Chapter 631
Mistaking a Magnate for a Male Escort
âGrandpa, what about me?â Zachary pretended to be upset.
âCanât you do it yourself?â Henry stared at him while serving him a piece of chicken butt. âTake this!â
âThatâs a chicken butt. Hahahaâ¦â
The children laughed their socks off.
The festive atmosphere and lively chatter lifted everybodyâs mood.
Meanwhile, Mrs. Berry was about to serve fish when she saw the happy scene underneath the tree.
Her eyes couldnât help but redden. âMr. Windt, are you seeing this? Miss has finally found happiness, and she will be married tomorrow.â
âMrs. Berry, why are you crying on a happy occasion such as this?â Mrs. Rawlston comforted her. âYou should smile more. Look how happy Ms. Windt is.â
âThatâs right. It warms my heart when I see how happy she is.â Mrs. Berry wiped away her tears and smiled. âAfter going through so much, they are finally reunited.â
âYouâre right. Allâs well that ends well. It is wonderful indeed!â
Mrs. Rawlston brought out the fruit platter with a wide smile on her face.
Regaining her composure, Mrs. Berry continued serving the dishes.
As the moon illuminated Charlotteâs face, it seemed to be bathing her in silvery light. Her smile was exceptionally gentle and filled with happiness.
Zachary would make sure her plate was full and dote on her affectionately.
Smiling at him, she leaned closer to kiss him on his forehead.
Love was in the air as both of them expressed their affection for each other.
If everything ended at that moment, it would just be like a fairytale ending where the prince and princess lived happily ever after.
Unfortunately, life wasnât a fairytale.
After dinner, the kids wanted to go to the playground.
Zachary pushed Henry along and went with them.
Just when Charlotte was about to follow, she felt a sharp pain at the back of her head. By reflex, she held onto the table for support. The very next second, blood was dripping onto the white napkin.
She covered her nose with the napkin at once and frantically ran into the house.
âMs. Windt, are you alright?â A maid approached her to ask.
âIâm fine. Perhaps my stomach isnât feeling well. Iâll go in and take a look.â
Mrs. Berry stopped the maid as she ran after Charlotte.
âDaddy, why isnât mommy coming along?â Robbie turned around and saw Charlotteâs silhouette. âWhy is she returning to the house?â
âMommy has some orders for me. You guys should just go ahead,â Mrs. Berry turned around and instructed them.
âOkay!â Robbie didnât think too much of it.
âPerhaps she is preparing the dowry,â Zachary commented in amusement. âI wonder how much your mommy has squirreled away in her secret account.â
âMommy doesnât have any money. Sheâs broke.â Jamie frantically tugged at Zacharyâs hand and requested, âDaddy, you should forgo mommyâs dowry.â
âThatâs right. She has spent all her money on us.â Even Ellie was appealing to Zachary with a pout, âDaddy, youâre not allowed to take advantage of mommy.â
âHahahaâ¦â Zachary laughed heartily.
âDaddy, I have received the profits from the software I invented. Why donât you take it as mommyâs dowry?â
Robbie began planning on behalf of Charlotte in earnest as he checked his account. âNow, thereâs thirty-seven million. You can take it all as mommyâs dowry.â
âWow, that much?â Henry was extremely surprised. âRobbie, you really are a genius.â
âExactly. At just three and a half years old, you have already made thirty-seven million!â Ben couldnât help but exclaim. âWhen I was your age, all I did was drink milk.â
âMe too,â Bruce quipped.
âPfftâ¦â Zachary laughed again. As he was recently in a good mood, he gradually became more jovial.
It was likely due to the power of love.
âDaddy, the bank card is in my room. Iâll go get it for you now.â
Robbie turned around and prepared to head back.
Henry quickly stopped him. âFoolish child, your daddy is just pulling your legs. The three of you are the best dowry your mommy can ever give.â
