Chapter 1103

Charlotte finally budged under the kids’ constant entreat. “Alright. Let me just go get a change. Each of you should also bundle up.”

“Yes, Mommy!”

Since Charlotte was upstairs getting a change, she took the chance to call Louis.

Louis came over to H City to pick her up last time, but she bailed on him because something happened to Ellie.

Even after she managed to save Ellie, she did not have the time and energy to explain everything to Louis because she was too caught up with treating Ellie and Olivia.

Charlotte had told him that she had to delay her trip back to Erihal by half a month and ask him to carry on with his own plans instead of keeping everything on hold waiting for her.

Louis was reluctant at first, but he eventually left.

When he found out that Charlotte was returning to Erihal, he called her early in the morning, but Charlotte missed his call because she was busy looking after Ellie.

Louis seemed to be waiting for Charlotte’s call because he picked up right after she called. After making sure that everything was fine, he told Charlotte that he would meet her at Erihal’s airport and that his father would be accompanying him.

“Sir Robert?” Charlotte was taken by surprise. “Why is he going to Erihal?”

“Yeah. Danrique made an appointment with him. It seems like they want to talk about our marriage, but don’t worry. I’ve told my dad that I won’t proceed with the arrangement if you’re not willing to. It’s just that he thinks dragging this out is not the solution, so he wants to know what you think about it. He wants to hear your opinion about our marriage, so I just want to give you a heads up.”

“Alright. Thanks for letting me know.”

Charlotte frowned upon knowing the news. All this was Danrique’s will. There was nothing she could do about it.

Besides, she had never explicitly rejected his offer.

“Alright. I’ll see you in Xendale then. Bye.”

“Bye.”

Charlotte hung up the phone and sighed. She kept convincing herself to accept things as they were. She told herself there was no way Zachary and her could go back to how things used to be. She should not relent no matter what he did.

“Mommy!”

A parrot flew in through the window.

“Little Fifi,” Charlotte said, putting on her clothes, “I’m almost done. Can you tell Robbie, Jamie, and Ellie that I’ll be there in five?”

“Yes, Mommy!” With that said, Little Fifi flew out again.

Charlotte quickly got ready and went downstairs. They were dressed up and were waiting for her beside the car when she saw them.

“Get in,” she told them, pointing at the Rolls-Royce before turning toward Zachary. “We have to head for the airport latest by two. I don’t want any tricks from you,” she whispered.

“Yes, ma’am,” he said, opening the door for her and gesturing at her politely.

Charlotte rolled her eyes and went in.

The family of five departed with Fifi and Little Fifi in the car.

Behind them, Lupine had three cars escorting them while Bruce and Ben each drove a car to open the way for them.

The fleet drove down the road, putting spectators in awe.

“Where are we going, Daddy?” Jamie was the most excited.

“Let me guess!” Ellie interrupted, “Are we going to the restaurant at Fairytale Land?”

“Or are we going to visit Great-grandpa?”

“Nope,” Zachary said briefly with a mysterious smile on his face. “I won’t breathe a word until we get there.”

“I can’t wait!”

The children were all electrified waiting to know what the surprise was.

Even Little Fifi was flapping her wings and crying out in a high pitch voice. “Can’t wait! Can’t wait!”

Beside her, Fifi looked at the parrot severely. The eagle’s expression was exactly the same as Charlotte’s.

She sat beside the children quietly as she drank some coffee. She looked at the excited lot and could not help but think that Zachary was better at dealing with the kids than she was.

Unlike her, he seemed to have a natural ability to make them happy and spirited.
