Mistaking a Magnate for a Male Escort chapter 1327
Charlotte’s injured hand hit the sofa, and she sucked in an audible gasp of pain.
Zachary frowned, and there was apparently upset in his eyes, but still, his features were schooled into a cold look.
Charlotte then took her phone and ended the call.
“Be mindful of what you’re doing,” Zachary uttered. “Sir Robert came to my office to look for me earlier today. As for why they were there… I’m sure you know.”
“I do,” Charlotte replied.
The tense atmosphere had no traces of the passionate moment from a while ago.
With an acrid taste on his tongue, Zachary stood up and left.
Charlotte watched as he went. Again, she saw nothing amiss with him. Am I really overthinking it?
No. Something is amiss.
Zachary’s hand was on the handle. Right before he opened it, Charlotte yelled, “Zachary Nacht!”
Zachary halted in his tracks. He did not turn around, but his heart was thumping loudly.
Does she want to keep me here?
“Look down,” Charlotte said as she pointed at his pants. “Are you going to leave like this?”
It was only then Zachary recalled that he had spilled a cup of tea on his pants earlier. It would be an embarrassing moment if he were to walk out immediately. Thus, he called Ben to grab some new clothes for him.
“Take a shower.” Charlotte handed him a bathrobe.
After taking it from her, he went into the bathroom.
Charlotte still had attentive eyes on him. That’s strange. He seems completely fine now.
In the meantime, after Zachary closed the bathroom door, he squinted and looked at himself in the mirror.
Perhaps his optic nerve was pressed on again, for his vision had gone blurry and flickered earlier. That was why he had come up with whatever he could think of while telling the children their bedtime story earlier.
