rare opportunity.
âCan you stop asking the obvious?â
The series of questions she directed at him turned out to be her effort to trick him into begging her
to return to him.
She's such a nasty foe! I guess there's nothing I can do since I'm head over heels in love with her,
huh?
"Maybe I've accidentally gotten full of myself again, huh?â Charlotte carried on with an aggrieved
look. âI'll send Ben to keep you company when I'm away with the children at Northridge.â
"What? I donât need him to keep me company. You need to return once you're doneâ"
âI'm afraid that's impossible because I've promised to tuck them in and read them bedtime stories.â
Shortly after Charlotte put on her coat and her pair of shoes, she brought herself out of his room. âIf
you're bored, get them to play you a movie.â
âCharâ"
He couldnât even stop her because she had left the room.
Shortly after her departure, Ben walked into the room and announced, âMr. Nacht, Ms. Lindberg has
returned to Northridge. She says I'm supposed to keep youâ"
He couldnât even finish his speech because of Zachary's glare the moment he joined him in the
room.
Ben felt a shiver running down his spine. He asked, "W-What's wrong?â
"Get out of my sight!â Zachary yelled.
Ben was afraid to leave Zachary alone, but he knew he wasn't supposed to get on the manâs nerves
as well.
âI have to stay here to look after you since Raina is away to look for Dr. Wright. I'll keep my mouth
shut unless I have your consent to speak,â he assured the frustrated man on the bed.
Zachary let out a long sigh and tried moving around, but he ended up growling in pain due to the
racking sensation he felt.
Ben rushed over and urged, âYou need to stay still for another two days; two days is all it takes!â
Two days in bed was a luxury Zachary couldn't afford because he was in a race against time.
Meanwhile, Charlotte rushed into the kitchen to get the ingredients she needed for dinner ready
shortly after she returned to Northridge.
Although she was merely capable of preparing a few simple dishes, the little ones couldn't be
bothered at all.
Hanna had tagged along to prepare the childrenâs favorite hot cross bunnies and mac and cheese.
On top of that, she made Mrs. Berry's signature dishes for everyone as well.
In the evening, the little ones rushed out of the car the moment they reached home.
As soon as they caught a whiff of the pleasant scent coming from the kitchen, they knew Charlotte
was home to honor her promise with them.
Without a second thought, they rushed in the direction of the kitchen while yelling, âMommy!â
âAunt Charlotte!"
Apart from Robbie, who had taken a seat at the dining table with his laptop after washing his hands,
the rest of them surrounded Charlotte and greeted her to express their excitement.
"Hello, everyone!â
Charlotte greeted those around her and continued advancing in the direction of the dining table to
serve the dishes she made.
Once she had everything served, she got her hands washed and instructed, âJamie, Ellie, go get your
hands washed before the meal.â
"All right, Mommy!â
Charlotte wrapped her arms around the little girls and asked, âAlpha, Beta, Gamma, come over here
and let me see if all of you are doing fine.â
Alpha answered Charlotte's queries while counting her fingers, âWe had a great time savoring a lot
of delicacies, including sweets and desserts, when you weren't around.â
