Her Mysterious Mogul Hubby novel Chapter 538

"Okay, will you call me Dad now?"

Zachary wanted so much to hear the children hail him as their father. Never before in his life had he gone to this length to please anyone.

These days, he had his office lined with books on parenting, and invested time and effort whenever possible to research into how to interact with children.

All that work just to convince these three little imps to willingly acknowledge him.

"I don't want to..." Ellie pouted.

Robbie and Jamie rescinded their own attempts when they saw their sister expressed her unwillingness.

"Is something wrong?" Zachary asked cautiously.

It could very well be the first time he had tried to be careful about what he said.

"Dad doesn't sound nice." Ellie tilted her head innocently. "I prefer Daddy.”

"Yes. Yes..." Jamie went along and said. "If we address our mother as Mommy, we should also call you Daddy."

"Then Daddy it is," Robbie declared with finality.

"Uh huh," Jamie and Ellie concurred with a nod.

The trio exchanged looks between themselves before they looked to Charlotte, and Zachary.

However, none of them opened their mouth.

Zachary had his head in his hands. He yearned for them to hail him, but it seemed that much harder than he could have imagined.

"Well, hurry it up." Even Mrs. Berry got impatient.

Charlotte merely smiled silently.

"On three." Ellie waved her hand like an orchestral conductor. "One, two, three!"

"Daddy—"

The endearing qualities of their three voices were amplified loud and clear when they shouted in unison.

Zachary's heart almost melted. Hethen drew them into his arms.
