Chapter 277

When James saw Carlisle come out, he respectfully called out, "Mr. Zachman."

Carlisle paused for a moment before turning around and glancing at Katrina. He didn't say anything but then turned to James and ordered, "Take good care of Mrs. Zachman. I'll come by in the morning to have breakfast with her.

"Have the maids prepare more of her favorite foods. If Mrs. Zachman needs anything, inform me immediately."

"Yes, Mr. Zachman," James replied.

Carlisle averted his gaze and walked past James, heading downstairs to leave.

"Carlisle, wait!" Katrina called out, trying to follow him, but James stepped in her way.

"Mrs. Zachman, Mr. Zachman asked that you stay here and rest. If you need anything, feel free to ask the housekeepers, and they'll bring it to you," James said calmly, pretending not to notice the urgency on Katrina's face.

Katrina wanted to tell him to move, but seeing James' firm stance, she knew it was futile.
