Leaving it at that, Sean returned indoors.
After getting into her car, Sean's last sentence echoed through Charlotte's head.
She knew what Sean had meant. Given Danrique's character, he wouldn't have accepted any of the Nacht's children.
However, the moment he saw Robbie, he saw himself in him.
When she arrived today and brought Robbie out of the car, Danrique's gaze was momentarily stunned. It was as if he saw himself when he was ten.
Amidst a similar snowstorm, Isabella had led him out of the car at the exact same spot and brought him back to the Lindberg family.
At that moment, Danrique was overwhelmed with emotions.
Hence, when Robbie messed around in the Lindberg residence, he didn't reprimand him despite seeing through Robbie's ploy.
He was exceptionally accommodating to both Charlotte and her son because of the debt of gratitude he owed Isabella.
Also, he saw himself in Robbie.
Suddenly, Charlotte realized that she had never truly understood Danrique. All she saw was his cold and ruthless side.
She wasn't aware of how much he had done for her.
Furthermore, he wouldn't have done the same for anyone else.
As Charlotte looked out the car window at the grim-looking castle, her heart was overflowing with guilt.
“Mr. Lindberg is especially good to you,” Lupine couldn't help but lament. “You are probably the only person in the world he has a conscience for.”
Lupine's words couldn't be more apt.
Danrique had always been a domineering and ruthless person to everyone else.
