Mistaking a Magnate for a Male Escort chapter 1347

As Robert walked in, Lupine stood in his subordinates’ way.

The haughty men were about to force their way in when Robert shot them a glance. With that, they

retreated and waited outside the door.

Two female bodyguards kept their eyes on them, whereas Lupine watched over Charlotte inside the

building.

Unbeknownst to Robert, there were two other bodyguards on the alert upstairs.

"Come on, now, Charlotte. There's no need to be so antagonistic toward an elder, is there?” Robert

began to play nice as soon as he sat down. “Danrique and I are such good friends, after all!”

“Save it.” Charlotte was not having any of his nonsense. “If you have something to say, get to the

point.”

“All right.” He nodded with his lips curled. “In that case, I'll stop beating around the bush.”

Then, he placed a document on the table. “Once you sign this, we won't owe each other anything,

nor will we have anything to do with one another ever again.”

The woman took the document and glanced at it before scoffing. “How bold of you to ask me to

back out of the project just like this? What about my twenty billion worth of investment? Is that free

money for you?”

“The fact that you could even invest in the project in the first place was thanks to Louis’

arrangements in private, anyway, and you've benefitted from it too,” Robert said matter-of-factly.

“Besides, it was your fault that the wedding was canceled, and this has caused irreparable damages

to the Laurent family as well as Louis’ mental wellbeing. Twenty billion isn't too much to ask for,

don't you think?”

Lupine fumed as she listened to his words. If Morgan were around, she would have cursed at the

man out loud for being shameless.

“Hal” Charlotte scoffed. “First of all, I have never gained anything out of the project. Secondly, I

believe I'm not the only one responsible for the cancelation of the wedding. Have you forgotten all

the nasty things Lady Sherlyn and Diana did? In fact, you should instead be thanking me for saving

your reputation by keeping all these incidents a secret.”

“Diana was the one behind all those schemes. What does my wife have to do with them?” Robert

denied that Sherlyn masterminded the whole matter. “And what do you mean by that? Are you

threatening me?”

“I was hoping we could part amicably, but you're the one harboring malicious intents. Don’t blame

me for treating you in the same manner then.” Charlotte cocked an eyebrow and retorted. “If you

want me to back out of the project, sure, I can do that. But only if you return my investment to me.

Otherwise, please leave!”

“I'm surprised at the dire state Lindberg Corporation is now in,” Robert commented mockingly. “To

think that you're even fighting over a mere twenty billion. I suppose Mr. Lindberg is at his wits’ end

now!"

“It doesn’t matter if it's twenty billion or just twenty. What's mine will always be mine, and no one

gets to take it away from me.” Charlotte gritted her teeth. “Also, my brother will be back. Just you

wait!”
