Mistaking a Magnate for a Male Escort chapter 1433
“Haha…” Zachary guffawed at her remark. “Fine, I won’t tease you. Hurry up and eat something now, okay?”
“Yup, I’ll cook dinner tonight and wait for your return,” Charlotte said under her breath.
“Nice!” His heart was full.
All that he longed for these days was to see the entire family gathering for meals, supporting and caring for one another.
After hanging up, Charlotte was still reminiscing about the sweet and wonderful feeling. She regretted not letting go of her past sooner in order to embrace all the positivity she now received.
Sometimes, we were the ones to put the shackles on and constrain ourselves. We will learn and grow from experiences.
After breakfast, Charlotte went downstairs to prepare some ingredients to make the dishes that she was familiar with. She also prepared to bring the kids over to have a meal together.
Hanna and a few maids assisted her in the kitchen. The ladies seemed to have fun cooking.
In the evening, the house was bustling with life when the children showed up.
The bodyguards and maids were super happy to see the kids. They even prepared snacks and juices for them in advance.
Charlotte spent some time chatting with the trio and realized that they took the eagle to school and scared the living daylights out of their teacher.
It made Charlotte laugh boisterously. Nonetheless, she did not forget to reprimand the kids, “Alpha, Beta, and Gamma, do you remember what you’ve promised me? You’re not supposed to bring Fifi to school. We need to be considerate. Your teachers and classmates might not have seen an eagle before. That’s why they were frightened to see such a bird.”
The children sighed in unison.
Feeling wronged, Alpha pouted. “I told my friends yesterday that we have an eagle at home. I did ask if they wanted to see it, to which the whole class responded enthusiastically. That’s why I brought Fifi to school.”
“That’s right. A few of our classmates even indicated that we’re telling lies if we don’t bring the eagle to school.” Beta frowned and continued angrily, “That’s the reason why we brought it to school to show it to them.”
“Yes, that’s true.” Gamma nodded. “Mommy says that we ought to be trustworthy, and we did exactly that!”
Charlotte struggled to come up with an appropriate response. Well, the kids do have a point. It’s just that…
“Who knew that the teacher was a coward and fainted on the spot,” Alpha complained with a disdainful look on his face. “And so did a few kids in the class. In fact, those were the ones who taunted us the loudest!”
Beta nodded firmly. “Exactly!”
“Here you go, that’s what happened. We didn’t tell lies.” Gamma exclaimed in delight, “We are good children!”
Upon hearing that, Charlotte did not know what to do with them. Before she could say anything, Ellie came out from the bathroom and lectured them with a straight face, “Alpha, Beta, and Gamma, what did I tell you when we were on the way here?”
“We…” The three kids exchanged glances with one another. They stuck out their tongues but kept quiet.
“It’s good to keep your promise. However, we must be mindful of the situation.” Ellie gave them a piece of her mind, “For example, if a thief or a bad guy leads you to do something nasty, and you happened to say yes. Do you think you should still help him?”
A brief reprimand caused the kids to be stumped.
“We must first weigh the consequences and find out if it’s the right thing to do before we act, right?” Ellie went on.
“But it’s not a bad thing to bring Fifi to school, is it?” Alpha raised her hand and asked softly.
“Aunt Charlotte has addressed that just now.” Ellie explained again patiently, “Regular people have never seen an eagle in real life, so they are bound to get scared when they actually see one. That’s why a few of your teachers and classmates fainted on the spot. Don’t you feel bad upon seeing what your action has caused them?”
“Yes…” The three children said in unison.
