“Daddy, what’s wrong?” Jamie was concerned when he saw Zachary’s expression. “Are you worried about Robbie and Ellie? And also the fact that Mommy will marry someone else?”
“Both.” Zachary had no qualms about discussing such issues with his son. “But don’t worry, I’ll think of a way to solve it.”
“You don’t have to worry too. Robbie already has a plan,” Jamie remarked smugly. “At the very least, Mommy won’t get married within two months.”
“Hmm?” Zachary’s face lit up. “What plan?”
“I’ll let Robbie tell you himself in the evening,” Jamie replied with a mysterious tone. “After all, it’s not in place yet. So, there’s no point in talking about it.”
“You cheeky rascal. How dare you keep me in suspense.” Zachary gently slapped the top of his head.
“Hehe.”
Meanwhile, in Xendale, Erihal.
Due to the heavy snow, the entire city looked as if it was blanketed with a large white sheet.
Lupine instructed the maids to put on the tailored down jackets for Robbie and Ellie. The gear they wore included military boots for children.
At the same time, Charlotte had put on a long white jacket and hat that kept her warm and snug underneath. With her non-slip military boots, she looked extremely domineering standing by the escalator.
As she held the two children’s hand while going down the staircase, she was followed by Lupine, Morgan, and eighteen other female bodyguards.
When the children saw what awaited them, they were filled with a sense of novelty and curiosity.
Looking ahead with a steady expression, Robbie quickly caught Robert’s eye.
Robert muttered softly to Louis, “No wonder Mr. Lindberg likes the children. They have the air of kings.”
“The three of them are adorable and also special in their own way,” Louis replied with a chuckle before warmly greeting his guests in Chanaean, “Charlotte, Robbie, Ellie!”
“Hi, Sir Louis.”
The two children greeted Louis politely. After that, Robbie politely reminded, “Sir Louis, we appreciate you waiting here for us. However, there is something I need to discuss with you.”
“Oh? What is it?”
Louis was curious about what Robbie had to say. He even knelt down to Robbie’s height so that they could see each other at eye level.
“Only my parents call me that. Perhaps, you can be more formal next time.” Robbie spoke frankly.
Louis was awkwardly stunned but quickly recovered his composure and smiled. “All right, I’ll keep that in mind.”
“Excuse me.” Robbie lowered his head with a bow to demonstrate his respect.
“It’s all right. I have overstepped my boundaries. You made the right decision being forthright about it.” Smiling, Louis reached out his hand. “Let us shake hands then!”
Robbie shook his hand with a smile. Although he hoped that Charlotte didn’t marry Louis, he didn’t dislike him at all. In fact, he felt Louis was a sincere and principled man.
“Let us shake too.”
Ellie extended her hand and shook hands with Louis.
Then, both of them smiled at each other.
When Charlotte saw that the children didn’t resent Louis, a smile of relief broke out on her face. At least they can interact with each other without incident.
Soon, she collected her thoughts and bowed at Robert respectfully. “Sir Robert, sorry to have kept you waiting.”
“We happened to arrive earlier, that’s all.” Robert looked at her with a smile. “You seemed to have lost weight. H City’s climate doesn’t agree with you. It seems Xendale is where you belong.”
Behind the simple comment was an implicit message.
“Yes.” Charlotte nodded cordially before calling for her children. “Robbie, Ellie, greet Sir Robert.”
“Hello, Sir Robert,” Robbie and Ellie greeted politely.
“Hello to you too.” Robert looked at the children. “They do have the air of the Lindbergs.”
The moment he heard the comment, Robbie shot a glance at Robert and furrowed his eyebrows in response.
However, Ellie had a blank look on her face as she didn’t realize the meaning behind the words.
“Get in the car, Danrique is waiting for you at home.”
“All right, Sir Robert. After you.”
