Chapter 1581
Mistaking a Magnate for a Male Escort
Chapter 1581 Cool As Danriqueâs men were searching for Francesca hastily, Sean didnât even stop to talk to Charlotte. It seemed like a serious situation.
If they found her, will they take her back to Erihal instead of letting her treat Zachary?
Charlotte grew anxious at the thought. She turned toward the back door that Francesca had left earlier and furrowed her brows.
She didnât have enough men with her now. Even if she had help, there was no way she could get Francesca from Danrique. After all, he was far more capable than her.
Do I just sit here and do nothing? Wait a minuteâ¦
Suddenly, Charlotte recalled Gammaâs words. Looks like I have to rely on the children. Francesca is still nearby, so hopefully, sheâll show up if I use the childrenâs trick. I wonder if Fifiâs wings have recovered.
Charlotte immediately headed home.
Morgan and the rest were waiting in the street. Upon spotting her, they hurried over and asked, âMs. Lindberg, are you all right?â
âWe need to get back now!â Charlotte urged.
âGot it.â Morgan immediately started the engine and drove off.
Back home, Charlotte went straight to the courtyard to look for Fifi.
A maid was applying ointment on Fifiâs wing. A few weeks had passed, and Fifi was recovering well, though not completely.
Charlotte felt bad for Fifi. She patted its wings and asked, âFifi, can you fly to the forest?â
Fifi cooed reluctantly and flapped its wing trying to fly.
Charlotte gazed at it expectantly, but it only managed to reach the height of the branch before struggling and dropping to the ground.
âFifi!â Charlotte dashed forward to catch it.
Fortunately, Fifi fell into her arms and didnât get hurt.
âIâm sorry. I wonât force you anymore.â
Charlotteâs heart ached for Fifi. After all, it had gotten injured while saving Ellie. Hence, she couldnât bear to force it to fly.
âMs. Lindberg, the doctor reminded us that Fifiâs wound needs some time to recover,â the maid revealed softly.
âI know. Take good care of it.â
Charlotte handed Fifi back to them and spun on her heels to enter the house.
As she couldnât rely on Fifiâs help, it was time to talk to Danrique. Hopefully, he would allow Francesca to stay behind long enough to treat Zacharyâs condition.
It would be best if she could convince Francesca to bring Zachary back to Northridge and treat him here. They wouldnât have to hide like this.
Back in her room, Charlotte charged her phone and gave Danrique a call.
Danrique had been out of touch for a long time, but his phone was finally switched on.
Clearly, Erihalâs situation had changed. Danrique had taken action and was in total control of the situation.
Before the call was cut, someone answered the phone. A clear voice greeted, âCharlotte!â
âDanrique!â Charlotte blurted out excitedly. âItâs great to hear your voice again.â
It had been ages since she last heard Danriqueâs voice. Though she knew he had been protecting and helping her in secret, they didnât get to contact each other.
His familiar voice gave her warmth.
After what had happened, they had a closer relationship now.
âMm.â Danrique was indifferent, as usual. He was worried about his sister, but his tone was calm. âI have two minutes to spare.â
âIâll make it short.â Charlotte said swiftly, âI just ran into Francesca. Danrique, can you let her bring Zachary back to Northridge so she can treat him here? You can bring her back to Erihal after the treatment ends.â
âNo,â came Danriqueâs firm answer. âShe has to return as soon as possible.â
âButââ
Before Charlotte could say anything, Danrique ended the call.q
