Robert was trying to milk the situation to the fullest. Now that they had lost the pillar in the family, Robert wanted to

corner her into desperation. After all, to him, she was just a woman with a bunch of kids, protected only by a group

of female bodyguards.

Charlotte would have readily retaliated if she were younger, but things had changed.

Lindberg Corporation was in a mess, they still had no news of Danrique, and she still had to protect the children. If

she threw herself into the eye of the storm right now, it would only mean more trouble for her.

She just could not risk the lives of the children.

Besides, she really did not want to perpetuate the fight with the Laurent family. After all, she felt guilty toward Louis,

yet there was a morsel of truth in Zachary’s words.

There would be no coming back if she were to exit the playing field now.

If Danrique ever wanted to make a comeback, all would be lost by then.

Back when she put her stakes in the project, she did it under Lindberg Corporation’s name.

If she allowed people to remove her from the project now, it would be bad publicity for the company. The media

would not let go of this opportunity to mar Lindberg Corporation’s reputation.

Danrique was still missing and no one knew what happened to him. There were already a lot of rumors circulating

around about him. She could not just add fuel to the fire.

“What do you think I should do?” Charlotte finally spoke.

“This is a no-brainer,” Zachary replied, “They won’t get what they want as long as I refuse to sign the document.”

Speaking, he moved closer to Charlotte and whispered in her ears, “You just need to make me happy and I’ll give

you whatever you want.”

“What do you mean, huh? I’m not that desperate!”

Zachary raised his brows in disbelief. “Wow, that’s a lot of double standard coming from you. I wonder who is the

desperate person who made me work for two months at Sultry Night.”

Charlotte was at a loss for words.

“You shouldn’t let your ego get the better of you. You need to learn to back down when necessary,” Zachary

advised patiently, “Besides, we’re a family. I don’t want anything bad to happen to my family.”

“You underestimated me. I can solve this on my own without your help.”

“Is that so?” Zachary questioned, “I’m looking forward to it then.”

Charlotte glared at him without speaking any further and whipped her head toward the window, looking at the view.

Zachary looked at her and smiled contentedly.

Three hours elapsed and they finally reached Dr. Felch’s place.

After Dr. Felch returned to H City, he found a quiet place to stay. When his student found out that Dr. Felch was

looking for a place to stay, he gladly cleaned up this space for Dr. Felch since he was working in the city and the

house was vacant.

Hayley eyed the car vigilantly as Ben drove in, but when she saw it was Charlotte, a bright smile lit up her face.

“Charlotte!”

“Hayley!” Charlotte ran out and gave her a big hug. “How is everybody?”

“We’re good,” Hayley replied with a transient smile, “It’s just that Dr. Felch is not feeling very well. He’s been on

medication for some time, but his condition is not getting any better. He’s been under the weather these few days.”

“What happened?” Charlotte was worried getting the update. “Why didn’t you tell me?”

“Dr. Felch asked us not to tell you anything,” Hayley explained, “He misses you dearly. Hurry up and go see him.”

“Sure.” Charlotte ran into the house with Lupine following her behind.

Zachary did not go in but stood beside the car, smoking.

Hayley got them some drinks and went back into the house.
