Mistaking a Magnate for a Male Escort novel Chapter 57

Hearing those words, Charlotte lowered her gaze to look at the chip in her hands. In a daze, she mumbled, “The chip is with me. Why are they…Do they…”

“That horrible man threw Fifi’s egg into the sea, so what they’re looking for in the sea right now is a parrot egg!” Mrs. Berry concluded excitedly. “Miss, I’m right, am I not?”

“Yes.” Charlotte watched the screen, speechless, as officers and men from Divine Corporation sent divers and submarines to look for the chip.

Will they explode when they found out the chip is still with me, and the thing they’re looking for with much effort is a parrot egg?

An image of the Devil losing his temper emerged in her mind, and a chill ran down Charlotte’s spine.

“Miss, what do we do now? Do we still call the cops?” Mrs. Berry anxiously inquired.

“Let me think for a bit.”

Charlotte patted her chest in an attempt to calm down her racing heart and collect her thoughts.

“Firstly, it seems like that man in black has found out he didn’t steal the chip. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have said that. Secondly, since Divine Corporation is spending much of their resources searching for the chip in the sea and involving the police, it means they think the chip is really in the sea. In other words, they have no idea the chip is with me.”

She paused before continuing, “Even if that man has already found out about the chip, he’s been caught. He won’t tell them about it because he wants to make it difficult for them.”

 

At that thought, Charlotte’s panicking heart calmed down, and her knitted brows relaxed. She raised her head and announced, “I’ve decided not to call the cops.”

“Huh? Why not?” Mrs. Berry queried.

“Because I’m working in Divine Corporation now,” Charlotte explained. “If I call the cops, they might think I’m the thief. I might lose my job or even face worse consequences.”

“I understand,” Mrs. Berry muttered. “Miss, no matter what you do, I support you.”

“Although I won’t be calling the cops, I have to give this chip back to them.”
