Chapter 1510 Sending The Little Devils Away
“Daddy…” Jamie choked up. “It’s all my fault for always being naughty. I’ve caused you to worry all this while. From now on, I will behave and take care of them. You have to focus on recuperating. I’m sure you will recover.”
There was a minute change in Zachary’s gaze when he heard those words.
The triplets felt even more guilty. Hanging their heads, they apologized to him one by one. “We’re sorry, Uncle Zachary. You’re both sick and injured. We shouldn’t have bothered you.”
“Mmm-hmm. We are in the wrong and won’t do it again.”
“Let’s play the horse-riding game when you’ve fully recovered.”
“Uncle Zachary, don’t be angry. We won’t tell Aunt Charlotte about it.”
“I won’t get Daddy to beat you too.”
While the three children expressed their remorse, Robbie watched on with mixed emotions.
Zachary chuckled as he stroked their heads. Although he wanted to say something, he was unsure of what he should say.
“All right now, Jamie, Alpha, Beta, Gamma, it’s time for us to go. Let’s not disrupt Daddy’s rest.” Robbie finally stepped in to defuse the situation. “Daddy is sick and needs some peace.”
“Okay.” Jamie quickly let Zachary go and carefully stood back. “Daddy, you should rest well. I will look after them, and they won’t bother you again.”
“We don’t need you to watch over us. We’re good kids!” the triplets protested.
“Uh…”
“Kids!” At that moment, Morgan shouted from outside, “Mr. Spencer is here to pick you up, so come out right now.”
“Why is Mr. Spencer here for us?”
The triplets ran out at once.
“He’s taking all of you over to his place so that Mr. Nacht can rest well at home,” Morgan explained with a smile. “I have already packed your stuff. Come, let’s grab a quick bite before leaving.”
“Is Robbie and Jamie going with us too?”
“We are,” Robbie answered. He then turned to Zachary. “Daddy, we’re staying over at Mr. Spencer’s for a few days. You should have a good rest at home.”
“Sure, you kids have fun.”
Zachary wanted nothing more than that. In fact, he could barely hide his delight.
“Daddy, don’t worry about us. We’ll be back in a couple of days,” Jamie said, reluctant to leave.
“You should stay a few more—” Zachary blurted but quickly rephrased his sentence. “Spend more time with Mr. Spencer.”
“Mmm-hmm. Bye, Daddy!”
“Bye!”
“Bye, Uncle Zachary!”
“Bye!”
After waving goodbye to Zachary, the children followed Morgan downstairs for their snacks.
At the same time, Jade and the others brought the five children’s baggage downstairs and loaded them in the trunk.
Standing in the corridor on the second floor, Zachary watched the children leave before letting out a long sigh.
“Mr. Zachary!”
At that moment, Spencer was wheeled upstairs by his subordinate. Filled with concern, he reassured Zachary, “With the kids at my place, you can get some proper rest and enjoy some privacy with Ms. Lindberg. She has been working very hard lately, so you should spend more time with her.”
“That goes without saying.” Zachary was elated. “Thank you, Mr. Spencer.”
“Don’t mention it, Mr. Zachary. As for the company—”
“Let’s talk about that tomorrow instead. I’m tired, so I’m heading inside to rest.”
“Okay, rest well then.”
Spencer found it strange that Zachary seemed to be avoiding the topic.
That’s odd… Zachary used to always care about the company. Even if the sky’s falling, he’d still prioritize work. Yet, it doesn’t seem like he wants to deal with it at all. But then again, he’s sick and has just survived a fire. Having escaped from the jaws of death, he probably just wants some peace and quiet, which is understandable.
Instead of delving deeper into the matter, Spencer left with the children. Before doing so, he exhorted Hanna and Bruce to take good care of Zachary.
