Chapter 935

“Are you going to get in my way as well, Ms. Blackwood?” Ben asked with a frown, looking cool for the
first time ever.

Cynthia quickly signed at him, ”No, that’s not what I meant…”

“Step aside,” Ben said as he shoved past her and entered Ellie’s room.

There was a vicious glint in Cynthia’s eyes when she glared at him from behind, but she quickly went
back to her usual gentle self and entered Zachary’s study room looking sad.

“What’s wrong?” Zachary had just finished his medicine and was going through some documents.

Cynthia shook her head in response but maintained that depressed look on her face.



“Did someone bully you?” Zachary asked again.

“No… Ben wanted to see Ellie. I told him she needs to rest, and he wasn’t too happy about it. I was
wondering if I might be a little too controlling…”



Zachary frowned in displeasure. “That little sh*t sure has gotten a lot bolder… How dare he have that
attitude with you?”

“No, he didn’t… He’s just worried about Ellie, that’s all. She knocked over a bowl earlier because she
refused to take the medicine… Don’t go scolding Ben, Zachary! If you do, I won’t know how to face him
afterward!” Cynthia signed.

“All right, I won’t. I’m sorry you had to put up with all this,” Zachary said while patting her on the head.



“It’s fine. I’m just glad you understand.”

Cynthia gave him a gentle look as she reached out to wipe the traces of medicine from his lips. Seeing
as he didn’t resist her touch, she then gently caressed his face and signed, ”You’ve gotten skinnier…”

Zachary held her hand and said with a smile, “I’m feeling a lot better thanks to your treatment. Honestly, I
can’t thank you enough!”

“I’m just doing what I should.” Cynthia signed and leaned against his chest.

Zachary didn’t show any signs of resistance, but the look in his eyes was as cold as ice.

After entering the room, Ben told the other medical staff to leave before looking at Ellie who was curled
up in a corner. “What’s wrong, Ellie?” he asked with a pained expression on his face.

Ellie pursed her lips, and her tears rolled down her cheeks. “I want Mommy… Will you take me to see my
mommy, Mr. Ben?”

“Are you not afraid of Uncle Dan anymore? I remember you saying you wanted to come back when you
were staying with your mommy back then,” Ben asked in a gentle tone.

“Daddy wasn’t sick at the time, and Jamie was here too! We didn’t have so many strange people in the
house… Now Jamie’s gone, and Daddy’s sick too! I’m really scared! I miss Mommy…” Ellie said while
sobbing, and it hurt Ben to see her like this.

“Your daddy will be all better soon, Ellie. Jamie will be coming home soon too.”

“But I miss Mommy! She was feeding me my medicine while I was asleep, and I heard her whisper in my
ear ‘Don’t be afraid, Ellie. Mommy will protect you!’… And then, I got all better after that…”



Ben froze for a moment when he heard that, and he quickly asked, “Are you saying that your mommy
went to visit you while you were unconscious?”

Ellie nodded and said seriously, “Yeah! She fed me my medicine, and I heard her voice shortly after that!
I also heard Mommy talking to Lupine about protecting me…”

Ellie wasn’t as good at describing things like Robbie was, but Ben understood what she meant.

So, Charlotte had already arrived at the hospital and fed Ellie the medicine before Cynthia carried out the
treatment… In that case, Ellie was able to recover because of Charlotte’s medicine, not Cynthia’s
treatment!

Ben then gave Bruce a call and said, “When you brought Mr. Nacht to the hospital after he got poisoned
at the Lindberg residence, you mentioned something about Ms. Lindberg giving him some kind of
medicine. Is that right?”

“Yes, Ms. Lindberg had escorted Mr. Nacht out of there despite the risk of getting on her brother’s bad
side. She was holding a bottle when she handed him over to me,” Bruce replied.
