Chapter 893

“Danrique, the kids are too young to know better. Please don’t hold it against them,” pleaded Charlotte softly.

Danrique smiled with his brow raised.

Just then, a black figure flew in from outdoors. Like a sharp arrow, it zipped over and landed right on Robbie’s head.

“Ah!”

Jamie and Ellie hopped away from the sofa and crawled into Charlotte’s arms right away.

Little Fifi screamed fearfully and flapped its wings before hiding away in Robbie’s arm.

Robbie’s tiny face turned pale. He was scared out of his mind, but he wore a calm expression on his face.

The eagle flew and stood in front of Robbie. It flapped its wings as its sharp eyes locked in on Robbie.

It was a huge eagle with enormous wings, so a gust of wind would mess Robbie’s hair up every time it flapped its wings.

“Robbie…” said Charlotte. She wanted to head over to protect her son, but Danrique’s men prevented her from doing so.

Robbie mustered up his courage and glared back at the eagle before demanding, “Go away!”

Screech!

The eagle let out a nerve-wracking screech and circled above Robbie’s head a little before it flew away.

Danrique’s eyes glowed with even more admiration when he looked at Robbie. He asked, “Aren’t you scared of the eagle?”

“What’s there to be afraid of?” challenged Robbie as he rolled his eyes at Danrique, then caressed the shivering parrot in his arms. Robbie pointed out, “That eagle is just like the parrot and they are both Mommy’s pet.”

“Good, I like your style,” replied Danrique. He smiled, and to everyone’s surprise, the icy aura in his eyes was slowly dissipating.

“I’ll have the kids return to their rooms for now.”

Charlotte had the maids take the kids to the second floor right away.

Raina held a medical kit and had her head down as she followed along.

Danrique shot a look over, but he never commented on anything. He simply sipped his wine.

Everyone hurried to the second floor.

Raina sighed a long breath of relief after the door was closed. She felt like she was walking on thin ice the entire time.

“Mr. Lindberg!”

Lupine, Morgan, and the others came over to report some matter.

It didn’t take long before their agonized scream came. It only lasted a second before silence fell once more.

“What was that?” asked Jamie as he run over to open the door.

“Jamie, it’s nothing!” answered Charlotte, who ran over immediately to stop him.

“Uncle Dan is so scary, Mommy. I’m scared of him. I want to go home,” requested Ellie as she curled up on the sofa and hugged her doll. She pouted her lips like she was going to cry.

“I want to go home too. I miss Daddy,” added Jamie, who was pouting as well.

Charlotte felt terrible as she stared at her kids. She wanted to spend more time with them, but they were already scared out of their minds, even though everything had just begun…

“Mommy, this is for you. You’re its rightful owner,” announced Robbie before he got something from his pocket and handed it over to Charlotte.

Charlotte held that black gold ring with her. When she first regained consciousness, her heart stung and a bad feeling crept up on her every time she saw it. Unfortunately, she didn’t feel right throwing it away, so she tied it to her eagle.

Who would’ve thought that Robbie will stumble upon it and trace it back to me? This kid had it rough…

“Thank you, Robbie,” replied Charlotte before she put it on and promised, “I will treasure this from now on because you are the one who got it back for me.”

“Mommy, I will protect you from now on,” promised Robbie softly as he hugged Charlotte.

“Silly boy,” teased Charlotte who smiled upon hearing that promise, “You’re only six, so how will you protect me?

Besides, I am very powerful now, so no one can bully me.”

“But Uncle Dan is so mean. Will he hurt you?” asked Ellie as she pouted her lips and frowned.

“He won’t. I won’t be here if it weren’t for him. Two years ago, I got into an accident, and he rescued me. He is the only reason I am here now,” answered Charlotte firmly.

“I see. No wonder you disappeared all of a sudden. We cried for so long back then,” shared Jamie as the revelation hit him.

“Mommy, where is Mrs. Berry?” asked Robbie. He had been keeping that question to himself, but he could no longer suppress his curiosity.
