Chapter 1214
“I'm on my way.” Robert added sternly, “Whatever Zachary does, don't push his buttons. Be patient and make
concessions if you need to until I arrive.”
Sherlyn was frustrated at his advice. “Why are you so scared of him? We're in F Nation.”
He merely retorted, “You've led a sheltered life for far too long, and you're out of touch with the dangers out there.
You need to trust me on this; don't cause more trouble-”
“Okay, okay, I got it,” came Sherlyn's reluctant agreement. “Now hurry up! I'm going to check on Louis.”
After hanging up, she did not immediately visit Louis but instead turned to her subordinates. “Have all our
bodyguards patrol the periphery. If anyone catches Zachary messing around, seize him immediately.”
“Yes, Lady Sherlyn.”
The order did little to soothe Sherlyn's anxiety, and she eventually grabbed a gun from a drawer and hid it beneath
her clothes before visiting her son.

“What's this?”
Morgan was surprised as well, and she sputtered, “Ms. Lindberg, did you and Sir Louis-”
“I don't remember a thing,” Charlotte interrupted as she clutched her forehead in frustration.
She tried her best to recall what happened earlier.
“I remember chatting with Louis after coming back to my room. We argued, and I slapped him so hard that his
nose began bleeding. He got himself cleaned up in the bathroom while I drank some water on the couch. I fell
asleep after that.”
Charlotte had a splitting headache then. “I really don't remember anything after that.”
Morgan said, “Did Sir Louis do something while you-”
She could hardly bring herself to finish her sentence as she became overwhelmed with anger.
“That jerk! And here I thought he was a real gentleman! I can't believe he's so dishonorable! I'm going to kill him!”
Morgan made to leave the room, huffing with anger, when Lupine pulled her back. “What are you doing? Nothing's
confirmed yet, and you're rushing about like some headless chicken. Get a grip!”
“But Sir Louis took advantage of Ms. Lindberg.”
Lupine repeated herself, “We need to clarify things before jumping to conclusions.”
“Aren't things clear enough already? The proof is right in front of you!”
“You've literally considered one possibility.”
“I-”
“Enough! Please stop fighting,” Charlotte pleaded as their argument worsened her headache.
“Sorry,” the two of them said in unison, lowering their heads in shame.
Charlotte tried her best to consider the situation logically. “Louis wouldn't do something like this. The key to solving
this puzzle is my memory loss. My gut instinct tells me that nothing happened between us. But if that's the case,
where did these marks on my body come from, then?”
“Something's fishy about this whole situation.” After some thought, Lupine continued, “I'll check things out; we
might be missing something.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmCharlotte's heart skipped a beat as a face suddenly came to mind. “He saw it!”
Lupine immediately understood who she meant. “I didn't expect Mr. Nacht to show up at this time. You won't be
able to play dumb about this now.”
“Mr. Nacht's got a temper, though. I have no idea what he'll do next.” Morgan sounded worried as well.
Charlotte's mind drifted to her kids. She addressed Lupine, “You should leave to keep an eye on the children. Don't
let them know about this. Bring Jamie, Robbie, and Ellie to the pasture; you can bring Danrique's children along. Tell
them that Mommy and Daddy have some things to discuss and will pick them up a bit later.”
“I'm on it.” Right before Lupine left, she turned to Morgan and said, “Stay here and accompany Ms. Lindberg. Make
sure she's okay.”
“Got it.”
Lupine bumped into Diana the moment she left Charlotte's room.
Diana was heading to Louis' bedroom with a steaming bowl of chicken soup.
The sight suddenly reminded Lupine of the two glasses of water from last night. Maybe something's wrong with the
water.
She immediately ordered Jade to track down the drinking glasses from last night and send them for analysis.
Jade got to work at once.
