Chapter 428
“Mrs. Berry, Mommy brewed you lentil soup,” Jamie placed the thermal flask on the table and said
casually, “Mommy's cooking skills have really improved ever since you're warded. This soup smells so
good but she wouldn't allow us to have a taste, and insisted to keep it all for you!”
Mrs. Berry chuckled aloud. “Miss, have you really improved your cooking?”
“Oh, yes I have.” Charlotte shifted in unease. “I'll be sure to cook for you every day once you're good to
go home.”
“That's great...” Mrs. Berry heaved a sigh of relief and smiled. “You're going to be able to take good
care of yourself and the kids when I'm gone.”
“Nonsense!” Charlotte's eyes brimmed with tears. “How could you say that? Your condition is nothing
serious and you'll recover in no time.”
“Mrs. Berry...” Robbie cradled her hands, his voice getting croaky, “You will always be around, always.”
“Yes, Mrs. Berry. You're going to live a long and healthy life.”

“Mrs. Berry, you have to watch me get married.”
Jamie's eyes were also brimming with tears but he cracked a joke in an attempt to lighten the
atmosphere.
“Married! Married!” Fifi flapped its wings and chirped.
“Haha! That's right... I have to watch my three babies get married and be happy!”
Mrs. Berry smiled as she hugged the triplets one by one.
Every single one of them was her precious little baby.
She earnestly wished for speedy recovery so that she could go back and take care of the triplets.
Fifi flew to her side and rubbed its furry little head against Mrs. Berry's face. It was as if it was using its
own way to comfort her.
Tears streamed down Mrs. Berry's cheeks but she wiped it away in a swift motion. She put on smile
and said, “The tears just come when you're old like I am... I've promised not to cry but I just can't help it
when I see you guys...”
“We will come to visit you more often,” Charlotte said as she wiped away the tears on Mrs. Berry's face.
“A lot of things happened recently. Plus, Jamie is undergoing treatment. We really haven't been
spending much time with you.”
“Mrs. Berry, we promise to come visit you after school in the future,” Robbie hurriedly said. “I'll bring
you an iPad so that you can send us videos when we're not around.”
“Yes, that's right.” Jamie rolled his wheelchair closer. “Mrs. Berry, I will bring you your favorite green
pea tartlets next time I come to visit you.”
Raising her little chubby hand, Ellie chimed in, “I'll bring my little pink comb and wash your hair.”
“Alright, my good babies.” Mrs. Berry hugged the triplets and grinned from ear to ear.
Charlotte was overwhelmed by feelings at the heartwarming sight. She wished that Mrs. Berry would
recover soon and that they could live together as a family like they used to.
“Ms. Windt!”

Charlotte by the door.
She followed Raina out into the hallway. Raina explained Mrs. Berry's condition to her. Fortunately, her
condition was looking good because she had received proper treatment in time.
However, the treatment was a long journey, and the results would not be immediate. Even after Mrs.
Berry had been discharged, she would have to come back for appointments every now and then.
Charlotte then hurriedly told Raina that she would spare no expense for the treatment. As long as Mrs.
Berry could fully recover, it did not matter how much time or money it would take.
Then, she mentioned that she had brought along fifty thousand to pay for the hospital bills, and that the
rest of the bill will be paid for by the end of the month.
Raina was stumped. “What hospital bills? I've signed for all invoices involved for Mrs. Berry's treatment.
No bill should ever be issued to you. Did someone ask you to foot the bill?”
“No, you shouldn't sign the invoice. I will pay for any expenses incurred for the treatment. You're not
supposed to bear all the expenses involved. Please don't reprimand your subordinates as I insisted on
doing so. Otherwise, I really cannot bear to trouble you further.”
