Mistaking a Magnate for a Male Escort novel Chapter 1248

“Not necessarily, as it involves their reputation.” Lupine raised her gaze at Charlotte. “Ms. Lindberg, is Mr. Nacht doing this to bring you to your knees?”

“He really is something.” Charlotte gritted her teeth in exasperation.

Given the current situation, she was left with two choices. She either had to lower herself and marry Louis knowing his family would always hold the matter against her, or she could go back to Zachary. In the former, she would constantly be ridiculed and wouldn’t be able to see her children for the rest of her life.

She couldn’t understand why Zachary was doing all this when he insisted she had slept with Louis and hated her guts for it. Furthermore, he even had a woman by his side. Hence, she wondered if it was all just for the sake of revenge.

“She’s calling again,” Lupine reminded softly.

Setting her thoughts aside, Charlotte stared at her phone. Just a while ago, the call automatically cut off after ringing for a long time. But now that Sherlyn had called again, Charlotte knew she had no choice but to accept the call.

Charlotte answered, “Hello?”

“Charlotte, where are you?”

From Sherlyn’s tone, Charlotte could tell how the woman was desperately suppressing her anger. Evidently, the former was extremely emotional and couldn’t wait to question Charlotte about what happened.

“What is it?” Charlotte was a sea of calm.

“What’s wrong with you? Louis has been beaten unconscious, and you’re asking me what it is?”

Sherlyn blew her lid immediately. “Charlotte, the only reason I’m still speaking nicely to you is on the account of your brother. Therefore, you had better come home right now and explain to me what happened!”

“I’m sure you already have a rough idea,” Charlotte plainly replied. “Anyway, there’s something I need to do now, so I can’t go over. We’ll talk again once I’m done-”

“Charlotte!” Sherlyn was unable to hold back her rage any longer. She bellowed, “You are about to marry Louis, and yet, you are still involved with your ex-husband. In fact, you even threw yourself at him in the hotel and slept with him. Don’t you have any shame at all?”
