Charlotte instructed Morgan to assist Hayley and Sam to procure the herbs they might need.
Once she instructed Lupine to take over the project at South Sea, she made her way to Louis’s room.
Louis had gotten himself changed into a casual set of loungewear. He was seated on the couch after he had his
shower.
When Charlotte knocked on the door, he was in the middle of checking his email with a glass of wine. Thrilled by her
presence, he put everything aside and asked, “Charlotte, are you done?”
Charlotte nodded and made her way into the man’s room with some light refreshments. “Why don’t you help
yourself with these since we’re still an hour away from dinner?”
“Thanks!” Louis thought of reciprocating her effort. He showed her a delicate-looking jewelry box and suggested, “I
have something for you as well!”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Is it another necklace?” Charlotte asked with a beam since he had bought her different types of necklaces. To be
precise, he had bought her so many that she couldn’t even store them in her jewelry box anymore.
Louis urged with a cheeky smile, “Yes! Hurry up and check it out!”
Charlotte wasn’t particularly thrilled, but she was utterly dumbfounded the moment she saw the necklace.
I-Isn’t this Mom’s sapphire necklace? I sold this to someone else in exchange for food on the table when Dad
passed on seven years ago! I can’t believe I’m getting my hands on it again!
Zachary had always picked on me for being a fool when I told him I wasn’t given much of a choice but to sell it off
for the sake of our children!
“I have been searching high and low just to get my hands on this! In the end, I found it at an auction in F Nation! I
guess fate must have brought it to me! It belongs to your late mother, doesn’t it?” Louis shared the great news with
a bright grin.
“How have you figured it out?” Charlotte was astonished as she couldn’t recall sharing those with the man in front
of her.
“I saw a photo of your mother standing next to Danrique with this necklace in his office and recalled Zachary
acquiring a similar ruby necklace in the past. Danrique told me you sold the necklace of your late mother when you
were in desperate need of cash back in the day. He had been searching for it as well.”
Charlotte responded with a self-deprecating smirk and remarked, “It turns out he still cares about me, huh?”
Louis was slightly upset. He asked, “Huh? Aren’t you supposed to compliment me for a job well done? After all, I
was the one who had found the necklace!”
“Well, I guess you deserve a part of the credits as well! Thanks!”
“You’re welcome! It’s worth it as long as it puts a smile on you! Trust me, Charlotte! I’ll make you the happiest
woman in the world!”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmCharlotte went dead silent and stared at the necklace in front of her when she heard him. Her mind was all over the
place since she didn’t know what to tell him.
Louis was equally anxious. He asked, “What’s wrong? Are you upset or something? Don’t you love me?”
Charlotte gave it a thought and asked, “Louis, are you aware of the past I had with Zachary?”
“I shared the sort of affection I had for you with him because I wasn’t! I got suspicious when he started showing up
and continued getting in our way whenever we were out for a date! He even tried to drive us apart from one
another! When your brother told me things would never work out between both of you, I finally figured out he was
the father of your children! You’re not going to return to him, are you?”
Charlotte nodded and sighed. “I’m afraid that’s impossible since things will never work out between us.”
“Actually, Zachary was serious about you. He was at his worst when something happened to you two years ago. If it
weren’t because of your children and his responsibilities as the person in charge of Nacht Group, he might not have
made it—”
