“What the hell is wrong with you?” Zachary furrowed his brows at her.
Charlotte said nothing as she glanced at his phone.
He traced her gaze, and noticed that his phone was still buzzing and the flashing caller ID screen. He hung up the call and turned his phone off.
Still, Charlotte said nothing as she kept her head low.
He did not seem like he had the intention of explaining things to her and kept driving.
The car reached the Happy Avenue residential estate in no time.
Charlotte removed her seatbelt to get off the car. Zachary reminded her again, “Ten o'clock tonight.”
She was burning with fury but she tried her best to hold it in. “Noted.”
Then, she rushed back home.
Zachary sat in the car, watching her silhouette getting further and further away from him. Suddenly, a sense of crisis washed over the man. I... am getting more and more smitten with this woman.
Charlotte rushed back home. The nurses were keeping her triplets company as they played. Ellie dashed in her mother's direction when she noticed the latter coming home.
She squatted down and greeted Ellie with a warm hug.
“Mommy, you're finally back.” Ellie circled her small arms around her mother's neck and pouted. Sobbing, she said, “We thought you don't want us anymore.”
“Don't be silly,” Charlotte hurriedly explained herself. “Sorry, no more next time.”
“Mommy's had a hard day,” Ellie held back her tears and massaged Charlotte's shoulders. “Let me give you a massage.”
“Thank you, Ellie.” Charlotte planted a kiss on her cheeks.
“Mommy, did that bad boss bully you again?” Jamie clenched his fist and asked angrily, “I will beat him up if he bullies you again.”
“No, he did not bully me.”
Charlotte shook her head, afraid that the triplets might misunderstand Zachary further. This would make things awkward when they meet each other in the future.
