Zachary's voice was extremely gentle. Smiling with his eyes, he looked extremely charming.
Charlotte was stunned briefly as she was mesmerized by how handsome he looked.
He sounded as if he was flirting with her, instead of ordering or threatening her.
Charlotte was at the brink of being bewitched before she was jolted by the slight force he applied on her jaw.
Regaining her senses all of a sudden, she realized that it was the Devil tempting her.
Her heart began to race so fast that it even skipped a beat. Subconsciously, she opened her mouth but nothing came out.
Should I tell him about the children?Given how volatile his emotions are, how will he react if he knows he is a father?
Her mind flashed with a plethora of scenarios...
"How can you not know the answer to such a simple mathematics question? I'll lock you in the secret room to reflect upon yourself. We talk again after three days and nights."
"Why can't you even defeat the teacher in a fight? Are you even worthy of being my son? I'll send you to the Devil's training camp."
"Crying again? I hate kids that cry. If you don't stop, I'll sew up your mouth!"
Holding those thoughts, Charlotte couldn't help but feel a shiver down her spine. Suddenly, her body was enveloped by a sudden frostiness.
Zachary is someone that that will imprison anyone at a whim, glare at them with a menacing look, and destroy his enemies decisively. Someone like that isn't suited to be a father. Furthermore, he might have a hand in dad's death.No, I definitely can't tell him. However, even if I don't, he will find out sooner or later. What should I do?! really don't know.
Just when she was struggling with her dilemma, her phone suddenly rang causing her to look around frantically.
Meanwhile, Zachary casually took her phone out from underneath her pillow.
It was Michael that called.
Shaken, Charlotte snatched her phone back and wanted to answer it.
But when she felt Zachary's frosty gaze, she froze and didn't dare pick up.
With one hand, Zachary slid his finger over the phone to answer and put it on speaker.
With the other hand, he pinched Charlotte's chin and signaled for her to answer.
When Charlotte greeted with a wary "Hello", Michael's frantic voice could be heard, "Charlotte, where are you? Are you alright?"
"Michael, I..."
