Chapter 324


    "Mr. Nacht is just brutal with words," Raina said, sighing. "He could have just told you that he''s going to


    find your kids..."


    "Really?" Charlotte said, still not entirely convinced. "Is he really that nice?"


    "He found you lying unconscious on your apartment floorst night, and he rushed you to the hospital


    immediately. He stayed by your side the whole night when you were asleep. Don''t you remember all


    that?" Raina asked, a little annoyed at how dense Charlotte could be.


    Charlotte nced at the sofa-Zachary''s zer, the Nacht family''s exclusive wine sses, and the


    unfinished pastries and fruits sitting on the table. She recalled how he had held her hand and spoke to


    her in a soothing voice when she woke up screaming and crying for her kids.


    She recalled how he had hesitated instead of outright rejecting her when she begged him to help her


    find her kids, and how he had only lost his temper when Michael appeared out of nowhere.


    Maybe, just maybe...


    "He loves you, Ms. Windt," Raina said with a sigh. "Even I can see it. He''s hot-tempered and stubborn,


    but he''s a simple man with a pure heart. Things wouldn''t have turned out like this if you treated him


    with equally pure intentions."


    Charlotte nodded absentmindedly. "I''ll be eternally indebted to him if he leaves my family alone and


    helps me find my kids."


    "I''m sure Ben will find them soon enough," Raina said as she picked up some bandages from the cart


    she pushed in. "Please lie down, Ms. Windt. I need to change your bandages. Your family needs you,


    so you must do as I say and take some time

    to recover."


    "Thanks..." Charlotte said, mbering onto the bed obediently.


    Raina left after she helped Charlotte change her bandages, and the paramedics came in just moments


    After breakfast, Charlotte groped around for her phone to give Mrs. Berry a call, but she could not find it


    no matter where she looked. Sighing, she borrowed a nurse''s phone and dialed Mrs. Berry''s number


    from memory.


    The first thing Mrs. Berry did was to fuss over her the moment the call went through, and she only


    calmed down when Charlotte confirmed that she was fine.


    When Charlotte found out that Mrs. Berry was staying in a ward just upstairs, she heaved a huge sigh


    of relief. Looks like Zachary kept his promise and left her alone!


    "The kids will be going home soon, Mrs. Berry," she said. "You need to rest and recover."


    "And you need to be careful of that devil!" Mrs. Berry added anxiously.


    Charlotte grimaced. She had always kept Mrs. Berry and the kids out of the drama with Zachary, but


    her knowledge of the kids'' disappearance came as a surprise.


    Upon realizing the kids were missing, Mrs. Berry called Michael—who saw Zachary as an enemy— for


    help and this led to the massive showdown that morning.


    Things were getting out of hand, and Charlotte feared another confrontation between Mrs. Berry and


    Zachary.


    If Mrs. Berry lost control and tried to use Zachary of kidnapping the kids again, the consequences


    would be terrible, to say the least.


    Charlotte decided to have a chat with Mrs. Berry after the kids were found.


    "Hey! What''s wrong with this little parrot?" a paramedic asked all of a sudden as she picked up an


    unconscious Fifi.


    Charlotte rushed over to take a look, and she panicked when she noticed how Fifi had not moved an


    inch despite all the noise. She patted Fifi''s body gently and called her name several times, only to


    receive no reply.


    "Is it dead?" a nurse asked before covering her mouth in regret.


    Charlotte panicked and picked Fifi up gently. She managed to find a pulse, but it was weak and almost


    nonexistent.
