Chapter 745
Mistaking a Magnate for a Male Escort
These utterances brought about an even sullen look on Zacharyâs face. With his eyebrows closely knitted together, he strode overâ¦
At that moment, the duo at the piano was smiling tenderly at each other.
Louisâ keen blue eyes were looking at Charlotte with a doting gaze. On his face, his lips curved into a sweet half-moon which portrayed the gratification within his heart.
As with Charlotte, there was also a broad, genial smile on her face. The glint in her eyes was particularly gentle when she looked at Louis.
Side by side, they were sitting on the piano stool, looking so intimate and affectionate toward one another.
Knock! Knock! Knock!
Out of the blue, they heard someone rapping their knuckles on the piano.
Everyone in the restaurant shifted their gaze at this mysterious, arrogant, and indifferent dark-suited man.
There was inherent savagery emanating from him, which propelled others to stay away in fear.
Not only that but there was also a piercingly cold glint in his eyes. It was as though he was Lucifer who had risen from hell just to shatter the relationship between these two lovebirds.
In that instance, the dreamy atmosphere dissipatedâ¦
All the onlookers retreated timidly and didnât dare to get too close for fear of being involved in the forthcoming peril.
âZachary?â Charlotte looked up and showed a long face as soon as she saw that it was him. âWhat are you doing here?â
âHe- Heâs coming for me.â
Louis didnât know the complicated relationship between Zachary and Charlotte and thought that Zachary had indeed come to the restaurant to look for him. Hence, he yanked Zachary to the side and spoke in a hushed voice, âHavenât I told you not to come? Why are you here?â
âI told youâ¦â Zachary took a glance at Charlotte and reminded him in a solemn manner, âThis woman is not a kind soul.â
âDonât worry about me. I know what Iâm doing.â Louis sighed and elbowed Zachary anxiously. âLeave now. Otherwise, Charlotte would be chiding you. She already knew that it was you who brought me to Sultry Night last night-â
âSo what if she did?â
Zachary raised his eyebrows and stared at Charlotte dispassionately.
In return, Charlotte was also glaring bitterly at him.
The two of them regarded each other as enemies, and none of them would yield before the other did.
âI know youâre doing this for me, and youâve come to warn me because youâre worried that I might be deceivedâ¦â Louis put his hand around Zacharyâs shoulder and added in a low voice, âBut Iâm already a grown-up. Iâm able to discern the difference between what is good and bad.â
âYouâre too naive. You donât understandâ¦â Zachary leaned over and whispered in Louisâ ear, âNot only does this woman have a dangerous identity, but sheâs also sulky and violent. Plus, she keeps a wild animal as her pet. Itâs said to be an eagle which specifically feeds on menâs eyes!â
âWhat?â Louis paled in an instant as he was terribly frightened. âIt canât be.â
Bruce, who was watching by the side, lamented in silence. Sir Louis is really a kind and simple soul!
Meanwhile, Zachary was not relenting yet.
âWhy not? Why donât you ask her yourself if you donât believe me?â Seeing that Louis started wavering, Zachary continued persuading him, âThereâs one more thing. I heard that sheâs sadomasochistic!â
âNo!â
Louisâ eyes widened in horror, and he turned around, taking a gander at Charlotte, and quickly turned back as he said hurriedly, âWhere did you hear all these things? Thatâs impossible! Charlotte is such a virtuous and impeccable girl. Sheâs not that kind of person!â
âYouâre such a silly man. Why would she reveal this hidden side of her to you?â
âButâ¦â
âAlright, letâs cut this out.â Not giving Louis the chance to say anything else, Zachary held his wrist and was about to take him away, âCome with me!â
âHold onâ¦â
Louis turned around to look at Charlotte and then at Zachary again. He was in two minds.
Right then, the onlookers couldnât stand by in silence anymore and started lamentingâ¦
âMy goodness. All this while I was under the impression that this blue-eyed handsome was a couple with the lady. And it turns outââ
âI thought this fine young man in the dark suit was here for the girl. Who would have expected heâs actually here for the guy!â
âI know!â
âYou people are way too conservative. Iâve seen it coming. This is true love!â A pretty young girl in the crowd rolled her eyes and continued with a smug on her face, âThese two handsomes are a glaring contrast which also complements one another. Theyâre like yin and yang one is stand-offish when the other is amiable. They are a truly perfect match together!â
