Chapter 1130
The room was suddenly filled with tension.
This was the first time Danrique flared his temper at Charlotte.
All this while, he had only corrected her whenever she made a mistake.
Even in H City, he would make short criticisms of her.
In fact, he had never had so much to say in the last twenty years.
He was one to do things decisively.
If it was anyone else, he would have cast them aside a long time ago.
Only Charlotte had managed to challenge his threshold which he had long tolerated.
However, he was furious when he realized that she was being indecisive.
Therefore, he put his foot down and gave her a final warning.
“The only reason I allowed you to bring the children back to the Lindberg residence is on the account of Aunt
Isabella.” Danrique added, “Or else, given how incompetent you are, I would have kicked you out long ago even if
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtyou're my own sister.”
“I am sorry...”
Other than those three words, Charlotte didn't know what else to say.
“I'll give you three days' time to consider your answer to the Laurent family,” Danrique ordered in an intimidating
manner. “Do you hear me?”
“Yes, I did.” Charlotte nodded.
Collecting his gaze, Danrique dismissed her with a wave.
With than Sean escorted her out.
As they walked down the spiral staircase, Sean muttered softly, “Ms. Lindberg, actually, Mr. Lindberg's actions have
your best interests at heart.”
“Mmm-hmm.” Charlotte nodded dejectedly. “I know. He has tried to find me-”
“Not just that.” Sean looked behind him before leaning over. “He wants you to marry Sir Louis because Lindberg
Corporation is in a crisis. He is worried that you will be dragged along with it...”
“What?” Charlotte was stunned. “What happened?”
“Shh...” Sean raised his finger to his lips to signal her not to alert the others.
“What happened?” Lowering her voice, Charlotte inquired further.
“There are some matters you are better off not knowing.” Sean furrowed his eyebrows and explained, “All this
while, Mr. Lindberg has kept you away from the politics of the company and family because he doesn't want you to
be embroiled in it.
“Over the last two years, he has sent you to manage the businesses overseas and even opened the doors to F
Nation's market for you. Even if the project at H City's South Sea fails, the Gymnasium Project at F Nation can still
continue smoothly.
“If you and Sir Louis get married, that would be for the best. You will have a home, and he will not have to worry
anymore. However, if you're unwilling to do so, he will still have a backup plan for you.
“He is cold and heartless to everyone else other than you, whom he treats as his own sister. Therefore, please don't
disappoint him...”
Charlotte was overwhelmed with emotions when she heard those words. She had always assumed Danrique to be
cold and unpredictable. All she felt for him was fear and respect, and never the familial feelings siblings were
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmsupposed to have.
But now, she knew that Danrique had done a lot for her without her knowledge.
“There's one more thing you need to know,” Sean reminded. “Mr. Lindberg hates Zachary to the core. The next
time he sees him, he might even kill him. Therefore, it's best that you don't allow him to show up in Erihal. Or else,
the consequences will be dire.”
“I understand. Thank you for the advice.” Charlotte was grateful. “With regards to Danrique's problems...”
“If he doesn't want to involve you, you had better stay out of it.” Sean was firm. “Anyway, it's not like you can do
anything about it. So, you're better off minding your own matters.”
“All right.” Charlotte nodded helplessly before leaving.
“Ms. Lindberg,” Sean called out to her sternly.
“Hmm?” Stopping in her tracks, she turned around.
“Do you know that the day Isabella brought Mr. Lindberg back to the Lindberg residence, it was snowing heavily
too? Just like how you brought Robbie back here...”
