Mistaking a Magnate for a Male Escort Chapter 481
That’s weird. Why didn’t the bad guy feel any pain?
Not a sound out of him.
Ellie directed her hatred-filled eyes to gaze at Zachary. Her face was red with anger.
Zachary bent over with an arm outstretched. He hoisted her up as easily as a baby chick.
“Let go of me!” Ellie demanded. She trembled, thinking that Zachary wanted to hit her. She kicked and struggled in vain.
Ellie scrunched up her face and wailed loudly.
“Let go of Ellie!” Jamie fired his gun at Zachary.
The toy bullets struck his thigh with several dull thuds. That should hurt.
Compared to Ellie, these should do more damage.
“Stop!” Several guards rushed over, as Mr. Nacht was being overwhelmed by the children’s onslaught.
Jamie turned and pointed his gun at them, intending to hold them back. But a guard grabbed his toy in one swift motion.
“Give me back my gun!” Jamie shouted, looking as though he was fit to leap up if not for his broken leg.
“How dare you!” Zachary yelled at the guards. Fearing his employer, the guard hurriedly returned the child’s toy and stood against the wall.
“Stop screaming, Jamie,” Mildred was frantic. “Mr. Nacht will not hurt Robbie, I promise you.”
“Then how did Robbie fall ill while he was with him?” Jamie demanded, staring at Zachary with distaste.
Zachary took Ellie by the hand and led her to Jamie’s side. He knelt down and was about to address the children when Jamie swung a fist that met his nose with a crunch.
Though it wasn’t particularly painful, the real sting was the embarrassment of it.
Zachary clenched his eyes and furrowed his brow. The bystanders were breathless with horror at Jamie’s audacity.
Mr. Nacht has never been disrespected in any way before.
How will he react?
“You’ve gone too far, you little rascal!” A guard bellowed, reaching out to grab Jamie.
“Step down,” Zachary commanded grimly. The guard obeyed without a word.
No one else dared to voice their displeasure. However, they eyed Zachary warily.
Ben, who just arrived, was equally speechless. He hid his face in his hands, unsure of what to say.
“You bullied my mommy and Robbie. I won’t let you get away with this! You just wait until I’m grown up. I will pay you back twice as much the pain!” Jamie shook a little fist and shouted, looking like an angry little lion cub.
“That’s right,” Ellie said, her face flushed with righteous anger. “You are a jerk. I thought you wanted to be my friend, but if this is what you really are, I won’t hold back on you!”
As soon as she uttered those words, Ellie headbutted Zachary in the chest with all the strength she could muster.
Zachary would have fallen over if he was not a practitioner of martial arts. He merely swayed, but held his ground.
Zachary felt aggrieved. He was used to dealing with murderous beasts and savage foes. These little children who seemed to hate him with a passion, however…
All of a sudden, his salvation arrived.
“Jamie!” came a feeble voice from within, with a trace of the authority of an elder sibling. “Stop that racket!”
Zachary saw that Robbie had arisen. He shuffled towards the door with his drip, looking pale and exhausted. “Uncle Zack did not hurt me. It was my mistake. I’m allergic to peach, and have had some peach juice by mistake.”
“Robbie…” Ellie rushed over as quickly as she could to hold him. “How do you feel? Does it hurt?” she asked tenderly.
“Just a little,” Robbie sighed with a resigned air. “I wanted to lay down for a nap, but you were all too loud.”
“Sorry, Robbie.” Jamie pushed a wheelchair towards him. “I was thinking that something had happened to you. You made me worry,” Jamie said in a shaky voice.
“You should apologize to Uncle Zack.” Robbie jerked his chin to indicate Zachary.
Mistaking a Magnate for a Male Escort Chapter 482
Jamie glanced timidly at Zachary. He felt that he should be apologizing, but words failed him.
He was only three and a half, but he had pride.
“It’s fine,” Zachary said loudly, sparing Jamie the necessity to speak. “Have a good rest.”
He then turned around to instruct the nurses, “Take good care of them!”
“Yes, Mr. Nacht,” the nurses replied, scrambling to round up the children.
Zachary glanced at Robbie once more before departing, with Ben hurrying to keep pace.
Zachary addressed him in a low voice, and he turned around to address the guards, “You four, the children’s safety is in your hands.”
“Yes, sir!”
“Robbie, Jamie, Ellie, let’s head back to the ward.” The nurses led the way.
Outside, the four bodyguards stood as still as statues, barring the entrance with their wide physiques.
“What are they doing?” Ellie asked in a frightened voice. She hid in the folds of Violet and peered timidly outside.
“Don’t be afraid, child. They are sent by Mr. Nacht to protect you,” Violet assured Ellie.
“Robbie, is he a bad man?” Jamie frowned, concerned. “Was he the one who captured Mommy?”
“No, he wasn’t,” Robbie replied, feeling exhausted as he stretched out on his bed. “He did not capture her. He told me that Mommy will be back tomorrow.”
“Really?” Jamie was overjoyed. His young handsome face was radiant.
“That’s great!” Ellie clapped excitedly. “We can finally see Mommy again.”
“Mommy! Mommy!” squawked Fifi the parrot.
“Alright, children. You need to rest now,” Amelia said. “Jamie, Ellie, these two beds are for you. You tuck yourselves in, I will bring you some milk in a while.”
“Did you bring my bottle?” Ellie asked, her eyes widening expectantly. “And my little lamb!”
“Yes, we’ve brought everything, don’t worry,” Violet started unpacking their belongings.
“I don’t want a bottle,” Jamie said in a low voice, not wanting to wake Robbie, who just fell asleep. “I want a cup. I’m a big boy!”
“Very well, now get into bed,” the nurse said.
On the other side of the building, Zachary arrived at the laboratory, eagerly awaiting Raina’s test results.
Ben understood his anxiety but felt that it was unnecessary.
If they were indeed Mr. Nacht’s children, his relationship with Charlotte would mend. Besides that, the Nacht family would not be short on heirs.
Buzz. Ben’s phone buzzed. He glanced at it and leaned towards Zachary. “It’s Spencer. He’s calling.”
“Don’t tell him about the DNA test,” Zachary whispered.
“I won’t.” Ben didn’t understand why but obeyed him anyway. “Hello, Spencer!”
“The other two kids are at Kindness Hospital too?” Spencer asked.
“Yes, they just arrived,” Ben answered. “They were cursing and hitting Mr. Nacht. It’s a good thing he didn’t take offense, though.”
Spencer sighed. “It’s not in his nature for Mr. Zachary to pick fights with three-year-old. Anyhow, the kids are cute. He will grow fond of them once he interacts with them more.”
“That’s right.” Ben nodded.
“I’ve just received a call from Ms. Zara. She’s coming to visit Mr. Henry tomorrow night.” Spencer’s voice suddenly turned tired and sad. “Is Mr. Zachary aware of this?”
Ben did not answer but handed the phone over to Zachary.
“Yes, I am,” he said coldly. “Tomorrow at seven in the evening, I will meet her at the lobby of the hospital, and escort her to meet Grandpa.”
“Roger that,” said Spencer. “Mr. Henry’s condition has improved greatly tonight. He asked to see you when he woke up. Would you like to come over tomorrow morning?”
“Alright, I will drop by tomorrow,” Zachary replied. “The children are being taken care of over here, so you don’t have to come for them.”
“Yes, Mr. Zachary,” said Spencer.
Mistaking a Magnate for a Male Escort Chapter 483
Zachary remained behind the door of the lab, anxious for the results of the DNA test.
At that moment, nothing can be more important than the answer to this question.
He was desperate and mad with waiting, like a man whose wife is in labor.
Raina convinced him to get some rest—the test would take at least another few hours.
Zachary assigned two bodyguards to wait in his place and visited the pediatric ward.
He observed the sleeping children. The longer he looked, the more convinced he was that they were his.
Robbie slept soundly, in a stiff position that perfectly embodies his strict and disciplined character.
Jamie slept with limbs sprawled in all directions. The foot freshly out of its cast was on a little stool by the bed. He was still clutching his toy pistol.
Ellie was suckling on a pacifier. She clutched her plush alpaca and snored gently, without a care in the world.
Zachary felt his heart melt away from the sight of the kids before him. He didn’t think they looked like him when they first met, but now he’s not so sure anymore.
It’s the imposing and domineering characteristics that were trademark traits of the Nachts that made Zachary feel all the more convinced of his theory.
“Mommy…” Ellie was startled awake and sobbed for her mother.
Violet, who was dozing at the side of her bed, did not notice.
Zachary rushed into the ward and comforted Ellie. He held her hand and patted her chest gently—just like how Robbie was comforted by the medic earlier.
Ellie fell back asleep soon after and hugged his arm. He tried extracting it but she held on to it tightly. The slightest movement would wake her again.
He had no choice but to bend over with his arm outstretched for the sleeping child.
After a long while, the pain in his waist was unbearable. He decided to alleviate it by squatting down.
It helped for a little while, but soon his legs were going numb. He had no intention of sitting on the hospital floor, as the hygiene of the floor was something he would rather not contemplate.
So there he remained. An hour passed, and then another.
Finally, he had had enough. Germs or not, his thighs were killing him. So he sank down onto the floor with a groan. He looked up at Ellie’s sweet face in the moonlight.
She smelled like milk all over. Her exquisite little face looked exactly like her mother, even down to her manner of sleeping.
She looked adorable in his eyes. He pinched her plump cheeks, unable to help himself.
She drooled in her sleep through the corner of her mouth.
Zachary eyed the impending droplet of saliva with some apprehension. Please do not drip… Please do not drip…
To his anguish, the massive, sticky blob of drool broke off and landed on his arm. It did not stop there—it continued to flow downwards.
Zachary, being a germophobe, felt like he was in a waking nightmare. He tried once more to tug his arm out of her grasp, but she held on even tighter. Even worse, she rubbed her face against his arm, which sent out another stream of drool.
Zachary’s brow furrowed with stress. His eyes followed the stream helplessly. It felt like a kitten sharpening its claws against his skin, which made him deeply uneasy.
This was what germophobes had to contend with.
Before, Zachary would just volunteer his arm, and give it a quick rinse if it got soiled on.
But now, he was incapable of that. Still frowning with anxiety, he nevertheless kept his position on the floor.
Looking around for some paper towel to wipe the drool, he caught sight of some on a shelf not too far away. He stretched with all his might to reach it without waking the little girl.
Outside, through the clear glass door, Ben witnessed the entire scene in disbelief. Zachary Nacht, in all his strategic and diplomatic prowess, was being tethered and drooled on by a kid?
This was depressing!
Zachary finally managed to grab hold of the paper towel by his fingertips. He heaved a huge sigh of relief.
Mistaking a Magnate for a Male Escort Chapter 484
Zachary tore off a generously large sheet and wiped his arm, as well as the drenched cheeks and lips of Ellie, who was still fast asleep.
He tossed the soaked wad over into the bin not far away, landing perfectly with one try.
After all was said and done, he exhaled in relief again. It was hard work to care for a child.
How did Charlotte do it all those years?
One is bad enough, but three…
Thud. Something fell over.
Zachary turned and caught sight of Jamie’s gun on the floor by his bed. He jumped in his sleep and rolled off the bed.
Zachary shot out his leg to intercept Jamie. He fell onto it and clung on like a koala bear.
Currently, Zachary’s left arm and right leg were occupied by one child each. He was forced to remain frozen, limbs stretched out in opposite directions, like a grotesque performer of sorts.
Zachary attempted to retract his leg, but at the slightest hint of movement, Jamie clung on harder.
He did the same with his arm. Ellie held on as well.
Well, this is great. Both are stuck on me.
Zachary pondered on his current predicament. He prided himself on his ability to solve problems. However, that day was the first time he’d doubted himself. They’re just children, how hard could it be?
A minute passed. Five more. Ten minutes. Twenty minutes was gone.
Zachary did not feel a thing. However, at the one-hour mark, his leg began to seize up.
Ben was prepared to come in and assist, but as he was about to, he caught sight of Robbie being wide awake, staring at Zachary unblinkingly.
That was a gaze of admiration from the little fellow!
Zachary was not aware that he was being watched. He was deeply focused on maintaining his balance. He was doing well and nearly forgot about the cramp in his thigh until Jamie who had his butt towards Zachary let out a fart.
Poof.
Zachary shut his eyes and held his breath.
Oh, God! Please have mercy on me! What creature is this?
I don’t even mind that they use my arms and legs as bolsters.
But to drool and to fart on me!
“It’s stinky! It’s stinky!” Robbie couldn’t bear it any longer. “Jamie must have had baked potatoes yesterday.” He fanned the air with his hands.
“Stinky!” screamed Fifi the parrot on the side of Jamie’s bed, and flapped its wings.
Ellie turned over and started to sob again. She let go of Zachary’s arm and rubbed her tear-stained eyes.
“What’s wrong?” Zachary asked gently, fearing that he had made her uncomfortable.
“Ignore her. She has a temper,” Robbie said, poking Amelia awake.
Amelia was horrified. She ran over in a panic and pried Jamie away from him. “Mr. Nacht, are you alright?” she asked nervously.
“I’m fine,” Zachary responded, trying to stand upright before realizing that he was cramped all over.
Aware that Robbie was still watching him, he strode out of there, desperate to cling on to some dignity.
“Uncle Zack,” Robbie called just as he reached the door.
“Yes?” he turned back to address the boy.
“Thank you!” said Robbie softly. It wasn’t much, but for Robbie to transform from suspicious and mistrusting to warm and grateful, meant the world to Zachary.
“You’re welcome.” Zachary smiled with genuine pleasure. “Rest well!”
With that, he went through the door. As soon as he closed it, his face contorted with pain. He slapped his thighs gently to get some blood flowing again.
“Mr. Nacht, are you all right?” Ben rushed over to support him.
“I’m fine,” Zachary replied curtly, too proud to display weakness. “When am I ever not fine?”
“Not easy raising kids, huh?” Ben grinned. “Especially three at once.”
“What’s not easy about it?” Zachary was surly. “Three little rascals—easy peasy.”
Mistaking a Magnate for a Male Escort Chapter 485
“Hahaha! That’s for sure! There’s nothing you can’t do.”
Ben couldn’t help but laugh. He never thought Mr. Nacht would be so adorable and interesting before.
“Of course!” Zachary finally walked to a corner and instructed. “I need an empty ward to take a shower.”
“Yes, Mr. Nacht!”
It was already dawn by the time Zachary finished showering and got change.
He tidied himself up and rushed to the laboratory.
Meanwhile, Spencer called again to confirm what time he would be there.
Zachary looked at Raina instead of answering him instantly.
Raina took the DNA test report and hurriedly walked over, she was beaming with excitement and pleasure.
Zachary felt a sense of relief from Raina’s expression. Immediately, he answered, “I will be there at nine!”
“Alright. I’ll be waiting for you downstairs at nine o’clock.”
He then hung up the phone and stepped forward immediately, “How is it?”
“Mr. Nacht, look at this.” Raina handed Zachary his test report.
Zachary took it over to have a look on the report. He couldn’t help but quiver even it was within his expectation. He was so emotional upon seeing the report with his own eyes.
The paternity test showed a hundred percent match, which meant Robbie was his biological son!
Ben was shocked to see the result as well. “Oh my God! I can’t believe the three children are actually your biological children.”
Raina responded in excitement, “I actually discovered that quite some time ago, but I didn’t dare to mention. I was such a fool! I should’ve suggested you to do the DNA test earlier.”
“They are mine… “ Zachary’s hands trembled while holding the test report. “They are really my flesh and blood!”
Ben’s brows raised in delight. “No wonder Mr. Nacht likes them so much. Blood is thicker than water, after all. No matter how hard you try to hide the truth, the bond between true family can be concealed easily.”
Raina smiled and nodded. “That’s right. But, why is Ms. Windt hiding it?”
“Hmm… “ Ben raised his eyes to look at Zachary.
However, he wasn’t in the mood to care about anything else. He immediately took the report and rushed towards the children’s ward.
“Boo…hoo I want my mommy!”
Ellie seemed to have gotten up on the wrong side of the bed. She was whining and rubbing her eyes in bed.
Violet passed the milk that she had prepared to Ellie and comforted her. “Good girl, Ellie. Mommy will be here soon. Come and have your milk.”
Ellie then took the baby bottle over and started gulping down the milk.
Meanwhile, Mildred wheeled Jamie out from the restroom.
He just washed his face and changed into a set of Transformers clothes, looking all handsome. But, he was still yawning as he did not have enough sleep the previous night.
“Robbie, your allergy symptoms are getting much better.”
Amelia noticed that the rashes on Robbie’s body were almost gone when she was cleaning his face.
Robbie looked at himself in the mirror and made an arrangement like a grown up boy. “Mm-hmm. Indeed, it’s healing. Well, if that’s the case, how about we go home later? Oh, by the way, is Mrs. Berry in this hospital too?”
“Amelia answered gently, “Yes, but she’s in another building. Do you want to see her?”
Robbie nodded his head. “Yes, we’ll leave after seeing Mrs. Berry. Could I trouble you to make arrangements for us?”
“We’ll still have to seek advice from doctor. We can only leave if doctor tells that you’re ready for discharge.” Amelia answered with a smile.
“Alright… “ The room door was flung open abruptly when Robbie was about to speak.
Zachary walked in hurriedly. He had always been cold and indifferent. However, he looked all excited at that moment.
He took a look at Robbie, Jamie and also Ellie, as if he had an announcement to make.
The three children stared at him blankly.
Robbie widened his eyes, waiting for him to say something.
Jamie was playing with his Transformers toys before he entered the room. He couldn’t help but stopped playing because of his sudden appearance.
Ellie was leaning on a pillow, holding her stuffed alpaca in one hand and her baby bottle in the other hand. She immediately stopped drinking and stared at Zachary when he came in.
Mistaking a Magnate for a Male Escort Chapter 486
“Bad guy! Bad guy!”
Fifi talked suddenly and hid behind Robbie. Then, It looked at Zachary timidly from behind.
The three nurses were a little nervous as well. Mildred and Violet stopped their actions and stood there uneasily.
“Uncle Zack, is there anything?” Robbie politely asked.
“You can’t call me that!” Zachary said suddenly. Right after those words coming out of his mouth, he explained again immediately, “What I mean is… “
He used to be calm and all puffed-up. But all of a sudden, he started to feel nervous.
He had never felt that way before. He looked as if he was a child with no confidence and was afraid of saying the wrong thing.
It’s probably the first time Zachary felt so lost ever since he was born.
“Hmm?” Robbie furrowed his brows and stared at him in confusion.
“It’s nothing now.”
Zachary decided to tell the children when Charlotte was there. After all, he had never gotten the chance to be with the children. Instead, there were some misunderstandings between him and the children in the past.
He was afraid that if he acted rashly, he would only scare them off.
Jamie patted his chest and said, “You have scared me! I thought you want a compensation from me.”
“Compensation?” Zachary asked with his brows raised.
“Robbie said I was hugging your leg while sleeping. I even farted on you. So, I thought… “ Jamie looked at him and answered weakly.
Ellie held her baby bottle tightly and asked in a whisper. “Robbie said that I drooled all over your clothes, and your arm was numb because I slept on it. Is that true?”
The corner of Zachary’s mouth lifted up and he gently said. “Mm-hmm, but that’s ok. As long as you guys are happy.”
No matter what the children did or said, he still thought they were adorable in every way.
“I’m sorry. I’ll share my toy with you.” Jamie handed Zachary his Transformers toy and told him sincerely. “I won’t eat potatoes again, so that my farts won’t smell.”
“Haha… “ Zachary burst into laughter. However, he didn’t know how to continue with Jamie’s topic.
Since it was his first day of being a father, he didn’t know how to get along with his children.
Ellie stared at her baby bottle. She decided to give it to Zachary even though she was reluctant to do that. She gritted her teeth and handed him the bottle. “Then… I will share my milk with you too.”
“What are you going to drink if you give it to me?”
What a little darling! Zachary stared at them with the gentlest look ever on his face.
“I… I… “ Ellie blinked her big bright eyes and said pitifully. “I’ll drink juice then.”
After that, she sadly lowered her head and handed him the baby bottle reluctantly.
Her sweet and innocent look instantly melted Zachary’s heart. “That’s so sweet of you! Thanks for sharing it with me, but I don’t drink milk. You can have it!”
“Oh? Is that true?” Ellie hurriedly kept her baby bottle and held it tightly in her arms, as if Zachary would steal it away from her. “That’s what you said! I will give you hot cross bunnies next time then.”
“What are hot cross bunnies?” Zachary asked curiously.
Ellie gestured with her chubby hands and explained. “Hot cross bunny is a kind of bun, it’s very delicious! It looks like a bunny. The ones that Mrs. Berry made taste yummy! But the ones mommy made… Hmm… “
She thought about it for a moment before answering, “Well, they taste okay.”
“Sometimes she just accidentally added salt instead of sugar, so they can be very salty.” Jamie added resignedly, “But mommy’s oatmeal is nice.”
“That was instant oatmeal!” Ellie added hurriedly, “Actually, mommy’s signature dish is creamy tomato soup.”
“You’re right.”
The two of them were discussing their mother’s cooking, one after another.
Zachary listened to them attentively. His lips curled into a smile.
Robbie stared at Zachary in confusion. He felt that something was off about Zachary, but he didn’t know what it was…
That evil guy seemed to become cordial all of a sudden.
Mistaking a Magnate for a Male Escort Chapter 487
Zachary stayed with the children for a while. Then, he was ready to make a move when Ben reminded him to meet Henry at Serene Hospital.
Before he left, Robbie walked him out. He asked Zachary seriously, “Uncle Zack, do you have something to say?”
“How do you know?”
Zachary thought Robbie had an IQ and EQ that was higher than other children of the same age. Jamie and Ellie was more like three-and-a-half-year old child, while Robbie was just like him when he was young.
“I just feel that your attitude has changed suddenly,” Robbie guessed. “You’re acting totally different… “
Zachary couched down and put his hands on Robbie’s shoulders. “Let’s wait for Mommy. Mommy and I’ve got news for you guys!”
“What news?” Robbie couldn’t wait to know.
“Shh. I want to keep it as a secret for the time being.” Zachary left him in suspense.
“Is it good news or bad news?” Robbie questioned again.
Zachary gently stroked his head with the corner of his mouth lifted up. “Of course, it’s good news. You guys can move into my place after your follow-up. I’ll be back together with Mommy tonight.”
“Stay at your place?” Robbie was surprised and said hurriedly, “Is that a good idea? I think we better stay at Mr. Henry’s house.”
“You can’t address him as Mr. Henry from now on.”
Zachary would like to clarify with him that he should actually address Henry as his Great-grandpa instead of Mr. Henry. However, he didn’t want to reveal the secret at that moment.
“Why is it?” Robbie frowned out of worry.
Zachary tried to evade his question while explaining. “I’ll explain to you guys tonight. Mr. Henry is not feeling well. So, he won’t have time to take care of the three of you. Besides, it’s not quite convenient for Mommy to go there. So, I’ll make an arrangement for you guys to move over to my place. You guys can take a rest in hospital for today. I’ll get someone to prepare a room for you.”
“But… “
“Alright, it’s decided then.”
Before Robbie could say anything, Zachary stood up and instructed Raina. “I’ll leave you to take care of the decoration of their room. Use the best furniture and products. They’ll be moving in tonight.”
“Yes, Mr. Nacht. I’ll do it right away.”
Raina bowed quietly upon receiving instructions.
From now on, the three children would be the heir to the Nacht family. She would treat them with extreme care as compared to before.
Zachary then turned around and ordered his bodyguards who were standing in two orderly lines behind him. “From today onwards, the nine of you are responsible for keeping both the princes and the princess safe!”
“Yes, Mr. Nacht!” The nine bodyguards answered at the same time, with loud and clear voices echoing around the corridor.
Robbie was shocked by what was happening in front of him. W-What is going on? He is asking Dr. Langhan to decorate our room personally, and even leaving half of his bodyguards here to protect the three of us? Besides, isn’t it weird to address us as “the princes and the princess”?
“I should get going now.”
Zachary turned back to look at Robbie. He opened his mouth and wanted to call him the way Charlotte did, but he didn’t know how.
Instead, he did it in a man-to-man way. He reached out his fist to Robbie.
He was stunned for a while before reaching out his fist to do a fist-bump with Zachary.
Then, the two of them smiled at each other.
“Robinson, wait for me.”
Finally, Zachary called out his name. It wasn’t as affectionate as Charlotte, or as gentle as the others. However, it was somewhat cordial, friendly and reliable in another way.
“Okay!” Robbie nodded his head firmly. He stood up straight, looking all energetic.
Zachary patted on his head gently then turned to look at Jamie and Ellie who were hiding behind the door with an adorable expression. He waved at them and left.
“Robbie… Robbie… “ Jamie wheeled himself out and asked in excitement. “What happened? When did you become so close with him?”
“Robbie is a friend with him now?” Ellie asked softly with a pinched voice.
“Friend? Friend?” Fifi was curious as well.
Robbie looked at Zachary’s silhouette as he walked away. He felt a little emotional and said, “I noticed that we have misunderstood him before. I realized he is a good guy now!”
Mistaking a Magnate for a Male Escort Chapter 488
“Are you sure?”
Jamie turned his head to look towards Zachary, thinking about how he got him with his legs to prevent him from falling off the bed. In order not to wake Jamie up, Zachary even let him hug his legs all night long while sleeping. He had been standing in an odd and difficult pose for hours…
Therefore, Jamie couldn’t help but nod his head. “Oh, right. I think he is not bad too.”
“He didn’t complain about my saliva and let me sleep on his arm. Oh, by the way, he gave me a piggyback ride last time.” Ellie was trying to recall all the good things that Zachary did. Finally, she concluded seriously, “Alright then, I also think that he is a good guy!”
“Good guy! Good guy!”
Fifi repeated after Ellie, flapping its wings and flying around.
“So, we must be polite to him in the future. Okay?” Robbie reminded them in a serious tone.
“Understood!” Jamie and Ellie answered together.
“Mr. Robbie, Mr. Jamie and Ms. Ellie… “ Raina crouched down in front of them and smiled. “From now on, your identities have been changed.”
“What is going on?” Jamie tilted his head in confusion.
“Unless… Has Mr. Henry already bought the island?”
Ellie vaguely remembered that Mr. Henry once said to buy an island and be the king of his own island. Hence, the three of them would become real princes and princess.
“You’ll know soon.” Raina patted on their heads and said gently. “I’ll prepare a room for you guys now. Let’s get some rest in the hospital today, okay?”
“Okay!” They nodded their heads with a blur face.
Then, Raina left. The three children went back to the room and continued eating their breakfast before visiting Mrs. Berry.
The three nurses led them to another building. When they passed through the corridor, the nine bodyguards bowed their heads immediately.
The three children were shocked. They hurriedly stopped in their tracks and bowed in return timidly.
Before they walked into the elevator, two of the bodyguards quickly walked ahead of them and checked it carefully. Then, they held the elevator door for them and waited for them to go in.
The three children stared at each other with a clueless expression. They were confused, but they didn’t dare to ask.
The three nurses were cautious and anxious as compared to how they were before. They even changed the way they addressed the three of them. They used to call the three children by their nicknames. But then they started to address them as Mr. Robbie, Mr. Jamie and Ms. Ellie.
Besides, the three nurses would use both their hands when passing things to them. They wouldn’t treat them as casually as how they did before.
In the past, the three nurses would have chats and even dozed off sometimes when they were lazy. But now, they were always on standby and didn’t dare to delay at all.
That was making the three children feeling more uneasy and anxious. They had no idea what was going on.
As they stepped out of the elevator, they were shocked again.
The remaining seven bodyguards had already been waiting for them downstairs respectfully. Six of them were lining up neatly in two rows, while one of them was standing beside the car.
The three children exchanged glances. They were all terrified.
Then, Jamie came closer to Robbie, covering his mouth with his hands and whispered. “Robbie, what exactly is going on?”
Ellie hid her face behind Fifi and asked in with a very soft voice. “Did Mr. Henry really buy over an island? Are we going to be crowned? Are we really going to be real prince and princess?”
“Probably?”
Robbie looked dazed as well. He used to think that he was smart, but he was clueless on what was going on.
Anyway, the answers would be revealed that night.
“Don’t worry.” Robbie comforted Jamie and Ellie. “Mommy is going to be back soon. We will find out what is happening when she’s back.”
“Uh huh.” Jamie and Ellie nodded firmly.
“Mommy, Mommy… “
Fifi lowered down its voices while looking at those people. It looked to be a little restless and uneasy too. If the three children were to become princes and princess, did that mean it would be the royal parrot?
Fifi held its head high with pride when it thought about that.
Mistaking a Magnate for a Male Escort Chapter 489
The entire group made their way towards the Neurological ward.
The medical superintendent welcomed them personally, and even bowed to the three children, he then politely led them to Mrs. Berry’s ward.
A few medical specialists were already there and waited for their orders at any time.
Jamie was nervous, clenching the armrests of his wheelchair silently with both his hands.
Meanwhile, Ellie was hugging Fifi tightly that she nearly strangled it to death.
Fortunately, Robbie was able to remain his calmness and said, “Thanks for your hard work, doctors. We are just here to visit Mrs. Berry. We don’t know anything about the treatment. I believe Mommy will consult you guys when she’s back. Please continue with your work. Don’t worry about us.”
“Well…” They looked at the medical superintendent.
“Well, we will be waiting outside then. Please let us know if Mr. Robbie, Mr. Jamie and Ms. Ellie need anything.” The medical superintendent said cautiously.
“There’s no need.” Robbie bowed gratefully. “All of you have been working hard. There are other patients in the hospital who need you to tend to them. So, you really don’t have to waste your time here.”
The medical superintendent and the other specialists were slightly stunned. However, they responded politely and left immediately.
After watching them leave, Robbie told the bodyguards, “Could you wait for us outside? Please don’t disturb Mrs. Berry’s rest time. Thank you!”
“Yes, sir!” The nine bodyguards bowed and left the room.
Robbie then glanced at the other four subordinates. They immediately bowed and left as well.
There were only Amelia, Mildred, Violet in the room, and also Mrs. Berry with a total puzzled look.
Mrs. Berry had been gaping at those people in utter shock for more than ten minutes. She didn’t say a single word, but they could see a thousand questions in her eyes.
Jamie and Ellie let out a sign at the same time.
“Mrs. Berry!” Ellie struggled to crawl into the bed with her short legs. She jumped into her embrace and said affectionately. “Are you alright? I haven’t seen you for a long time. I missed you so much!”
“Good girl, Ellie.” I miss you too!” Mrs. Berry hugged and kissed her head. She then turned to ask Robbie and Jamie. “Who can tell me what is going on?”
“Hmm… I don’t know either.”
Mildred wheeled Jamie over to the bedside as he spoke.
Jamie furrowed his brows and pulled a long face. “That old man treated us well all of a sudden. He told many people to take care of us. Everybody is so kind to us. I’m a little… hmm… I’m flattered!”
“Old man?” Mrs. Berry frowned as she tried to guess who he was referring to.
Jamie added, “Mommy’s former boss. The bad guy with a fierce look on his face!”
“Bad guy! Bad guy!”
Fifi followed along and instantly recoiled as if it said something wrong.
“Jamie, what did I tell you before?” Robbie put on a solemn look and reminded him in a serious tone.
Jamie immediately shook his head and corrected himself. “Oh, no! He is not a bad guy. He is so kind to us now. Last night, he even tugged me and Ellie in bed.”
“Uh… “ Mrs. Berry didn’t understand a word. She had no choice but to gaze at Robbie with a pleading look in her eyes.
“Mrs. Berry, I can’t explain to you right now.” Robbie shrugged and answered resignedly. “We’ll let Mommy explain to you when she’s back.”
Mrs. Berry asked anxiously, “Where did Mommy go? I heard that the elevator in the residential estate has broken down a few days ago. Her friend was nearly stuck in the elevator when she went to our place. The property manager sent your Mommy here to receive treatment and dropped by to see me as well. I wanted to go see your mother but she had left. Later on, I tried calling her but I couldn’t get through. I’m so worried about her!”
“Don’t worry! Mommy will be back tonight.” Robbie assured her.
Mistaking a Magnate for a Male Escort Chapter 490
On the other side, Zachary was still feeling emotional while looking at the DNA test report.
He felt like he was dreaming for receiving such great surprise all of a sudden.
In fact, God was so generous to him. He had been given all the best things in the world.
The three children were like angels coming to his life…
However, he hated himself for not taking the DNA test right away when he learned about the existence of the three children. Instead, he even doubted that the children weren’t his… I am a bloody fool!
Thinking about that, Charlotte must have been extremely sad and disappointed…
She was probably hiding the truth because she was scared.
Zachary was so regretful when he thought about the time when he punished Charlotte in a violent and harsh way..
Stupid Woman, why don’t you tell me?
He swore to himself that he would do everything he could to make it up to her in the future. He wouldn’t ever let her suffer anymore…
Ben couldn’t help but heave a sigh of relief. “I can’t believe things could take a turn at this point. You don’t have to worry about anything now. No matter what Ms. Nacht is up to, she can’t deny the existence of these three children. You have not only one but three heirs to the family now. Nobody can threaten your position!”
“It doesn’t matter.”
Zachary wasn’t happy because of the three children could help him maintain his position in the family. He was delighted because they were his flesh and blood!
He was even upset about that in the past. He had finally come to the realization that it was actually a misunderstanding.
“Of course. Most importantly, Ms. Windt has never betrayed you.” Ben certainly knew what was on Zachary’s mind.
Zachary ordered, “Send more men to guard the hospital so that Zara won’t have the chance to play any tricks.”
“Yes, Mr. Nacht!”
Their car soon arrived at the entrance of Serene Hospital as they spoke.
Spencer didn’t wait for them as promised. Instead, he sent somebody over.
“What happened? Has Mr. Nacht’s condition worsened?” Ben asked anxiously.
“No. It’s Mr. Blackwood. He came by to visit Mr. Nacht.” the bodyguard answered. “Mr. Spencer greeted him personally. That’s why he sent me here.”
“Mr. Blackwood came alone?” Zachary frowned and asked.
“He came along with Ms. Blackwood. But, Mr. Spencer rejected to meet her as per your instruction. So, he only let Mr. Blackwood in,” the bodyguard said cautiously.
“Alright.” Zachary nodded in satisfaction.
“Don’t worry. Spencer is always cautious and efficient. He makes no mistakes,” Ben assured him.
Zachary quickened his pace. He held the test report tightly in his hands, with a happy glow in his eyes. He couldn’t wait to let Henry know about the good news.
The three children whom he loved the most were actually his great-grandchild.
Zachary couldn’t imagine how happy Henry was going to be when he heard that.
As soon as they arrived at the ward, Spencer was about to send Taylor off. He greeted Zachary when they met, “Zachary, you’re here.”
“Yes.” Zachary nodded in response, “Thanks for coming by to visit Grandpa!”
“We’re family. It’s what I should do.” Taylor blurted out those words without any hesitation. He then added, “I’m your father’s best friend, as well as Mr. Nacht’s close friend. Based on our relationship, we are more or less a family.”
“Yes. Thank you.” Zachary smiled, “After Grandpa recovers, I’ll visit you in person to thank you.”
In fact, he was going to visit him and break off the engagement.
“It’s fine.” Taylor smiled and said, “I shall get going.”
“I hope you are ok with walking yourself out.” Zachary nodded politely.
Taylor left quietly. He stopped and turned back to him after walking a few steps. “Zachary, do you know Richard Windt?”
Zachary stopped himself from stepping into the ward and stared at him with a puzzled expression. “Huh?”
“I’m not sure if I should be telling you this… “ Taylor seemed to be in a difficult position. He wanted to say something but hesitated, “With regards to Ms. Windt, she… “
