Chapter 1138
Mistaking a Magnate for a Male Escort
âLouis!â called Robert. Louis quickly released Charlotte and said reluctantly, âI have to leave now, Charlotte. Iâll visit you later!â
âOkay, go on.â Charlotte smiled.
When Louis rushed to catch up with Robert, he could not help but turn around and wave goodbye to Charlotte.
There was an unconcealable look of joy on his face and in his gaze.
Charlotte watched them leave. Only after they had disappeared from her sight that she averted her gaze, looked downward, and heaved a deep sighâ¦
When she was still undecided, she felt a heavy burden in her heart.
However, now that she had made her decision, she did not feel relieved at all. Instead, she felt like she was heading on an unknown pathâ¦
Regardless of anything, itâs a good thing to help Danrique solve his problems, right?
With that thought, Charlotte smiled bitterly.
When Louis got into the car, he still kept turning around to stare at Charlotte for a long time.
âStop looking!â Noticing how obsessed his son was, Robert felt displeased. âYou can look at her all you want after marrying her.â
âYouâre right.â Thinking that he could marry Charlotte soon, Louis was filled with excitement. âIâm so happy, Dad!â
âDonât rejoice too soon.â Robert stared at him coldly. âEven a six-year-old child is smarter than you.â
âAre you talking about Robbie?â Louis asked with a smile. âHeâs very smart. No, in fact, heâs a genius! Not only has he inherited his father and great-grandfatherâs business acumen, but he is also skilled in technological research. He was involved in developing many of Divine Corporationâs technological products. Apparently, he has some patents for his inventions too. Just by himself, he earns hundreds of millions every year!â
âThatâs impressive! The Nacht family should keep him as their heir instead. Why were they willing to let him go?â
Robert frowned as a complex look flashed across his eyes.
He continued, âDanrique doesnât have a child. Does he want to keep that child and let him inherit the Lindberg Corporation? Wait, but if he does that, wonât the Lindberg Corporation be part of the Nacht family, then? Danrique will never do that.â
âDaddy, why are you saying that?â Louis was confused. âWhat does that have to do with us?â
âYou know nothing!â growled Robert. âIf we bring that child into the royal family, who knows what trouble heâll cause? Also, do you think that Zachary will just give up like this? He might confront us to get his son back. If that happens, the royal family will be utterly humiliated.â
âH-Howâ¦?â
âForget it. You wonât understand even if I explain it to you.â Robert could not be bothered to continue talking to him.
âIâll deal with this.â
âWhat do you mean?â Louis reminded him anxiously, âDad, Charlotte cares a lot about her family. When her maid got killed by Zara, she became enemies with the Nacht family. If you plan on scheming against Robbie, weâ¦â
âWhat are you thinking about?â Robert interrupted him, âHow can I possibly harm that child? I just want to find out what Danriqueâs plans are. If he doesnât mind where the child goes, itâs better to let Zachary reclaim him. This is good for both you and the Lindberg family.â
âBut Charlotte will be sad if her child isnât by her side.â Louis still felt worried.
âThen, she can keep the girl.â Robert had thought it through. âThe girl looks harmless and innocent. She wonât pose a threat in the future.â
âEllie is very adorable, but we should still respect Charlotteâs opinionsâ¦â
âThatâs it. Iâll settle it on my own, so you donât need to bother yourself with it anymore,â interrupted Robert. âDonât worry. Itâs a great thing for our family to be in-laws with the Lindberg family. Furthermore, since you like Charlotte so much, how can I ruin this marriage? Iâm just taking precautionary measures to eliminate any future problems for youâ¦â
