After giving it some thought, Charlotte instructed, “Morgan, take Jade with you to find the children. However, don’t take them away by force. Just tell them that I want to see them. I’ll take Lupine with me to negotiate with Zachary. It would be best if he is willing to let me see the children. If not, I would still need to see them no matter what.”

She continued, “By then, I’ll respect the children’s decision. If they are willing to come with me, I will definitely take them. I don’t care if I have to fight Zachary for them.”

“That should work.” Lupine nodded. “But, Ms. Lindberg, we should still negotiate first and try to resolve it amicably. After all, we need to take the children’s feelings into consideration.”

“Exactly.” Realizing that she had overreacted earlier, Morgan softened her stance and advised, “Let’s discuss it with him first. It would be great if we can come to an agreement. If we are left with no other choice-”

“Enough. Let’s go with that.” Charlotte had made her decision. “You’re right. If Zachary doesn’t allow me to see the children, there’s nothing much I can do about it. Therefore, I must seize the initiative no matter what.”
