Chapter 317

The old Mr. Nacht took his leave only after the three kids were tucked in for the night, and he made it a point to remind Mr. Hooters to take care of them to the best of his and his team's abilities.

They were not his grandchildren, yet that did not stop him from treating them as such.

Mr. Hooters nodded profusely as he spoke, “Yes, Mr. Nacht! I'll personally attend to that!”

Ellie fell asleep after the old man left, and Robbie took this chance to clamber out of his cot and gently pat the shoulder of the nurse that had been taking care of them. “Sorry Miss, may I borrow your phone?”

Fearing that he might wake his siblings up, he hid in the bathroom and dialed Mrs. Berry's number, only to be met with a robotic voice telling him that Mrs. Berry's phone was turned off.

Sighing, he proceeded to call his mother, but no one picked up the phone.
