Chapter 1305 The Last Hope
“We didn’t want to disturb you since you were all asleep when we got home,” Lupine explained with a grin. “Let’s go downstairs. Let your Mommy get some rest.”
“Okay!” All five children formed a line and marched downstairs with Lupine.
After a sneeze, Robbie, too, went downstairs with the other children while holding a book he planned to read in the car later.
“The breakfast’s ready!” Morgan came out of the kitchen with an apron on as she was in charge of the breakfast today.
She greeted the children with a smile. “I made you your favorite breakfast today!”
“You know how to make breakfast?” Ellie tilted her head aside and asked, “I’m pretty sure Mr. Marino helped you with it.”
“Quite some time ago, Marino secretly asked Mrs. Rawlston to teach him cooking. He must have learned a skill or two and taught Ms. Morgan how to cook,” Jamie revealed.
“Stop it, you two.” Morgan blushed.
The children burst into laughter.
“It doesn’t matter whether you or your boyfriend made this. We’ll take it as you’re the one who prepared the breakfast for us,” Alpha said cheekily. “When can we eat? I’m hungry!”
“I’ll bring them over. Just give me a minute!” Morgan then signaled Jade and Emma to help carry all the dishes to the dining table.
Meanwhile, Charlotte had woken up from her sleep and was freshening up. She wanted to bring the children over to Dr. Felch’s as soon as possible.
In the meantime, Zachary and Ben had arrived at Dr. Felch’s residence.
Hayley served the breakfast she made on the wooden table in the courtyard and decorated the site with vases filled with the tiny yellow flowers she picked this morning.
As the car approached, Hayley put aside her work and was ready to welcome Charlotte to the villa. But the moment she saw Zachary, her smile vanished right away. Nonetheless, she still greeted him with respect, “Good morning, Mr. Nacht.”
“Hi.” Zachary came over on Dr. Felch’s instruction.
In fact, Zachary spent the entire night yesterday at Sultry Night, and he only went home and took a shower before coming. He looked a little worn out as he stayed up the whole night.
“Come on in.” Hayley welcomed Zachary and Ben.
Bruce and his men were stationed here for a night, but they parked their car far away to avoid disturbing Dr. Felch.
“Dr. Felch will join us for breakfast once he’s ready,” Hayley said while setting up the table.
All of a sudden, a loud thud emerged from the villa.
Zachary and Ben dashed into the house without any hesitation.
“Oh, no!” Hayley, too, followed them from behind.
When Sam was helping Dr. Felch to get out of his bed, the latter fell and hit the basin as his legs turned weak.
Sam tried to carry Dr. Felch but to no avail.
A pair of muscular arms appeared and put Dr. Felch back in his wheelchair.
Sam tilted his head and noticed it was Zachary. “Mr. Nacht…”
“Are you all right?” Zachary squatted in front of Dr. Felch and asked.
“I’m fine…” Dr. Felch replied in a deep frail voice. It took him a few seconds to open his eyes to take a look at Zachary.
His dry lips quivered as if he had something to say, but at that point, he could hardly utter a word.
“Yes, Dr. Felch?” Tears welled up in Hayley’s eyes as she tried to understand what he was trying to express. “All right. I’ll give Charlotte a call right now.”
She then turned to Sam and said, “Call Charlotte and get her to come as soon as possible. Dr. Felch can’t hold it any longer.”
“Okay. Got it.” Sam immediately looked for his phone.
“I’ll do it.” Zachary then instructed Ben to make the call instead.
