“Well, it’s not exactly because of the kids.” Lupine chose her words carefully. “The main reason is that the two of
you have never really let go of each other.”
Charlotte fell silent upon hearing that. She did not want to admit it, but it seemed like she could no longer lie to
herself.
As a matter of fact, Zachary still had an important place in her heart.
She could ignore her true feelings if she lived a single life. But whenever any man tried to get close to her, Zachary
would appear in her mind, constantly reminding her that she was his woman.
When she recalled what might have happened between her and Louis, she felt utterly embarrassed. Regardless of
how much she did not want to face it, she knew she probably had committed a mistake.
“Since there’s no news yet, let’s just stop thinking about it. You should get some more rest in the meantime.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLupine tried to ease her worries. “After all, you can meet him the latest by six.”
“Yeah.” Charlotte wanted to get some sleep. She had been losing sleep during the nights and she was feeling utterly
weary at the moment.
“Let me help you to the bed.” Lupine supported Charlotte toward the bed.
Just then, Lupine’s phone rang. She glanced at the screen and answered the call right away. “Hello, Gordon! She’s
with me. Hold on.”
Lupine handed the phone to Charlotte.
“Ms. Lindberg, Mr. Nacht is in Regium Hotel of the Royal Club now. It turns out that Mr. Murphy has booked the
hotel. There will be a business meeting in the afternoon and a banquet at night.”
“I see.”
Charlotte suddenly realized how vague Louis had been the night before. He only told me that Mr. Murphy will meet
Zachary at Regium Hotel. He didn’t mention anything about a banquet… Maybe he didn’t want me to know too
much as he feared I might come to find Zachary.
“The kids are staying in the villa area in the club too and are personally protected by Bruce. I’ve got the hotel’s
blueprint, and I’ve found the location of the villa. If you’d like, I can send some men to get the kids now.”
“Good job. Gordon, you’re without a doubt Danrique’s best assistant.” Charlotte was impressed. “But please don’t
make a move. Let me try to deal with Zachary peacefully first. That’s the best for the kids.”
“I understand. That’s why I’m not doing anything yet. I’ll wait for your instruction,” Gordon responded.
“Please come back now. I need you to protect Danrique’s kids.” Charlotte decided without hesitation. “I’ll bring
Lupine with me into the club. I’ll find a way to meet with Zachary.”
“Okay.”
Hanging up the phone, Charlotte turned to Lupine. “Gather everyone and get ready to depart.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Got it.” Lupine went on to it.
When Charlotte was freshening up, Gordon got back and briefed her about the whole situation. Other than that, he
also gave a few entrance tickets to Charlotte.
“Mr. Murphy had booked the entire Royal Club, and no outsider is allowed to go in. Only those with this facial
identification entrance ticket can go in. And I’ve gotten five tickets for you. The identifications are for Lupine,
Morgan, and the rest. That’s the most I could do.”
“Wow. Gordon, that’s impressive.” Lupine was utterly amazed. “Only you can do such a thing.”
“Mr. Lindberg trained me well. I’m used to taking care of all the details.” Gordon displayed a smile. “I suggest you
guys wait for a while before you go in. The security will be stricter during the business meeting.
You’ll be made known the moment you enter. And if Mr. Nacht refuses to negotiate, it would look bad. If news gets
out, it might affect Mr. Nacht’s and the Laurent family’s reputation. For the evening banquet, you can enter at five
o’clock. All the guests will be wearing grand retro outfits and masks. I don’t know much about clothing, so you’ll
have to figure that out yourselves.”
