Mistaking a Magnate for a Male Escort novel Chapter 75

“Ms. Windt…”

Raina’s voice startled Charlotte out of her reverie. When she finally snapped out of her daze, Raina and her medical assistant had appeared in front of her.

When she spotted the deep red mark on Charlotte’s face, the woman frowned and asked immediately, “What happened to your face? Who did that to you?”

The medical assistant who had tagged along let out a gasp of horror as well. “Look! Ms. Windt’s arm is bleeding, too.”

“Come on, let’s get into the car first.” Raina helped Charlotte into the vehicle.

When they got into the car, the former helped her to remove the tiny shards of glass that had been lodged in her hands. In a quiet voice, she told Charlotte, “Ms. Windt, Mr. Nacht has put us at your disposal. If you need anything done, we’re the ones for the job!”

Her words held a deeper meaning to them. The moment the words fell from Charlotte’s mouth, Raina would be ready to go up against everyone who ever bullied her.

Charlotte felt a little surprised. She was merely a lowly security guard at Divine Corporation. Why does Zachary insist on treating me so well?

Does he really have a secret crush on me?

“Ms. Windt, don’t be discouraged by the power the Sterlings wield. Mr. Nacht’s influence far exceeds theirs. You do not need to fear,” Raina added reassuringly.

 

“Thank you,” Charlotte said, speaking up for the first time, “but I think I’ll settle this matter by myself.”

She didn’t want to get someone else involved, particularly when he was never part of the issue, to begin with. After all, that would simply be another debt she would need to pay off.

“Alright then…”

The family doctor didn’t say anything else. However, as she looked at the injuries on Charlotte’s face, her expression was extremely serious.

It was just as she had feared…

Raina reported everything that had happened that night to Zachary, whose face turned black with fury when he heard about it. His eyes, which were as deep as the ocean, had a steely glint to it that the woman hardly ever saw.

He rounded on Raina and her medical assistant. “What the hell were the two of you thinking? I told you to stay by her side. How could you allow her to be bullied?”

“Yes, it was my fault.” Raina bowed her head and didn’t say anything else.

“There must have been a reason why Ms. Windt didn’t let them into the house with her,” Bruce guessed. “Does she have a family secret that she doesn’t want others to know, perhaps?”

“Should we investigate it further?” Ben asked carefully.

“There’s no need for that,” Zachary ordered, putting down the wine glass in his hands. “Tell Hector Sterling to show up as an invited guest at the charity gala in three days!”
