Zachary did not sound like he was making a request. It sounded more like an order.
Usually, Charlotte would put up a fight and disagree with him, but this time, she just nodded and caved. “Yes. I will take care of you.”
“Good.”
Zachary pulled her into his embrace and dozed off peacefully.
I should’ve known this is the easiest way to bring her back to me…
Charlotte snuggled in his arms without moving, listening to his heartbeat. His heartbeat sounds normal. I think he’s healthy. I’m probably thinking too much.
She could finally shake the worry off.
Over at the door, Ben stopped Lupine just before she knocked on the door.
“What are you doing? I’m sending Ms. Lindberg breakfast.”
“I don’t think she wants any breakfast now,” Ben replied, moving aside and tilting his head, signaling at Lupine to look at the couple herself.
Lupine cocked her head and stood frozen.
Zachary and Charlotte were resting together in the bed, just like how couples in love usually did.
It seemed like they really did not need to eat anything.
“Just leave them be.”
Ben pulled Lupine away and gestured at the subordinates to stay outside.
“I should be happy for them, but I don’t know why I feel so unsettled,” Lupine said.
“Why?” Ben was curious. “I’ve been hoping for this day all this while. Didn’t you say you wanted them to get back together as well?”
