Chapter 841
Mistaking a Magnate for a Male Escort
âEither way, the Blackwoods will be finished sooner or laterâ¦â Bruce had always been the one not to mince his words. âBut if Taylor were to come to you to beg now, how would you respond?â
âIâll leave him alone,â Zachary replied as he frowned, âThere are always consequences to oneâs actions. The Blackwoods will have to live with the outcome they have brought upon themselves.â
After all, he himself was fully exposed and vulnerable. Unable to protect himself, he could not afford to care for others.
Bruce caught his hint and acknowledged, âUnderstood. If he calls again, Iâll find another excuse to reject him.â
Very soon, their car reached the hospital.
Raina was already waiting at the door. Seeing Zacharyâs car pulling over, she immediately rushed to meet him. âMr.
Nacht.â
âWhatâs up?â Zachary hurriedly headed towards the hospital.
âHeâs out of the critical stage,â Raina informed, but continued solemnly, âHowever his current state is still dangerously unstable. Weâll have to observe for another twenty-four hours to access the situation.â
Breathing a sigh of relief, Zachary was glad. After all, not being in a life-threatening situation was already a blessing in the midst of misfortune.
âWhat went wrong? How could he just fall down like that?â Zachary frowned as he questioned.
âHereâs the surveillance recording of Fairytale Land. You can view it yourself.â Raina handed the tablet in her hand to Zachary.
He took a look and furrowed his brows even deeper. This showed Henryâs lapse of judgment. After all, Robbie had a safety harness coupled with his climbing rope. Yet Henry chose to jump out to save others, causing his own fallâ¦
âMr. Zachary, youâre finally back.â
Spencer greeted him excitedly. His pair of muddled old eyes were bloodshot red.
âGrandpa was reallyâ¦â Zachary was both anxious and angry. âAt such an advanced age, does he still think that he is young? Heâs nearly a century old, yet he chooses not to pay any heed to his own body condition at all.â
âMr. Henry cares too much for the children,â Spencer defended in a choking voice. âHis fall two years ago resulted in two full months of hospitalization. Since then he never really stood up well. For him to experience another fall now⦠Even though it may not be life-threatening, yetâ¦â
âHeâll be fine,â Zachary consoled comfortingly as he patted Spencer on the latterâs shoulder, âDonât forget that the person weâre worried about is the Henry Nacht who shook the world. He wonât go down easy.â
âI hope so,â Spencer said, his eyes turning red. âMr. Henry is currently asleep. Iâll stand guard here. You should take the three children home first and comfort them the best you can, especially young Mr. Robinson. Iâm worried about his current state of mind and his psychological burdenâ¦â
âTheyâre still here at the hospital?â Zachary frowned.
âAfter the incident, they were brought to the hospital together,â Raina quickly explained. âI coaxed them a few times to go back to rest, but the three of them were worried about Mr. Henry so they insisted to stay. At one oâclock this morning, Jamie and Ellie could not keep their eyes open and fell asleep at the lounge. As for Robbieâ¦â
âMr. Robinson is still in Mr. Henryâs ward,â Spencer informed as he added, âIâve tried persuading him to take a rest, but he was quiet throughout. Iâm worried about him. Even though he looked calm and indifferent, out of the three, he is the most loyalâ¦â
âI understand.â With that, Zachary hurried towards Henryâs ward.
Upon reaching the ward, he could see Robbie clad in an isolation gown and seated beside the old manâs bed. The young boy was silently staring at Henry like a small statue without saying a single wordâ¦
Zachary observed the boyâs back and was filled with a tinge of sadness. Taking a deep breath, he pushed open the door to the ward and walked in quietlyâ¦
Robbie could feel someone tapping on his shoulder and thought it was Spencer. Without looking back, he growled in a low voice, âIâm not sleepy. I want to stay here with Great-grandpa.â
âGreat-grandpa is asleep. You should go back and catch some sleep as well.â Zacharyâs voice rang from behind, sounding very serious.
Robbie was stunned to hear the voice. Turning his head, he looked upon his father in surprise, âDaddy? Youâre back?â
âI got to know about the incident and rushed back immediately.â Squatting down, Zachary patted his little shoulders and softly said, âCome. Come home with Daddy.â
âButâ¦â
âBe a good, obedient boy, now,â Zachary interrupted him. âAfter Daddy sends you back, Iâll come back and be with Great-grandpa. Now, be good, aye?â
His words proved effective as Robbie nodded almost immediately, âAye!â
