Chapter 1185
Mistaking a Magnate for a Male Escort
After cooking some pear stew and pasta, Charlotte brought them to Louisâ room. âSince you didnât eat dinner, I cooked some pasta for you. Come and try it!â
âYouâre amazing, Charlotte.â Louis was extremely touched.
âI donât know if you like it or not.â Charlotte passed him the cutlery before pouring a bowl of pear stew for him. âI prepared quite a lot of pear stew and kept them in a thermal flask. If youâd like to drink it at night, you can pour them into a bowl.â
âYouâre so thoughtful!â After devouring the pasta, Louis exclaimed, âThis is the yummiest food Iâve ever eaten. â
âItâs just a normal plate of pasta,â said Charlotte with a smile. âSince you caught a cold, your stomach will feel much better after eating something warm.â
âYeah! I feel so comfortable now as if my cold has been cured⦠Achoo!â
Before Louis finished his sentence, he sneezed again.
âHow can you get well so quickly?â Charlotte was amused. âSam is still brewing the herbal concoction and will bring it to you later. After drinking it, you should rest early. Youâll probably feel much better tomorrow.â
With that, she stood up and prepared to leave.
âCharlotte!â Louis quickly pulled her back. âAre you leaving? Canât you stay here and keep me company?â
âYou should rest.â Charlotte gazed at him gently. âIâll disturb you if Iâm here.â
âYou wonâtâ¦â Louis grabbed her hand, unwilling to let go. âI want to look at you.â
âYou can look at me tomorrow.â Charlotte tugged her hand away. âRest early, okay?â
Then, she left the room directly.
Louis gazed at her as she left, feeling a wave of disappointment in him. He initially thought that she was treating him nicely because she was starting to fall for him. However, upon closer introspection, he figured out that she was probably just showing concern for a friend.
Although there might be some elements of gratitude in it, love was definitely not a factorâ¦
Louis heaved a deep sigh before smiling again. Itâs fine! As long as I persevere, Iâll be able to move her, no matter how emotionless she might be.
When Charlotte left the room, she saw a figure escaping rapidly.
That figure was Sherlynâs maid.
Charlotte frowned. She knew that Sherlyn had been spying on them secretly out of concern for how her relationship with Louis was progressing.
âCharlotte!â
At that moment, Sam walked over with the herbal concoction, with Diana and the two maids following him.
âIs the herbal concoction ready?â asked Charlotte with a smile.
âYeah.â Sam nodded. âHe has to drink it once tonight, and a few more days after that.â
âYou can just pass it to them. Go and rest soon!â said Charlotte with concern. âYou have to wake up tomorrow and prepare the medicine with Dr. Felch.â
âItâs fine! It wonât take much time, anyway,â replied Sam. âI need to remind Sir Louis about some things to take note of. Oh, right. He understands Chanaean, right?â
âYes, he does.â Charlotte nodded. âSleep early after doing that.â
âOkay.â Sam walked up the stairs with the medicine.
Just when Charlotte was about to return to her room to rest, Diana asked carefully, âMs. Lindberg, arenât you going to keep Louis company?â
âHe can rest after taking his medicine.â
Avoiding the question, Charlotte left without sparing a glance.
Diana did not dare to say anything either. After Charlotte left, she raised her head and followed behind Sam.
âMs. Lindberg is so cold toward Sir Louis,â whispered the maid in Ferropenian.
âShh! Donât spout nonsense,â remind Diana softly before knocking on Louisâ door.
Sam brought the herbal concoction in, placed it down and left after saying something to Louis.
As the medicine was bitter, Diana ordered the maids to ask for some candies from Sam. The maids quickly followed her orders.
Only Diana and Louis were left in the room.
Under the dim lighting, an ambiguous look flashed across Dianaâs eyes as she stared at Louis lovingly. âLouis, let me help you to the bed.â
