When Charlotte heard that, she gritted his teeth in fury. Damn you! If you ask the kids directly, they’ll definitely agree. In that case, I’ll be the bad person if I keep refusing.
“What happened to Great-grandpa?” As expected, the children asked anxiously, “Is he sick?”
“What does critically ill mean?” Only Robbie caught that keyword.
“It means that… he’s going to leave us forever,” revealed Zachary sadly. “We need to meet him at the hospital for the last time.”
“What?” Jamie was stunned. “Are you saying that Great-grandpa’s going to die?”
Ellie immediately burst into tears, feeling sad and fearful at the same time.
“Ellie…” Charlotte quickly hugged her and coaxed, “Don’t be scared. I’m here for you!”
Ellie jumped into Charlotte’s arms and wailed sorrowfully.
Meanwhile, Charlotte glared at Zachary furiously. He shouldn’t have told that to the kids! He’s making them so sad.
However, Zachary explained calmly, “Everyone will eventually die. Bad guys go to hell, while the good guys go to heaven. There’s no need to feel sad because Great-grandpa will go to heaven. He’ll protect you from there!”
“Since Great-grandpa’s a good man, he’ll go to heaven, right?” asked Jamie as he sobbed.
“Yeah.” Zachary nodded.
Jamie threw himself into Zachary’s arms and cried.
Hugging Jamie with one arm and Robbie with the other, Zachary consoled them gently, “Alright, we need to go to the hospital immediately!”
With that, he carried the two boys and was about to leave when Charlotte stopped him. She growled, “What are you doing? Have I agreed?”
“We can talk after coming back. Let’s go to the hospital now!” Zachary frowned.
“Zachary, don’t push your luck!” Charlotte was fuming.
“You should ask for the children’s opinion!” Zachary asked the kids, “Robbie, Jamie, Ellie, are you willing to follow me to the hospital to visit Great-grandpa?”
“Yes!” The children nodded.
Rage surged through Charlotte. You are simply too despicable!
