Mistaking a Magnate for a Male Escort chapter 1371
Morgan drove on after Lupine and Charlotte got into the car. “What does Ms. Gold want with Ms. Lindberg?” Morgan asked.
“She declared war,” Lupine said angrily, “She said she and Mr. Nacht were made for each other and that she would do everything she could to win him over.”
Morgan lost it when she heard this. “Is she crazy? Who does she think she is?”
“I know right? I almost lashed out just now. Thank God Ms. Lindberg put her in her place,” Lupine replied, looking at Charlotte, “Good job back there, Ms. Lindberg.”
“Seriously, I should’ve just ram into her car,” Morgan seethed, her grip tightening around the steering wheel. “I’ll teach her a good lesson when I see her.”
“Uh-huh, what are you gonna do to her?” Charlotte said.
“Well, I…” Morgan took a peek at Charlotte and said no more.
“What she did was way better than those devious people who do things behind your back. Do you think I’d survive her ploys if she were to use some underhanded ways?”
“True that…” Lupine said softly.
“She’d be a worse enemy if she had questionable moral.”
Despite what Charlotte said, she still felt threatened.
“She’s always polite and honest in her dealings. This made her a bigger rival.”
“Don’t overthink, Ms. Lindberg. Mr. Nacht put his life on the line just to save you. He loves you a lot. He won’t fall for that woman.”
Charlotte lowered her gaze and kept quiet. She had a lot on her mind.
Sensing her mood, Lupine changed the topic. “How are the kids? Did they throw a tantrum because we didn’t go back yesterday?”
Morgan clicked her tongue upon the question. “Don’t even talk about it. They kept pestering me to read them stories. I read them three stories and yet they refused to let me go. They even made me sleep with them.”
Morgan was in charge of the kids when Charlotte was away. She rambled on and on about the children with Lupine.
Lupine talked to her as she observed Charlotte’s expression.
Charlotte fixed her gaze outside the window as the journey continued. She looked troubled.
Since it was a weekend, all the children were home when they arrived.
Charlotte went over to see Ellie and the three girls before going over to see Robbie and Jamie.
Jamie was studying with Robbie when Charlotte reached home. “Robbie, could you teach me this?”
Robbie would usually clear his doubts patiently, but he was a little testy today. “I thought I explained this to you already?”
Jamie was upset. “You’re so fierce towards me! You don’t have to talk to me like this even if you don’t want to teach me.”
“I’ve already taught you once, but you didn’t understand. This question is so simple. I don’t know why you don’t get it. You’re so dumb.”
“How can you say that?”
Jamie pouted his lips and was on the verge of crying. He opened the door and dashed outside, running right into Charlotte.
He stopped in astonishment when he saw Charlotte and broke down crying.
“Jamie!” Charlotte hugged him and looked at Robbie. “It’s okay. Don’t cry, Jamie. Your sisters are gonna laugh at you if they see you crying.”
“Mommy!” Jamie wailed harder when Charlotte hugged him.
“What happened, Jamie? Come on, stop crying, I’ll bring you something nice for breakfast,” Lupine said.
“Go with Lupine and get some food. I’ll talk to you later, alright?” Charlotte said, passing Jamie to Lupine before going into the room. “Robbie, we need to talk.”
