Her Mysterious Mogul Hubby (Charlotte and Zachary) novel Chapter 287

"Michael!" Sharon exclaimed in shock and queried, "What are you doing here?"

"What's with your response? Am I not allowed to be here?"

Michael had put on a simple yet elegant-looking sage set of outfits for the banquet, but it couldn't conceal the fact he was a handsome man.

The man, who had an androgynous appearance, had acquired the attention of the women that were around.

"No! Of course not! Are you guys acquainted?" Sharon asked with a peculiar smile, glancing at Michael and Charlotte.

Michael wrapped his arm around Charlotte's waist and declared, "She's a childhood friend of mine, and we used to be course mates back in our university days. I guess you can consider me her guardian!"

"I see! It's just like Zachary and me!" Sharon replied with a bright grin.

Sharon would constantly remind Charlotte of her extraordinary relationship with Zachary.

When Sharon brought up Zachary in front of the duo, Charlotte recalled the deal she had with Zachary-she promised him she would stay away from Michael in the future.

If the Devil is conscious Michael's here, I think he's going to lose control over himself again...

Charlotte inched away from Michael and shrugged his hand off her waist when she thought about it.

Michael was taken aback by her actiondisappointment was written all over her face.

"Since you're here to keep Charlotte company, I will leave both of you alone." Sharon smiled and sashayed in the direction of the crowd.

Ben went after Sharon because he would have to return to Zachary's side.

Similarly, Lucy went after the departing duo after she glanced at Charlotte.

Charlotte was about to leave, but Michael got ahead of her and stopped her. "Charlotte, we need to talk."

She shrugged him off and stated in a low voice, "Michael, have you forgotten your promise to stay away from me?"

"E-Er..." Michael's stiff hand was left hanging around in the middle of the air embarrassedly

while his face turned gloomy in disappointment.

"I'm sorry..." Charlotte avoided his gaze and apologized.
