Mistaking a Magnate for a Male Escort novel Chapter 977

“Morning!” Zachary greeted as he slowly pushed Henry to the dining table. “Where are your manners?”

“Good morning, Great-grandpa,” greeted the triplets.

“Good day.” Henry didn’t seem too well that morning. He looked wan, showing he didn’t have a good night’s rest. Yet, he managed an affectionate smile for the kids.

He frowned at Ellie. “Why are you so thin?”

“I’m not feeling well, Great-grandpa.”

She answered arduously, followed by a string of coughs.

“How are you feeling, Ellie?” Charlotte immediately patted Ellie’s back gently. “It’s chilly here. Let me take you upstairs.”

Charlotte hadn’t wanted to deal with Henry. She was planning to leave right after sending Ellie back to her room.

“Have Mrs. Rawlston send her instead,” Zachary insisted. “Robbie and Jamie, have you finished? Go upstairs and accompany Ellie.”

“But I’m not full yet-”

Before Jamie got to finish, Zachary cast him a glance to silence him.

Jamie soon realized Zachary wanted them upstairs. And so the former took a handful of hot cross bunnies, got up, then trailed after Mrs. Rawlston and Ellie.

“Mommy…” Robbie worried about Charlotte being ill-treated without them there.

“Go ahead.” Charlotte ruffled Robbie’s head and comforted softly, “Don’t worry. I’ll come and pick you guys up soon.”

“But they-” Henry opened his mouth to speak, but when he caught Robbie’s sharp gaze, the former snapped his mouth shut.

Robbie embraced Charlotte then turned to Zachary. “Daddy, do you remember the promise you made to me to protect Mommy two years ago?”

“I remember.” Zachary stared at Robbie. “I won’t break that promise. Believe me.”

Robbie was taken aback by the determined look in Zachary’s eyes. It was a rare sight to see.

“All right.” Robbie decided to believe in Zachary. “I believe you.”

“Good boy. Head upstairs then.”
