“Daddy, you’re bad!” Ellie complained as she pouted. “You’re a man. You should be protecting Mommy. How could you let Mommy protect you instead?”

 

“Ellie’s right,” Jamie agreed.

“I want to protect her too, but your mommy was adamant about playing the hero. Before I could do anything, she had rushed headlong into the situation.”

At that, Zachary cast a disapproving look at Charlotte.

“You—” Charlotte was furious. She did not know why he was telling the children that.

 
 

“Mommy, don’t play the hero next time. You have to protect yourself first and foremost,” Robbie said to her. “It pained us to see you hurt.”

“Yes, yes.” Ellie then grabbed Charlotte’s hand and gently blew on it. “Mommy, the bandages are wrapped around your hand tightly, so I’m sure it must hurt a lot.”

 

“It’s fine. It doesn’t hurt,” Charlotte answered lightheartedly. Seeing her children had lifted her spirits.

“Mommy, who’s the one who hurt you?” I’ll beat them up for you,” Jamie exclaimed as he swung his little fists. “I’m going to teach the naughty person a lesson.”

“It’s okay. We’ve dealt with the person.” Charlotte pinched his cheek. “Okay, it’s time to go back to your room. It’s late now.”
