Mistaking a Magnate for a Male Escort novel Chapter 45

When Charlotte felt the animosity, she grew inexplicably anxious. 

“Mr. Sterling, are you alright?” Zachary strolled over casually.

Behind him, Ben has instructed the bodyguards to investigate how it happened.“I’m fine, it’s just a scratch.’

Despite sweating profusely, Hector maintained his composure with a faint smile.

“I’m impressed that you have rescued a damsel in distress.” Zachary smiled. “Although she isn’t much of a beauty, I have to thank you on her behalf as her employer.”

Charlotte furrowed her eyebrows as she felt strange hearing what Zachary said.

“Please don’t say that. It’s nothing at all.” Hector glanced at Charlotte before saying to Zachary, “I was just looking for you. Are you…”“I’ve something on so I’m heading out.” Zachary was polite but aloof. “Sorry for wasting your time.”

“Erm…” Hector froze briefly before replying with a smile. “No worries. I’ll come again when you’re free…”

“Mmm-hmm,” Zachary grunted in acknowledgment before getting into his car.

Hector stood still, feeling extremely awkward.

Owen asked softly, “Didn’t you have an appointment with him?”

“Ignore him, he always behaves this way.” When Charlotte saw how Hector was treated, she felt bad for him. “Let’s go to the hospital…”

“Mr. Sterling!” At that moment, Ben came cover and politely explained, “Mr. Nacht has an urgent matter to attend to today. Shall we make another appointment for next time?”

“Sure, I’ll let you know.” Hector nodded with a smile.

“Are you injured? I’ll have someone send you to the hospital.”

Ben waved for the bodyguards to come.

“I’m fine. I’ll manage this myself.” Hector replied politely. “You should go on. Mr. Nacht must be waiting for you.

“In that case…”

“Mr. Ben,” Charlotte used the opportunity to ask Ben, “Mr. Sterling was injured trying to save me. I’ll like to send him to the hospital, is that alright?”

“Erm…” Ben turned to look at Zachary before nodding. “Sure!”

“Thank you.” Charlotte immediately supported Hector.
