qEveryone was busy with their own work. Although Morgan and the other female bodyguards were watching over the trio, their attention was focused on upstairs.
All of them were worried about Zachary. Thus, no one paid attention to the conversation between the three children.
After a while, things began to settle down.
However, that time around, even Raina broke down in tears. “I really don't know what else I can do. When I called Dr. Wright, she told us to prepare for the worst. I—”
“There has to be a way.” Ben refused to give up. “I'll give Bruce a call right away. Earlier today, he told me that Ms. Lindberg had provided him with some new leads. Perhaps, just perhaps—”
“Ben, Ms. Lindberg has returned,” Marino interjected to report Charlotte's arrival.
Ben hurried over to receive her.
At that moment, Charlotte had just gotten out of the car. When she saw the look on the bodyguards' and subordinates' faces, her heart sank, and she dashed into the house.
“Ms. Lindberg!” Ben ran into her at the staircase.
“What happened to him?” she inquired anxiously.
“He fainted right after having dinner. But for now, his condition has stabilized.” His voice was quavering. “H-However, at this rate, he...”
Charlotte's expression froze as she rushed into the bedroom. When she saw how frail Zachary looked on the bed, her body began to tremble.
“Mommy...”
The children, who had been led out a while back, came back in crying when they heard that their mother had returned.
“Mr. Nacht fainted by the dinner table, which frightened the children,” Ben whispered.
Charlotte's heart broke when she saw the children crying so hard to the point that they were even trembling. Squatting down to hug them, she put on a strong front and reassured, “Kids, don't cry. Daddy will definitely recover.”
Despite the children's desperate attempt to stop crying, they still could not hold back their sniffles.
“Mommy, is Daddy going to die?” Ellie could not help but ask.
“No, he isn't,” Charlotte replied in a shaky voice. “Daddy will definitely get better. I will save him no matter what.”
