Mistaking a Magnate for a Male Escort chapter 1332

"Yes, what's most important now is to find Francesco.” There was still a trace of hope that Ben had

leaned on. “As long as we find Francesco, Mr. Nacht will be saved.”

“Indeed. Still, we have to be prepared,” Bruce said. “By the way, how is Ms. Lindberg? When is she

going to come back?”

"Come back?” Ben was simultaneously furious and anxious when Charlotte was mentioned. “Mr.

Nacht had been so careful in making sure that she doesn't find out about his illness. Furthermore,

she’s cautious. Their relationship is still tense.”

"Why won't they just be honest with each other? We're already at this point!” Bruce blurted out. “If

anything does happen to Mr. Nacht, no one will be leading the Nacht family. When that happens,

it'll be nothing but chaos!”

“I know. I'm anxious about it too.” Ben sighed. “If Ms. Lindberg comes back, we'll have someone to

lead us, at least. With Mr. Spencer and Mr. Sterk’s support, as well as our protection, no outsiders

will try to wreck chaos.”

"What is Ms. Lindberg thinking? Even if she doesn't think for her sake, she has to consider the

children, right?” Ben's heart lurched. “The three kids are still young. As great a man as Mr. Spencer,

he is but a servant at the end of the day. He can't become the head of the family like Ms. Lindberg.”

"We're just pointlessly fretting now. Let's just work on what Mr. Nacht has instructed us to do first,”

Ben finally said.

“I think it's time for you and Marino to do your part,” Bruce said, glancing at his surroundings. “If Mr.

Nacht refuses to say anything, the two of you will pretend to accidentally spill some beans. I'm sure

that Ms. Lindberg will come back once she finds out about the truth.”

“If Mr. Nacht finds out about it, we'll be in big trouble.” Ben hesitated. “He's very nonaccepting of

that idea; he hopes that Ms. Lindberg comes back to the Nacht family out of love and not pity.”

“Is there any difference?” Bruce groaned. “A woman only feels bad for a man if she loves him. Why

would she care about him otherwise?”

"Huh. You're right.” Ben was starting to waver with his decision.

“I'm always right,” Bruce huffed. “I just can't stand you all beating around the bush in a relationship.

It's so annoying. If I were you, I'd just snatch the person home if I happen to fall in love with her.”

At that, Ben cast Bruce a look of admiration. “I never thought you'd be that bold.”

"Stop babbling and get to work.”

“Got it.”

The brothers then split up and began working on the task that Zachary had assigned them.

After Ben arranged a meeting with Spencer, Johann, and Rodney, he returned to his room. He

hesitated, wondering if he should call Lupine and leak bits of the secret to her.

Nevertheless, Lupine called at that moment. “Let's meet.”

“Now?” Ben panicked. Like Bruce had said, Ben was the most cowardly one when it came to

romantic relationships.

He was nervous to hear Lupine inviting him out in the middle of the night, alone.

“Yes. Right now,” Lupine demanded. “Meet me at the large tree at the back of the mountain in

Northridge. I have to see you in ten minutes!”

With that said, Lupine ended the call.

Ben held the phone with shaky hands. After a moment of hesitation, he went downstairs.

“Ben, it's late. Where are you going? I can help you with it,” Marino said when he entered the house

and encountered Ben.

“I'm going out for a while. Stay right outside Mr. Nacht's room in case he needs anything,” Ben told

him.

“I don't think I'm up for the task,” Marino worriedly said. “What are you going to do? Why don't I go

on your behalf? Mr. Nacht is used to having you around. I don't get what he’s trying to say

sometimes.”

“I'll be back soon.”

As if someone was running after him, Ben darted out of the house before speeding off in his car.

Marino watched him leave, sensing something fishy about him. Despite that, he dared not ask too

many questions as he hurried upstairs to guard Zachary's room.
