Charlotte was touched upon hearing what her children said. Back then, Charlotte couldn’t understand why her
children trusted Zachary after she left for two years. After all, she raised the three kids single-handedly till they
were four years old.
All the more so, the kids still missed the Nacht residence even after she had returned.
At that moment, Charlotte believed she found the answer.
Zachary devoted himself to taking care of the children and changed a lot for them. Besides, he worked hard and
treated them sincerely to earn their trust bit by bit.
“Alright, let’s have breakfast,” Zachary served up a bowl of vegetable beef soup for Charlotte and said to the kids,
“Mommy is the greatest of all, for she was pregnant for ten months and risked her life to give birth to all of you.
Besides, she even raised you by herself. On the contrary, all I’ve done is to cook some food for you.”
Charlotte gazed at Zachary meaningfully as he spoke. As far as I remember, Zachary won’t say such things in the
past.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIt seems that he has changed a lot over the past two years.
“Mommy, this is for you. It smells good and is delicious.” Ellie gave Charlotte a piece of salt and pepper rib.
“Thank you, Ellie”
Charlotte’s lips curled into a sweet smile.
Meanwhile, Zachary felt relieved when he sensed the change in Charlotte’s expression. Deep down, he believed
that the children could resolve the hatred embedded in her heart.
Perhaps she can let go of the past after some time.
Suddenly, Dr. Felch said to Zachary, “Mr. Nacht, I should thank you. When I met an accident two years ago, you
arranged with the hospital management to provide treatment for me. Besides, you also took care of Hayley and
Sam.”
Zachary responded, “You’re welcome. Anyway, I should bear the responsibility because you met the accident partly
because of the Nacht family.”
“Whatever it is, thank you.” Dr. Felch proposed a toast with a cup of tea as a form of appreciation.
Zachary immediately raised his cup in response.
“When I met the accident two years ago, I was unconscious and didn’t know what happened since then. However, I
believe now that Mr. Nacht is a responsible man. Well, I hope I’m right!” Dr. Felch said meaningfully.
“Thank you!”
Zachary was surprised that Dr. Felch accepted him in such a short time.
“Dr. Felch, please try it.” Charlotte picked up a piece of rib for him and changed the subject. “We can take a stroll
around the hill when we are free later. Also, feel free to go around this place except for the backyard.”
“I took a glance at the backyard from the window yesterday. There seem to be some special flowers and plants in
it. Besides, there are some special pets!” Dr. Felch said.
“Well, Danrique raises them…”
Speaking of which, Charlotte reminded the kids, “Robbie, Jamie, and Ellie. Remember not to go to the backyard, get
it?”
“Got it,” the three kids answered in unison.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThey were aware of the taboo ever since they met Danrique. Hence, they remembered it and wouldn’t go near the
backyard.
“Well, it seems to me that the legendary Mr. Lindberg is a special man.” After putting on a smile, Dr. Felch said to
Zachary, “It won’t be easy to get along with the special bother-in-law in the future!”
Zachary was taken aback, for it was the first time someone discussed something like that with him.
Nevertheless, he thought Dr. Felch’s words served as a timely reminder for him.
Since Danrique was his brother-in-law, Zachary thought his family was deeply related to Danrique’s. Also, he felt
that his relationship with Charlotte would improve if he could get along with Danrique.
After all, only the elders of the Lindberg and the Nacht families held grudges against one another. On the contrary,
Danrique and Zachary didn’t experience it and weren’t affected. In other words, the hatred between the two
families was not so intense to them.
The situation only worsened when something happened to Charlotte two years ago.
Hence, Zachary thought if Zara and Sharon were brought to justice, Charlotte could probably let go of her hatred.
Under such circumstances, he believed it would be a turn for the better.
