Chapter 1504
Mistaking a Magnate for a Male Escort
Chapter 1504 Very Weird âRest well, Daddy.â Robbie expressed his concern to Zachary before turning his attention to Charlotte. âMommy, donât forget to visit Ellie in the hospital when youâre free.â
âHowâs Ellie?â Charlotte hastened to ask, âDid she talk to you today?â
âShe said sheâs scared, but when I asked her what she is scared of, she cried immediately and wouldnât talk clearlyâ¦â Robbie explained. âWhen we left just now, she kept asking for you.â
âIâll visit her at the hospital later,â she said. âOkay. Go back to your room now.â
âAll right.â Robbie looked at Zachary and inclined his head as a greeting before leaving.
âWhat happened to Ellie?â Zachary asked.
âThe fire incident traumatized her,â Charlotte answered briefly before heading to the closet. âI told you before when we were in the car.â
Zachary wanted to follow her to the closet, but his injuries hurt so bad that he had to walk over slowly. By the time he reached the closet, she had already changed into a fresh set of clothes.
âIâm going to the hospital now. Take a good rest at home,â she said while tying up her long hair.
âIâll go with you,â he quickly offered. âEllie is my child too. Iâm worried about her.â
âI know, but youâre not feeling well either, so you should rest more.â Charlotte cupped his face with her hands.
âBesides, thereâs still a lot of work waiting for us to settle. I need you to recuperate fast so that you can help me out with it.â
âButââ
âAll right, I have to go now.â Charlotte kissed him on his forehead and left in a hurry. âGo and take a shower. Mrs.
Rawlston will bring your meal over soon.â
Zacharyâs eyes darkened as he watched her leave.
Once the sound of Charlotteâs footsteps faded, he started looking around as if studying the room. Then, he made his way to the bathroom.
In the meantime, Charlotte told Morgan to stay in the house while she and Lupine brought a few maids to the hospital.
Halfway down Northridge, they bumped into Gordon and his men.
After parking the cars aside, Gordon got out of his car and asked, âHave you brought that man home?â
âYou mean Mr. Nacht?â Lupine took a glance at Charlotte before persuading Gordon in a gentle voice, âGordon, Ms.
Lindberg and Mr. Nacht are now married. Regardless of the family feud in the past, we should show Mr. Nacht some respect now.â
âThatâs not what I meantâ¦â Gordon frowned as if he was hesitant to speak.
âWhatâs wrong?â Charlotte knew something was on his mind, so she suggested, âLetâs talk in the car.â
âOkay.â
After instructing all the other bodyguards to travel in another car, Lupine took the driverâs seat while Gordon was in the front passenger seat.
While Lupine was driving, Gordon started voicing out his concern.
âMs. Lindberg, donât you feel thereâs something weird about Mr. Nacht? He was actually awake when I sneaked into the ward. The moment he saw me, he was evidently shocked and panicked.â
âYou met him?â Charlotte asked.
âOur eyes met for about three seconds, but his reaction was very weird,â he said with a frown.
After thinking about it for a while, he analyzed, âMr. Nacht and I might have only met a few times before this, but from what I know, heâs a sophisticated man whoâs capable of handling any situation calmly. Yet, when he saw me, he looked stunned. I could even sense panic in his eyes. Thereâs just something bizarre about that man.â
Upon hearing that, Charlotte was silent for a moment before she asked, âDid you speak to him?â
âNope. When I was about to approach him, a doctor came in, so I had to sneak out through the window,â Gordon replied. âJudging from the hospitalâs security, they must have made preparations for this beforehand!âq
