At Northridge…
Meanwhile, Charlotte had gotten a change of clothes and was lounging on the white leather sofa in her study room
while talking on the phone.
She had found out all about Zara’s news and knew how fatal the consequences could be for Nacht Group if the
situation continued to worsen.
She then gave Danrique a call and was able to get through rather quickly.
“Hey, Danrique…”
“Are you home?” Danrique’s tone was as cold as ice.
Looks like he knew about me staying over at the Nacht residence… In that case, he probably also knows what
happened to me. I’m guessing that’s why he got mad and did all this to avenge me! Charlotte thought to herself as

Regardless, she still felt the need to explain herself. “Yeah, I’m home. Ellie was very ill due to the poison, so I got
worried and…”
Danrique cut her off coldly. “You could just bring the child back for treatment if you’re that worried. The Nacht
family isn’t the only one with private doctors, you know?”
“Right…” Unlike most other sisters who would argue or behave coquettishly with their brothers, all Charlotte
showed was admiration, respect, and obedience toward Danrique.
Besides, it was pointless for her to explain any further since he already knew about her going there.
“Even if you’re there to look after your child, you shouldn’t let others bully you. There wasn’t much you could do
about it back then, but you’re a Lindberg now! You’re my sister, and you shouldn’t let anyone treat you like that!”
Danrique felt his blood boil at the thought of Charlotte being humiliated and bullied by Henry.
Charlotte felt touched when she heard the anger in his voice.
So this is how it feels like to have your family stand up for you… I used to be all by myself and could only tolerate or
avoid those who walked all over me, but things are different now! I have my cousin brother who will protect and
avenge me! I will never forget how Henry trusted Cynthia and had his bodyguards pin me down so they could put
me in shackles… I chose not to take my revenge on him because of the kids, but Danrique won’t do the same.
Everything he’s doing right now is payback for the humiliation the Nacht family has put me through!
“Do not forget the pain you felt simply because the wound has healed. Do not forget how the Nachts have hurt you,
how Sharon humiliated you in Coldbridge, how Mrs. Berry died, and how your wedding gown was stained red with
blood! Remember the purpose of your return, Charlotte! You’re back to avenge yourself and Mrs. Berry! Don’t let
Zachary’s sweet words deceive you! We Lindbergs are not spineless cowards!” Danrique shouted angrily and hung
up immediately after, leaving Charlotte with conflicted feelings.

Of course, I haven’t forgotten about my hatred for them! I’ve been searching for Zara and Sharon to get my
revenge, but I just can’t bring myself to hurt Henry and Zachary because of how much my kids love them! I don’t
even wish for what Danrique did to happen!
“I’m sorry, Ms. Lindberg… I got really mad when I heard from Jade about you being bullied at the Nacht residence.
On top of that, your condition has relapsed, and you were short on your medication. I got worried about your
safety, so I gave Mr. Lindberg a call. I didn’t think he would blow things out of proportion like this just to avenge you.
I’m really sorry…” Lupine apologized softly.
Ben would probably blame me for what happened if he knew about me telling on them. He told me a lot about
Zachary and Charlotte when we were tracking Sharon down, and I found myself wavering after hearing the stuff he
said. But then, I got all worked up when I came back and found out that Charlotte was bullied, and I made that
phone call…
Lupine felt incredibly uneasy at the thought of that.
