Chapter 563


    Charlotte held the phone in her hand. She was dizzy with disappointment.


    She triedforting herself in her heart. Perhaps Zachary feels that since the old man has just woken


    up, it''ll be better not to rile thetter up too soon...


    Charlotte pitifullyforted herself.


    An elongated Rolls-Royce made its way to the hospital, escorted by two rows of convoys in front and at


    the back - truly a sight to behold.


    The bodyguards deployed were all vignt, checking and scanning around to spot any untoward


    surprise ambushes.


    Nheless, everything went on without a hitch as the journey itself was smooth.


    As the cars drove up to the hospital, Zachary led the three children out of their ride. Jamie, whose foot


    had not fully healed, was sitting on his shoulders. He held the hands of the other two: Robbie and Ellie.


    Jamie was feeling ted, with a special sense of superiority seated on his father''s broad shoulders.


    Fifi was perched meanwhile on Jamie''s head, its eyes opened wide, gawking around curiously.


    "Daddy, I don''t want to hold your hand anymore." Breaking away from Zachary''s hand, Ellie childishly


    "Truthfully, I''m tired too." Looking up to Zachary, Robbie blinked and asked innocently, "I''ll be as tall


    as Daddy in the future, won''t I?"


    "Of course you will." Bending down, Zachary heaved up both Robbie and Ellie in his arms while


    carefully making sure Jamie was securely seated on his shoulders. "Hang tight, Jamie."


    "Okie." Jamie held onto Zachary''s head for fear of falling.


    "Yay! I''m high up now too!" Ellie cheered, pping her little hands together.


    "Suddenly I feel like my visual field has expanded," Robbie mused, smiling.


    "I''m higher up than you still." Jamie raised his brows, proudly showing off.


    "I''m higher! I''m higher!" Fifi squawked exuberantly, pping its wings in response as if it understood the


    whole childishpetition.


    "Shush!" Ellie pointed to Fifi with her chubby small hand, pouted her mouth, and yfully scowled, "Fifi,


    if you squawk again, I''m going to pull off your feathers!"


    The intelligent bird quickly covered its mouth with its wings and dared not make any more noises. Its


    eyes were rolling around, making it looked both funny and adorable.

    "Hahaha..." The three children filled the air with theirughter simultaneously.


    Zachary could not help but grin. Since these three children had appeared in his life, his world had been


    filled with nothing butughter and joy. He had also been slowly changed into a more cheerful person


    who tended to smile more.


    "These kids are so adorable!" Bruce remarked with a satisfied sigh. "Everything has been a little


    different since Mr. Nacht has be a father.


    He''s a changed man."


    "Agreed. A change for the better. A more humane person overall," Ben whispered.


    Bruceughed, "Yeah. Way better."


    As the entourage entered the hospital from the side door, they were greeted by the dean and heads-of-


    departments all lined up ready and waiting. They lined and led them directly to the special ward.


    Spencer, who had been waiting downstairs all the while, was d to see Zachary. He promptly greeted


    thetter and informed excitedly, "Mr.


    Zachary, Mr. Henry has awakened and has been thinking about you."


    "Noted," Zachary nodded before asking, "You haven''t told him anything, have you?"


    "No, definitely not. I''ll leave you to tell him personally, as per your instruction."


    Gazing at the children one by one, Spencer smiled giddily, allowing himself a brief moment to show his


    true feeling. After that, his face tightened as he hinted meaningfully, "Mr. Zachary, since Mr. Henry has


    just woken up, please be mindful that he can''t handle any bad stimulus yet!"


    The meaning was clear as day: double down on the good news, avoid the bad ones.


    Zachary instinctively understood what Spencer meant and assured thetter, "Fret not. I''ll be tactful!"


    The whole family soon arrived outside the special ward. Zachary took the children to the


    decontamination chamber for a change of clothes. Fifi intended to follow but was prevented by Zachary


    who tapped its beak and ordered, "Stay


    outside. Don''t cause a ruckus.”


    Stopping what it was about to do, Fifi immediatelynded on Ben''s shoulder. It looked aggrieved as it


    shrugged its little head.


    "Make sure you don''t poop on my shoulder," Ben threatened, giving Fifi a vicious look, "Or else I will


    pluck out your feathers one by one..."


    "Daddy, Daddy."


    Before Ben could finish his sentence, Fifi flew over to Zachary andined, "Pluck feather, pluck


    feather. Scared. Scared..."
