Chapter 946

"Mommy, please stay back. At least wait till Ellie gets better before you leave." Tugging at Charlotte's sleeve, Robbie suggested, "What if something happens to Ellie while you're gone?" "I'll bring all of you back with me," Charlotte declared.

"Stop messing around." Zachary stopped her at once. "Can't you see how sick Ellie is? Why are you being so persistent?"

"Zachary..."

"For the children's sake, why don't you just stay for the time being?" Zachary was close to pleading. "As for the rest, we'll discuss them later."

Cynthia felt anxious when she heard Zachary's request. Despite tugging at his sleeves, he simply ignored her.

Charlotte hesitated briefly. Although she didn't feel like staying, she couldn't allow Ellie to take any more risks.

Her priority now was for Ellie to recover. Since she couldn't get Francesco and Dr. Felch wasn't back yet, she had no choice but to rely on Cynthia. However, if Cynthia decided to mess around, Ellie would be in real danger.

Hence, she knew she couldn't take the risk.

With that thought in mind, Charlotte finally compromised. "Fine, I'll stay here for a few days until Ellie has recovered."

"That's wonderful." Zachary was delighted. He ordered Ben at once, "Prepare the rooms, including those for the bodyguards."

"Right away." With that, Ben conveyed the message to Mrs. Rawlston.

"Daddy, you look very happy." Jamie looked at Zachary in shock. "You're even smiling."

"Are you sure?" Zachary collected himself quickly.

Charlotte rolled her eyes at him and asserted, "Out with the rest of you. I'll stay here with Ellie."

"I want to stay with Ellie too-"

"Out!"

"Okay."

Before Zachary could finish, Charlotte yelled for him to go out.

Everyone was stunned by what they saw. No one expected the fearless Zachary to actually be afraid of Charlotte.

At the same time, Cynthia's face turned pale as she lost the composure she used to have.

She had to go through so much trouble before being allowed to stay by Zachary's side as his doctor.

But now, Charlotte was allowed to move in with a random excuse.

Furthermore, Zachary treated her as an exclusive guest. He made it look as if the villa was her home.

At the rate things were going, Cynthia's dream of becoming Mrs. Nacht was slowly slipping away. However, she realized that she might now have difficulty staying, let alone continue with her plan.

"Dr. Blackwood, this way please." Lupine ushered her.

As Cynthia walked out with her head hung low, her staff left together with her.

With no outsiders in the room, the children surrounded Charlotte and shouted jubilantly, "Mommy! This is wonderful. You're finally home!"

"I'm only here for the time being," Charlotte explained. "I need to personally watch over Ellie given how sick she is. By the time she recovers, I'll-"

"We'll talk about it when the time comes." Jamie waved his hand and brazenly declared, "Perhaps, by the time Ellie is well, you won't want to leave anymore." "Mmm-hmm, that's right." Robbie nodded with a smile.

"I don't care. All I want is Mommy here with me." Ellie threw herself into Charlotte's embrace and hugged her tightly. "With Mommy around, I'm not afraid of anything." "Good girl, Ellie." Charlotte gently stroked Ellie's hair. "With me here, no one will dare to harm you."

"Mommy, why don't you sleep in my room?" Snuggling up in Charlotte's arms, Ellie refused to let go. "All I want is to be able to hug you every day."

"All right." Charlotte kissed her on her forehead. "I'll stay with you."

"What about me?" Jamie was jealous. "I want Mommy too."

"You're a boy and an elder brother," Robbie reminded him sternly. "Why are you competing with Ellie over this?"

"It's not that," Jamie quickly explained. "I'm not trying to compete with her. I just... forget it, I'm just happy that I can see Mommy every day."

"Be good. Once Ellie has recovered, I'll spend more time with both of you," Charlotte reassured them.
