Chapter 1004
“Serves you right!” Morgan squirmed her lips. “How did you all treat Ms. Lindberg when she was in the Nacht
residence?”
“We respected her.” Marino hurriedly added, “Everyone from the Nacht family revered her as the lady of the
house.”
“Is that so?” Arching her brow, Morgan interrogated, “Who was the one who believed Cynthia's false accusation
and requested the bodyguard to capture Ms. Lindberg? Subsequently, tied her hands and feet up with chains?”
“Err...” Marino faltered. He was not present at that time. However, he did hear people talking about the nasty things
Henry did. It's no wonder the Lindberg family is always antagonistic.
“Hmph! You're one of them. Get lost!” Morgan knocked Marino down with her wheelchair. Then, she went back to
her room.
“Morgan, Morgan...” Marino called out to her and attempted to explain himself, “I wasn't home at that time. I've

Morgan ignored him.
Feeling aggrieved and dejected, Marino went to Zachary.
“Hit a snag?” Zachary was curious.
“I feel so wronged...” Marino shared sadly, “I didn't do anything, but still get scolded.”
Bruce reminded him, “Just go and coax her.”
“There's no need for that,” Zachary warned softly. “We're in the Lindberg residence, and Danrique's spies are
everywhere. If he knows about the two of you, Morgan is doomed.”
“How could I forget something so important?” A look of terror crossed Marino's face. “Oh no, what should I do?”
“She's smarter than you.” Zachary glared at him. “You are such a fool.”
Marino was stunned for a moment. Then, it suddenly dawned on him that Morgan was just putting up a show in
front of others. She knew it all along that Charlotte was held in high esteem by Marino, and that he had nothing to
do with the incident. Most essentially, Morgan was not angry at him.
“You should head back now in order to avoid unnecessary issues,” Zachary ordered.
“Noted.” Immediately, Marino left. He did not want to bring any trouble upon Morgan.
In the room on the third floor, Morgan was standing by the French windows. Her heart was heavy as she watched
Marino leave in his car.
“Don't worry. Even though that dude isn't the sharpest tool in the shed, Mr. Nacht will surely advise him what to do,”
Lupine muttered. “As for you, don't think too much and get some rest.”
“I will.” Morgan sighed. “Mr. Lindberg is known to be ruthless. I'm really worried.”
“Don't keep in touch with him from now on.” Lupine frowned before adding, “There's no problem if he was
someone else, but he works for the Nachts. If Mr. Lindberg ever finds out about you guys, that will be the end of
both of you.”
Lupine meant it as a reminder for herself as well as Morgan.
Anyhow, Lupine and Ben appeared to be more stable compared to Morgan and Marino. After all, the latter pair was
much younger...
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“I know,” Morgan replied in a quavering voice. “I just... miss him so much.”
“I can understand how you feel.” Similarly, Lupine missed Ben too.
“What do you think are the chances of Ms. Lindberg patching things up with Mr. Nacht?” Morgan speculated, “If the
two families are able to reconcile with each other, we don't need to give up on our relationships, right?”
“The chance is very slim.” Lupine sighed. “Then again, it's not totally impossible. I can tell that Ms. Lindberg still has
feelings for Mr. Nacht. On the other hand, Mr. Nacht doesn't seem to want to let go of her either. So, who knows?”
“That's comforting to hear.” Morgan was hopeful.
Lupine was also holding on to the signs of hope that the two rival families would one day bury the hatchet and
reconcile with each other.
“Lupine!” a bodyguard yelled from outside, “Ms. Lindberg is looking for you.”
“I'm coming.” She gave Morgan a pat on her shoulder before leaving.
Upon arriving on the first floor, she noticed that nobody was attending to Zachary. Though it did not matter to her,
she still reminded the maid to do something about it, “Do serve Mr. Nacht some tea. Otherwise, the children will be
upset.”
“Sure.”
