Mistaking a Magnate for a Male Escort chapter 1397
Charlotte returned Cain’s phone to him, then led Jade and Emma into the ward to take care of Lupine.
Despite the numerous questions she had in her mind, she did not persist with her questioning.
After all, Cain and Kyle did not know much, so it was pointless to ask since she would not get an answer.
Moreover, Lupine was still in the emergency room. Her life could still be in danger, so Charlotte was in no mood to
be jealous.
It was best to settle the problems she was facing at the moment. As for others, she would deal with it at a later
time.
A restless night passed.
When Ben returned in the morning, his face was a mask of fatigue. On the bright side, he had settled everything

To ensure Lupine’s safety on their way back, Ben had hired a few doctors and medical staff to accompany them.
With everything set and ready to go, they took the private jet back to H City at nine-thirty in the morning.
On the plane, Charlotte and Ben stayed by Lupine’s side.
“I’m glad that she’s fine,” said Charlotte as she gently wiped Lupine’s face with a warm towel.
“Ms. Lindberg, I have something important I need to discuss with you,” Ben said softly.
“Shoot.” Charlotte lifted her gaze from Lupine to focus on him.
He pondered briefly then said straightforwardly, “Firstly, I have Sir Louis and his subordinates in my hands. I have
arranged for them to be taken back to H City for Mr. Nacht to deal with.”
Charlotte was surprised. The previous day was chaotic, and with Lupine getting shot, she was too restless to think
about other things.
She thought Ben was busy cooperating with the police, but instead, he went to catch Louis and the assassins.
As expected of Zachary’s right-hand man.
“I figured I should inform you on this.”
Ben’s gaze was on Lupine as he spoke.
“Personally, as a man, I had to take revenge on them for daring to threaten you with Lupine and the others’ lives
and even shooting Lupine. Professionally, I received orders from Mr. Nacht to rescue you, so I should catch
everyone involved and let him deal with them. It’s also to avoid any further mishap. However, since Louis was
once… your fiancé, out of respect, I had to inform you.”
“Ben, firstly, I’m very gratified to hear you say that.” There was admiration in Charlotte’s gaze. “As a man, you
shoulder your responsibility well and treat Lupine with much loyalty and affection. I feel at ease to give her hand to
you. But there’s one thing I need to clarify. Louis was my fiancé indeed, but that was in name only. Besides, with
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmeverything that had happened afterward, we had separated—”
“Wait a minute,” Ben interrupted in astonishment, “you’re saying him being your fiancé was in name only? T-Then
that time when you were in the manor in Arkfield, you and him—”
Charlotte did not elaborate. “That was a misunderstanding. I will leave out the distasteful details. All in all, I never
had a romantic relationship with him from the start till the end.
“I didn’t have the heart to finish him off because I felt that this tragedy happened because of me. If it wasn’t for me
agreeing to his proposal for my selfish reasons, he might not have ended up like this.
“But just because I feel sorry for him, it doesn’t mean that he can do whatever he likes. Therefore, I do not have
any objections to you catching him and his assassins. However, the mastermind behind the entire incident is Sir
Robert.
“It has nothing to do with Louis, so catching him is pointless. If something happens, I fear it will cause trouble to you
and Zachary, so I suggest you hand him over to me once we arrive at H City. Let me negotiate with Sir Robert.”q
