Chapter 927

“Don’t say that… I’ve watched Ellie grow up, so she’s like family to me. There’s no way I’d just sit by
when something like this happens to her. Besides, being a doctor is like being a parent, so I was just
doing my job!” Cynthia signed.

“Yeah, that’s right! A doctor is just like a parent!” Taylor chimed in as well, placing extra emphasis on the
word “parent” to remind Zachary that Cynthia treated Ellie like her own daughter.

“A ward has been prepared for you, so go ahead and get some rest. Thank you very much, Ms.
Blackwood,” Ben said.

“Don’t mention it!” Taylor replied with a smile.

I feel like there’s something off about all this, but I can’t seem to put my finger on what it is exactly… Oh,
well… I guess all that matters is Zachary and Ellie being all right now… Ben thought to himself as he
watched someone escort them to the ward.

“You should get some rest too, Mr. Nacht. We can take care of things here, so you have nothing to worry
about! Now that Ellie has puked up the poison, her condition will be a lot more manageable!” Raina
promised him confidently.



“Make sure you take good care of her. We can’t afford to have any more accidents like this.”

Zachary was still feeling uneasy as he had yet to see Ellie hop down from the bed and call him “Daddy”
in her usual sweet voice.



“I know, don’t worry!” Raina reassured him before hurrying off to examine Ellie.



“We have everything under control here, Spencer. Mr. Henry must be worried about you being gone for
so long, so you should head back too. Besides, you haven’t slept all night, so this would be a great time
to get some rest,” Ben said as he was concerned.

Spencer nodded. “Yeah, it is about time I get going now. I’ll bring Jamie with me, Mr. Zachary. The shock
kept him awake all night, and he just fell asleep a while ago.”

Having him stay here wouldn’t do him any good, as everyone would have to look after him in addition to
Zachary and Ellie. On top of that, Mr. Henry would feel a lot better if he saw Jamie.

“All right, I’ll go tell him,” Zachary replied with a faint smile when he saw Jamie curled up in a bed and
sleeping soundly while drooling all over the pillow.

Guess I never really have to worry about this kid, huh… I thought he’d cry at first, but he’s sleeping like a
log right now!

“Haha, Jamie sure is a good boy!” Spencer said with a smile.

Zachary gently ran his hand through Jamie’s hair. “Head on over before he wakes up, or he’ll have a ton
of questions for all of us. You know how much of a chatterbox he can be.”

“Haha, okay…”

Spencer motioned at Cain who then wrapped Jamie up in a blanket before carrying him in his arms.

Jamie turned his body to one side and nuzzled his head against Cain’s chest while making a suckling
motion with his mouth, much to Cain’s amusement.

“All right, get going,” Zachary urged them.

“Is he heavy?” Spencer asked with a chuckle as they left.



“He seems to be about Robbie’s size, but weighs a little more.”

“Hahaha! He can eat more than Robbie!”

Zachary’s smile faded when he saw them disappear from sight, and a cold look filled his eyes as he gave
the order, “Have Bruce investigate the security footage from Seacrest Restaurant in great detail. Tell him
to go frame by frame if he has to!”

Ben leaned in and asked softly, “Are you suspecting someone other than Danrique, Mr. Nacht?”

“Danrique may be cruel, but he is still a man of pride. He wouldn’t deny it if he was the one who did it.
Judging by how angry he got when I accused him of poisoning Ellie, it’s quite obvious that he’s innocent.
If he didn’t do it, then it must be someone else!” Zachary said as he recalled Danrique’s reaction.
