In fact, Charlotte knew that the children wanted to go back because they were terrified of Danrique.
She decided to take the children out for a meal to give them a chance to be away from Danrique for a little while.
Before leaving the house, Charlotte asked Raina, “Based on their current condition, is it alright for them to leave
the house?”
“Yes. The fever has subsided. Well, since they can’t sleep, it will be good for them to get some fresh air.”
Raina wanted to leave here as soon as possible too. Otherwise, she would always feel that something was bothering
her.
“That’s great.”
Charlotte arranged for an extended Rolls-Royce to ferry her children with two jeeps trailing behind them.
However, as the children sat in the extended Rolls-Royce, their eyes were wide as saucers, and they looked
mortified.
Fifi, the eagle, was perching on the car seat headrest, and it was staring icily at the little parrot opposite of it.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLittle Fifi trembled in fear as it perched on the car seat. It lifted its head and looked at the eagle with eyes filled with
fear. It was quivering incessantly, and some of its green feathers had fallen on the seat.
Ellie pouted and watched the eagle with tears in her eyes. She reached out to tug at Charlotte’s sleeve and said
with a choke, “I feel like crying, Mommy.”
“You don’t have to be afraid. It already knows that you are its little master. It won’t hurt you.”
This might seem like overkill, but Charlotte had learned a lesson yesterday. She didn’t want to bump into Zara
again.
As for the eagle, she wanted it to spend more time with the children to build a closer bond. She hoped that the
eagle would protect the children if the situation arose.
Just like now, Robbie had warmed up to it and mustered the courage to sit next to the eagle.
“Scoot over.”
Robbie sat next to the eagle, and he used his arm to nudge it.
With a proud and stern look, the eagle moved to the side. Then, it shook its wings, and one of its feathers landed on
Robbie’s head.
Robbie did not notice that as he was engrossed in his iPad.
The eagle perched behind him and craned its neck as it stared at his iPad with unblinking eyes.
“Wow! I found out that an eagle can keep its eyes open without blinking for a long time.”
Jamie was a little excited and curious as well. He wanted to get closer to observe the eagle up close, but he was a
little afraid.
“It’s okay. You don’t have to be afraid. Come and touch it.”
Charlotte stroked the eagle’s wings and explained to Jamie.
“Eagles are blessed with astounding vision. They can see objects that are far away, and they don’t blink that often.
Moreover, they have the longest lifespan among the birds in the world.”
At that moment, the eagle began to coo all of a sudden.
The three children were stunned for a second before they broke into a fit of giggles.
“So that’s how an eagle calls. It sounded like a small bird.” Ellie was in tears from laughing so hard. “It’s so cute!”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Suddenly, it doesn’t seem so scary anymore,” Jamie said with a chuckle.
The eagle cooed again.
There was a frown on Robbie’s face. Even though he was still fixated on the iPad, he could feel the eagle’s gaze
from behind him.
“What’s the eagle’s lifespan, Mommy?”
Finally, Jamie mustered enough courage and went over to touch the eagle’s wings. But he quickly retracted his
hand after that.
“This is the Goshawk species, and it can live up to forty to fifty years,” Charlotte said with a smile. “There are some
eagles that can live up to seventy years old, but they begin to age by the time they are forty years old.”
“How about Little Fifi?” Ellie asked. “How long can it live?”
“Seven years,” Charlotte blurted.
“Ah…” Ellie’s eyes widened in astonishment. Suddenly, she looked worried and asked, “Little Fifi is almost six years
old now. Does that mean…?”
“Little Fifi grew up with us, so it should live longer than the parrots in the wild. You don’t have to worry about that,”
Robbie immediately reassured Ellie.
