Chapter 1000

Zachary said firmly, “No, it isn’t. Charlotte respects the feelings of her kids, and I’m sure they wouldn’t want to leave you either. Besides, you’ve already written your will, so I’m sure Charlotte understands your sincerity and will behave appropriately.”

“That doesn’t mean Danrique will do the same. I’ve changed my perception of Charlotte after everything that has happened. I’ll admit that I was wrong for stubbornly splitting you two up and all the horrible things I’ve done to her.

I’m willing to take responsibility for my mistakes and do everything I can to make it up to her, so just tell her to state her demands. However, these kids mean everything to me, and I will not allow anyone to take them from me. The future of the Nacht family depends on them!” Henry was so agitated that even his hands were trembling as he spoke.

“I know, Grandpa. They’re my children, and I’m definitely more concerned about them than you are. I may love Charlotte and all, but I will not make compromises when it comes to the kids. As a man, there’s no way I’m letting my kids take up some other guy’s family name. Don’t worry, I’ll move in and stay with them while Ellie is being treated there. That way, Ellie would be able to see both her parents every day. I’m sure it’ll cheer her up and help her recover faster.” Zachary continued to coax Henry.

“You’re moving in too? If so, this shouldn’t be a problem at all!” Spencer agreed with him right away.

“Are you really going to move in?” Henry was still a little doubtful about it.

“Of course. Where else would I stay? The house at Southridge is still being cleaned up, and I don’t have anywhere else to stay,” Zachary said while waving at him.

“You’d better not be lying to me. Charlotte is no longer that soft and weak woman she used to be, and she was fuming with rage when she left! I doubt she’d let you stay over at her place!” Henry still found it hard to believe.

“I’m doing this for the sake of my child. Ellie’s condition is still highly unstable, so we’re both worried about her.

Also, you know how hard it was for us to find Dr. Felch, so we have to make sure he treats Ellie as soon as possible.

Right now, Charlotte has agreed to put our grudges aside and focus on this task together.” Zachary continued to persuade him.

“Ms. Lindberg may have a hot temper, but she does love her children deeply. It’s a mother’s nature to do so, after all!” Spencer added.

“That, I do believe…” After thinking long and hard about it, Henry nodded his head and said, “Fine. I won’t stop you any further, but make sure you bring all three of them back to me after Ellie’s treatment is complete!”

“You have my word!”

Just like that, Zachary had successfully gained the approval to bring the kids over. They were delighted when they heard they were going to see their mommy, and even Robbie’s gloomy expression was replaced with a bright smile.

Jamie leaped off the sofa and clapped his hands in joy when he heard the news.

Ellie clapped her hands too and shouted happily, “Yay! We’re going to see Mommy!”

“Say goodbye to your great-grandpa, kids! We’re leaving now!”

“Bye bye, Great-grandpa!”

“You kids behave over there, okay? Make sure to come back once the treatment is over!” Henry then held Robbie and Jamie by the hand and reminded them, “I want you two to call me every night and keep me updated on the situation, got it? Let me know if anything happens!”

“We will, Great-grandpa! Don’t worry!”

Henry’s eyes reddened as he sat on his wheelchair and watched the kids happily climb into the car.

“Don’t be sad, Grandpa. I’ll send them back here once Ellie completes her treatment!” Zachary comforted him before getting into the car. Fearing that Henry would suddenly change his mind, he then ordered Marino, “Come on, let’s go!”

“Yes, sir!” Marino then started the engine and drove off.
