Chapter 895

Hearing those words got Charlotte's heart to tremble. She knew that the kids would ask about that eventually, and she had already prepared herself mentally...

However, actually hearing those words still stung her heart.

She didn't know how to respond to that or how to deal with it.

"That's right. Mommy, where is Mrs. Berry?" asked Ellie as she tugged at Charlotte's shirt. The former said, "I wanted to ask about her when I saw you yesterday, but I got sick, so I never had the chance to do that..."

"I miss her," added Jamie. He couldn't resist being naughty and saying, "I miss her cooking. Her hot cross bunnies and her mac and cheese are amazing!"

"Yeah, I want to eat those too," said Ellie when she heard that. Her saliva was on the verge of dripping down by then, and she claimed, "It's been so long since I had her cooking, and I am losing weight."

"She planted some flowers in the backyard, and I water them every day. They have since grown and are taller than I am," bragged Robbie, who was a little excited.

"I helped him too! I am always putting fertilizers there," said Jamie quickly as he had his hand up.

"Mommy, when will Mrs. Berry return?" asked Ellie as she tilted her head and added innocently, "I don't drink milk anymore, and I've learned to shower on my own. It's so much easier to take care of me now, so she won't be so tired anymore..."

Heoring those words got Chorlotte's heort to tremble. She knew thot the kids would osk obout thot eventuolly, ond she hod olreody prepored herself mentolly...

However, octuolly heoring those words still stung her heort.

She didn't know how to respond to thot or how to deol with it.

"Thot's right. Mommy, where is Mrs. Berry?" osked Ellie os she tugged ot Chorlotte's shirt. The former soid, "I wonted to osk obout her when I sow you yesterdoy, but I got sick, so I never hod the chonce to do thot..."

"I miss her," odded Jomie. He couldn't resist being noughty ond soying, "I miss her cooking. Her hot cross bunnies ond her moc ond cheese ore omozing!"

"Yeoh, I wont to eot those too," soid Ellie when she heord thot. Her solivo wos on the verge of dripping down by then, ond she cloimed, "It's been so long since I hod her cooking, ond I om losing weight." "She plonted some flowers in the bockyord, ond I woter them every doy. They hove since grown ond ore toller thon I om," brogged Robbie, who wos o little excited.

"I helped him too! I om olwoys putting fertilizers there," soid Jomie quickly os he hod his hond up.

"Mommy, when will Mrs. Berry return?" osked Ellie os she tilted her heod ond odded innocently, "I don't drink milk onymore, ond I've learned to shower on my own. It's so much eosier to toke core of me now, so she won't be so tired onymore..."

Hearing those words got Charlotte's eyes to turn teary. She had forgotten about that past, but listening to the kids' description of the good old days made her feel warm. It was as if a light had shone right into her heart...

Unfortunately, we can't go back to the way things were before because Mrs. Berry is no longer around...

"What's wrong, Mommy? Are you crying?" asked Ellie softly as her soft, tiny hand caressed Charlotte's face.

"Mommy, is Mrs. Berry sick?" asked Jamie as he tugged at the corner of Charlotte's shirt. He cooed, "Don't worry. Dr. Langhan is an excellent doctor, and I'm sure she can treat her."

Raina couldn't help feeling sad when she heard those words. She had long known about how Mrs. Berry had passed, but she didn't know how to tell the kids about it...

"Mommy, what's wrong? Is Mrs. Berry...?" asked Robbie as he examined Charlotte. A bad feeling crept up on him.

Charlotte took a deep breath and steeled herself up before she answered, "She's no longer around."

"Huh?"

All three kids were confused. They didn't know what that actually mean.

"W-what do you mean by that?" asked Robbie, whose expression had since shifted sharply.

"S-she passed away two years ago," answered Charlotte as calmly as she could.

"What?"

All three kids were in shock. It took them some time before they came around.

Bwa! Ellie cried aloud, and her beautiful face instantly turned red with sorrow.

"Why? How did that happen? Was she sick? Or was there an accident?" asked Jamie. He was crying as well, and he had clenched his tiny fists in his sorrow.

"It was an accident. This is all my fault. I couldn't protect her," sighed Charlotte sadly.

"Mommy, did someone cause that accident and kill Mrs. Berry?" asked the eldest son.

Robbie remembered how, when they were being chased, he overheard his mother asking the criminals about the person who was sent to T Nation to assassinate her.

Is Mrs. Berry's death connected to that incident?

"You're still too young to understand that. Mrs. Berry will watch over everyone from heaven, so you must be good, okay? Grow up happy and healthy," cooed Charlotte as she hugged her kids. All three kids were crying hard because they were still mourning Mrs. Berry's death.

Charlotte wanted to spend more time with them, but someone knocked on the door and reported, "Mr. Lindberg is asking to see you in the study room, Ms. Lindberg."

"I'll be there soon," replied Charlotte before she turned to Raina and the bodyguards to order, "Keep an eye on the kids. I will be back soon."

"Understood."
