Chapter 1277

“But...”

“No buts. It's decided,” insisted Charlotte to cut Gordon's words short. After that, she instructed, “Once we land, you will take all seven of your men back to Erihal. Call me as soon as you learn anything.”

“I'll leave after I helped settle you and the kids down. You gave up custody of your kids just to protect Mr. Lindberg's children, so I can't ignore your wellbeing,” offered Gordon who was still worried.

“I am not that nice,” replied Charlotte while grinning, “It's just that given the current situation, my kids are safer with Zachary than they are with me. Hence, I am also doing all this for their sake.”

“But if it hasn't been for us, you could've gone back to the Nacht family. It would be safer for you, and you'd get to reunite with your kids.”

Gordon could see things clearly. The truth was that Charlotte was sacrificing herself to protect all three of Danrique's children. In a way, history was repeating itself. Charlotte was protecting the kids, just as her mother had protected Danrique all those years ago.

“Oh, stop being dilly-dallying already and man up,” said Charlotte. She changed the topic and ordered, “The sun is rising. You should go rest up now. We have a busy day ahead after we landed.”

“Okay,” said Gordon. He stood up and bowed politely to Charlotte before returning to his seat.

Charlotte looked out the window and stared at the clouds. A complex emotion gnawed at her. Who would've thought that after all the twists and turns, I'd return to where it all began?

“Don't worry, Ms. Lindberg. The trouble will pass, and you are no longer the person you used to be. We can rise back up to the top once this is all over,” said Lupine while serving Charlotte a cup of warm tea.

“Rise back up to the top?” murmured Charlotte before an exasperated and bitter smile crept up on her lips, “That's true. The assets and resources Danrique left me would allow me to rise back to the top, but...”

Charlotte tilted her head down and stared at the cup of warm tea she had with her. In a voice thick with tears, she added, “I'd rather give it all up just to have Danrique back.”

In the past, all Charlotte ever felt for Danrique were respect, fear, and appreciation. There was no love whatsoever.

That was why all she could think about was his cruelty and his ambition when she first got reunited with her kids. Charlotte was certain that Danrique couldn't understand the love between a parent and a child.
