Chapter 715
Mistaking a Magnate for a Male Escort
âShe was wearing a mask back then. How did you recognize her?â Zachary wondered.
âHer eyes were one of a kindâ¦â Louis mumbled as he lost himself deep in his thoughts again.
âTo be honest, before she performed the piece, Iâve already seen her. She was exceptionally eye-
catching when she came down from the car. I even took a photo of her.â
At that, Louis took out the photo in his wallet to show Zachary. Indeed, it was Charlotte from two years ago.
Back then, Charlotte was forced by Sharon to wear a sexy evening dress. When the night breeze blew, the edge of her skirt flapped, and she was trying to keep it back down.
It was a seductive yet pure pose she had at that time.
Right at that moment, Louis had sneaked a shot of her.
Staring at the photo, Zacharyâs forehead creased. He never thought the banquet from two years ago would have helped Louis and Charlotte get together.
âShe later wore a mask when she performed on stage, but when I saw her eyes, I guessed that it was her,â Louis crowed. âHowever, to make sure I was right, I followed her backstage after her performance and saw her take off her mask.â
âWhat great eyesight youâve got! Zachary cut him off, not wanting to hear more.
âThe funny thing is that when I met her at Pillereâs Royal Theater, she doesnât remember anything about it,â Louis continued, disregarding Zacharyâs interruption. âI took out the photo and showed it to her, but she told me that wasnât her.â
âMaybe she doesnât want to admit whatever sheâs done back then,â came Zacharyâs half-hearted reply.
âThatâs not it.â Louis shook his head. âShe was sick, and she lost her memories.â
âWhat?â Zachary halted in his tracks. âReally?â
âYes.â Louis was certain. âEven until now, she has yet to completely recover. She has to take her meds every day, and she only remembers things from her childhood. She remembers nothing from her adulthood.â
Upon hearing his words, a solemn look crawled onto Zacharyâs face as thousands of thoughts raced in his mind.
If what Louis says is true, then Charlotte really doesnât remember me anymore. That means she doesnât remember her family and friends too.
Does she not remember the triplets too?
Right then, Zachary realized something major. Charlotte loved her children dearly, but since her return, she never talked about her children, much less looked for them. That was indeed strange behavior of her.
Moreover, she was close to Mrs. Berry. Yet, she never mentioned Mrs. Berryâs horrible death that happened a while back.
There was no plausible reason to explain her odd behaviors other than her loss of memory.
Did she really lose her memory? Is that why Danrique is using her against me?
âZachary⦠Zachary!â Louisâ voice pulled Zacharyâs mind back to reality. Zachary then said, âLet me bring you to rest at the hotel first.â
âWhatâs the matter with you? You seem distracted,â Louis queried.
âI didnât sleep well last night,â Zachary replied. Then, he added, âThat womanâs a complicated character. You should stay away from her.â
âI donât think sheâs complicated; I think sheâs mysterious,â crooned Louis, who did not agree with Zacharyâs words.
âI encountered her again at F Nationâs Royal Concert last year before I confessed my love to her and began courting her there. However, she told me that we could only be friends. I thought I didnât have any opportunities anymore, but look at how passionate she was toward me earlier! Iâm feeling my flame of hope burning anew!â
âThis is how women seduce men,â Zachary coldly stated. âIn other words, sheâs a scheming b*tch.â
âWhat beach?â Louis did not understand what he meant.
âAnyway, sheâs nothing but poison, so donât get close to her,â Zachary uttered, planning to mislead him.
âThere are plenty of pretty, sweet girls in H City. Iâll introduce them to you tonight.â
âNo way! Iâm not that kind of person,â Louis rejected promptly. âWe from the F Nation are loyal people who stick only to one.â
â¦
At ten o âclock in the evening, Louis followed Zachary to Sultry Night. Staring at the fluorescent lights and crowd of beautiful women, his eyes lit up in excitement. âI canât believe there are places as thrilling as this!â
